was a member of the Ninety-third

try. In the battle of Chickamauga,
just at dark on Saturday, the 10Th Of
September, 1868, my leg was broken
by musket ball sent out by the
J0hnnies I'm our front. This occurred
IL the woods about half a mile to the
west Of Jays Mill, and we were falling
back at the time. Soon after our lines
had fallen back the Confederates es-
tablished their pickets for the night. A
squad (ive, If I remember correctly

promptly and assisted me as gently as

men, first taking off my wooden blan-
ket and spreading it down for me to
lie on. placing my cartridge box under
my head for a pillow and spreading
my oilcloth over me.
The tenderness with which they had
lifted me touched me, and I said:
Boys, an hour or two ago we were
engaged in shooting each other, and
now you are treating me with the
greatest kindness. hardly know how
to thank you for it in return" The
only reply they made was: "Well, old
fellow, we are doing to you only as
we should like to be done by. 1t may
come our turn next" and they passed
on to the front picket line for the
night. l was suffering so at the time
that / did not notice all the little de-
tails connected with this visit of the
Johnnies that night; but the next
morning, when 1 awoke from a half
feverish. dreamy sleep, found that
one Of them had spread half Of a
homemade calico quilt over me, saying
nothing about it, and doubtless keep

nightlong watch on picket post. Was
there ever a more beautiful type of
chivalry and Christian charity than
this? This incident grows brighter to
me as the years go by. God bless you,
boys, wherever you may be! 1 would
love to have you for my neighbors.

The quantity Of lime required in

Every bit of poor butter sold by the
farmer is bought up, worked over and
renovated and sold at the highest
price. Why don't you make good but
ter in the first place and get 30 cents
pound for it instead of 10 or Il
cents?
Some COWS give large flows of milk
Immediately after calving, but do not
keep it up very long and often go dry
in five or six months and produce
comparatively little butter fat; while
others give only medium flow of
milk when fresh, but keep it up for
ten months and produce over 800
pounds Of butte, a year.
Better stock and more of it Is what
you hear most about when you visit
the South. People in that section are
| awakening to the necessity existing
for better grade of stock. Breed
vestigate the opportunities of the
South and see what could be done
along the line OF finding a market for
good share OF their surplus. 1t will
prove a profitable venture to the
breeder who gets in on the ground
| floor.
A successful poultry keeper once
received a letter from man who
thought he would like to learn how to
run farm. This man wrote: Il
could do the light work and the heavy
thinking for you" The answer that
went back by the next mail was:
'There is no light work on this farm,
and 1 am capable Of doing the heavy
thinking myselfr' The suggestion
| from this man will illustrate the way
some people regard farming. They
have an idea that farmer needs
some On to think for him, and that
this thinking" can be done by an out
slider who never did farm work. How
absurd such q thing would be in con-
nection with any other branch of bust
ness-and good farming requires more
planning and hard thinking than any
other trade. As for this hunt for
slight work" why cannot people see
that only the hardest and most pains
taking toll fits a man to really think
| hard?

DESERVES REWARD.

The Record today publishes the
greater part of a article taken from
the Santa Fee New Mexican of Aug
ust 5th, in which the New Mexico
Military Institute is given n of the
most extensive ~write-ups it has eve
received. The article in the New Mex
lear was Illustrated with several half
tone cuts, and covered nearly two
pages of the paper. Nothing was
charged for the publication, n be-
sides thai over one thousand extra
copies of thai issue of the New Next
can were sen out as sample copies
to eastern and northern people who
have shown themselves interested in
New Mexico and its educational IA
c~ilities.
The New Mexican is always saying
something good about Roswell n
the Pecos Valley. Although it is a
Republican paper. the Record has no
hesitation in saying that it deserves
many subscribers from this section
of the Territory. 1t is the only daily
paper published at the capital of the
Territory, and naturally publishes
official news of all kinds ahead of
other papers. 1t more nearly repre-
sents the present administration han
any other paper in the Territory, and
in order to be posted on the views of
the present administration, the New
Mexican must be read by Democrats
as well as Republicans. The Record
believes that the best way to learn
h views of any party is to go to
its strongest advocates, and not to
the papers that are engaged in a
fight against their own party.
Blu aside from politics, the New
Mexican devotes more space than any
other paper to the of New
Mexico in general, and it's editor be
ing secretary of the immigration bu-
reau, is really more of a booster han
a politician anyway, and on his edi-
torial page he prints half a dozen
articles boosting the Sunshine Terri
tory to one political editorial. He al.
SO sees to it that copies of his paper
go to people who write for informa-
ton about the country. This is done
to boom the circulation of the PAGER, |
Of course but when the paper sent
happens to contain an article like The
one On h Military Institute Roswell
gets a part of the benefit. and the
wider the circulation of the New Mex
lean the better for us.
The New Mexican is the oldest pa
per in the Territory, and being the |
only daily published at the capital,
is the most widely known and sought
by outsiders for information in re-
gard to the Territory in general. 1t

HEADED TOWARD ROSWELL.
Grafters Have Been Busy at Amarillo,
and May Come Here.

The following article from the Am.
arirlo Herald should be taken a. a
warning by Roswell people. as this
will probably be the next stop of the
fellows who worked that city this
week:
Amarillo was always a good town
for the CRATER, and in proof of the
matter, three different sets of men
have been diligently wepxing the town
the past week, n meeting with fair
success, it should be noted.
THE first of the trinity was a shirt
salesman" who took orders for "tai
lor made" shirts, charging a round
price for a garment that could be got
ten anywhere in town for a dollar,
and then have some one to get at
ter IL the shirt went wrong. This gen.
tleman carried his little stock of
samples and collected for his goods
in advance, which is another indica-
ton that the people of Amarillo are
hungry to be humbugged. The shirts
may come, /" is to be hoped that they
will.
"The next to cheerily work his
scheme was an advertising CRATER,
whose scheme was a blotting pad,
covered with the cards Of business
men. AS a means of advertising the
graft was absolutely worthless, but
many of our business men went ag-
ainst it like a colored person goes
against a watermelon. The mana
ger Of the proposition was successful
In convincing many of the bes bust
ness men in town, who are usually
up to skin games, that it would great
ly help them to have their names on
the blotter on Jones' desk, and that
Jones would not turn the blank side
Of the blotter up. OF many bare faced
touches, this was a little bit the
most bare, and Of least value to the
patron.
LAS a result bringer, the "directo-
ry" is not any better han the blotter
scheme. The average business man
knows where the other fellow does
business, who he is and what there
is worth remembering about him,
and the printed business directory"
would be consulted neither by him
nor by the general public. 1t is simply
q scheme to separate the merchant
from his money, and with none of the
redeeming features of the local al
vertising snaplets, which are at least
calculated to support home institu-
tons, and home people, who spend
their money in Amarillo, and are not
here to touch whom they may and
be gone tomorrow.
at does seem that after a while
Amarillo would freeze up on those
foreign grafters. The Perfect Pan
try" incident would seem to be a gra-
phic and everlasting testimonial az
to the value of letting the strangers
game alone but judging from the
present outlook, it had no effect what,
ever"
