GRAPE CULTURE
IN NORTHERN
NEW MEXICO.
Santa Fe. Feb.22. 1905
Frank Dibert Esq.
Treasurer Santa Fe Central Ry.,
City.
Dear sir:


Dear sir
promised, by request, to
write for publication, a short sketch of nv
personal experience with grape culture in
northern New Mexico, which has proved
a complete success after a trial of some
years, and now proceed to do so.
The varieties of grapes cultivated up to
this time in New Mexico all belonged to
the European family of this vinous berry,
name in Botany the wits vinifera;" the
principal one being the so-caIled Mission
grape, which was brought over from
Spain at an early dav bv Missionaries.
The exact date of its introduction in our
Territory is unknown, but it was un-
doubted cultivated in New Ne xico long
before it was planted in California, where
the early gold seekers, many of them
Europeans, familiar with the culture of the
grape, saw it growing in tile Missions of
the Franciscan fathers, and knowing no
other name for it, simply spoke ofit as the
Mission grape" an appeIation unknown
to the Spanish natil es Of the country who
call it ''la iva del pals, 1.-THE grape of the
country.
1t is probably the same sort from which
the Port and Sherry vines are made
in Spain and Portugal, and manufacture
ed'' in California, for the reader should be
told that all the sweet wines from the
State of the Golden Horn, some of which
have never seen California, are doctored
and fortified, by the addition of sugar and
aIchooI, technical terms used in trade to de.
note Winesthat have undergone this kin d
of manipulation.
The Mission Grape, having originated
in warm climate, is deficient in two es-
sential requisites for its successful culture
in northern New Mexico. first hardi-
ness,-its vines, many winters, lik
for instance thepresent one, freeze down
to the ground, unless banked and covered
with earth in the fall, before hard frost,
and second. it is a late maturing kind and
does not get ripe here. Even at lower
attitudes, in the Rio Grande Valley, as
tar down as Sccorro, there is not the re

a Philloera Vastartrix, which is almost
certain to occur sooner or later.
This species of the grape family, of
which hundreds of varieties are grown in
Europe, where it has been known and its
wine and fruit used for several thousand
years by the Greeks, Romans, IEerians
and other southern nations on that conti-
nent as well as by the Egytians and Jews,
is no longer found growing wild there, if
iteVer did, AM is suppose to have come
originally from the regions of the Caucas-
US, where it is seen running up to the tops
Of the tall trees of the great virgin for
ests that are met in these Alpine fastness-
eS; stIluntouched by the all eveIing of
modern progress and civilation
would remark cen passant" that in
the idiomS of wine growing countries as
well as in Scriptural parIance, the express
ed juice of the grape, before fermentation
is called must; and that it is only after the
termenting process has transformed its
glucose, or grape sugar, into alcohol that
it becomes wine.
AS early as the latter part of the 18th
century attempts were made in different
parts of the British North American col.
onies, and more particularly in the south
to cultivate the grape, and plant vineyards
with vines brought from Europe.
One of the first, and perhaps the most
noted among these experimental trials of
which arecord remains, was made by vii!
lam Penn, who about the year 1853 under.
took to establish and plant extensive
vineyards in the neighborhood of PhiIad-
elphia. Penn, although a Quaker, was an
English Admiral, and a gentleman bred
and born, and no doubt appreciated a good

Squire Orrick's Hard Luck

Squire Orrick of Silsbee is surely playing in hard luck. About two months ago his farm was flooded and he was driven out onto higher land He camped at Silsbee and in the neighborhood till the fore part of last week when he fixed up his prairie schooner, gathered up his goods and chattels and hied him to Brawley in hopes to cross New river at that place and proceed on his journey to San Di- ego, where the wicked flea and the be. After working for five days ill the ferry boat in an endeavor to get it in shape to cross the river, he was com pelled to watch his efforts fail and see the boat swept away.
 He then returned to Silsbee and pre- pared to pitch his camp again and await a more favorable time for cross ing New river. Last Monday while temporarily absent his wagon caught fire in some mysterious manner and was almost entirely consumed. Being loaded with his household goods, bed ding, trunks, clothing and personal effects the result of the fire was almost as disasterous as if his house had burn ed. There does not seem to be any satisfactory manner of accounting for the origin of the fire. Parties at work in plain sight of the wagon saw no one go near it at any time during the day, and MT. Orrick does not think there were any loose matches in the wagon that might have been ignited by the suns rays. The wagon and contents and the harness were total loss.
 Mir. and Mrs. Orrick are among the most highly respected residents of the Silsben neighborhood and the entire community sym pathize with them in their loss.

The prompt action of the State Department in getting after Mexico for imprisoning the American citizen at MeXicali,
 quickly bore fruit. The tele- gram to Secretary Root was sent .ast Monday at noon, a reply was received at II o'clock Tuesday that Minister Couger at the city of Mexico had been ordered to investigate the case. On Wednes- day the MeXicans got i'll and gave that box car jail such a cleaning out and scrubbing as 1t hadn't had for d year, and clean- ed up the prisoner spick and span. Then they got Dr. Griffith over from CaleXico to see how we'll the prisoner fared and how nicely he was cared for. We understand the doctor thinks the man could now stand 1t to be hauled to Ensenada for trial. As the complaining witness has long since withdrawn his charge and made all affidavit that the charges were unfounded, we fail to see anything to try the man fot. Unless Mexican jurisprudence is a riddle that can't be guessed, the only effect of a trial would be to release the prisoner for the want of prosecution. We notice MT. A. F. Andrade, the Mexican deputy consul at Los Angeles, in town this week, and 1t is plain to be seen that the animals" are considerably stirred up. They have got the great Uncle Sam after them and 1t Is we'll for them to realize that there Is the love of liberty in the hearts of our people and that the govern ment at Washington still lives.

MISDIRECTED LIBERALITY

gunboat Bennington i'll San Dl- ego harbor has caused thrill of horror to go through the Amer ican peopll. The awful scenes, the maimed, wounded and dying sailors, the fearfully wrecked boat and the shocking carnage of the whole accident has wrung the hearts of the American peo- p1e as few calamities have in recent times. Such accidents call for the exhibition of all that is noble in man.
 Those whose part 1t is to go to the rescue, minister to the wants and attend the dying bed of the victims of such a disaster naturally feel that such sacrifice as they can make, should be made and made cheerfully. We were therefore not surprised to read in our San Diego exchanges during the week that there was a move among the physicians, surgeons, nurses, hospitals, liverymen, undertakers and all those who had part in assisting the living, caring for the woun- ded and burying the dead from the i'll fated Bennington, to donate to the United States all claims for payment for such services. We rejoice to see this exhibition of the spirit of sacri- flee on the part of the people of San Diego. During life they extended every help in their power to these stricken officers and men, and now ill death they want still to send their gifts after them into the grave. The spirit exhibited by the San Di- egans Is admirable and comment dable, but the PRESS cannot refrain from expressing the thought that the plan to donate to the United States the claims for payment for services render- ed i'll this connection is mis- directed liberality. The act does not express the sentiment back of the deed. The wish of tlle San Diego people is to ex- press sorrow for the dead and sympathy fur the living. Their sympathy goes out first to the mothers, sisters, fathers, broth CTS, relatives, sweethearts and friends of the poor stricken boys of the Bennington. Their wish, therefore, is to render them such service as they may.
 The only thing they can do now for the sorrowing relatives and friends of the poor, dead boys, is to send them the bodies of their loved ones that they may tenderly lay away the poor broken clay in hallowed ground ill their own church-yard. What a noble thing it would be to send these boys to their own, and let them be inferred by loving hands there te rest, hero grave in the country graveyard. In this way their death would be remembered and their sacrifice appeal to the great patriotic heart of our peo- ole forever. It is such mean ending,for these heroes to think of them as shoveled into one long trench on wind swept Point Loma, unmarked, unidentified, there 10 sleep the long sleep, unhonored and forgotten.
 The United States has plenty of money with which to pay for the servicesrendered these boys. The United States also has regn- lationswhich fail to provide for < ending their bodies. to their loved ones. Let the people of San Diego, who have claims for services rendered in connection : with the Bennington disaster, collect the uttermoSt farthing. Then let them forward the bodies !, of the hero dead to those who loved them iu life, and whose hearts are wrung with anguish

THE AGE OF STARS.
Color Aids the Astronomer In MaI1-
ing His Calculations

AS star contracts from the sur.
rounding nebulous matter from which
it was thrown off it's temperature rises.
and with this augmented heat occurs a
change both in the stars spectrum and
color. Redhot iron is not nearly so hot
as white hot iron. By observing the va
rious changes in tint which the metal
undergoes the foundryman is able to
tell with considerable accuracy it's de-
gree OF heat. A somewhat similar
method of gauging a stars temperature
and therefore it's age, is relied upon by
the astronomer. Color, then, and spec
trOscopic analysis enable the astrono-
mer to estimate the age of orbs that
are only beginning to exist as stars
and others whose light is fast fading.
After having coagulated, as it were,
from a nebulous mass, a star assumes
color that may be best described as
an intense BLUSH white, much like that
or the electric arc. Stars of that hue
are, therefore, in their infancy Then
comes the white stage, followed by the
yellow, orange and red each succeed
ing hue indicating greater celestial an
tlquity than the last. Up to the yellow
period the star as it contracts grows
hotter and hotter Then a gradual cool
ing takes place. Accompanying the
changes in color are changes in the
spectrum of the star-changes that in
dictate modification in physical struc-
ture. In the BLUSH white period of
stars infancy the characteristic wide
lines of hydrogen gas predominant in
the spectrum. AS the color changes,
the lines Of calcium, magnesium and
iron appear, the hydrogen lines gradu-
ally becoming thinner and those of
calcium broader. - Booklovers Maya

SIAM.

The worth thing that can happen to
man in Siam is to get into debt, from
which there is never any escape, owing
to the eXorbitant interest charged.
Once in debt there is no appeal, the
debtor being stripped of his clothes and
compelled to work in letters, generally
for the rest Of his life, to pay the inter
est. Drunkards are not permitted to
give evidence in the law courts Of
Siam. The Buddhist priests, clad in
yellow robes, are to be seen every
where in Bangkok, and it is quite COM
mon for young men to enter the priest
hood, which affords them an easy and
luxurious. existence, owing to the lib
erality Of the populace toward any one
sanctioned to the service of Buddha.

The first step toward the formation
Of the postal union, which has had
such wide results, came from Ger
many in the shape of proposal for an
international postal congress. This met
at Berne in 1873, when twenty-five
countries joined the union, including
the whole Of Europe. \ second con-
gress met in Paris in 1878, when ten
other countries came in, and the Off
cial title, international Postal Union,'
was definitely fixed. It's sphere was
further enlarged at congresses at Lis
bon in 1885 and at Vienna in 1891.
