Of course every husband and wife
know their duty towards each other,
but still they grow a little negligent
sometimes and very often few words
will cause them to be more thoughtful
and press them to their duty again.
They should always try to be agree
able, and, if one should become little
cross over some little thing that has
not gone just as wished, let the other
be smiling and cheerful. Never both
be angry at the same time.
Wife, when the husband comes in
from his work tired, always meet him
with smile, have the house neat and
tidy, everything in its place, have his
meals on time and something he may
relish to eat, for work gives a man an
appetite, and they do not like to come
in and wait for meal when they are
hungry.
Husband if you come in and find
things different from the way you
would have them to be, do not become
cross and snap around about everything,
and if you should be so cruel as to do
such a thing, when you overcome your
passion go to the dearest of all things
(the wife) and confess you have done
wrong. By so doing you will, heal the
wound that was so painful to her. y
Man should not expect too much of
the wife. He must remember she is
too frail being to battle with all the
hardships of this world. There are
many ways in which the husband may
be of Lelp to the wife, and we think he
should try to help in all; also we think
the wife should help the husband in any
way her health will allow, trying to
grant all his wi. hes. Some of them
may seem unreasonable at first, but
we know the wishes of a true devoted
husband will prove for the best.

Tobacco growers may be glad to
learn of preventive for ''house burn"
tobacco, so prevalent this season and
and which will also stop same after it
has been started. BY burning charcoal
in small holes or pits in the ground
in several places in the barn, especially
in the center where it usually burns
most, or by using an old furnace and
moving same around from place to
place, it will entirely prevent the burn.
Care should be used to prevent smoke,
and do not, under any circumstances,
use wood.

eLleA, NEW MEXICO.

Editor of the News
We came to New Mexico four week!
ago, and are very much pleased will
the climate and country in general.
The surface is mostly level, the sol
being from 8 to feet deep. Good wa.
ter can be found from 80 to 12O feet.
We took claims in few days after
we arrived, put up a house, and are
now living in it. We found water at
the depth Of 96 feet. -
People are raising all kinds of small
grain such as corn, wheat, oats, red
and white kaffir corn, cane, milo maize,
broom corn and so on. 1t is thought by
most of the people that this will be a
fine country for cotton raising.
The mild climate and abundance of
pasturage make the raising of horses,
cattle, hogs, also poultry of all kinds
easy, cheap and successful. 1t is said
with these advantages stock can be
raised here for about one third less cost
than in any other section of the coun-
try.
Timber is quite scarce in this part of
the country. We have plenty of black
cedar and muskeet out on the cliffs,
about fifteen miles from here, princi-
palfy used as posts. People are planting
quite lot of black locusts to be used
for posts in the future. They are also
many kinds of fruit trees. 1t
is believed that no section is better
adapted to the growth of water melons
and canteloupes, which often weigh
from 40 to IS pounds, and it is a very
common thing to buy melon weighing
40 or so pounds for ten cents, and they
have as fine flavor as those grown in
the best melon sections. Irish and
sweet potatoes, and in fact all kinds If
vegetables do we'll here.
We are blessed with plenty of game,
as follows; Jack rabbit, cotton tail, an
telope, wolf, Coyote, pararie chicken,
wild geese, ducks and plenty of rattle
snakes.
People are giving much attention to
the raising of fine cattle just at present.
Good mich cows sell from $50 to $50.
Horses are very cheap, and good pair
of mules will sell for $3.50. Hogs are
scarce, making them very high, ard
good flour is worth So Is, and corn 81. Is
per hundred.
The Pecos valley and northeastern
railroad run through the hustling little
city of Elida, making it quite handy for
us Kentuckians. Elida is a thriving
little village having three stores, one
saloon, one grain store, one church and
school house, two blacksmith shops,
post office, and lumber yard. There
are good schools and churches supplied
with frst-class teachers and preachers.
The length of the free school term is
FIVE months, and teachers salaries
range from $50 to SIS Der month.
The people are as moral, social, re-
fined and ,hospitable also progressive,
as can be found any where.
l guess this will do for this time.

1t is evident to all who have
carefully observed the modern
progress in all lines of activity,
that the farmer sooner or later in
his work realizes that improve
ment and greater intelligence con-
cerning his work are to be sought
for here as in everything else. To
day the facilities for transpOrta-
ton make it possible to lay down
farm products grown at great
distance from the market at great
ly reduced prices. The farmer of
to-day, that he may successfully
compete with his more distant
neighbor, must exercise care in
planning his work, in raising his
crops and in the marketing of
them.-Cor., in Farmers Senti-
mel.
He knows fully well that a bet
ter quality and a larger quantits
of product, such as he can rails
on his farm, will insure for hin
better financial returns. He n
alizes that improved machinei
and the use of varied farm impl
ments places farming on a keel
er, higher competitive basis than>
it ever did before. He also real-{
ICES that technical training and
skill based on scientific principles
are absolutely essential for sue
cess in competitive fields.
Every up-to-date farmer knows
or needs to know the actual con-
ditiOn and standing of his methods
of farming at every season of the
year. Such a farmer keeps a tan
gible system of farm bookkeep-
ing. He is in a position to know
whether the production of a given
crop or the raising of stock is
costing him more than it brings
in return to him. Should there
be loss he ought to understand
what moderfcations are neccess)
ry for him to make in order II
such leakage may be stopped.

with some principles of of econo-
my in so far as they may affect
him personally in the application
of them to dealings pertaining to

But these are not all the essen
tials that to a large degree make
the life of a farmer comfortable.
The farmer should no less have a
reasonable amount of knowledge
of State and local affairs and such
as may affect him in securing nee
essary legislation, to form correct
judgment, cast an intelligent
vote and be a useful citizen. 1t
seems that the farmer should be
so equipped as to earn a sufficiency

past has achieved for the farmer
that which was possible under his
own conditions. The present corNJ
