The increase Of horses, cattle and
other domestic animals imported by the
Spaniards to the new world was mar.
velous. The Gaceta de Mexico for DC.
tober, 1928, reports that In the month
around the city of Puebla alone there
had been sold 10000 mules at $40 q

die horses for the defense Of Vera Cruz
and promised $1,000 more II needed
The figures Of this increase astounded
the most experienced travellers and
some Of the sharpest polemics In early
American history were leveled by ex-
perts against European armchair his
torians who fancIed that the horse, OK
and other beasts had "deterIOrated" In
America. The world certainly had
never before seen any such multIpllca-
tiOn.
What 1t amounted to Is Indicated by
the fact that vessels and whole fleets
sailed for Spain laden exclusively with
the hides Of cattle-already in 1887
Acosta noted the expectation OF 100,754
hides from San Domingo and Mexico
alone In one tlOta. The prices to which
these animals fell are even more signih-
cant II compared with prices that
ruled at the time Of the conquest. In
1880 good work oxen could be bought
In the City Of Mexico at $40 the yoke
and In Guadalajara for &C. In Nueva
Galicia a good horse could be had for
50 and mule for So, ana 1t was not
uncommon to buy manada Of TWEEN
ty-four mares with their stallion for
$25. In Chill at the same time one
could buy a good trotter for 81.
After this 1t seems almost gratuitous
to remark that many Mexican gentle.
men owned $4,000 head Of cattle and
horses apiece and some rar more, or to
recall the fact that one Mexican cav
alIer, Juan 0rduna, about 1850, had on
his hacienda In one year a crop" o.
10000 calves.

Moon Is Constant.

The old idea that changes are taking
place on the moon carefully has been
investigated by NJ. Pulseux, French
astronomer. Going over all records,
from the earliest observations to the
latest he concludes that the reality of
the supposed changes has not been
proved, and that the varying sensitive
ness of the retina to faint objects Is
sufficient to account for differences
seen, while different conditions Of ex-
posure might explain all appearances

that at the least indication Of hoodlum-

The Rules for Breathing and Ven.
tiIation Given al the
University.
FOUL AIR is RANK POISON.
Devices for Letting Pure Atmosphere
Into Initiated school Rooms and
Other Buildings.

The nature study lesson at the uni
versity yesterday consisted Of a demon
stration OF the necessity for proper
ventilation, for deep breathing, and
for open-air exercise for growing chill
dren.
EXPERIMENTS IN BREATHING.
Some Of the evils OF impure air are
that It makes the children drowsy gives
them headache. and adversely affects
their general vitality. The general
subject Of ventilation was introduced
by means OF two simple experiments
the class timed themselves In breathing
for one minute. and It was shown that
the average number OF respirations per
minute was IS: and by means OF
breathing through a tube into a three
quart bottle filled with water and the
mouth inverted IN a vessel Of water,
that an ordinary breath eXpels one
quart Of water. II follows that a per-
son hreathes rs quarts, or about l,0Ss
cubic inches Of air per minute. Other
experiments showed that air once
breathed will put out lighted candle;
and since life Is a process Of combus-
ton, air that has been breathed may
extinguish the lamp OF life,
RULES FOR BREATHING.
From these experiments the laws ot
breathing were easily deducible. /.
