The recent rapid growth Of the
New Mexico College Of Agriculture
and Mechanic Arts at Messilla PARK
or as il is more familiarity known, the
Agricultural college, has served TO at
tract special attention 70 hat lnstltu-
ton. which Is doing so much for the
deyelopment of the territory and what
is more important, in preparing young
men and young Women 50 that theY
may take a practical and active par
in %furthering that development. Inc
work of the college experiment station
has long drawn the attention OF iarm-
ers and scientists all over the coun-
try. and the institution Is Just nov
entering on the period OF IT'S most
rapid development in all departments
when 1t is reaching out for young men

Foundation and Purpose.
The New Mexico College OF Agricul-
ture and Mechanic Arts was establish
ed as the result Of an agreement be
tween the territory of New Mexico
and the United states government. IN
this contract the territory agreed 10
furnish a farm OF some 200 acres,
buildings sufficient for the needs OF
the school and experiment station
work. and enough money TO pay for
furniture. care of equipment, ana
managerial expenses. The united
states government agreed 20 furnish
certain sums Of money annually
which MAY be used for the purchase
Of apparatus. materials. books ana an
necessary equipment both for teaching
and experimental work, and payment
of salaries OF men hired for either OF
both these purposes.
Thus IL Is seen that the Institution
is by virtue Of its very plan Of organ
ization n strictly territorial institution
and its benefits should and do accrue

take advantage 81 them. IL is IN no
sense a local institution. though as 2

Laboratories and Equipment.
The various laboratories Of the
College are exceptionally we'll
equipped. Al one time all of them
were located In the basement of the
only building then on The grounds.
Now they are scattered through some
four buildings.
The Chemical Department has
probably the most extensive scientific
laboratory of the Institution, ecupy-
ing almost the whole lower floor
of Science Hall. The meteorological
rooms with gas furnaces for assay
work in one and desks. apparatus, and
hoods for wet analyses in another. the
large weighing rooms and library. the
large Experiment Station laboratory
equipped with every necessary piece
of apparatus. large ana commodious
students working laboratory with
practice a~ssaying u weighing rooms
adjoining; and finally the large reel
tation room with lecture desk and
chemical stock adjoining-alt go
to make this department an excep-
t~ionally strong one.
The Domestic Science laboratory
also on the lower floor OF Science
Hall. is equipped viii twelve gas
burners. a large gasoline range, work
ing tables. china closets. refrigerators,
and cooking utensils. Specimen din
ners are served by the young women
| and students OF this department are
usually important members of COM
mittees that cater for entertainments
and nicnics.
The young women also have a
comfortable room fitted up for the
practical work which am goes under
the name of sewing. Here they have
sewing machines, cutting boards and
tables. charts. and material for the
actual work besides the necessary fit
ting rooms with accommodations for
trying on. The department gives an
exhibition of its work about COM
mencement time. which Is i'm the ma
ture of an afternoon tea and rs a
thoroughly enjoyable occasion.
The Physical laboratory occupies
part of the second floor of Science

raised the question that the manner of

that the legislature had prescribed only
a forfeiture of 81 for each Sunday vio-

justice was illegal and arbitrary. One

SABBATH BREAKING A CRIME

Here are some extracts from recent
decision of Judge Clopton, sitting at
Henrico Circuit Court:
81 am gravely asked by learned coun-
sci to hold that Sabbath breaking is not
a crime. 1t has been held by our supreme
court that the forfeiture imposed for
Sabbath breaking may be recovered
by a warrant of arrest or a criminal
prosecution. Effort was made by coun-
sci to show that this decision was not
to be followed as the law in this State.
Judge Buchanan clearly settles this
question. He says that the distinction
between a civil and criminal proceeding
taken in the most ancient and approved
authorities, is not whether the crown

prove preventive of this crime, al

THE OLD, OLD SONG.

When all the world is young, lad,
And all the trees are green,
And every goose a swan, lad,
And every lass queen;
Then hey for boot and horse, lad,
And round the world away
Young blood must have its course, lad,
And every dog his day.
When all the world is old, lad,
And all the trees are brown,
And all the sport is stale, lad,
And all the wheels run down;
Creep home and take your place there,
The spent and manned among;
God grant you find one face there
You loved when all was young.
