South ST. Joe Cattle Receipts.

South ST. joe, Mo, May 6.-FOr the
opening of the week, i number of
cattle arriving at this point was about
the same as a week ago but in h
total at five leading markets there
was a falling off of TEL Thousand.
This proves agreeable to trade coldi-
tions, and the market for the week
got a good active start with prices
ruling strong to around a dime high
er for steers and steady to strong
for she stock. The most strength in
steers was shown on the light and
handy weights of good quality, these
selling mostly around a dime higher,
while heavy weights We're hardly
more than strong. The good heavies
sold largely at $40 a $5.65 with the
best making 1915, although strictly
prime heavy weights would readily
sell up to $500 q 1925. Bulk of light
weights sold in a range of $3.50 a
$40. The market o butcher stock
was fairly active at steady to strong
prices. There are not enough stock
cattle here to establish quotations,
but fairly liberal receipts would be
welcomed at steady to strong prices.
The market for hogs was only mod
erately supplied at the leading points
but with Chicago having a very large
proportion of the total in sight the
ma hOI an ILoI poAANI OIoNO, ohN NhAo
break was reflected at all outside
points. Locally the opening was slow
but later in the forenoon the trade
became active on a basis of 2R q 5
cent reduction. Hogs were generally
heavy in weight and of quite good qua
lily, so that the range in prices was
very narrow, there being but 7c be-
tween the bottom and top. the nice
smooth bacon and light butcher
weights, are now the favorites with
the trade, as the lighter cuts of pork
are wanted, and the proportion of
heavy weights is very large. The
bulk of hogs today sold at $3.50 a
$6.321a with tops making $685., altho
any prime 200 pound butchers might
have sold a little above the latter
figure.
The market for sheep was moderate
ly supplied and the trade active on a
basis of steady prices. There is now
a spread of about $1.40 between lambs
in the fleece and shorn stock of the
same quality. Top wooded lambs to-
day sold at $3.50 and about the same
grade of shorn stock went at $7.25;
The outlook continues to favor high
prices for live mutton until the open
ing of the grade season.

Experiment Station. Starv-
ING out codIing Moth.

NeW Mexico CoHeae or AQrfcuI1ur a
Mechanic Arts and Agricultural
Experiment Station. Starv-
ing out Cooling Moth.
Many ways have been suggested
and tried to keep the codIing moth
under control or to eradicate it. Some
of the measures are quite satisfactory
but none are absolute remedies. To
destroy a years fruit crop is plan
which has frequently been suggested.
This plan carries with it the idea
that by destroying the whole fruit
crop the eodling moth will not have
any fruit on which to subsist, and,
therefore, 1t will be starved out of ex-
istence.
The plan of, destroying a INT years
fruit crop, though 1T a been talked
of in the past by a humble of fruit
growers in the Mesilla Valley, mas
never been unanimously favored, The
main obstacle in the way of the plan
is to get every fruit grower, not only
interested in he work, but willing to
destroy the whole crop on his trees.
The idea cannot be given a thorough
trial unless every bit of all kinds of
fruits-cultiyated or wild-belonging to
the rose family are destroyed. This
necessitates a heroic action as well
as a strong heart. If the measure
proves a success n all the COdlfnS
moths are starved out, the following
year and as long as the motn is kept
out, the fruit will be free from worm
holes. The experiment is worth try
ing. If successful it will be worth
hundreds of times more than the
fruit destroyed and the S of the
york.
Never had there been such an eX>
cellent opportunity in the territory
to undertake this experiment without
causing the fruit-growers considerable
cost and work, as in the present year
The unusually late and severe freez-
es of April goth and 21st, which de-
stroyed all, or almost all, of h fruit
crop, make it possible to give this
plan a thorough trial without great
expense. This is a chanc that may
not come again for a very long time,
and should not be allowed to go by
without taking advantage of it. Re-
member, however, thorough work is
the most important feature of the
plan. To do this work thoroughly
every fruit growing locality in the ter
ritory should organize and critically
examine all fruit trees in their spe
tive localities, aad destroy all fruit
left by the frost. By systematic work
and taking advantage of the favorable

system following an era of misman-
Iagement and reckless extravaganza
has been 50 pleasing to the people
that many of them recognize in it a
panacea for all the ills of govern
ments, whether city, state Dr. national.
The Chronicle of that city, in its en-
thusiaSm asks:
why should not the nation and
each state have a legal commission.
The commission idea has been proved
to be the solution of the long perplex-
ing problem of the evils of municipal
government. A legal commission of
a few trained lawyers could give hear
ing TO any citizen with an idea of law
reform, could codify our laws and
make recommendations to congress
and the legislature. with reasons as
signed, which would be found a valu-
able guide to senators and repreSen-
tatives who in the cas- of our state
lawmakers haY hot as a rule n
time for study, being compelled to
devote their time and energy to MAX
ing a living
1.-The esteemed Chronicle is carried
TO an extreme in it's advocacy of the
commission system. The fac that it
has worked pretty well in less than
half a dozen cities oes not prove its
general fitness for municipal affairs.
in other cities it may be as great a
failure as it has been a success in
Houston.
But if it should be universally sat
~isfactory in all cities it by no means
follows that it is adapted to state or
national government. On the contra
~, there are many reasons why, even
though it's success in city affairs
should be assured, it would not work
satisfactory in the government of
a state or the nation. In purely 10
cal affairs, where the people are COM
paratively few and their interests are
not diversified, a centralized form of
government will be far less danger
GUS than where hundreds of thousands
of citizens having varied interests are
to be represented as in a state, or the
nation.
IN Texas, for illustration, with it's
need of irrigation in the western por-
ton, its stock raising in the panha1-
die, it's cotton belt IN the northern
and central sections. it's fruit lands
il the eastern and it's lumber and

principles OF which our governmental
system is based would be hard to i'm
prove upon, and 1t is a cause for re-
greet that each year centralized power
is gaining and the democracy of JEFF
ferson is being lost sight of.
ut may become necessary to cut
down the memberships of our legis-
lative bodies, but let us never sup

conditions at hand, the expense of
destroying what little fruit there may
be Left will be very small. Again, the
small amount of fruit that may have
escaped the frost will not be worth
ANYTHING, since all of it will be wormy
Aside from this, it will furnish enough
food o the cooling moth during the
season and thereby reinfest the or
chards h following year. All wild
fruits, such as cherries, plums, etc,
as well as any kinds of walluts should
also be destroyed
Considering the life history and the
habits Of the codling moth, it seemms
quite reasonable that if there is no
fruit on which to subsist the insect
cannot live on the leaves or other We
getatiOn. 1t is the habit of the cOdling
moth worm to live inside of the fruit.
ut cannot mature on the leaves. The
worms enter the fruit soon after they
hatch from the eggs. Their full
growth is attained inside of the fruit
in about twenty days. As Don as the
worms mature they leave the apple,
spin their ocoOns, and change into
moths. These moths lay eggs which
in turn, hatch out giving rise to anoth
er o of worms. If the worms do
not mature, it is not likely tnat they
can change into moths. Then, if there
are no months, theEeizeannot be any
second Or third brooa~9f worms.
Seeing this excellent opportunity
for testing this plan and knowing the
value that it will be to the territory,
if successful, the horticultural De
partment of the New Mexico Expert
Station calls the attention of the
New Mexico f~ruit-growers to take
vigorous action NOW. The Depart
ment is ready to aid and to give sug-
g~estions as far as it can in regard to
the matter.

The Record knows positively that
Captain Reid never did want to office
OF Attorney General, that it required
much persuasion upon the part OF
MI. Hagerman to induce him to ac-
sept the office, and we are satisfied
That he has sacrificed his personal
interests In holding the position as
long as ne did. Having accepted, how
ever, he was not the kind of man to
desert in the midst of h battle.
Much of the success of the Hagerman
administration was due to Captain
Reid,-and though 1T ended in the re

the victory is even in the hour of

yocates Of good government in New
