AGRICULTURE
Splendid Courses Offered by
Big Territorial Institution at
MesiIIa Park for the Year
Just Beginning,

The catalogue for 190I-190S of the
New Mexico College of Agriculture
and Mechanic Arts at Mesilla Park
has just been issued from the press Of
the Morning Journal. Aside from be-
ing geographically a beautiful vol
ume, handsomely bound in buff and
green and brown, the catalogue is a
mine of information for the young
man who wants to get the best educa-
ton the west affords. From a glance
at the courses Of study offered for the
year, the strength of the faculty the
unequalled of the growing
school down on the Rio Grande shows
that II has developed into an educa-
tional institution which will compare
most favorably with anything west of
the Missouri river.
The catalogue Is the seventeenth an
nual publication. The school Is a
young one but has been progressing
in giant strides.
The Agricultural college is a school
of which New Mexico should be proud.
1t starts the year with better pros
poets than ever before in its history.
The attendance has broken all records
and il will be necessary to almost
doublefthe accommodations at Mesllla
Park during the next year.

We feel somewhat encouraged over
the present outlook for an organiza-
of the farmers of this county. There
was not as many present at the meet
ing last Monday as there should have
been, but the showing was not so bad
after all. The organization can be
made a success if our farmers will
just take an interest in it, and we
propose to keep up the agitation un-
til we do get them aroused or they
drop it altogether. Another meeting
is to be held the first Monday in Sep
tember, and at this meeting the COM
mittee to solicit stock for the cotton
warehouse will make report of what
has been accomplished. Let there be
a good number of farmers and busi-
ness men present.

"BLEST BE THE TIE"
How the Familiar Old Hymn Came
to be Written.

Not one in a thousand of those
who sing that good old hymn, ''Blest
Be the Tie That Binds knows the
history of it's homely origin.
According to the Church Eclectic,
it was written by the Rev. John taW-
cett, who in the latter part of the
eighteenth century was the pastor OF
a poor little church in Lockshlre,
England. His family and RESPONSE
bilities were large, his salary was less
than 81 a week.
In 1772 he felt himself obliged to
accept a call to a London church.
His farewell sermon had been preach
ed, six wagons loaded with furniture
and books stood by the door. His
congregation, men, women, and
children, were in an agony of tears.
Mr.. Fawcett and his wife sat down
on packing case and cried with the
others. Looking up, Mrs. Fawcett
said:
"Oh, John, John, cannot bear
this! know not where to go!'
''Nor l either" said he; nor will
we 90. Unload the wagons and put
everything back in it's old place"
His letter of acceptance to the Lon
don church was recalled and he wrote
this hymn to commemorate the cpl
SOde.

The movement to erect a cotton
warehouse in Bamberg has taken
definite shape, by the executive COM
mittee of the county cotton associ-
alton being authorized to solicit sub
scriptions to the capital stock. You
cannot expect to get the benefits un-
less you put something into the
scheme. Don't wait for the COM
mittee to call on you, but see them
at once and subscribe for as many
shares as you can. There is a sub
scription list at our office, in the
hands of the editor of this paper,
and if you want to subscribe, let us
know. We do not propose to run
anybody down and beg them to take
stock. The benefits to be derived
from the enterprise are too plain for
us to have to beg our farmers and
business men to go into the company
Of course, every one will be solicited
who can be seen, but don't wait for
some one to call on you. Any member
of the committee will be glad to take
your subscridtion, even if you car
take only one share.

Bill Nye's Long Wait.

Bill Nye when young man once
made an engagement with a young

driving on Sunday afternoon. The

stable all the horses were taken out
save one old, shaky, exceedingly bony
horse.
Mr.. Nye hired the nag and drove
to his friends residence. The lady
let him wait nearly an hour before
she was ready, and then, on viewing
the disreputable outfit fatty refused
to accompany Mr.. Nye.

nust Produce Certificate.

Columbia, S. c., August 2, 1907. #
Mr.. j. F. Carter, Bamberg, s. c.
Dear Sir::-Your letter to the Attor-
ney General, asking whether it is nec-
essary for voter to present his regis
tration certificate and tax receipt at the
ballot box when he offers to vote, has
been received. In the case Of Wright
against the State Board Of Canvassers,
the Supreme Court decided that the
manager should require the production
of both registration certificate and tax
receipt. It is proof of the payment OF
taxes that is required. The tax receipt
is the best evidence, but if that cannot
be produced certificate of the treasur-
er, or best proof of which the fact is
susceptible at the time, willbe sufficient.
/ enclose you the findings of the State
Board of Canvassers in the case of the
Kershaw election which was decided
yesterday. If you desire any further
information, write us and we will glad
ly serve you in any way we can.

Some people express a great deal
of satisfaction over the defeat OF
Vardaman in Mississippi for the
United States Senate and the election
of John Sharp Williams. A matter
of sentiment purely. The country
will never know any difference, and
one would do as we'll as the other SO
far as results are concerned. Still
it is to the credit of Mississippi's
voters that so blatant a .demagogue
as Vardaman should have been de-
feated..

Fire at Aiken.

AIKEN, August 6.-Last night at
$50 o'clock fire broke out in Richard
sons wood yard, in Aiken, and after
burning for several hours was d yna-
mited, but the fire, while it was kept
confined, continued to burn until this
morning when it was finally ex-
tinguished. The fire department re-
sponded promptly, but the fire had
spread so rapidly that but little could
be done other than keeping it con-
fined. At IL o'clock dynamite was
used to prevent several large piles of
wood from catching. A large guam
ity of machinery was burned and a
barn and stables were also burned.
The loss. is estimated to be about
81, 900 and it is understood that some
insurance was carried, but it is not
known how much. The machinery,
buildings, etc., are a complete loss,
while quantity of wood was saved.
