Dawson is Having a Boom

Ration, N. M, May 28-Among
the many towns in the territory
that are growing rapidly is the
thriving mining camp of Dawson,
which already claims a population
Of 5000, and that it will rival
Albuquerque in size and number
of business industries.
The purchase of the Ell Paso &
Southwestern railroad by the
Phelps Dodge people and the
great increase that will be made in
the ncnthly coal production, and
the increased number of miners
that will be given employment,
will all prove a stimulus to the
growth of the place.
According to the school census
of Dawson, 600 children attend
the public schools there out of a
school population of 500. A
superintendent and seven teachers
are employed in the schools.
In addition to the above, the
general officers of the Dawson
Fuel company have been moved
from Ell Paso to Dawson, causing
ar increase in population of thirty
people. The fuel company has
just completed a large and hand
some Office building, which has
been fitted up for general office
purposes and the force has already
moved into the new quarters.

Valuable Weeds.

It is not a matter of common knowl
edge. says the Technical World Mag
azine, that some of the weeds "infest-
ing'' the land will produce the crude
drugs which to-day, in large part, are
obtained by importation from abroad.
Alice Henkel, an assistant Of the gov
ernment's plant industry bureau, says
that the roots, leaves and flowers of
several Of the weed species regarded
as plaques in the United States are
gathered, prepared and cured in Eu
rome, and not only for useful cOmmodi-
ties there, but supply to a considera
BILE extent the demands Of foreign
lands, There are weeds in this coun-
try against which determination laws
have been passed which hold in their
leaves, stems or roots medicinal prop
critics which have value in the work
of preserving the health of the nation.
It is possible, in Kidding land of weeds
in order that crops may be grown, to
make of the uprooted pests" a source
of income. Moreover, it is possible to
maintain upon land given over as
worthless for crop-growing purposes a
weed plantation, which, after the har-
vest, will prove itself to be not less
profitable than some of the titled fields.

This machine used at the q. S. Ag-
ricultural Experiment Stations consists
OF two driving wheels, between which
is mounted the frame for the driving
mechanism and platform. 1t is drawn
by one horse, which walks between the
two rows that are cut at the same time.
The dividers pick up the lodged corn,
except such as lies in the row of corn
away from the machine, and guide it to
the cutting apparatus, which consists Of
two stationary side blades above which
is movable sickle, which cuts the
corn and deposits it horizontally on a
platform which is elevated about six
inches from the cutting apparatus. On
the inner side is guide chain, which
assists in directing the stalks of corn
to the knife and the platform. The
rear part of the machine Is provided
with small wheel, above which Is
fitting lever, by means of which the di-
viders in front can be raised or low
cred to gather up the lodged corn until
it comes in contact with the endless
chain, which carries it backward until
it is cut and deposited on the platform.
When there is enough to start a
shock the horse is stopped and the two
men who follow the machine gather the
corn from the platform and set it up
around the shock pole and tie it. They
then start the horse again, and when
returning across the field the horse Is

Monroe Truesdell of Big Hollow, n.
Y, makes the claim that he was the
youngest man in the Federal army in
the civil war-eXcluding drummers, of
course. He was born in the town of
Lexington, New York State, Septem-
Der IS, 1S4S On September II, 1862,
two days before he was Il years old,
he enlisted in the Fourth New York
Cavalry and entered service immedi-
ately, being assigned to the Army of
the Potomac. He served under Custer,
Fitzpatrick, Merritt and Sheridan and
was on the staff of Warren and Sheri-
dan. He claims to have carried the
first dispatch from Warren to Grant
when the latter took command of the
Army Of the Potomac at Culpepper,
Va. Gen. Cesnola once told him that
he was the swiftest bearer of messages
he had ever known.
When Sehridan went to the Shenan-
doah Valley to meet Early, Truesdell
went with him. Up to this time he
had only received a bayonet wound
through the left leg and a buckshot
wound in the right side. At the bat
tie of Winchester he was shot through
the right lung and shoulder, He was
sent to a hospital Returning to his
regiment he was promoted to commits
sary sergeant for services at Winches-
ter. Later the Fourth New York Cav
airy was consolidated with the Ninth
and Truesdell was rendered super
nunerary. He was then offered COM
mission as lieutenant on scout duty on
the frontier but preferred to remain
with his old comrades. When Lee sur
rendered he helped parole prisoners in
the Valley. He was discharged April
80, 1865.
After leaving the army he went into
business In several branches and is
now located at East Jewett in the
lumber business. He has recently re-
turned from a trip through the South,
during which he inspected several of
the old battlefelds.

in vain to drive her back. A bali
touched her side, but only marked her
hair. At Fredericksburg Sallie was
in the thick of the fight. When the
ranks thinned and broke she, for the
first time in her life, became democrat
lied. Missing accustomed faces, she
sought the rear, and was seen to ap-
proach it at rapid pace. This was
the only time she showed fear. Stead
lily sharing toll, privation and dan
ger, she never struggled or deserted.
During the first days fight at Get
tysburg she became separated from
her regiment. Returning to the battle
field, she sought out her friends among
the dead and wounded. There, for
three days and nights, she kept a faith
full vigil, without food. Finally the
provost of her company found her, and
carried her back to her own.
Sallie received her first wound at
the Battle Of the Wilderness, where a
MIME ball hit her in the neck. She
was sent to the hospital and carefully
treated, but she soon returned to the
field, where her first act was to tear
the trousers of a conscript from an
other regiment who, scared at the fir
ing, had broken ranks and was re-
treating.
Sallie was killed at Hatchers Run,
as the regiment was making its first
advance. She was buried in the face
of the enemy's fire, as the adjutant
stated at the end of his official report.
Strictly honest, generally good-tem-
pered, with a strong dislike for women,
civilians and strange darkies, Sallie
lived and died faithful to her regiment
and was inferred with the honors of
war.

Horse Breeding I'm Wisconsin.


The present condition of the horse
breeding industry in Wisconsin is dis
cussed in a bulletin by the station as
we'll as the effects and defects of the
Wisconsin stallion law. The State law
is quoted, with recommendations for
new legislation. A directory is includ-
ed of owners Of licensed stations, and
list of American and foreign stud
books, as we'll as samples Of the score
cards used in the department OF horse
breeding at the Wisconsin College of
Agriculture.
The State breeding stock law, in the
authors opinion, should be revised and
should demand, among other things, the
annual or biennial renewal of a license
fee, and the adoption of list of dis
eases to be considered hereditary,
transmissible, or communicable" and
which would subject a stallion to re-
lection as unsound. Specific authority
should be given for the department Of
horse breeding to refuse license to stall
lions known to be unsound and to re-
found to be unsound. There should
also be authority to revoke the license
of scrub stations of unknown breed
ing" and to refuse licenses to such
horses in the future. The law should
provide for State veterinary inspectors
to inspect public-service stations and
require State veterinary inspection of
all stations already granted licenses on
the affidavit Of the owner.

VOLCANOES OF THE MOON.
On Much Larger Scale than Those of
Our Globe.

Our Globe.
It is evident to anyone who glances
upward at the moon that its volcanoes
are on an immensely larger scale than
those which stud our globe. One eX-
PLANTATION, now abandoned, Is that the
force of gravitation being there only
one-siXth that of the earth the matter
expelled from q crater would be spread
far more widely and explosions would
be generally on far more magnificent
scale.
Prof. Pickering quotes this theory
only to refute it in some comparisons
which he has made between the great
volcanic region of Hawaii and one of
the smaller craters of the moon.
The facts seem to him to be that the
large craters on the moon came into
existence when the thin, solid crust
covering the molten interior was, owing
to it's qualification and contraction of
the crust, much too small to contain
the liquid material.
The craters were therefore formed
DIV the lava pursuing through TIE crust
and so relieving the pressure. Later
after this relief had been found and
the crust had thickened the interior
regions by cooling shrank away from
the solid she'll, which was now too
large, and, being insufficiently support
ed, caved in, permitting the great fs-
sure eruptions which produced the So
called lunar seas.
These extensive outflows Of lava dis
solved the original solid shell whenever
they came into contact with it, much
as they do in the present day in Ha-
wall.
Had the moon been much smaller
these eruptions might not have occur
red at all and if the moon had been
much larger their relative size would
have been greater. Most probably on
the earth similar outbursts were great
er and our original gigantic craters
were destroyed by the outflow of the
earlier archaic rocks which completely
submerged and dissolved them.
