and consider every line of it
deeply, Mr.. Voter. Remember.
Delegate Andrews has this bill
pending in Congress and Las the
promise of the president and
many influential members of
both houses that it will pass,
hence, it would indeed be most
foolish for the voters of New
Mexico to fail to return him to
his seat. Fact is, every county

A Damnable Lie.

Under the head of "A Dam
nable Lie" the New Mexican
prints a long editorial which ex-
plains what connection Delegate
Andrews ever had with the de-
/ funct Enterprise National bank,
/ of PittSburg, Pa, which failed
| in 1906, and which failure drove
the cashier, Clarke, to suicide.
Tie New Mexican shows tn
matter up most clearly and con-
vincingly, and proves beyond
the shadow of a doubt that An.
drews never had anything more
to do with the failure Of the bank
than a FIJI Islander.
The facts in the case are that
Mr.. Andrews was simply a pa
iron of the bank. At the time of
its failure, which was caused by
the cashiers own wrong doing
in misappropriating the funds Of
the institution, Andrews was
owing money borrowed of the
bank to the amount OF $50, GOO.
As soon as the failure came on
he sacrificed every dollars worth
Of property he owned in order TO
meet this obligation, which he
succeeded in doing and uphold
Ing his good name. This is a
matter Of public knowledge and
court record, and the hue and
cry sent forth about the dead
cashier Of the bank accusing An
drews Of driving him to the aw-
ful act of taking his own life, is
the worst kind Of political rot,
and has not the slightest sem
blance Of truth in it.
That the people don't believe
that Delegate Andrews is open
for any such vilifcation and as.
sailment Of character, will be
proved beyond all doubt on Nov.
Ord.

LIGHT OATS VS.. HEAVY OATS.
They Practically Have the Same Feed
ing Value Pound for Pound.

The weight Of oats per bushel varies
from 80 pounds to so and even So
pounds In some of the western irrigat-
ed states. The Office Of experiment
stations notes an experiment on three
pair of Percheron horses which were
fed light and heavy oats.
The practical results Of this expert
ment seem to indicate that pound for
pound, the light oats have nearly the
same feeding value as the heavy oats.
Although the heavy oats contain a
higher percentage Of protein, and car
bohydrates and less percentage OF
fiber than the light oats. it seems prob
able that the relative proportions OF
these constituents are such that they
are more easily and thoroughly di
gested.
1t should be remembered that al
though the two grades are practically
equal, pound for pound, they are MOI
equal, quart for quart, and that in feed
ing by measure, as is usual, allowance
should be made for heavy oats and ;
less portion given.
Since oats are bought and sold b.
weight instead of measure, Their
seems to be no gain made in buying
the heavy oats at an advanced pric'
over the light oats.

Mutton and Wool.

According to a report of the depart
ment of agriculture, mutton consti-
Iutes only seven per cent of the meat
diet of the American people, while
beef and veal constitute AZ per cent.
and pork IS per cent However, there
has been a wonderful increase in the
consumption of mutton in the past %
years. The demand for mutton is gen
orally very good in the markets and it
is undoubtedly true that there is a
great deal of room for expansion in
producing mutton for the market. The
supply of wool nowadays is entirely
inadequate for the demand and the
price is very high in comparison.
