PROSPERITY AND GOOD
CHEER IN LOWER VALLEY

Carlsbad, N. M, July 24.-Big rains
all over Eddy county have made glad
/ the heart of the farmer and stock
man. Crops are made now without
any further irrigation and the stock.
man Is assured Of a good supply OF
| winter grass and fat cattle next
spring. Over four inches of rain has
fallen here within the past week. Av.
alon dam has 81 feet Of water in 1t
and Is spilling into the Pecos. This
is the first time this dam has been
full since the completion OF the work.
Lake Mcmillan Is over half full and
rising rapidly. With the crops prac-
tically made without further irriga-
ton and the reservoirs full OF water
there never was a better prospect for
the future of the valley.
.Homeseekers continue to come to
Carlsbad every day, and three farms
have changed hands this week. When
farm under this project Is sold to
stranger, 1t does not mean as 1t
does in many localities, that he is
buying simply as a speculation. 1t
means that this valley has a new fam
lily in it. as the buyer must live on
the land or in the locality.
Iowa parties were in Carlsbad this
week looking over the situation with
the idea of starting a creamery. The
concern was promised 500 cows, and
arrangements are now being made
to close the deal.
Carlsbad peaches are moving stea-
dily to market now and are of excel
lent quality. Most of the crop is 60
ing to Colorado points where it Is
bringing from 35c to 70 per crate
above the market price.
Governor George Curry has appoin-
ted F. G. Tracy and e. P. Bujac as
delegates to the National Irrigation
Congress. A large number of people
are expecting to go from Carlsbad to
the congress at Albuquerque. The
party will go from here in two or
three Pullman sleepers which will De
chartered from here and remain in
Albuquerque during the congress and
fair
The people of Carlsbad are much
interested in the dispatches from
different parts of the country relative
/ to the building OF the railroad from
Mangum, Okla, through Carlsbad to
Ell Paso by the Rock Island. Carlsbad
| is practically an air line between Man
g11m and FL PaSO The country east
of here has wonderful resources,
good grades and little or no sand.
West Of us around the southern point
Of the Guadalupe mountains, Is by
far the lowest crossing into Ell Paso.

Faw Babies Ride in Motor Cars.
From the Detroit Free Pre-.

From the Detroit Free Press.
Am / blind or simply unobserving? %
said a man who really as a rule keeps his
eyes open.
Monday" he continued, II saw in an
automobile a baby held in its mothers
arms, and that was q surprising sight to
me. l don remember ever to nave seen
a baby in an automobile before. And now
that l think of il you don't see many dogs
in automobiles. You see dogs carried in
carriages, but not many in automobiles.
why is this? Aren't the people that
own automobiles fond of dogs or babies?
Or II they are fond of them do they think
the auto would be too fast for them, not
good for them or something like that?
Horses and dogs go together all right,
and y might expect to see dogs In car
r!oges and not expect to see them in the
new motor driven machines; in fact, dogs
may not take kindly to automobiles, but I
don't know Of any reason why babies
shouldn't.
And yet I venture to say you rarely see
babies in automobiles; young children you
may see, but not babies, and why Is this?
Is 1t because those who ride In autos have
no babies, or is it because they are most
intent on their own pleasure, or is 1t be-
cause they think auto riding wouldn't be
good for them?
Il don't know; but that one I saw Mon
day was the first baby I ever saw In an
automobile.

A Force Now to Science.
From Harper's Weekly.


The measurement of nerve force pre-
sents one of the most mysterious and per-
picking problems in medicine. 1t Is the
meeting place of science and occultism.
the ground on which the occult contends
successfully with medicine n conquers
1t. Mystics have long declared that the
human body is surrounded by an aura,
depleted in ancient Examinations over the
heads Of saints as the halo; many appar-
entity reputable persons have declared
these carnations actually changed ac-
cording to the possessing emotion.
The French Academy of Science has in
vestigated the properties of the biometer,
a little machine invented for the purpose
Of measuring some unknown force given
off from the human body. The machine
consists Of a glass cylinder eight or ten
inches long and five to six inches wide,
closed at the top, and standing in a mar
row circular groove on IA wooden stand
From the top Of this apparatus depends a
single UNFINISHED thread OF cotton about
four inches long. The lower end is care
fully fastened to the exact middle of a
copper needle about three inches long,
suspended from 1t horizontally, so as to
move in horizontal rotation to right or left
with perfect freedom. About one-third of
an inch below this is a circular horizontal
card, divided into $50 degrees, which rests
on a glass bobbin having an exterior diam
eter OF two inches and resting itself upon
the wooden tand. This glass bObbln has
been wrapped round with alternate lay
ers of plotting paper and fine iron wire.
The result Is to produce n mobile needle
that can rotate horizontally Immediately
above a circular card divided into $50 de-
grees.
Various other contrivances. such as the
.sthenometer, LAY been devised, but all
on the same general principles. The bio
meter consists Of a copper needle, the
sthenometer Of a suspended straw, both
completely enclosed in glass.
Now, when the right hand Is advanced
to within about one inch of the cylinder,
and there retained from three to five
minutes, no one else standing near, and
the experimental neither moving nor talk
ing, the needle Is rotated through 20 to 60
degrees, remains fixed for a time, and
then returns to the starting point. The
same occurs when the left hand Is ad-
vanced. There Is no possibility of illu-
sion. 1t can be done whether the room be
or light. cold or not, quiet or noisy.

What is Pe-ru-na.

Are we claiming too much for Peruna
when we claim it 10 be an effective
remedy for chronic catarrh? Have we
abundant proof that Peruna is in real
tty such q catarrh remedy? Let us SEE
what the United States Dispensatory
says Of the principal ingredients Of
Peruna.
Take, for instance, the ingredients
hydrastis canadensis, or golden seal.
The United States Dispensatory says
of this herbal remedy, that it Is largely
employed in the treatment Of depraved
mucous membranes lining various
organs Of the human body.
Another ingredient of Peruna, cory
dalis formosa, Is classed in the United
States Dispensatory as a tonic.
Cedron seeds Is another ingredient Of
Peruna. The United States DISPENSE
tory says of the action Of cedron that
it Is used as a bitter tonic and in the
treatment of dysentery, and in inter-
mittent diseases rs a substitute for
quinine.

TRAINING YOUNG HORSES.

Training horses requires skill and
patience, particularly much of the lat
ter. BY controlling your W temper
you will be better able to gain control
over the horse you wish to handle. Be
gentle with the colts and gain their
confidence. Do not attempt to make
them do too much at first. Instruct
them In M thing uitl it is thoroughly
learned When horses are two or three
years old it Is time to begin to break
them to harness. At the same time the
young horse should be taught to fear
nothing. He should be taken to places
where railroad trains pass or where
locomotives stand and blow off steam
and whistle. At first the young horse,
particularly IL a country one, will be
skittish. Be patient and he will get
over this. Do not yell at him. When
you do so o simply make him more
Work with him until you as
sure him he is not going to be hurt and
ne Will then go with you where you
urge him. Another thing, always train
a horse to lead and to walk fast. New
er strike a colt or n other domestic
animal ON the head and never kick or
Glub them. In fact, the whip is Of very
little use, The horse wants to please
you and Will do SO If given proper
treatment. Try it.

A HOG EXPERTS DISCOVERIES,

Professor Dietrich, hog expert at the
Illinois experiment station, has discovered
these facts during a series OF experiments
results OF which will shortly be announced
in bulletin form: 3"
An all-corn ration is not good for grow
ing pigs.
1t is an easyS matter to get a growing
hog off the main line onto a side track
and g. difficult matter to get him back.
Lots OF young hogs are injured by using
them for the purpose of wasting feed.
A hog can eat more than he can digest
and digest more than he can use.
The danger OF overlooking In the case
OF growing pigs is always inimical to
maximum results. ,
1t Is not a fact that a hog can take care
Of all he can eat.
A self feeder is not good for young pigs
as under ! months old they will eat tool
much.
Tha an exclusive corn diet is not a good,
thing for growing hogs has been demon,
strated by a test in which animals so fed
averaged but - pounds in weight at the
end of eight months, while by the new
method an average of ESQ pounds was at
tanned. This was the widest extreme in
gains produced. :
