Concert of the Hruby Bros.

The musical concert on the Y. M.
c. A. course given by the Hruby
Bros. was a complete success. They
played to a crowded house and GER
tainly deserved the patronage that
was given them. The cornet duet
by Avis and John was especially
fine as were also the cornet solo by
Charles. the Wind Quartet and the
Blue and the Gray, layed by them
in place of the duet of the Clarinet
and cello. The final number A Hun
ting scene, was very realistic.
Miss Garfield, the reader who trav-
els with them, pleased her audience
in every respect, except In the small
number of her appearances. The
audience would have been better
pleased even If some Of the musical
numbers could have been sacrificed
in order that they might have heard
from Miss Garfield. We were in
formed by Mr.. Blake that the next
number on the program would be on
March 9Th, and that the noted car
toonist and sketch artist, Alton Pack
ard, would be with US on that occa'
sion If his reputation is to be trust.

fact that Caldwell is being recognized

Few people realize what even q lit

During 1906 the United States grew
ninety-five million acres of corn. This
area produced 1850, 100000 bushels
of corn, worth in round numbers 81, ;
900, 100000. BY simply adding one
kernel to each ear you add 100000
to the returns from this area produc-
ing corn.
This increase is infinitesimal in it.

adopted improved methods, or used
pure-bred seed, will admit that less
than two to three bushels per acre
can be secured. Figure little fur
Their. AS stated above, in 1906 the
corn crop covered ninety-five million
acres. By increasing the yield one
bushel to the acre, and figuring this
at forty-five cents a bushel, the tota
value of the corn crop is increased
$42,75O.000; by increasing the yield
two bushels, $S5.5OO,0O0; three
bushels, $12S,25O,OOO; four bushels
$171, OOO,OOO; five bushels, the stu
pendous sum of $213,75O,00O.
The economic possibilities of thu
corn plant are almost unlimited. A
the National Corn Exposition which
was held in Chicago. october 5 to 10
1907, one of the most interesting ex
hibits was that of household articles
made from corn. This consisted O
rugs, portieres, table covers, mats
picture frames, etc., made from thu
corn plant.
More than five hundred Thousand
acres of unproductive swamp lant
within a radius of three hundred
miles Of Chicago can be made grea
corn fields; first by drainage, and
second, by the application of potasl
or phosphorus or both. The first

comparatively small cost. That thes

annual crops Of from sixty to eight
bushels per acre. This has been del
y nitely demonstrated during the la
few years by at least three expeI
;, ment stations in the Middle West al
y hundreds of practical farmers.
About one-third of all the land u

is devoted to corn. 1t Is grown {

WASHINGTON GLAD
It IGNORED CASTRO
Now the People of Venezuela Have
No Feeling Against the United
States.

Washington, d. c., Dec. 1.-THE
riotous demonstrations in Caracas are
a surprise to the officials at Wash
ington. who generally expected that
any demonstration of hostile act
by the foreign power against Ven
ezuela would result in solidifying the
people and rallying them TO Presi-
dent Castro and his government.
The common belief here is that
United States, had taken forceful
steps against Venezuela, Castro would
have become hero in the eyes OF the
people there. 1t is possible for this
reason that the administration has
been Indifferent in pushing demands
for a settlement. The department
felt that the Venezuela situation
would gradually work itself out. For
this reason there has been a persist
ent determination to ignore Castro
and look with equanimity on the do
ings Of the foreign governments in an
effort to get satisfaction. so long as
there was no interference with Amer
lean interests and no violation OF the
Monroe doctrine.

TRAIN IS DELAYED
BY ARIZONA FLOOD
High Water Is Reported I'm the Terri
tory With Much Damage at
Several Places.

Passenger train No. 2 due this
morning at 1855 o'clock, had not
reached the city at o'clock this
afternoon and the indications at that
hour were that it would not get in
before midnight, II then. owing to
heavy rains and subsequent wash
outs In Southern Arizona.
On account Of the wash-outs being
west of Winslow, Ariz., the first di-
vision point west. very little informa-
ton regarding the damage done to
railroad property could be had at the
local Santa Fe offices.
1t rained all Tuesday and Wednes-
day In Central Arizona and in the
southern part of the territory there
was considerable rain on Monday also.
The Santa Fe tracks are said to be
badly damaged on the San Francisco
mountains. The Salt river valley is
flooded and the town of Roosevelt
near the Roosevelt dam is partly
submerged. This latter information
came in a private telegram last night.
Considerable damage has been done
by water in the vicinity of Phoenix.
A report received this afternoon
was to the effect that the water at
Clear creek, sixteen miles from Wins
low, in a deep rock canyon, was fifty
tN~se Fee' above low water mark
last night and that the Santa Fe
pumping station there was badly
damaged

WORKMAN KILLED
BY ROCK FROM BLAST
He Stood Behind a Small Bush With
His Back to the Spot Where
the Blast Was Fired.

The first fatality to happen on the
Albuquerque Eastern railroad since
the beginning of the construction
work last October, occurred Satur-
day noon when a rock from a large
blast struck Pedro Alejando in the
back of the head, causing instant
death. Alexandra was the firer of
the charge and contrary to rules,
stood behind a small bush about 800
feet away from the explosion, with
his back to the scene.
1t is the custom of those In the
neighborhood of the locations where
blasting Is being done, that, at
warning cry from one of their party
when a shot is to be fired, all seek
an open spot where they may see
the spot being blasted. and IL neces-
sary dodge any missile which may
come their way. In this instance the
victim not only sought small bush
for protection, but stood with his
back to the blast. In this position
he was unable to see a large, sharp
cornered rock measuring about one
fo0t snare which almed '.rec.'v for
his ne q removing large part of
his skull.
Arrangements were made to take
the body to Santa Fe, his former
home.
