The people of WinslOw and vi cinity will find something to in terest them in the livestock line at the Twenty-ninth New Mexico Fair and Resources Exposition at Albuquerque, October 11-16 next. The fair management is now assured of the finest eXhibi- tion of thoroughbred f1eece-bear- ing animals ever gathered to- gether in this part of the country.
 The sheep exhibit has received considerable added interest from the recent announcement Of the offering of the "Sheep Growers Trophy'' donated by a number of the leading sheep grOwersin New Mexico who, i'll common with the raisers everywhere, are interested in everything that will help to raise the quality of the stock.

From communi- cations already received by those in charge of the livestock will be the finest thing of it's kind ever seen in the southwest.

Engineers Merit Recog-
 nized by Santa Fe

V is taking a rap at the railroads, sometimes, perhaps, not alto gether without justification, it is refreshing to bring to light some of the kindly acts of these big and so called "soulless corporations towards their employees.
 The Santa Fe system have re gently inaugurated a system whereby the engineer making the most mileage with his engine be tween shoppings during tie course of a year will be given leave of absence for 80 days and transportation for himself and dependent members ot his family to any point on the system.
 Engineer L. c. Walthour, of the western division running out of Newton, Kan was the first man to be notified that he would be given a lay off at the com pany's expense, his letter being accompanied by a check for S14S, which represents his average monthly earnings for the previ- Ous 12 months.
 Engineer w. (. Norman hand ling one of the passenger runs be- tween Winslow and Gallup IS among the fortunate ones on this division to earn d lay-off with pay on account of the good re cord he has made with h1s engine. MT. Norman is now waiting transportation for himself and wife, when he will enjoy a thirty day leave of absence at the eX- pense of the Santa Fe, the com- pany having notified him that d check equal to his average earn lngs for the past twelve months is now due him.
 Engineer H. A Pearson, who runs between Newton and Tope- ka, carried off the honors among the middle division men, his en- zine making 123,OOO miles be- tween shoppings. His average earnings for the past 12 months had been $40, and he has re- ceived check for that amount together with the same promise of leave of absence for 30 days under pay.
 This seems to be acontinuatiOn of the merit system instituted some years ago by the Santa Fe and which is being gradually ex- tended so as to include employees in all branches of the service. It gives the employees an incentive to put forth their very best efforts, as they know there is a substantial reward or bonus awaiting them.
