A BIG CANTAL0UPE
SEASON At LAS
CRUCES
Increased Acreage Brings in
Another Commission Firm
and Shipments Next Summer
viii Be Large.

According to w +. Garsidc, travel.
ing freight and passenger agent for
the Santa Re in New Mexico, tho
coming season will see not only a large
increase in the acreage devoted to
c|antaloupe growing in the Mesilla val
ley, but will also bring practically
double the number OF cars shipped out
Of Las Cruces last season.
The Hillsdale Cantaloupe associa-
ton has been organized at Las cru
ces.' said Mr.. Garside. "and this
means the coming of another large
commission firm which proposes to
fully equip Itself for handling the mel
ons on "A large scale during the com
ing season. The acreage will be con-
slderably more than doubled. and
with a good season the number OF
ears viii increase in proportion. 1t
would not be surprising il six hundred
cars of melons should go out of Las
Cruces and Mesilla Park during the
coming season. The success of the
industry Is fully established. The
price paid for Las Cruces cantaloupes
last season was considerably higher
per crate than was paid for melons
from any other district. and the ma
turing of the crop. just at the time
when there is a shortage of melons,
insures the holding of this price"

The Right of Way.

In these days Of steam and gas
cars running on the highways at any
rate up to sc miles an hour, it is well
to get down to first principles and
inquire what rights, if any, people
on foot have on the highways and
streets. .'.', 49, -
BY statute and common law; by the
decisions of the courts from time
immemoriaf, every person has an
equal right to go with safety upon
any highway or road. n
1t is the business of drivers of any
vehicle to respect those rights.
Do not forget this fact.
In cities and villages where side
walks are provided for the safety of
pedestrians they are supposed to use
these instead OF the streets, but they
do not lose their right to use the
streets thereby. ~ 80

Those who have once heard Presi.

other reason.
The congregational singing was
fine the scripture reading with brief
explanations, and the plain, com

DR.. Franklin b. Hough, the first
U. S. Commissioner of Forestry, was
at Breton Woods with his Hand

Vermont library commission pre-
vailed upon him to come to Middle
bury with the same.
DR.. Winship of the journal of
Educ llion says: "No other book
that has been made-and it is safe to
say no other that will be made-can
take the place of this mastery pro-

We are glad to say that we are to

mems in our library, and we shall
never rest content till we have the

The interest manifested in library

consecration to service in striving to
meet the needs of the various towns

Are Soups Digestible2

There are varied opinions about
the digestibility of soups. Some
physicians disapprove of them for
weak stomachs, and all physicians
condemn them for obesity. Milk or
cream soups, purees they are called,
are wholesome and easily digested,
but meat soups have tendency to
give an oversupply Of uric acid, just
as has meat itself. Therefore those
with a tendency to rheumatism or
diabetes should eat sparingly of it.
Soup is thought to be more digesti-
BILE If it is eaten very slowly. Hold
each spoonful in the mouth for a
few seconds before swallowing. This
simple precaution has in many cases
enabled those who thought they
could not eat any kind of soup to
take it without bad effect.-New
