A rumor was circulated here early Thursday morning that Conductor A. Bird had dropped dead in Los Angeles. It seems that the report started in Need les and friends of Mir. Birds were very much worried about the same.

 We wish to inform the public that MT. Bird came back to Winslow Friday morning very much alive. saying he never felt Peeter in his life and could not account for the rumor.

ALBUQUERQUE MAY HAVE NEW WOOL
 PLANT
Option Secnred on Rio Grande
 Property.

St. Paul, Minn. ,-Augus Brown president of the Minnesota Wool Growers association, announed tonight that the state associat- ion of wool growers of Wiscon- sin, Minnesota, Wyoming and New Mexico have formed a CO., operative association and have obtained an option on the Rio Grande Woolen mills plant at Albuquerque, N. M., where the wool of these states will be sent for manufacture. The object of the organization is to secure the highest possible prices for the growers.
 "We will do all kinds of knitt- ing and manufacturing" said Mir. Brown. "There is no reason except trust control for the de- cline in the price of wool. Far mers of these four states will not have to lose a cent now as the company will sell direct to the consumer, using the catalo- que system, and three or four profits will thus be saved.

Dry Farming in the West.

Whenever the dry-farm boom strikes a community it means the rapid rise in land values and a fat reaping for the real estate man. Farmers who have been prosperous and conservative in their former homes join the rush to help sell lands to newcomers, and the inevitable result of at. temping to conduct a realestate office in the city and a farm from three to ten miles from town. is the neglect of one or both. The faith of some of the newcomers to the West in the productive powers of the semi arid lands is marvellous. By merely scratching the soil before planting crops and by employing farming methods that would put to shame the most slovenly farmer on the rich lands of the corn belt, remunera- tive returns are expected from land which the pioneers of the West have maintained for years is fit for nothing but grazing.
 In dry farming, as Tn all other lines of business, the ultimate outcome will involve the selective process by which only those tt- ted to survive will become per manent occupants and tillers of the soil. In some of the older dry farming regIons, as those east of Denver, Colorado, and in the valleys of Washington and Ore gon, the stage of exploitation is already past and the farming operations are now upon a per manent basis. s.-Pacific Monthly.

with marabOut or maline, can be termed
garnishings.
