PROOF POSITIVE
Of GOOD SOIL
If You Doubt What New
Mexico Can Do, Loko at
This Exhibit
WINDOW FULL OF FINE FRUITS
The u. S. Bank Has a Display
Advertisement of Great
Interest.

If any person, pilgrim, sojourner or
to the manor born, has any doubts as
to the marvellous fertility of the soil
of New Mexico, such person can
speedily have those doubts dispelled
by spending few minutes in front of
the big window of the United States
Bank & Trust Company and taking in
the magnificent display of fruit and
vegetables exhibited there under the
auspieces of the Santa Board of
Trade.
In the western corner of the win
dow is superb display of apples by
Frank M. Jones, of Santa Fe county
display which is confidently assert
ed can not be surpassed on earth. He
exhibits some thirty varieties of fall
and winter apples and has yet other
varieties to come. His Alexander ap-
pies, Mammoth and Midgets, from a
tree that is bearing fifty-six different
varieties of apples are wonders of the
grafter's art and as attracting much
| attention.
In the center of the window is a fine
assortment of vegetables from the
garden of the territorial prsion sent in
by the courtesy of Warden Cleofes Ro-
nero. The large squashes (6S and So
pounds) call forth much comment.
This exhibit demonstrated that the
soil of Santa Fe county is peculiarly
adapted to the raising of celery and
asparagus and should not fail to de-
velop lively interest in small gard
ening for the local market.
In the west-end of the window the
Indian school has a very superior ex,
hibit. A, great pumpkin weighing over
rs pounds, sugar beets weighing over
10 pounds each and other very large
vegetables show the adaptability OF
the soil for general gardening. On
either side of the great stock pumpkin
are large yellow pumpkins that recall
the pies that mother used to make
and make the passer-by wish that his
wife would take the initiative and
bake a few and refer same to him for
comparison VITA those of his child.
hood days And the rest of the win
dow is filled with magnificent dis
play of apples, prunes, pears and
peaches that challenge the world for
excellence of flavor. This fruit is all
raised in Santa Fe and Rio Arriba
counties and at proper season the
Board of Trade will send acknowledge
ments to each contributor. Meantime
this is New MeXico-the land of sun
shine, fruit and flowers, where health
is in the air and the choicest fruit
springs spontaneous from the soil. Let
every man who believes in New Mexi-
co and Santa Fe unite with the Board
of Trade and pull for the old town.
Knockers to the rear-boosters to the
front-united effort and all is well.

Price Of Butter.

The discussion given to the sub
ject Of cost OF living has directed
more or less attention to the federal
oleomargarine tax and the price ui
butter. People who are In favor Of
repeating the present oleomargariue
law have taken advantage of the
situation to loudly condemn as "un.
democratic and un.American" this
"Gurdensome tax on pure. whole.
some and nutritious food product"
They conveniently forget TO *.
plain that over ninety-soven per cent
OF the oleomargarine put upon IN"
market is taxed at only one.four'h
cent per pound. They do not explain
that only that oleomargarine that la
artiflcially colorcd IL taxed az ton
cents per pound.
Even II IL were all taxed at ten
cents per pound It would have abs0
lutely nothing to do with the priC"
OF butter after the latter r"aghu

about fourteen cents pound Ia pro

and the cost OF production would b"

be retailed at thirty cents at a hand

Looking AT the question from any
