COUNTRY AWAKE TO DANGER
for censumptIves 10 Most
Gratifying.

The growth Of tho crusade against
tuberculosis in tho United States Is
shown to good advantage in the two
directories that have been issued by
the National Association for the Study
and Prevention Of Tuberculosis and
the ono in preparation. The first tu-
beculosis- directory published In 1904.
by the tuberculosis committee Of the
New York Charity Organization Socie-
ty and the National Association listed
1873 sanatoria and hospitals for con-
sumptives in the United States. for
some of which preliminary provision
only has been made. The combined
capacity of these institutions was
only 5000 beds. Thirty-two special
dispensaries and thirty-nine anti-tu-
berculosis organizations summed up
practically all Of tho fighting force
enumerated In tho first directory.
The second directory was prepared by
the National Association for the Study
and Prevention Of tuberculosis and
published under the auspices OF the
Russell Sage Foundation in August.
1908. This directory listed 240 sana-
toria and hospitals. an increase OF
107 from the former directory; 15S
dispensaries. an increase Of 1876: and
1876 associations. an increase OF 156.
Tho number OF hospital beds listed
in 1908 was 14.014.
The new directory that will be Is
sued soon, will list over 400 sanatoria
and hospitals with a bed capacity OF
nearly $4,000: more than 900 special
tuberculosis dispensaries; and fully
450 anti-tuberculosis associations and
committees. Since the first directory
was issued in 1904. the increase in
the number Of agencies fighting con-
sumption aggregates nearly 500 per
cent
Tho National Association for the
Study and Prevention Of Tuberculosis
would like to get in touch with all
agencies engaged In the fight against
tuberculosis, in order that they may
be listed in the new directory.

Broom Corn New Industry.

Greeley.-An industry new to Wel1
county, but which from present indi-
cations bids well to revolutionize dry
farming, is that OF raising broomcorn
for the manufacture OF brooms. The
growers will not have to go outside OF
Weld comfy for a market, either, for
ID. A. Arnold of Orchard has started a
broom factory on a small scale and
although he has Just begun on his
first season, is meeting with such en-
couragement and success that inside
of two or three years he expects to
interest large amount of capital.
either local or eastern, and to build
a factory. probably at Greeley.
Mr. Arnold lives on the Isaac
Straus place near Orchard. and this
year put in twenty acres of broom
corn. A few of his neighbors were
persuaded to plant their irrigated land
to the same crop, with the result that
he has the product of some fifty acres
which he is making up into brooms.
They are good brooms. too, carefully
made and OF superior quality. Al
ready Mr.. Arnold has two helpers in
his little factory.
Next year he plans to put in eighty
acres of corn himself and to secure
contracts for enough to make $50
acres.

The Diamond coal mine at Gallup is
now producing one hundred tons OF

At the present time the activity in
the Mogollons has increased over 100

The Rosedale Mining & Milling
Company at Rosedals, Socorro county.
contemplates the construction OF q
new plant.
The Ginnity lease on the Black
Butte ground. Goldfield district. is in
fine grade milling ore. and extensive
shipments will soon be in progress.
The magnetic plant OF the Tri-Bul-
lion Company. Cooney district. has
been shut down owing to the stripping
OF some OF the gears on the roaster.
On the Stray Dog claim, Manhattan,
Percy Nash and b. Francisco are oper-
ating the old Hudson lease. They are
hoisting $50 ore out of the 75-foot
shaft.
The Socorro Mines was the first
company in the Cooney district to use
modern equipment throughout its
plant, and also to install electric pow
er for the operation Of its mine and
mill.
Assays from the Twin Peaks prop
erty, Lordsburg district. taken across
vein four feet wide, yielded $4S per
ton, part of the value being an ounce
and half in gold. From another
place, where the vein Is only three
feet wide the assay was $267, most OF
the value being gold.
The Rincon Valley New Mex) Rec
ord says: "Prospectors and capital
lists have been coming quietly to
Engle and going out to the Black
range section. Rumors have been re-
Gently verified by reports of rich
strikes in some of the well known
properties. In the United States
Treasury, they have struck four foot
vein at the bottom of a 260 foot shaft
which runs over $1,000 to the ton in
gold and silver. They have over $780,
900 worth of ore blocked out in the
mine, and an approximate estimate of
100000 in gold and silver on the
dump"

the result Of q dust explosion in the
workings.
Every effort is being made to reach

Four men were killed outright and
four others were injured at the en-

The explosion occurred in what is
known as the No. entry. The men
entombed were working in Nos. /, 2.

Cured. The death list may run as
high as sixty. since there are ten

still mystery. General Manager Muir
ray thinks II was due to fire in an
entry, but what caused the fire Ia un-
known. Fire bosses think 1t may have
been caused by miner being care
less with his lamp and setting fire to
the canvas In that entry. State inspect

animation of the mine to determine
whether II was coal dust explosion.
He found a little caking in the vein
near wi ere the fire started, but not
enough TO have been the cause Of the
explosion. The miners use the open
style OF lamp. The safety lamp is not
used. the company officers say. be-
cause OF the absence OF gas.
