EQUALS BEST BARON TOLD
Achievements of Modern Science Make
Story More Incredible Than Any
of Munchsusen's.

Baron Munchausen's famous book
OF travels was published in 1885, ex-
actly a century and quarter ago.
That is not very long time, says the
New York Evening Post But suppose
Munchausen had professed to carry
his travels into an undiscovered land,
where science and invention had had
start of a century or two as COM
pared with Europe; and suppose that
he had told of an invention by which
the exact picture of an object was
permanently impressed upon a plate
by brief exposure to light; that at
first 1t took some minutes of ex-
posure to make the picture. but that
year by year methods were found Tor
increasing the sensitiveness of the
plates. until at last picture could be
obtained in an almost infinitesimal
fraction of second; that favorite
amusement of the people was to look
at a swift succession of pictures OF
this kind, portraying persons and
things in motion, which produced upon
the eye the precise impression of the
original living scene; but that some
exhibitors of such scenes got into
trouble because the actors in them
had INDUCED in vile language, forget
full Of the fact that the motion OF their
lips was perfectly reproduced, and
that deaf mutes had been taught to
read the lips Would not this story
have been regarded as equaling in IN
credibility and surprising in gro
tesqueness. almost anything the baron
actually put into his book?

"Yes-1435." answers the starter

"Since last May. Want to see him?"

Warming the EGGS.

There was once an old lady in
Scotland who kept few hens. As
she lived close to the house in which
a church minister lived. he asked her
to send him two new-lGid eggs every
morning, and he would pay her for
them.
So the old lady sent her girl to the
minister's house every morning with
two eggs. and the minister's servant
always thought the eggs were newly
laid because they felt quite warm, as
if they had just been taken from the
hens nest.
But one day the eggs we're cold, SO
the servant asked; Are the eggs
fresh today. Janey? They do not
seem warm"
The simple girl looked at the maid
and then said: "Ou. ay, they're quite
fresh. only my mother could not get
the cat to sit on them this morning.

SATURDAY. MAY Is

Alfalfa in the TT. Sumner val
ley for the next five years will be
one Of the most profitable crops
produced; that is if harvested in
large acreage, but if a man has
only forty acres or less he will be
wise to plant an orchard and use
the land between the trees TO
grow vegetables or any other
profitable crop which yields a
good profit to the acre. Of these
cantaloupes and sweet potatoes
are the best and most profitable,
next to these the mexican pin
to" beans are the best producers
end will te in great demand, as
this bean has been found to yield
very heavy per acre ane the price
will never be below five cents
per pound.
The alfalfa grown in this local
ity has been spoken of highly,
not only by people of this valley,
who would naturally say every
thing in regard to its good qua'i-
~. but by men who have been
connected with alfalfa raising in
many other PARTS of New Mexico
ard Colorado. For instance Mr..
Bowden, manager of the farm
er's association Of the Mesiila
valley. said the Ft. Sumner al
falta is the choicest ! have seen
in the west; the leaves are full
and large, and the stems slender
And these are the principal quail
jties which make it so choice. .

acres of alfalfa planted in tie

BEAUTIflING The SCHOOL GROUNDS

Great interest is now being
taken by the people in the devel.
Opment of the new state. Eve y
section in New Mexico is enthu-
siastic over the subject Of new
roads, which are certainly a pc
tent factor not only in the davel-
ppment of the country but in ad-
ing to the home comforts of the
rural population. The develop
il1ent of our agricultural possibil-
tiles is attracting attention from
every quarter of the country.
The educational features are
being improved very rapidly.
Yet with all this advancements
ofimprovementon on our conditions,
there is one thing that is of little
Importance in connection with
our schools, which has been woe
fully neglected; that is, the beau
tifying of the school grounds.
Why have not the school grounds
been made mere attractive? Is
it because of the lack of funds
or lack of interest along that line
or because of unfavorable climatic
conditions? Whatever the cause
may have been in the past, let
US try and improve this state Of
affairs. Remember that the sur
Founding or the environment are
potent factors in the growth and
development of living beings;
whether plant, animal, or man.
BY hay ng attractive school
grounds, we can do much to
familiarize the New Mexico school

appreciation fer the beauties of

grounds be made more attractive
and beautiful for the school child
ren? The first thing necessary
| for success is public spirit arc
community harmony. Once the
interest and cooperation of the
people and school authorities is
secured, the rest Of the work can
be easily carried out. To be exact
in the planting Of the grounds,
a plan of the place should be had.
Always begin with the funda-
mentals, and not with the details.
The place when planted should
mean something; it should be a
picture. Do not crowd the CEN
ter, but always keep it open.
The walks Should be laid out
with some thought of the con-
5enience for the children.
For school grounds, the natural
style of planting should be adopt
ed, as tits the simplest and best.
The planting should be irregular
and natural, hiding from view
the disagreabla features of the
place. Plant on the sides and
back, or in the direction OF the
prevailing wind if it can be done
without obstructing the view of
the place. Group the paintings
as much as possible but if the
grounds are too small to permit
massing, plant single specimens,
always setting them in the lower
places. Do not scatter the trees
hit and miss over the grounds,
but make room for the children
to play, and at the same time
make a picture cut Of the place

fulness. Flowers are the trim
mings TO the larger paintings,
but are not recommended for
school grounds. 1t takes too {
much work to grow them, and I
oftentimes they cause more
trouble than they do good.
: Since all school ground plant
ing must be done under irriga-
ton, and frequently with a very
limited amount of irrigation, it
is OF the utmost Importance to
select the hardest plants possible.
Do not, then, select rare species;
but plant those which are the
commonest, because they are as
rule the cheapest, the hardest,
0est adapted to the local condi-
ions, and most likely to grow
he best.
TT ere are two classes of trees,
IS far as their longevity is con-
the long and short lived
kinds. The latter are generally
he fastest growers, but at the
anne time, they require a great
zeal more water and care. The
'oplar. cottonwood, sycamore
nd catalpa are some of these
rees. The locust, elm, ash and ;
are some of the long |
wed trees; but they are slow in t
leir g.'oWth. In the planting cf
chool grounds, and especially in
he borders and masses, different
inds of trees should be used; S
he fast growers for quick effect. S
nd the slower growers for per, c
lanent use, Hardy evergreens,

MRS. |. B. DAMsBY DEAD
Peaceful Ending of a Useful aE<;
Beautiful Christian Life.

Mrs. Lou B. Dansby, widow of the
late Noah w. Dansby, died at the
home Of her son, Mr.. H. p. Dansby,
at Steep Hollow, at o'clock yester-
day morning. Just as the first streaks
of glorious day were heralded from
the east, her tired but beautiful spirit
mounted the shafts of golden light
and was waited home to God.
Mrs. Dansby had been i'll for a long
time, for four or five years, and for
many months had been confined to
her bed. During all this illness no
mother ever had better care, a more
sleepless solicitude and tenderer min
istering than she, from those who
were near and dear to her, and this
assurance to her mother heart was a
blessed comfort and stay during her
last days. For months it was known
that thee end was only a matter OF
time. The thought had no terrors for
her, but for the living there is no such
thing as preparation for this great
ordeal, and the foreknowledge did not

their great sorrow.
Mrs. Dansby was daughter of the
late Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Peters,
early settlers of the Steep Hollow
community She was native of Lou
isiana and was 81 years of age. She
came to this county with her parents
when quite young and was reared in
the community where she lived nearly
'all her life, and where she died. As
a girl she was sweet spirited, bright,
gentle, sympathetic, and none knew
her but to love her. AS a woman and
mother she was charitable, neighbor-
ly, self-sacrificing, and her pure, Chris
tian life was an inspiration and a
henediction to all. She was faithful
member of the Baptist church, and
that unfaltering trust that taught her
how to live soothed her in her long
illness, and was a pillow of rest in
death.
She is survived by an only son, Mr..

Nels J.. Nelson, the world-famed bird
man, will give an exhibition in the

At last Bryan is to have a real avie-

ahead OF time, bringing his Curtiss BIZ
plane and a staff of mechanics. The
aviator will ordinarily fly from twenty
minutes up, weather permitting Of
course, and will attain an altitude Of
not less than one hundred feet He
will also fly as close to the ground as
ii is possible TO do, and should the
weather interfere all those purchasing
tickets will be given rain checks for
