To use the scientific word-what Is

The best way Of making such a
measurement was invented I'm 1896
by a celebrated English savant, Henry
Cavcndish.
C%avendish's method was an indirect
one. The force that draws n body to

ton Of the power known as gravita-
ton, We know how to measure this
power, and everybody is familiar with
its manifestations.
Everybody, on the earth or off. at
tracts every other body. The amount
of the attraction depends only on tho
mass OF the two bodies that attract
each other and the distance between
them.
Cavendish eliminated the earth as a
distributing factor by making his two
bodies attract each other In n hori-
Zcntal direction. The earth's attrac-
ton Is. Of course. vertical. He tool n
long, thin stick. very light and six
feet in length, and suspended II hori-
zontally by a silver wire fastened to
It's middle. To each end Of the rod he
attached little balls or knots OF lead.
The bodies that were to attract
these two knobs were two big balls
Of lead. lie arranged his apparatus
so that at a given signal he could
bring the large balls close up to
knobs at the ends of the stick. one
on one side Of the knob. one on
the other side of the knob at the other
end.
He found that when he did this
each knob drew toward the big lead
ball near 1t. swinging the wooden
rod round on its wire support. With
delicate instruments he measured how
much the rod and the wire twisted
out Of place. Thus he could tell what
was the force Of attraction-the force
Of gravitation-pulling the knobs to-
ward the lead balls. He knew how
much the earth would attract the lit
tie knobs-that ia. he knew their
weight; he knew how much material
there was in the large lead balls he
used, the ratio OF the quantity of ma
terial in the earth to the quantity In
the balls OF lead followed from the
simple laws established by Isaac New

THE RIGHT SORT

It's refreshing in this day of
frenzied business methods and
selfish motives to run across a
man, the sincerity of whose pur-
pose in Offering encouragement
to his fellowsis unquestioned.
A great deal has been done
along the line of boosting New
Mexico through individual effort
and in advertising through the
mails, but too often these methods
lose much of their effectiveness
because the careful observer can
discern selfish motives.

The other was a civil case in
which E. E. Post Of Indianapolis,
Indiana, sues A. S. Bushkevitz as
agent for Vincent Bushkevitz of
Chicago, to recover on a land
deal in which plaintiff claims
fraud and misrepresentation.
The land in question is the bot
tom of the big lake in Union Val
ley, and plaintiff claims it has
been under from 4 TO 90 feet of
water at times since the deal, and
is not available farm land nor al
falfa land as represented to him,
and that the title is imperfect.
Dispositions bearing on the case
are being taken, and the matter
will be settled in a higher court.

FARMER AND CHICKEN FANCIER.
But here is one of our own dry
farmers whose sincerity and
honesty of purpose in boosting
New Mexico is so apparent that
one of our greatest eastern dai
lies has published his articles and
one of the best western magazines
has ask d him for thousand
word article descriptive of our
section.
And mark you-his writings
are plain and truthfal and depend
on these virtues alone for their
effectiveness. He simply des-
cribes conditions as they are
that he is actually farming, and
that after some four years of ex-
perience is convinced beyond any
doubt that New Mexico, particu-
larly this section, will eventually
and in the near future become a
solid, profitable farming com
munity.
If you are actually satisfied
that we are on the road to sue
cess, get busy and let folks know
about it. We need more bona
fide farmers and the way to gel
them is to employ the simple but
effective methods of this sincerely
satisfied dry farmer.
