Tales Of the Street


The smallest book in the world is
only half the size Of a postage stamp
1t is in the possession of the Earl OF
Dufferin. and is an edition OF the
sacred book Of the Sikhs.
An enterprising citizen of Page has
invented an ingenious machine which
is destined to be Of general use and will
probably bring the inventor fame and
fortune The machine consists Of an
aeroplane to which is attached an
immense vacuum cleaner, the latter be-
ing operated by the same power which
propels the flying machine, ana the
suction arrangement is lowered to the
ground by means Of two flexible tubes.
1t Is designed for cleaning city streets
and 1t not only does the work rapidly,
but the usual dust with its contaminat-
ing disease germs is disposed OF and
traffic on the busy streets is interrupt
ed less than it is by the present modes
Of cleaning.
A representative of the city authort.
ties OF Chicago Is already at Page, it
is understood, negotiating for several
OF these machines and 1T is probable
they win soon be in general use in the
larger cities.

elers OF this sort from the United
States seldom fall beneath 10000 a
year. And the steamship men say
travellers OF this type carry at least
$1,000 each out Of the country.
Second cabin passengers in 1903
numbered nearly 10000. and their av-
erage amount of money is said to be
$500. steerage or third-class passen-
gers totaled 10000, and each is said
to have carried at least $500.
The grand total carried by all these
travellers could not have been less than
,$1s6, 100000. Added to this is the $780,
100000 sent to foreign countries for
the maintenance of relatives-and the
purchase Of property which foreigners
buy with money earned in the United
States.
Italy, Holland, France, Germany,
Hungary, Sweden, Norway, England
and Ireland are all Fronting largely by
the expenditures Of American money
on local improvements.
National pride should check this
ruinous outpouring Of American
money. Travellers should not make
which enrich the foreign
shopkeepers-but do not afford any
better articles than can be had in the
United States.
1t is high time that the United States
should foster a movement for the con-
sumption of home made goods. No
,ity whose residents go away from
home to buy their supplies can pros
per greatly. Neither can nation
thrive when its well-to-do classes buy
supplies abroad.

Monthly Trades Day for
Farmers.

county in Texas has been greatly
benefited by Monthly Trades
Day" at the county seat, and sug-
gests the same thing for Luna
county, which is so rapidly coming
to the front as an agricultural re-
gion. The first Monday in every
month II is the custom of the pro-
gressive farmers to gather at the
county seat. bringing along any
thing they want to trade and let
ting other people know what they
want to trade for.
In several Texas counties this da,
is looked on as the biggest day o.
the month. The farmers all &c
acquainted and they find that al
exchange of ideas, as well as com
modities, is very beneficial to all.
IL is an idea that is certainl
worth considering.

HIS CORN PROVES II

p. l.. Rose of the Hondale re-
gion was a welcome GRAPHIC visit
or, Friday, very, very welcome. He
had in his possession, willing and
ready to transfer ownership to the
editor, some extra fancy Alabama
Sweet watermelons and Rocky Ford
cantaloupes that would have made
old Rocky" himself turn green
with envy.
But better than'all this, he had
ears of Mexican June corn that
yielded so enormously on his farm
this year.
The ears were solid and well ker-
neled and looked good to the many
who saw them.
Mr.. Rose says the corn was
planted July first and has had a lit
tie less than 8 inches of water. He
plants the rows % feet apart and
the hills Is inches. In order to
report the magnificent yield, he
counted the ears on row rs feet
in length and found 81 fully devel-
oped sound ears, and by making
computations, estimates easily l00
bushels Of ears per acre.
Looks like some corn, don't il.

avenue south of the Mahoney
stores, and are going to keep a full
line of paints, wall paper and paint

In this connection 1t might be
well to note that Mr.. Douglass has
proven up on his fine quarter sec-
ton 81 miles southwest Of the citv,
and has driven into town at least
once a.day during the period of five
years necessary to make final proof
without communication. 1t seems
like a big story, but those little
daily trips figure up to better thar
10000 miles when taken al
together.

New Mexico grows the finest
apples In the world, so when people
are casting about to get a state

blossom. 1t is one of the sweetest
blooms in creation and means some
thing.
Every time the apple blossom is
mentioned in connection with the
new state il would remind people
of the superior fruit grown in the
Sunshine State.
We are growing the finest apples
under the sun, sun is what makes
them fine, so why not let the bloom
boost the fruit.

blossom as a candidate for State
Flower.

OF course the county commission
ers will be voted on by the whole

his great desire for better highways

affairs Of Luna county gained by
his long residence and active partic-

tion. The gallant old colonel
knows every crook and turn Of the
roads from the border to the Mog-
ollons and would stand for nothing
except Improvement along all lines.

Why not Have a Luna County
Fair Association?

1t has been suggested by many
residents of Luna comfy that there
be organized n permanent fair asso-
citation, with regular officers and
directors and everything that goes
to make up a permanent agricul-
tural and horticultural society that
will be known and recognized all
over the southwest.
We have abundant proof that no
better agricultural or horticultural
products can be grown in the world
than Luna county produced this
year, rnd the yield next year will
be multiplied many times.
The Mimbres Valley always works
on a certainty. We have water
when we want it, where we want it
and in any quantity desired. Des-
troying storms are unknown to this
region and mountain floods are
impossible.
There is no question concerning
the organization of permanent
fair association in the not very dis.
tant future and it is argued with
good reason that we ought to get in
the game early.
While land is cheap suitable
grounds should be secured and
preparations go forward with all
possible speed to erect suitable
buildings and a grand stand and
make arrangements to construct 9
haf-mile track for racing events.
There are 100 men in Luna coun
ty who would take one or two
shares of stock in such an enter
prise, with the understanding tha
the stock should be retired wher
the earnings make it possible.
Farmers and others. think OF
these things.
