New York, July 3.-The dis
trict attorney and the city police
today began Investigations of
the Knickerbocker Ice company,
which does by far the largest ice
business here. The charge is
that the so-called ice trust'
has withheld ice from indepen-
dent dealers during the recent
prolonged hot weather, in other
words, conducted it's business in
restraint of trade. Ice riots in
the tenement districts, where
during some of the hottest days
the poor found it almost impos-
sible to buy even the smallest
quantity of ice desired for their
humble needs, have attracted at
tention to the situation and spur
red the authorities to quick
action.

Watch the Farmers

Keep your eyes on the farmers
who farmed this year with their
heads as we'll as hands, who
planted with the expectation of
raising a crop, who have clean
fields even though it has taken
lots of hard work. They are the
ones who will be benefited by the
abundance of rain this years.
There are some cases where land
broken two and three years ago
was narrowed and planted
Could crops be raised anywhere
farming in this manner An
other class plant the seed, leave
the country and expect to return
in the fall to harvest the crop.
What we need is more men who
will make farming a business,
men who will come to establish
homes and have an interest in
everything that pertains to the
development of the country.
Flowing deep and cultivating
often will bring results here the
same as in older countries. Nc

DO RH|NS
COME IN
CYCLES?
Weather men Seem to Think so,
and Rely on Statistics
for Proof

J Dr. Roth of Albuquerque, dean
| of the southwestern weather bu-
reau, in a recent interview with
DR.. B. E. Hedding, stated that
during thirty-five years official
observation of weather statistics
in Central New Mexico he had
ascertained that years of abun-
dant rainfall and years of scant
precipitation come in cycles of
seven years; that 1910 ended the
cycle of lesser precipitation and
1911 the beginning of a cycle of
much rainfall and snow. Thomas
W. Carscallen, local Forester and
custodian of Government stats
tics, who was present during the
interview, stated that his records
and personal knowledge of the
subject corroborated DR.. Roth en-
tirely with the exception that the
cycle years sometimes extended
to nine years instead of seven,
citing scientific and indisputable
data sustaining the statement.
1t is shown that blocks sawed
from trees plainly indicate cycle
periods of much growth and small
growth, aid by referring to Off
cial weather bureau reports the
fact of the wet and dry cycle
years has been positively estab-
We entered the wet pc
riod here January list. It has
been wet in Estancia Valley ever
since, and at this writing, July
4th, the farms are so wet from a
three days and nights soaking
rain that all farm work is tempo.

One cent letter postage will
probably be inagurated by the
United States postoffice depart
ments as it's next important re-
form.
This prediction made by pro-
minent business men who have
banded together to demand new
and fairer rate than that now
eXis ting is based upon develop
ments in the postal department
during the past two or three
months.
Early in May Postmaster Cen
eral Frank Hitchcock announced
that the annual deficit, which
was as high as $17, ,000,00O last
year, had been wiped out and
that the department this year
would show a surplus of at least
81 900, 900. Accompanying the
announcement came the informa-
ton that Mr.. Hitchcock S deter
efforts to run the depart
ment in businesses like manner
and the cutting out of unneces-
Sary expenses had been rewarded
by the Wiping out of the balance
from the wrong side of the sheet. |
COlncident with the announce
ment that there would be nc de-
ficit this year, facts were given
out by the department which |
tend to show that an even great
or saving will be effected during
The coming year. For the past
,en weeks, ending July | the de-
)artment heads have been con-
lucting an exhaustive series of
and tests at various
postal centers regard
ng second class mail matter.
At st. Louis, for instance, twas
demonstrated beyond argument
hat the government could effect
great saving by shipping the
arger part Of its second class
natter in freight cars rather
han in mail cars, as has been the
practice heretofore. 1t is intend
