of contact with the strainer to catch
and hold or divert drift material. These
screens should be watched and kept
clean and this trouble and expense will
be infinitesimal compared with quick
return in values. All matter caught
should be burned as soon as possible.
The Johnson grass everywhere in the
Ell PasO and upper valleys should be
cut just below the surface of ground as
soon as seen, especially in dry weather
and condition of ground.
Laws should be passed to cut it out
and if the owner fails to do so it
should be cut at public expense and
the bill of cost collected from the own
er. This to apply to the irrigated val
legs and not to other lands as this
grass will prove to be the most profit
able crop on many lands.
The careful straining out and burn
ing of grass seed wherever necessary
from the running waters of all
streams which are tributary to irrigat-
ing rivers, creeks, or canals, is clearly
the most valuable preventive, and in
this I find my hope since in the last
resort it is being applied in the open
ings which admit the water into my
own land.
It is pleasing to know that this grass
has been kept off of all of my culti-
waited land and that others who will
can do the same at little expense.

that is now needed is the acceptance
by the people of the knowledge that
the laboratory has developed about
germs and their ways, and a nation
wide and unrelenting warfare on the
bad ones. with the medical fraternity

Efforts to Master the AIicrObe.
Much will be heard at the Interna-
tiOnaI Congress of Hygiene and Demo-
graphy about what the world has been
doing during the past five years in its
efforts completely to master the mi
crobe. There are scientists everywhere
engaged in efforts to run down new
microbes, and this now is a fight
largely to prove the existence Of germs
that are too small to be seen with the
most powerful microscope. For in
stance. nothing is better proved than
the existence Of the germ OF yellow
fever and yet it is too small to be seen
even with the microscope eyes of the
laboratory. The same is true OF mea-
sles.
The laboratory expert is able to in
occulate monkeys with these microbes,
but he cannot see them The same IS
have been transmitted by these invis1-
Bile microbes, and typhus fever may
be reproduced in the laboratory in mon
keys, although the microbe which
causes it refuses to make itself known
through the microscope. Thousands OF
germs have been found and their life
histories written as accurately as are
the life histories of chickens and
sheep, but the bacteriolOgist, having
reached the limit of the power of his
microscope has set to work to locate
others by circums tantial evidence. He
has succeeded in proving the existence
OF some that cannot be seen, and he
hopes to add a long list Of others, and
incidentally to gain new insight to
diseases.

Dear Miss Fairfax;
I am Is years of age, and have been
keeping company with a girl Of the
same age for the past six months,
during which time we quarreled twice.
Each time she came back and asked me
to renew friendship, but we had a
slight disagreement about a month
ago, and she gave back the ring gave
her Is there any WY in which
could win back her love, for I love
her very much, and I think she loves
me, for she has told me SOP

really must make up it your turn to
go to her and beg pardon I am sorry
she has eaten so often OF humble pie

Time is much more valuable than

poor man can take rs hours of time

to keep SlS76 worth of time from being
entirely wasted.

DANGEROUS GRADE CROSSINGS.

DANGEROUS GRADE CROSSINGS.
Ell Paso, Sept. IT, 1912.
Editor Ell Paso Herald:
1 would like to say a few words re-
garding grade crossings in this city.
Monday morning, coming to the city on
the first Fit Blrss car, which reaches
crossings in Stanton street, about $40
o'clock, the mOtorman crossed the E. P
& S. w. tracks and, on approaching the
G. H & S. A crossing, was tagged
down by the flagman stationed at that
crossing; but, without needing the
warning, proceeded to cross in front OF
an approaching passenger train. Such
risk as this may save a few minutes
time. but might eventually cost many
lives.
