democrats Should Beware
OF Barnacles

Failing dismally in his efforts to secure
the denomination of c. c. HolbrooI { re-
publican) to the District bench Jesse Ste
phenson haStens to get in out of the rain and
tenders his services to the Democratic choice
Of Rio Grande' county-the Hon. Jesse c.
Wiley of Del Norte.
With soft, sweet music, Mr. Stephenson
in what he construed as the psychological mo-
ment, sought to have all opposition quashed
by naming Mr.. Holbrooll as the choice of the
San Luis Valley Bar association.
In all Valley newspapers, except the Mon
tie Vista JOURNAL, appeared semi-eulogistic
accounts of the Bar bouquet presentation.
Now, this primrose path seems vacated
even by the loyal" Stephenson who forsakes
Mr.. Holbrook with the same hot and wicked
haste that marked his former delivery of
certain Democratic endorsement.
And now comes this tempter robed like
the VIOLIN sleeps clothing-and seeks to
counsel the Democratic party of Rio Grande
county. Not only that, but past performance

the ability of the tepary to germ mate quickly in the presence of low moisture content of the soil and hence the better stands of this crop on dry lands, The tepary is also able to withstand protracted seasons of fdrouth without perman- ent injury, returning to full vigor immediately when the rains come. Beans do not possess this ability to a marked degree. The tepary is also inured to the greatest extremes of our summer temperatures and will bloom and set seed during any month from May to November. On the other hand, when the bloom ing period of beans happens to fall within a season of extreme heat, the buds will for the most part drop without setting pods. For these reasons the tepary Is more sure and dependable crop, often giving fair returns when beans are a total failure. With an ample supply of water, good soil and other conditions favorable, tepa ries should yield from 700 to 1900 pounds per acre. However, 1900 pounds per acre have been report ed from Colorado Valley near Yuma. Under dry-farm conditions yields of 45O to TOO pounds have been reported,

lCommun unicatedl

To THE EDITOR OF THE OASIS:
 In the last issue of your paper there appeared an article entitled High Finance" which stated a few facts with regard to local in- stitution and omitted many facts concerning the same institution which might have been included, which had they been would have put an entirely different aspect upon the proposition.
 The facts in the matter are as follows: The NogaIes Gas Com pany was organized by local people who although having very little actual cash did have some $30,000 worth of property, mostly real estate. To promote the enterprise they borrowed money to the ex- tent of about $20,000, giving secur- ity on the real estate They sold some 5000 worth of stock, also $3.000 of the bonds for S2 ,00O. Then the company borrowed some $10,000 on bonds and notes. The gas making machinery was purch- ased for $24,000 worth of bonds. The company was in debt for sup plies to the amount of some S5,0O0 when appointment of a receiver forced the company out of business, So it will be seen that there were laid out about $42,000 in cash and actual values beside the SPA ,000 invested in the plant. Compare the foregoing figures with other gas companies with plants of simi- lar capacity-say Douglas, Arizona for example: That enterprise was organized with q capital stock of $125,000, and a bonded debt of $75,000 was incurred.
 The principal promoter made no money out of the Nogales Gas Company; on the contrary in an effort to make it a success he lost al he invested in the enterprise. Were all corporations handled on the same basis of honesty of intent, as was the Nogales Gas Company, neither Socialists nor anyone else would have any complaint.

The Tepary Bean Is Monsy-Maksr.
Florence Bladel

Ui lRt HI III 6 diSbllSV0 Ill Al lGOllhi together with the increased use of pumped water for irrigation, have created q need for leguminous crop which, used in rotation with grain or forage planting, will maintain the nitrogen and humus content of the soil and at the same time provide money return which Is sure and profitable. The ex perience of practical farmers throughout Arizona and New Mex leo has for years demonstrated the fact that no crop so we'll fills this demand as the growing of dry shell beans. Being a countrywide food staple they have a steady market which is little influenced by local conditions other than transporta- tion charges. As corn in Illinois, cotton in Texas or wheatin Kansas represent to their producers pro. ducts of staple value, so may the dry.farmers of the Southwest, and those itrigating with artesian and pumped waters, look to the bean as a money crop which at all times may be surely and readily turned into cash.
 There is considerable difference of opinion as to the relative palat- ability of beans and teparies. Among the Indians and Mexicans, the pink hean is preferred to the tepary as they say it has better flavor Thos9 people. however, make tue same difference between the pink bean and the white navy which is shipped in from the East. Teparies should he soaked twelve hours before cooking during which time they swell to at least twice their original volume and more than double in weight In this respect they markedly surpass other beans. We'll cooked teparies are light and mealy and have a rich bean-like aroma. Boiled and baked with bacon or mashed and added to soups they form most accepta ble dishes. To such as are fond of the onion, a small amount of the vegetable finely chopped and stirred in during boiling makes pleasing addition.
 The superiority of the tepary over other beans for planting in the Southwest is exhibited in its great CT productivity when grown under similar conditions. This state ment is not only true in irrigated sections, but even more marked in regions devoted to dry.farming. h nine experiments in Arizona cover ing almost every condition of soil culture and water supply and ex tending over three years, the aver age yield of the teparies has been slightly more than four times the average for varieties of the kidney bean. The details of these com parative tests are shown in tht following table. The experiments at Tucson were under the persona supervision of the writer. The datt from experiments at Yuma, art furnished by Director E H. Forbes while those from McNeal wer' taken from statements by Prof. K w. Clothier in the Twenty-firs Annual Report of this Station.
