ATTORNEY MOwRY SUS-
F" TANNED BY SUPREME COURT

W. F. Mowry received advance no.
tice this week to the effect that the
supreme court had reversed the judg-
ments given by Judge Pike in the
district court several years ago in
the case of Lillian Hartman johnson
VS.. the Montezuma Valley Irrigation
district, and of G. NJ. Longenbaugh
vs.. the Montezuma Valley Irrigation
district. 1t will be recalled that these
parties brought suit to take their
lands out of the district alleging they
had water right from Hartman draw
NJ Mowry who was at that time
attorney for the district resisted the
suits but was defeated in the lower
court. We have not the opinion before
US but from the notice sent out ii
would appear that the district and Mr.
Mowry had won a complete victory in
the matter. If we can secure copy
of the opinion by next week we will
place the important parts before our
readers as we know the question is
one of vital importance to the people
of this vailey.-Cortez Herald.

appeals must be made; the appeals of

appeals must be made; the appeals of
sef-interest and pride and such other
susceptible sides Of human nature as
may be manipulated, to induce action.
In many ways the public must be led
like child, and the enlightened leader
who has community development at
heart must not hesitate to play the
role of demagog, remembering that
the demagog, when successful, is call
ed statesman. Manipulating the pub
lie will for its own good may be done
with all honesty and honor.
The object to be kept in view is the
development of live, ardent public
spirit. In order to get the people in
terested in a common plan it may be
necessary first to get them interested
In each other. All the forces of SYM
pathy, altruism and mutual under
standing must be brought into play.
Public entertainments, street fairs, in
dustrial competitions, clubs, church So
cieties, fraternal organizations, news
papers, school entertainments are
useful in bringing the people together
and developing mutual understanding
and common desires. Such institu-
tions, particularly the newspapers, are
excellent hot-beds for the growth of
local patriotism and the molding of
opinion. These and all other organ
lied social influences should be en-
listed in the movement for commu-
nifty development.
When public spirit has been aroused
and nodded into shape for action, the
battle is more than half won. Then
specific plans for community develop
ment may be suggested, and the army
of citizens will march forward to
achievement under the impetus of
common motives and desires. The So
cial environment then lies within the
power of the citizens to do with it
what they will. Having created the
monster, il is theirs to control it. In
telligence and cooperation are the
magic wand which transforms hard
times and social stagnstion into prog
ress and prosperity. The "booster"
spirit is like the faith that moves
mountains; it is the great wonder
working genie of modern times and
may be aroused in any community by
few wise leaders. When prosperity
begins to shower its favors the lead
ers will have their reward

CRYING BEST EXERCISE
FOR THE BABY'S LUNGS

If you'll take the trouble to look up
any good book on ''how to take care
of babies," you will find it put down
in black and white that in young in
fants the cry expands the lungs, and
good health makes it necessary that
1t be repeated for a little while each
day in order to keep them well filed
out. Thirty minutes day, not all at
one time Of course, but in the aggre-
gate and on the average. is generally
not too long time. 1t is not the
moan Of a puny, sick baby, but the
strong loud cry of one who intends
to be heard.
Often the baby looks flushed and
angry while he is indulging in this
and in strong, healthy child it
amounts to scream, and most any
one who has ears can hear it. This
goes with good health. It's baby's
way Of taking his constitutional, and
he feels better after it. No one should
let baby cry needlessly, however,
and the nurse should always be sure
that baby is not in pain, and that no
pin or other annoyance is troubling

HALF MILLION FAT JOBS
TO BE FILLED BY WILSON

Of the vast horde of employees on
Uncle Sans annual pay roll, num-
bering, according to the most recent
compilation, All 1922, exclusive of the
members of congress and their en-
ployes and exclusive of the officers
and enlisted men of the army, navy
and marine corps, President Wilson
will have the direct appointment ap-
proximately Of 1000 persons.
Of the other 100000 there were un-
der civil service regulations, 262, SOS
up to few months ago when Presi-
dent Taft by an executive order
placed about $4,000 fourth-class post
master in fourteen states, also under
civil service. That action carried the
last of the fourth-class postmasters
under civil service, the others in the
remaining states having been placed
there by President Roosevelt. This
most recent order has increased the
number of government employees pro-
teSIeu oy ciNH SciFiSe EuieS W nedily
100000. Whether or not the order will
be permitted to stand is matter for
future determination.
The 100000 approximately who
are not subject to the civil service
regulations include the II 900 appoint
ees of the president direct, about 1900
persons under the engineer depart
ment of the war office, 1000 under
the quartermaster's department of the

rections, too, are reliable. The nur-
seryman is interested in the success
of his patrons and stands ready at
all times to offer advice and sug-
gestions. New varieties offered for
the first time should be tested, but the
wise gardener continues, to a great
extent, depending for his main crops
on varieties that have already proved
their worth with him. Still, it must
be remembered that Improvement pro-
ceeds rapidly these days and that, in
a season or two, If the planter fails
to experiment, he may not be gain
ing from his ground all that It is ca
pable of producing for him.
In intensive" culture, it must be
remembered that the crops, succeed
ing one another Immediately, are
drawing all the plant food from the
ground. Consequently, when a crop
natures and preparations are made
to follow it with another-which, of
course, is to be of another group en-
tirely--some attention must be paid
to the fertilizer problem. One can
not expect to grow good cabbage in
soil that has been exhausted by a
crop Of corn. To supply food imme-
diately, fertilizers must be employed
that present their food at once to
the plants. Nitrate of soda, for ex-
ample, is Immediately available and
affords the nitrogen that is most gen.
orally first exhausted. Bone meal,
wood ashes and pulverized manure are
all good. The latter is to be highly
recommended and, at the same time,
affords excellent material from which
liquid manur" may be very readily
made.

ARE you GOING TO HAVE A
GARDEN THIS SPRING

The time to lay the foundation for a
successful vegetable garden makes it's
advent long before the snow ceases to
fly. In this month, as matter of
fact, some Of the most important work
is accomplished. 1t Is then that the
wise gardener plans his seasons cam
paign, studies the catalogues, makes
up the lists of seeds he wants and
sends in his orders. And the earlier
this is done the better, for, before
March has passed into April, the man
who wants early produce from his
garden patch has flats filed with
growing plantlets and is busy shifting
these into broader quarters or thin
ming cut the surplus.
There are some general rules that
experience lays down as the best to
follow. In the first place, the garden
should be well planned. 1t should be
known what crops are first to go into
the ground and what is to follow them.
Every available inch of space should
be employed-and twice or three times
over. In order to raise the most pos
sible from any given area careful
planning is necessary. And, as for
planning, aside from consideration of
succession, bear in mind that the best
results are to be achieved by observ-
ing these rules:
Plant in rows, not in beds.
Group vegetables that mature at
the same time or attain the same
height.
Group the low-growing vegetables
so that they will not be shaded from
the sun by taller-growing varieties.
Practice rotation. Do not plant
corn in the same place where corn
was grown last season. Root crops
should find new location. The cab
bage tribe, peas and beans, salad
plants, tomatoes. peppers and egg
plants should all go in new places.
The quality of seed to be ordered
is matter of very considerable i'm
portance. For a family of six, the
following list will answer all purposes
and, for smaller families, or for larger,
the list may be divided or multiplied
