FErERIrA OR SoUDAN DURRA.
This is a new crop for New
Mexico conditions. It belongs
to the sorghum family. AS a
drought resistant crop it is
equal to milo. The fodder IS bet.
ter than milo and the seed is
equally as good. 1t requires
about the same cultural meth
DDS as the other row crops al
ready mentioned, and should be
planted at any time between
May Is and July /, depending
on moisture conditions. For
seed purposes this crop should
be planted as thinly as milo, 20
to "a inches apart in the row.
Prose- OR BROOM CORN MILLET.
No small grain or n%on-culti-
waited crop does as well during
average years as a row crop.
But prose millet and particular
ly the hog variety furnishes
good chicken and hog pasture.
Under favorable moisture con
ditions. the Black Vernonezh
variety makes excellent hay and
is a very short season crop.
millet is adapted to prac-
tically all attitudes, but had best.
be restricted to tight soils.
Prose- requires no more than
20 pounds of seed per acre,
which should be drilled in if
possible with a press-wheel
drill. Sow prose millet as
early as June 1, especially if
moisture conditions are favor
able to keep the crop growing
until the more dependable July
rains. Id the absence Of mois-
ture conditions, as described,
we advise delaying planting UNI
til as late as July 10th.
Cow PEAs-This crop is
known as Dry Farmers Alfal-
ia" It is the best leguminous
crop for attitudes below 5000
feet. The hay made from this
crop, including the peas, is al
most equal in feeding value to
alfalfa. The cultural methods
described above are suitable tc

ed. The crop should be plant
ed between June LIST and July

small seed patch of this croI
separately from the main field.

thinly, it should be given spec
ial care and must also be pro

harvesting this crop, the hes.

Special Recommendation
for Certain Crops.

above are we'll adapted to this
crop. No set rule regarding
planting time can be safely
given. With certain limitations
moisture must be the %controll-
ing factor. In some years,
early planting from April 10Th
to May 10Th has given the best
results. In other years it has
proven best in attitudes above
5000 feet to plant short-sea-
soned varieties such as Rustler
White Dent and Australian
White Flint. about June LIST
and even a little later. The
early varieties such as the two.
mentioned above, and in adj
dition, Sterling White Dent,
Minnesota King and Mexican
mot June) have not proven sat
isfactory for the lower attitudes.
We cannot advise definitely,
when to plant Dwarf Mexican
June and Hickory King, which
are the varieties that do best
below $500 feet. but it is not
often that a seed crop is made
on paintings made after June
list. To plant all Of your sup
ply Of seed at one time is a
gamble. The wise farmer who
has not enough moisture stor-
ed to tide his corn over a
probable drouth, will save at
least a part of his seed for later
planting. Seven and one-half
pounds of seed per acre is plen-
ty. The distance between
plants in the row, should aver
age 80 inches and the rows
should not be closer than 3 IL
feet. Under dry farming con-
ditions in New Mexico, above
5000 feet corn is the best grain
and silage crop.
KAFIR .-Kafr must be con-
sidered as the best combined
fodder. silage and grain crop
for attitudes below 5000 feet,
especially. if dwarf or early ma
turing varieties such as dwarf
Black-capped white and white
capped white are used. The
cultural methods described
above, are adapted to this crop.
One peck of good seed is suf-
hcient for planting 10 acres,
particularly, if a seed crop is
desired. For seed purposes
single kafr plants are close
enough in the row when they
are from "a to 80 inches apart.
Under favorable moisture con.
ditions, planting should be
done early in May, however,
June 1 is not too late.
MmO.--This crop is adapted
to attitudes but uery little high
er than 5000 feet. In the
lower attitudes it is our surest
grain crop. Planting time
will depend on the season in re-
spect to moisture. The dwarf
varieties, white and yellow are
early edough to make it advisa-
BILE not to plant before June Isl
and very often as late as July
l.. We recommend that single
plants be from 20 to "a inches
apart ia the row, the rows be.
ing 8 10 feet apart. One ano
one-half to two pounds of SEED
is sufficient to plant one acre.

SURVEY BOARD GIVES

Commission to Afford Postmaster Gen
eral Intimate knowledge Of
Department Affairs.
MR.. KRAM'S RECORD PLEASES

The object of the commission which
Postmaster General Burleson has ap-
pointed to inquire into the actual finan-
cial, physical, and working conditions of
the Postoffice Department is not TO in
Vestigate series of complaints from NAL
contents OF the office of the auditor for
the Postoffice Department, as was mad
Nertently stated yesterday morning.
In the first place, as was pointed out
yesterday at the Postoffice Department.
Fuch an investigation naturally would
come from the Treasury Department; in
the second place. Auditor krams record
for economy and efficiency in his depart
ment is considered unusually good.
The commission, which comprises the
four assistant postmasters general, is in
tended as a board of survey for the entire
department. to place the members and
the Postmaster General in closer personal
touch with the details of the big estab-
lishment and to open the way for intelli-
gent attempts to increase the efficiency
and reduce unnecessary expenditures in
The several branches of the postal service.
The arbitrary audit of a large number
of postoffce money orders was by direc-
ton of Congress on recommendation of
the Treasury Department. The money
orders affected had been subjected to two
of the three check tests usually employed
in the audit. In view of the fact that
few mistakes escape the first two checks
and that TO catch up with the work on
the third and last check would require an
expenditure of $4,000 for extra clerical
assistance. the Treasury Department rec.
commended that this part of the work on
remaining unaudited money orders be dis
pensed with. The provision was inserted
in the general deficiency bill after it had
been explained to and approved by Sem
ator Bristow. who first gained national
prominence through his work of reform IN
