The Grange and the

WILL INCREASED PRODUCTION
SOLVE THE FARMERS PROB
LEMS7
By II. L. Loucks

In dealing with this phase OF the
question we must keep in mind that
1t Is more than q local or state prob
lem. That It Is national and interna-
tional, hencet the worlds production
must be taken into consideration. The
crops Of 1911 and 1912 will furnish a
fair illustration, or demonstration Of
the fact that under our present sys-
tenn OF unregulated, uncontrolled pro-
d~uction, distribution and marketing a
large increase means a loss, rather
than a gain.
1t IL not the quantity the farmer pro-
duces. that builds up the farm, but the
net profit Of that production, and that
retained in the state builds up the
state. Better produce less at a profit,
than more at a loss. A few Of the
main crops will be sufficient for our
purpose. Wheat average YIELD in U.

WE GET OURS

New Mexiso has brought a suit
against Texas for two million dollars |
for land that the latter state Is alleged
to have absorbed along the boundary
line. The Texans must have taken a
big chunk, as We were under the i'm
preston that the whole state of New
Mexico wasn't worth much more than
that.-Brookings Is. d. Register.
II the esteemed editor of the Regis
ter made the above statement from a
sense Of humor, all we'll and good.
If he made it seriously, he is in dense
ignorance Of the wonderful natural
resources Of Now Mexico, which offer
today, in addition to q superb climate,
the greatest opportunities to the home
~seeher and investor. Government
land in millions of acres yet remain
for the homeless, while water to irri-
gate this land is here and waiting CAPT.
tai to properly utilize it upon the land.
Manufacturing, coal and metal mining,
livestock, fruit, timber and all the var
ious lines of activity that accompany
them, are here. New Mexico will yet
rank with the most wealthy states of
the Union.
Some people say that United States
census figures are dry. They oughtn't
to be dry to boosters of New Mexico.
They speak of work we'll done for the
figures are astonishing. Think of 1898
per cent increase in ten years in the
number Of farms. Think Of 1889 per
cent increase in the acreage OF i'm
proved lands. Think of the great ad-
vance in the value of land-470.4 per
cent. There isn't another state in the
union that q compete with this show.
ing.
There are other facts which stand
out. Only IA per cent Of the land
area Of New Mexico L. now in farms.
There are q number OF counties where
less than i've per cent of the land ia
in farms. Less than n per cent OF
the total land area is under irrigation.
The good news Of New Mexico's
. need for energetic citizens. and the re.
wards certain here tor intelligent
efforts. are not known by the vast
populace Of the United States. or they
would come to the Land Of Sunshine,
where health. wealth and happiness
may be had for all.-San Juan County

The cotton planters Of the south are
pretty we'll organized.
AS q result they had worked the
price OF cotton up from a losing to a
paying price, around IA cents per
pound. The 1911 crop was a bumper
one, and the price fell to 8.4 cents. The
farmers resolved to cut down the
acreage, and the yield also fell off Ia
and a half pounds per acre, and by
January 1st, 1913, the price had ad
vanced to 1872 cents per pound, an in
crease of 3.S cents per pound. The
gross receipts per acre for 1911
bumper CROP was $17.45 and for 191:
(smaller crop $23.57, an increase O
$6.12 per acre. The same will prov,
true Of every important change o
yield. In farm values quoted it will b,
noted that the price Is much highe
than that received by the farmers o
South Dakota. For instance the pric,
OF corn Is quoted December LIST, last a
48.7. The. average price of corn her,
at that date would have been under 2E
Barley Is quoted at so cents, the pric
was around 30 cents. Oats was quote,
at 31.9 cents, the price here beini
under rs. Potatoes quoted at so.
cents sold sold here as low as 20 cent
and thousands of bushels were no
picked UP. Increased cost of trans
portation and marketing made the di
ference. From the reports Of the Dt
partment of Agriculture we find tina
there has been still greater decline i
prices than those quoted. Crop RI
porter for December says, "The ayel
age price paid to Farmers for nine i'm
portant crops, corn, wheat, oats, bal
ley, rye, flaxseed, potatoes, buckwheat
cotton and hay which represent abou
t~hree-fourths Of the value Of all crop

the average Of prices was about /

1911" April LIST the decline had reacl
ed 25.9 per cent. and May LIST, 80 pc

II the farmers accepted the advic,
and could double the yield, wher
would the prices go?

opportunity to make a picture 50 full
Of thrilling excitement and realism as
the n herewith presented. Taken in
the Wilds of Colorado, this picture
shows the chase and capture alive, of
a very vicious and full grown wildcat,
Ihe picture opens with the discovery
oil an old settler that his chicken COOP
has again been the prey, during the
night, of a wildcat. To prevent fur
Their d~epredatiOns md as a lesson to
orler wildcats, he decides to capture
the cat alive. Enchanting his hound,
he old man and his son put the dog
on the trail and the chase begins.
After a thrilling chase over the hills
the hound corners the cat and a run
ming fight enSues. FINALLY, however,
it is caught again, roped securely and
placed in a horse blanket. 1t is then
carried back to camp where now from
its caGe it sends nightly warnings to
its brothers ana SISTERS.
Mystery of the Stolen Child Mr..
