We have been asked why it is
that the country press of New
Mexico attach so much import
ance to the Office Of Register of
the U. S. Land Office, and in re-
ply would say,
The Register of the u. s.
land Office is the one and only
man in his respective district
who can make or break his
party in his district. TO his good
will depends the life or
death Of the party press-and
when a Register discriminates
with the federal patronage
of his Office as against one loyal
newspaper Of his party and gives
all the party pap to another he
can kill his party quicker than
any other man in public Office.

Sixty.two individuals or firms in the

Of Engineers backed & measure seek
ing to create state highway commits

two other bills that went before the

burden of maintaining highways, as
well rs their construction, on automo-
bile owners. They were successful.
The good roads advocates before the
Legislature managed to strike har.

LATE CULTIVATION SHOULD BE SHALLOW

As the crops increase in their growth, more water is needed and used by the plants. The water is taken up by the roots making it perfectly plain that water and roots are essential to the best crops.
 If deep cultivation cuts the roots off, then the plant will suf- fer for lack of moisture unless it is so abundant that the roots not cut can still supply the full needs of the plants. Deep cultivation, therefore, does more damage in dry weather and when the plants are large. It is right that we should object to late cultivation if it is done in the old way, which means destruction of the plant roots.
 But on the other hand, the roots are not sufficient, is the water supply is not in the soil. The way to keep sufficient water in the soil for the largest crops is to fill it With humus, which holds water; then blow deep so that the land will take in the moisture instead of it running off and carrying soil with it and then kee up shallow cultivation. Why shallow cultivation? Be- cause it does not injure the roots so much and leave the land in such condition that less water is evaporated and lost to the crops. Because deep. late cultivation in- jures the crops is no proof what ever that shallow, late cultiyat- ion is not of great value in in- creasing crop yeilds. The only reason any one knows why culti- vating corn or cotton until ma. turity injures it, is that h s cultivation:prunes the roots, If the roots are not injured there is ample proof that late cultivation increases the yield by saving the water supply for the maturing oxon -ProgressiYe Farmer.

WHAT THE SOUTH NEEDS IS THE SMALL
 WHITE FARMER

We are glad to find MT. Brad ford Knapp, in charge of the Farm Demonstration Work in the South, joining us in our warning against corporation in- stead of cooperation farming. We know he voiced the views of his lamented father w h n he said in a recent address:
 There is a tendency today throughout the South to think that we can do farming best on a bonanza scale, with large capital large tracts of land and fine equipment. Even if it can be done profitably, 1 tell you that it is not good thing for the coun. try. The strength, the civilizat- ion, the manhood and the woman hood of the South depend largely on the small farmer who is de- voting all his energies to the cultivation of one tract of land for the support of himself, his wife and his children. What this country needs is the small white farmer, living on his own farm and doing the greatest part of his work himself. If we men will only stick together we can do this and do it better t han they can on the big corporation plan. = Progressive Farmer
