The match IS losing ground. A few
years ago the German factories were
supplying an average of 2.200 matches
for each person each day. The use
OF electricity and the invention OF
automatic igniting devices have SO re.
duced the consumption Of matches,
the manufacturers say, that the rate
Of use Is now only 1880 matches per
person each day. The manufacturers,
also depressed by the heavy taxes
which have been levied upon their
industry, are urging the government
to take over their factories and es-
tablish a state monopoly In matches.
The purchase would require some
$10,000,00O.

CONGRESS ADDS TO NATIONAL
FOREST.

Nearly 1900 acres have Just been
added by act of congress to the Carl
bou national forest, Idaho. This is
one OF the first OF such additions
through congressional action, and is
the largest SO far made by direct leg
islation.
Those who have followed the ma
tional forest movement in this coun-
try will recall that most of the for
ests have been Grated through presi-
Dental proclamation, which set aside,
for timber growing or for water pro-
lection, certain areas Of the public
domain. In March, 1907. however,
congress passed law that no further
additions should be made to the ma
tional forest areas in the states Of
Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Oregon.
Washington and Wyoming, except
through congressional action.
Since July, 1909, residents OF the
city OF Montpelier, Idaho, have been
petitioning to have this 1900 acres
added to the Caribou national forest,
because the area includes the water
shed of the stream which furnishes
the city's water supply. Not being
within a national forest, the tract
was given over to unregulated graz
ing and other usages which resulted
in stream pollution and became a
serious menace to health. The citi-
zens of Montpelier, at several times
subsequent to their first efforts in
1909, renewed their petition; and the
act just passed represents the sue
cessful outcome of their efforts.

and the business part of the
programme was under consider

Some one had proposed that
the regular time of meeting be

Finally the president Of The

opinion, and he said, with much

Jerry was the new night operator at

the early days of the Cincinnati South
ern. Jerry was unmistakably new. The
manner in which he counted over the
carbon sheets in his tTain-order pads,

supply of three, five and seven copy
pads on hand to meet the demands of
a sudden call from the dispatcher, to
whom the word "fx" was an abomina-
ton, and the nicely with which he adj
justed his relays from time to time,
indicated his newness plainly. If there
had been any doubt about 1t, his puz-
zled expression as he scanned the
switchboard, his surreptitious trials of
the ground-plug in each strip to ascer-
tain which side was north and which
south, and his frequent trips to the
station platform to inspect his train
order signal, would have proclaimed it.

more ways than one during the
last two years. One of the most
progressive acts was the election
of H. B. Ferguson to congress
at the last election. This is not
his first time to serve New Mex
ico i'll tie national congress.
When he was a delegate to con.
sress, he did many things for
New Mexico which will always
be a monument to his memory
in this state One of these was
the causing of congress to ap
prOpriate a million acres of lond
sor the benefit of the public
schools.
Another time when New Mex
ico progressed was the appoint
ment by President Wilson of
Hon. A. A. Jones of Las Vegas
as first assistant secretary of the
interiOr-a man who knows the
needs of New MeXico-which is
evidenced by the bill witch will
soon become law, permitting
homesteader to have $40 acres
of land,
Ferguson and Jones have
both had part in efforts to get
their enlarged homestead meas
ure enacted into law. And now
the bill as introduced by Mr..
Fergus son promises to become u
law in a short time.
At another place where Mr.
Jones shows his instincts for
business is that heretofore
man and woman WhJ had
homesteads were sentenced to
celibacy if both Held TIN e n
claims. Now, Mr.. Jones will
permit both to marry without
either losing his or her land.
When you state right and do
the best your can other things
will come right. New Mexico
started right by eleciing H. B
FERGUSON to cCngres; til en-
President Wilson appointed A.
A. Jones to the interior depal t.
ment, and now the rains have
come to make the grass grow
