TURKEY SHOOTS BRUTAL.

Editor Ell Paso Herald;
As a class, men who engage in hunt
ing and field sports with the Dog ana
gun attribute to themselves the quahty
of good craftsmanship An general
their pride is well founded, any deFla-
ton from the rules of talr play IN
regard to hunting is froWned upon Dy
the true sportsman.
Yet there exists one phase of So
called sport that is so revolving as to
| absolutely fall outside of the confines
OF good craftsmanship. l AVE IN mlnd
tho turkey shoots which are being
held nearly any day and more gener-
ally on Sundays. While 1 nave never
witnessed one of these matches, where
the much praised American bird is put
on the block at a distance great enough
from the CONTESTANTS to make a good
shot necessary to hit the bird, L have
seen evidences of the sport, when
have taken away n desire 1 may have
entertained to see the actual killing.
Only last Sunday I saw three slaugh-
tered turkeys. One had been shot
through the bowels, another through
the left wing and breast and the third
was minus a leg.
I have been told that just as soon
as a bird is hit to the extent of draw
ing blood it is Immediately despatched
by a man with a sharp ak. This very
fact has been cited as entirely rob-
bling the sport of its too evident bru-
tality. Anothe argument advanced in
eXtenuation of the practice Of Shoot
ing tame turkeys is that the bird is
placed at a fair distance from the
contestant. The fallacy of this argu-
ment is at once apparent, when one
1 remembers that the average turkey
shoot is not at an end unt1 all the
birds have been disposed Of. Pro-
longing the match does result in
greater profits to the man who con-
ducts it, but in the end the turkey is
sure to be killed.
I have been told by One man, who
really felt some shame at having taken
part in a turkey shoot, that the prac-
tice is no worse than hunting n kill
ing wild game. 1t will hardly neees-
sary to point out a few of the many
ways in which this is not true, to
convince him of the weakness of his
argument
Why can not some substitute be
found for this "sUOrt'2 1 believe the
men who axe pleasure in contests of
skill and Workmanship SHOULD substi-
tute shooting at a target with live
birds for prizes. they would derive
greater satisfaction. and the contests
might then belong in the realm Of true
sport
I do not know if Texas or any other
state has laws p~rOhibitory to shoot
ing tame birds for sport or not If
such laws exist in Texas, they are
not enforced; and if they do not exist,
they should be made and put in opera
ton.
The much Wanted 20tL century civil
ization has not arrived at the point
where state laws may be displaced by
the dictates of a mans conception of
what is right and what is wrong. If
every true sportsman stops for a mo-
ment to think for himself, these tur-
key boots Will be attended in the
future only by men who are not true
spOrtsmen.

Dorothy Dix Writes on
Why My Husband Left Me
An Extravagant Wife Tells How She Wrecked Her
Happiness.
BY DOROTHY DIX.

ct LOST my husband" said a peni-
tent woman, through my ex-
t~ravagance.
CAS- there are men who are cursed
with the mania for drink, so there are
women who are cursed by a mania for
spending, ~ the one breaks I'D Just
as many homes as the other. and causes
as much misery. I am one of the wom-
en- to whom the allurement of shopping
is as irresistible a temptation as the
glitter and doors of the saloon are to
any drunkard, and indulgence in my
weakness brought me to ruin just as
surely as Indulgence in his weakness
ever brought a man to the gutter.
There never was a finer man than
the one I married. He was sober NOR
al, upright. a man with a big heart and
a wide, wise vision of life. He was a
self-made man in the very best sense
of the word for he had been a poor
boy, and at the time of our marriage
had, by sheer pluck and ability. raised
himself to a responsible position in the
firm in whose service he hat begun as
an office boy, and the future Law bright
and promising before him, with every
prospect of success.
1--WE began our married life in the
traditional rose-wreathed cottage in a
pretty suburb. Before we were mar
ried Jack had explained his circum-
stances fully to me- and had told me
that while we could have all the COM
forts of life and some of the Injuries,
for a few years we would have to be
economical, and count our pennies. He
also told me just how much he could
give me as an allowance to run the
house on and for my own expendi-
lures. so that I have not even the poor
excuse that many women make for
/ their wasting, that my husband kept
me in the dark, and I did not know
what I could afford to spend.
fI began our married life with a
crime. Jack had given me a generous
check with which to buy the furniture
for our new home. Spend it as you
please, of course, darling he said to
me, for I want you to have everything
as nearly to your taste as possible, but
remember that this is every cent that
1 can give you now. so get the things
that we are absolutely bound to have
first, and then add the frillikins as you

Her First Mistake.
""Well, I went down TO a big furni-
ture store to buy our furniture, and
the first thing 1 did I stumbled into q
sale of ornate and gilded trumpery fur
, niture with spindling gilt legs and pale
; satin brOcades, suitable only for the
boudoir of a mi~lliOnairess, and before I
realized what I had done 1 had spent
; the most of my money on this foolish
junk. The few dollars that were left

our MEXICO POLICY.

From Albany On. " Press.
The Wilson policy of w%atchful waiting
in Mexico has been a complete failure.
There is even less promise of the estab-
Iishment of a stable government in
Mexico now than there was when our
marines were landed at Neracruz.
Were it not for the European war,
which is engaging exclusively the at
tention of the big powers Of Europe,
the United States would not be per-
mitted to adopt its present course. If
it were not for the war in Europe,
European powers would be demand
ing that the United States either re-
store order in Mexico or permit some
other responsible power or powers TO
do so. The proof is growing stronger
every day that the president is only
postponing the evil day when the
United States must go into Mexico and
do for the Mexican people what they
have proved they are unable to do for
themselves.

beds and chairs and a rickety dining
table. and as this was not enough for
ever the essentials of housekeeping, L
had to go a couple of undred dollars
in debt.
IT shall never forget the expression
of disappointment and hopeless bewil-
derment that came over Jacks face
whe he saw my purchases, and real
lied that 1 had thrown away his good
money on stuff that was worse than
useless. But L was tearfully repent
ant, and he was idiOtically in love with
me. and so he attributed my folly to my
lack of experience and blamed himself
for not having realized that a young
girl not used to handling money would
not know how to spend 1t wisely.
But that was only the beginning
of nv career of extravaganza. I fairly
lived in the shops, and 1 could never
see a thing without wanting 1t n
buying it. no matter how well 1 knew
that I could not AFFORD II My nus
band was a man on a moderate salary,
yet I INDUCED myself in $50 hats, and
Paris gowns, and handmade lingerie.
Worse, the very sight of a bargain
seemed to stir me into a sort OF frenzy,
and when the madness was on me 1
bought recklessly whatever was being
sold without regard to need.
He ExpOstuIates.
"Of course. the result was that I
ran my husband into debt I owed ev-
erywhere that I could get a dollars
worth of credit. There was not a day
that the bill collectors were not at our
door. I took the rent money n paid
a little here and a little there to keep
the creditors quiet, until we we're
served with a dispOssess notice for rent
that Jack thought was already paid.
AT first Jack reasoned with me low
ingly and tenderIy about my extrava-
gance. He told me of his ambition to
get an interest in the firm in which he
worked, and how he had saved and sac
rificed for that, and that there would
be an opportunity soon to buy a little
block of stosk in it If he had the
money. but that this opportunity would
be lost to him if ne had to spend every
cen On my bills
Il loved him. I wanted to help him,
but I could not control my mania for
spending, and so his cherished savings
went to pay for my debaucheries Of
shopping. Then Jack scOlded me for
my extravaganza, and I grew afraid Of
him and hid them, and lied about them
as long as I could, and our life was one
succession of scenes.
Finally the bill collectors began
bounding Jack in his office, and then
he came to me, his face stern and
white, and told me that he was going
to leave me. You have uined my life

HOOS IN EECOS NALAfEAs
Artesia, n. NJ, Dec. Is.
Editor Ell Paso Herald:
I note in your valuable paper Of Dec.
u. where Prof. R. S. Trumbull says
Roy, N. N, shipped a carload of hogs
last spring. which, he thinks, the first
carload of hogs ever shipped from New
Mexico. 1t is no secret that the Pecos
valley has been shipping hogs for 10
years or more.
Artesia shipped out over 1000 head
in September and October of 1912, and
has been shipping regularly every few
months since the above dates.
The PecOs valley is one of the best
hog raising sections in the southwest,
and breeders of the valley are now well
stocked with registered hogs Of most
every breed from the Mulefoot to the
DurOck Jersey.
The hog show at the state livestock
and products exhibition last October
was valued at several thousand dollars.
Some of our breeders are now getting
their registered herds ready to show
next season, and will show at home and
then take in the big Dallas, Tex, fair

home, but I am not going to let you
make a slave Of me any longer. 1 am
not going to spend my life toiling for
miIiners and dressmakers. I am going
to make you an allowance that will be
paid to you through a lawyer, and 1 am
going to take steps to stop yOur credit
and prevent you from running me into
debt any farther
And that was the end. I have re-
pented In sackcloth and ashes. but you
cannot call the dead to life again, and
of all dead things nothing is so dead as
dead love. I have slain my husbands
love, and there is no resurrection day
for dead love"

so will you tell our Roy, n. NJ, friend
that the PecOs valley is the nome OF
New MeXico's finest hogs, in most any
breed to be had?
Our farmers have had some d1scour-
agements in the hog business this year
owing to the cholera, but the valley IS
now well organized and a government
man is located at Roswell to help US
clean up any outbreak Of the disease IN
the future.
The southwest can keep its eye on
the PecOs valley hog; It has become
known as the mortgage litter.
