There is in the Liberal office a
chunk of vegetable matter that Ed
mund Wright says is a sweet potato.
He acknowledges that his only reason
for calling it a sweet potato Is be-
cause he dug it up out of his sweet
potato patch. 1t is % inches in cir
conference and eight inches long,
Weighing eight pounds. 1t is not
shaped like a sweet potato, but has
the proper color. An experienced
house wife says it would take half a
day to bake it through, IL was raised

but no one was ever able to find the
ledge from which it came. There
have been some heavy rains this sum-

the placer gold, which the rains UNI
covers, and p. Burns discovered what
is thought to be the mother ledge
from which the placer gold comes. 1t
is about three feet wide, and is rich

Miss Isabel Lancaster Eckles, u
superintendent Of schools, who is re-
quired by law to visit every school In
the county, has written to Superin-
tendent White, asking to be relieved
of that duty as regards visiting the
schools in Animas, Rodeo, Hachita,
Playas, Lone Walnut and Walnut
Wells, giving IS her reason the Ell
Paso & Southwestern has taken of
its daylight trains, and in order to
visit these schools she will have to
hire an automobile for four days, at
an expense of a months salary, and
then could visit each school but half
an hour. She says that when the
European war is over she can have
the less expensive train service be-
tween Lordsburg and Hachita. The
trains are running between Lords
burg and Hachita six days a week,
and she will have no trouble in visit
ing Hachita. A prominent Lords
burg democrat, to which party Miss
Eckles belongs, informs the LIBERAL
that he will supply her with a fine
riding horse for as long a time as she
needs it, that 1t will cost her nothing
&c feed the horse, as the people in the
! various districts will care for him,
and she can take her time and visit
the various schools. The people in
this part of the county are used to
being sighted by the county officers,
who are always looking for an excuse
to keep them from doing their duty
In this section, and then using their
utmost endeavor to keep the county
from being divided, and making two
moderate sized and prosperous coun-
ties. 1t is to see that one county Of
ticer does her duty by southern Grant
county is what the aforesaid promin-
ent democrat had in view when he Of
fered his horse for Miss Eckles, who
is said to be an expert horsewoman.
