"One million dollars has been saved the

opened for $500 14-inch armor piercing
shells, LOO 12-inch shells and $4,000

Nine Firms in Competition.

greatest cut in price on any one item
was made by the Bethlehem Steel COM
pany, which secured contracts for four
inch common shells last year at 800.
and this year offered to take the entire
lot of the same shells at w. - apiece OF
only little more than half the price
fixed last year.
In general the Bethlehem, Crucibie
and Midvale steel companies heavily
undercut all other competitors. inciud.

The department is. of course. greatly

STORES Of MATERIAL
Of VALUE TO TEACHERS
Federal Bureau of Education Calls
Attention to the Government
Publications.

Vast stores of educational material. of
special value to teachers, lie hidden in
government publications, says the fed
eral bureau of education in a statement
today. Attention is called to the fact
that tons and tons of reports, bulletins
and miscellaneous documents are daily
turned out by the government printing
office containing valuable educational ma
terial, although not generally known by
the public.
Delving into these publications experts
of the bureau of education have discov-
cred wealth of teaching material hid
den away. because the titles of many OF
these documents give no indication OF
their value for educational purposes. n
bulletin has been prepared by the bu-
reau as guide to small portion of this
material which has special signifcahce
for teachers or others interested in edu-
cation.

Big Demand For
High Grade Cattle
Colorado Parties Buy ESQ Head OF
Graded Stock To Improve Their
Herds; Reasonable Price.

The Porter Ranch last week sold
$50 head Of graded yearling heifers
and bulls to the Middle Park Land
and Live Stock company Of Parsh-
all, Colorado, to which place they
we're shipped on Friday. The
purchasers will stock their ranch
with high grade cattle Of the Here
ford type, realizing that this type
Of cattle produces more beef than
any other known breed and returns
greater revenues.
This section of Colfax county is
vastly noted for its high grade cat
tie as is evidenced by the fact that
the U. S. government has made
large purchases Of bulls for dis,ri-
button among. the Indian tribes of
the West, and the company that
made the Porter purchase.
This stock shipment to the Coll
orado parties is valued at about
SI8, 900, and is considered a very
reasonable price for its high grade.
Stock conditions cannot be ameI-
iorated at any given place owe
those existing in this section, and
the recognizance of the government
and othess who desire to improve
beef herds is fact that speaks for
the success Of the cattle growers in
the future in this section. The
cattle in this section is practically
immune from the ravishes OF di-
sease and other plaques that infest
the herds Of the West.
A recent report from Kansas
City, the unloading market for the
state, shows that more cattle was
shipped from Cimarron during the
past year, than any other town in
the northern part of New Mexico.
which speaks for the largeness of
the industry and the vital factor it
is in contributing to the prosperi-
ty OF the richest county in the
United States.
Another important feature OF the
industry is that the cattle at all
times command the highest market
price when shipped to market.
