creased benefits from the parcel
post, as the the Interstate Com
mission has authorized the post
master general to reduce the rates
and increase the weight limit of
packages. The new plan will 60
into effect on January l, when it
will be possible to send packages
weighing up fifty pounds in the
first two zones, while the weight
limit for the remaining zones is
increased from eleven pounds to
twenty pounds. Books of q
weight exceeding eight ounces
are also to be subject to regular
zone rates. Further restrictions
in the rates of large packages are
confidently predicted at the post

Timber Cutting on ~
National Forests

A comparison of the quantity
of timber cut on the National
Forests of Arizona and New Mex
leo during the month of Novem-
Der with the quantities cut dur
ing the corresponding month in
past years brings out the fact
that, in spite of the depression in
the lumber market, the cut in
November of this year was great
er than that in any other Novem-
Der since the Forests were put
under administration. Someidea
of the steadily incredibly increas-
ing demand for government timber
may be obtained when it is noted
that the quantity cut in Novem-
Der, 1910, 3,408, 900 feet, B. M,
valued at SO, 102. SO; in November,
1911. the cut was A, 491, 900 feet.
with a value of $12, 522. .72; in
November, 1912, it was 6, 046, 900
feet, valued at $17, ,282. 22; while
during the month just past there
were cut 7,646.29. The quantity
cut this year would have been
even greater had it not been for
the fact that one heavy purchaser
was engaged in cutting timber
from private lands adjacent to his
sale area, SO that no National For
est timber was cut, and because
the weather conditions in north
ern New Mexico were unfavor-

HOnOrS Even Between
Militia Boys and Town

On Saturday last some OF the
gun men of the town made 1t
known that they could shoot as
well as they used to. The militia
bows rather doubted it, but they
don't now.
The match was made to be
held on IF" Company's target
grounds for 2 o'clock. At the
appointed time a goodly crowd
besides the teams assembled at
the grounds. Owing to the short
ness of the time, all the shooting
was done prone at five hundred
wards. The match was close all
the way through. First one was
ahead, then the other, but never
more than a few points either
way. But it finally wound up, to
all appearances, four points IN
favor of the town.
A surprise was in store for
everyone, however. When the
ground dogs" (pit mem came
UP, they said that the only miss
signaled was a -four. . This
shot was easily traced to Edd, a
member of the militia team. This
made a tie, and the teams having
already left, there was no chance
to shoot it off.
A dog. which was half way
between the pit and the target
when the first shot was fired,
made an excellent run to the
parapet next to the target and
there he took a good position in
plain sight from the rifle pit,
stayed there during the whole
shoot, and seemed to enjoy the
affair immensely. After the shoot
he came up with the other dogs
uninjured. There are few shoots
where such a stunt could be per-
formed so successfully.
Frank McLaws was high man,
making 22 out of a possible Is.
There were a number of twenty
ones made. The final score was
88 out of a possible 125, and re-
member this was one of the first
shoots, and on cloudy, cold,
disagreeable day.

An eminent scientist declares
that impaired hearing due to ad-
vancing age can be prevented by
facial exercise in which the ears
are made to wiggle. Such being
the case it will be common in the
future to see elderly men and
women playing wiggle while the
children drop the handkerchief.

NEW CURRENCY SYSTEM

Farmers and stockmen should
profit almost to the same degree
as persons engaged in other than
agricultural industries from the
new currency system which is
about to be established in this
country. The benefits to agri-
culture, as we'll as to other in
terests, will be conferred, in the
first place, by the provisions of
the new measure which reduce
the present reserve requirements
of national banks from Is and Is
per cent to as low as Is and 5
per cent, and the commercial pa
per re-discount features all of
which will expand the supply of
credit. From this a slight shad-
ing of loan rates is possible.
The amendments in the new
bill which were added with the
idea of increasing the borrowing
ability of agriculturists provide
that six-months' commercial pa
per may be discounted at the
federal reserve banks and the
banks may make loans on five
year farm mortgages up to one
third of their time deposits. By
giving six-month's time on COM
mercial paper at the federal re-
serve banks, it is obvious that
farmers will be helped-to what
extent remains to be seen-be-
cause their business is often af-
fected adversely by the prevail
ing preference for short time
loans among all bankers. The
farm mortgage clause is a step
forward rather in the nature of
a slight concession to advocates
of national bank loans on real
estate. The time deposits of
most national banks are not
large. And loans up to one
third of these deposits, the limit,
will hardly add a very impor-
tant sum to the supply of capi-
tai obtainable with farm mort
cages as a security. These two
amendments to the currency
measure, however, are far more
than farming interests hoped to
obtain short while ago, and
they may be followed by the
adoption of some practical agri-
cultural credit scheme, which
President Wilson has already
promised farmers.
If the new currency system is
as fruitful of benefits to business
as it's trainers anticipate, both
commercial interests and farm
ers will have reason to rejoice.
If it stimulates commercial en-
terprise alone farmers will profit,
for their interests are mutual.
And if the measure contains
some faults, as averred by its
opponents, everybody should take
hope from the fact that neither
President Wilson nor the other
authors of the complicated meas
ure are satisfied with it in all re-
spects. They stand ready tc
amend it as occasion may de-
mand.
