THE TRANS SIBERIAN
RAILROAD IN THE WAR

When the history of the war comes
to be written, one of it's most in
teresting sections will be that dealing
with the effective work done by rail-
roads hastily constructed back of the
armies engaged. One Of the most i'm
portant works now being undertaken,
1t is stated, is the double tracking
of the great Siberian railroad, work
which will add enormously to the eff
fectiveness Of the Russian army, es-
pecially during the winter months.

Says San Jnan County
Made Splendid Showing

While our neighbors in San Juan
county did not capture the $1,000
premium for the best agricultural
and horticultural display at the
Albuquerque state fair. they did make
some remarkable winnings, according
to Prof. w. IL. Olin, commissioner of
agriculture of the d. & r. G.. who is
transacting business in Durango.
Over the whole state of New Mexico
they were awarded sweepstakes for
the best fruit display and the same
honors for apples. In each instance
the competition was sti ong. Prof.
Olin who was one of the judges pre-
diets next year San Juan county will
win the big prize. This years dis
play attracted much attention and no
end Of favorable comment. Doubt
less number of substantial home
seekers will be attracted to the coun-
ty as result. Last Friday train
load of people seeking land, residents
of all parts of the east, who were on
their way to California to look over
farm properties, stopped one day at
the fair to learn New Mexico's de-
velopment and possibilities through
the exhibits. The train had been ar
ranged by the colonization agent OF
the Santa Fe. Although many miles
distant from the country tributary

its representative display. came in fol

what is the DOPE" Well, neighbors,
it is simply this, railroads" This
whole northwest is ironed out sys-
tematically by several of the best con-
structed and best equipped railroads
IN the United States, and they do the
business. Everybody believes in them.
Old Jim Hill, as he is known here,
is the wizard and all around wonder
worker of the Great Northern sys-
tenn. 1t is truly said he has made the
northwest what it is today. With his
main lines running from st. Paul to
the Pacific coast, and the two score
branches running north and south,
where everybody is safely and COM
fortably transported over rock ballast
ed road beds, in elegantly equipped
cars, will the northwest prosper? 1t
certainly will Notwithstanding the

purpose most to speak of the San
Juan basin in particular, for it seems
about the most neglected spot for
hundreds of miles around, with all its
great and undisputable resources that
nature has lavished upon us. With
nothing undesirable and with every
thing favorable to health, wealth and
happiness of a community, we are
still getting far behind most of our
neighbors who have nothing like our
resources. Never is this so apparent

what others are doing, and see
where the fault lies.

emphatically on the railroads. Our
present system of the Fourth division

the times. Its management does not
seem to care to do anything for the

department needs a man like Mr.. Hill

do likewise.

THE NUMBER OF
GERMAN SUBMARINES

A German naval officer is author
ity for the statement that sixty sub
marines have been put in hand in Ger
man and Belgian yards since the out
break of the war. Of these "a are
of about $50 tons displacement; IL
of about 500 tons and "a of about L.
200 tons. According to this author
ity over one-half have been passed
into service, and this, at the time the
statement was made gives an average
rate of completion Of about two boats
every three weeks. At the present
rate of construction it would seem
from these figures that the German
statement of their putting out one
boat week may be correct.
