Tuesday. The stock was brought to
Tlcumcari from south of Clovis and
did not look the best for their trip,
hut the ~auctioneers, Hunter and Roe-

pretty good prices considering every
thing. The bunch brought $1619 or
an average of about $3.50. This does
not sound big for jersey cows when
nearly any milk COW Of the jersey
brand in this vicinity brings from $50
TO $125. Some of the cows were Grip
pied from their long walk and Mr..
Adams said he could have sold them
for more money at home.

Where Trading Is Second Nature
q the Christian Herald

From the Christian Herald.
D. w. Cram, in charge of the school
at Barron, in arctic Alaska, the north
ernmost school in the world, says:
The Eskimo child differs from the av-
erage white child in that at an early
age he is thrown upon his own re-
sources as far as trading and bar
tering are concerned. Even at the time
he enters school, and in some cases be-
fore that. he Is allowed to do much as
he pleases with whatever comes into
his possession. For instance, there
came into the harbor last fall, just be-
fore the close of navigation, a whaling
schooner. One evening after school
about a dozen of the boys, between
the ages of nine and fourteen, got into
native canoe and went over to the
ship. The crew of the ship was COM
posed mostly of Eskimos from Siberia
These schoolboys in some cases traded
the very clothes they had on their
backs. custom made goods, shipped
from Seattle in the summertime-hats
caps, coats, suspenders, shirts, under
shirts: not to mention pocket-knives,
mouth organs and various other arti-
cles for things the Siberians had to
trade. After it was all over they came
back to the schoolhouse and during
the evening hour entertained US with a
recital of their experiences, laughing
and joking at the deals they had made,
and I could see that they had driven
some shrewd bargains with the ST.
berians."
