TO BAR IMPORTED FLOWERS.
German Flower Growers Make Appeal
to Government.

Berlin, Sept. 25.--The war has brought
great difficulties to the flower growers
of Germany-but also great opportuni-
ties. For years France and italy have
been the chief markets for cut flowers,
and even the duties imposed by Germany
have not protected the native merchants.
At the recent annual meeting of the
various gardening associations through
out the empire, il was resolved to ask
the government to make special efforts
to keep out of Germany during the com
ing winter any cut flowers that might
otherwise find their way in, via Swtzer-
land, from either France or Italy.
Belgium, however, also grows flowers
in great quantities. The flower growers
therefore, decided TO urge on the gov
eminent a duty to protect them against
competition from this quarter, after
agreeing that it was urgently neces-
sary.
The members of the association rep.
resented agreed to undertake to deco
rate the graves of fallen soldiers through
volunteer donations of flowers.

Old Fashioned Weather Signs.

Tn the current issue, Farm and Fire

LESS STONE EXPORTED.
And Imports Were Slightly Increased in
1914.

The exports of stone have fuctuated
| from year to year, but on the whole
have risen in value, as is shown by com
parison of the value for 1900, which
was S200,5s7, with that of 1913, which
was 81 ,S56,s92. The rise in value has
been continuous since 1908, and since
1911 the value of exports has exceeded
that of imports.
The exports were valued at ST 1863, 242
in 1914, a decrease of S493,650 as COM
pared with 1913. The decrease was
chiefly in the value of manufactured or
dressed stone. The total value Of both
exports and imports is, however, insig-
nificant as compared with the value of
the domestic production, which amounts
to nearly ss0,000,000.
Canada provided by far the largest ex
port market, receiving from the United
States stone valued at S9s2,l02. The
next largest customers were, in order OF
rank, Cuba, Russia, Australia, and Tas-
mania, Great Britain, Panama. Ger
many, and New Zealand, and Mexico,
with purchases valued at more than Sl0,-
600 each. OF the different continents,
North America was of course the largest
customer, with purchases valued at ST.
125, 1883, and Europe second, with pur-
chases valued at sl34,725. The above
partial list of countries shows that the
American stone is finding its way to all
parts of the world.
Imports About sI,5ooooo.

DUMBA CHANGES
PLAN FOR SAILING
Failure of State Department to Provide
Safe Conduct Believed to be
the Reason.

Lenox, Mass, Sept. 25.-It was learned
yesterday that the Austro-Hungarian
ambassador, DIR. Constantin Theodor
Dumba, would not leave Lenox as soon
as he had planned with the expectation
of sailing on the steamer Rotterdam
next Tuesday. While no official explain
alton was given, it was assumed that
the delay was due to the failure of the
state department to arrange his safe
conduct pending reply from Vienna
to the request Of the United States gov
eminent for the ambassadors recall.

WOE TO A SINGLE MAN

. What man will do wnen he Is left
alone was pretty well demonstrated
the other day.
Mrs. j. ID. Cutlip left last week in
company with her sister, Mrs. Ada
Campbell, of Chicago, for a trip to
the coast where they will spend sew
eral months taking in the fairs. 1t
seems that the JudP" wanted TO be
real careful about keeping the house
locked and safe. He locked the front
door and all the other outside doors
and went out through the kitchen door
which has night lock and automat-
ically locks itself. He failed TO carry
a key so he was locked out. II was
hard problem TO solve but he finally
worked 1t by pricing up the bathroom
window and entering by that route.
He says he intends TO leave key
ut his Office so that he will have no
trouble getting in hereafter.

CAN'T UNDERSTAND

For week past the Office Of the
Tax Assessor has been flooded with
questions and complaints from the
taxpayers.
The new tax law seems to be gen.
orally misunderstood. II is probable
that taxes will be higher this year
than ever before, but any person ac-
quainted with our taxation system
knows that the local officials are help
less, These officials face unusual diff
ficulties in attempting to raise the i'm.
mense amounts of money appropriated
by the last Legislature, at q time
when property values, especially in
the towns, are very low.
II not satisfied with the assessment
of your property, read the statement
by James Briscoe, county assessor,
on another page, before you attempt
to whip any of the local officials.

FOUND DIAMONDS IN WELL

Is Eastern New Mexico underlaid
with diamonds? You may not have
heard about it, as il has been kept
quiet, but diamonds have actually been
taken out OF the ground at a 200-foot
depth, which for hardness and uncut
brilliancy are not excelled.
Lee Harrington, of McAlister. has
fine specimen which he took from a
well which he was drilling some time
ago. In fact he got two of them from
the well but misplaced one of them.
The one he still has, while not as large
as the other, is of large size and even
in it's uncut state shows the fire and
brilliancy of the finest diamonds. And
1t is so hard that it cuts glass per-
fectly without leaving a scar on the
diamond.
Mr.. Harrington who is q substantial
farmer and thresherman of the Nc
Alister district, expects to have the
gem cut and mounted and its worth
estimated.--Melrose Dairyman Farm

TO TAXPAYERS

On account of the great number of
inquiries which have come TO my Of
flee since we began the mailing Of
notices of valuation OF property. the
following statement Is made to these
who may be interested, concerning the
new tax law and the assessment Of
Quay County.
Under the recent act of the Legis-
lature, House Bill No. 327, all prop
erty is required TO be assessed at its
full actual value, instead of at one
third value, as in former years. This
Act provided for the limiting of tax
levies sufficiently to keep the actual
tax money collected about the same
as in former years. This change
would not have raised taxes. If the
same amount of money is collected,
il makes no material difference wheth-
er it is collected by the high rate on
u low valuation or by the low rate on
n high valuation. The latter seems
the better way.
On account of other circumstances
however. il is my opinion that taxes
will be higher this year than ever
before. In spite of the limiting Of
tax levies by law, the expenditures of
the State must be met. When the
Legislature appropriates money, il
will be extracted from the pockets Of
the taxpayers.
The recent session Of the Legisla-
ture did not neglect its duty Of money
spending. Much Of this money was
spent wisely. To ordinary humans
it seems that much of il was thrown
away. Whether il was spent wisely
or foolishly, this legislature. appro-
priated more money than any previ-
Gus legislature, and the taxpayers of
the State will have to pay the bill.
have been advised by the State
Tax Commission that a material in
crease in valuation would be neces-
sary. The best efforts Of the taxing
officials of this county have failed to
raise the valuation to anything near
the point which the Commission thinks
will be necessary. Many raises have
been made but the shrinkage in the
value Of city property has made many
reductions unavoidable.
The mailing of notices does not
mean that your valuation was raised.
Whether or not any change was made
in the valuation. this notice was mail
ed to every taxpayer. The object of
this is TO inform the taxpayer just
how he Is assessed, so that If mistake
or excessive assessment has been made
he may call the error to the attention
of the taxing officials within the time
allowed by law.
Very respectfully,
JAMES BRISCOE
Assessor Quay County, N. Mex,

SUPT. HOFER IS
AGAIN ELECTED

The board met this afternoon and
elected seventeen teachers, the rest
of the places to be filed at the next
meeting.
Supt. Hofer was reelected.
w. ID. Shadwick, Elizabeth Steph-
enson, Hazel Myers, Florence Seder,
and Georgia Gardner were also re.
elected to hold the same places they
had last year.
The following grade teachers were
chosen:
Eugenia Roy, Myrtice Nelms, Lii
lian Bess, Eula Street, Grace l.. JEFF
freys, Louise Murphy, Cornelius
Burke. Mary Fitzgerald, Mary j.
White, Miss Cavanaugh, Miss Mae
Syler.
From reports we learn that the
board had good meeting and every
thing went along as well as any meet
ing ever before held with new men,
5'ers on the board. No wrangling Of
any kind was indulged in.
Monday forenoon the old school
board met and finished such business
as would properly come before that
body and arranged for the swearing
in of the new members.
Bills were allowed and the clerk or
dered to draw warrants for same.
At four o'clock the board again met
and after swearing in the new mem
bers. Messrs. Stark and Putnam, the
president, Mr.. Goldenberg, asked for
nominations for president to fiji the
vacancy made by the retirement Of
himself from the board.
Mr.. Stark nominated VIM. Troup,
who has been member of the board
and an untiring worker for the inter
ests of the school, and he was unani-
mously chosen to fill that place. Mrs.
Donohoo was chosen again to act as
clerk because her work was beyond
criticism.
After some discussion in regard to
the choosing Of teachers a committee
consisting of three members, Stark,
Putnam and Meeker, was chosen to
take up the matter and report same
to the board to pass upon Thursday.
