It is the same character of market, there is no volume On the rallies at the strongest point, when q spurt is expected. the buying absolutely stops and on the down tack it chokes same way. There is enough bull news being written nov to send the market through the roof
 We hear the same old tales which furnished material for the bulls IS months ago. Twenty five million dollar war orders are being slung around. At this time they fail to stimulate buying. The public has enough of fairy tales and they are looking now for facts. They do not forget statement that put Car Fdy above 90 and the realization where their annual report showed less than 2% per cent earned Money easy and gold imports continue. This will be the basis for 2 genuine movement later on when things straighten out 90 that the buyer feels the ground firm under his feet.

REPORT ON INDUSTRIAL EDUCATION
IN EDDY COUNTY FOR 1916

Most Of the manual training work
in this county has been done in Ar
tesla and Carlsbad. When State In
dustrial Supervisor u. q. Mersfelder
was here l believe he had occasion 70
investigate this in both places and
perhaps knows more OF the equipment
than I do. From what I am able TO
find out the work seems to be as good
as could be expected under the cir
cumstances. In fact, / think the
schools have gone as far as their
finances will justify. Each year some
equipment is added which viii mean
that in a few years the departments
will be adequately equipped. PTac-
tically all the work in the other towns
and in rural schools OF the county
consists Of Improvements on build
ings, seats and play ground apparatus.
The teachers are encouraged to have
the older boys in each school make
any repairs or building equipment
which they are able to make. Goods
boxes and scrap lumber are used
mainly for this kind of work.
In domestic science, Carlsbad and
Artesia are also doing most Of the
work. Some of the rural schools and
many Of the smaller towns have sew
ing Lakewood having a cooking de-
partment. All this work is practical
and therefore valuable. It may be
said that the reason why this work has
not progressed is lack of finances
rather thatn lack Of interest. Interest
generally is excellent but we have

The report Of Secretary Alvan N.
White of the state board of education
to the governor is as follows:
To His Excellency, William G. Nc
Donald,
Governor of New Mexico.
Dear Governor Mcdonald:
Complying with your recent re-
cent request for a report, in duplicate.
covering the affairs OF the state board
Of education, for the years 1915 and
1916, for use in the governors mes
sage to the legislature. / have the
honor to submit the following con-
oensed report, trusting, however, that
same is sufficiently complete for your
purposes.
Transactions Of the Board
For the year, 1915, five meetings
Of the board were held, totaling %
days. At these meetings. the usual
routine matters, such as applications
for the various grades Of certificates,
rules governing the issuance OF same,

great difficulty in finding sufficient
money to make the work what It
should be.
Agricultural Work
The agricultural work Of the coun-
~ Is chiefly kns the, hands Of cur
county agent, 1.W. Knorr. This year
we have done particularly well in this
line. Mr.. Kn0rr has encouraged seed
testing and poultry raising and the
raising Of many different farm prod
ucts. IIe has organized contests
among school children In the county
and has obtained valuable results. ]
think that the right kind of agricul-
ture should be had in all rural
schools. However, If this work is con-
fined to textbooks / think it is prac-
tically useless, for we usually have
different conditions from those dis
cussed by text books. The greatest
obstacle with agriculture in schools Is
lack Of trained teachers in this sub
ject and also training supervision.
But in this county the problem is
solved by the county agent.
Speaking generally we may say
that some industrial work is being
done in every school in this county.
In many one-room schools the work is
crude and fragmentary.' 1t is, how
ever, our purpose to develop as fast
our means viii allow.
Yours very truly,
w. A. POORE,
County Superintendent.

with the Observation-Disclosures

Deming. N. M, Dec. 2O.-The new

Telegraph company. This link ex-
tends a distance of 14b miles, and has

which has been working both ways

strip means a direct transcontinental
telephone line over this southern

alternate wire across the country, and

mental long distance line by way Of

A record has been established in its
construction, says the Headlight, re-
quiring only 60 days to set 145 miles
of poles, 40 to the mile, and upon
these poles there will be two No. 81
copper circuits. Upon this pole line
an iron circuit is constructed from
Deming to Lordsburg and from Dem

this community wilk soon be able to

nine CARS OF GRE
SHIPPED At SCHOLLE
WEEKS COPPER OUTPUT in A6o
CANYON SHOWS HOW IMPORT
ANT IS MINING ACTIVITY

Mountainair, N. M, Dec. 2O.-That
the mines at ScholIe are becoming
more and more profitable, as more
work Is being done. is proven by
the fact that during the past week
nine cars OF ore were shipped to the
smelter, and further that the ore now
being taken out is OF better grade than
heretofore, says the Independent.
DIR. w. B. Humphreys, manager OF
the Van Horn Consolidated Copper
Mining company, has just sunk two
more shafts on the property Of this
company, and has encountered ore Of
a good grade-better than that hereto
fore shipped from these holdings. He
loaded two cars OF forty-two tons each
during the past week. This company
will begin the erection Of cabins and
bunk houses for the miners at once, to
be prepared for the winter.
Prof. Kirk, of the State University,
has made an inspection trip to ScholIe
and is highly gratifed at what he saw
while there. He reports quite favor
ably on the workings and the gradetof
ore now being taken out.
Mr. Casin, who has holdings along
those of the Blue Star Mining
company, has just completed a shaft,
encountered splendid ore at a
depth Of 11S feet. In fact the ore en-
countered is reported as being quite
similar to that being taken from the
Of the Cavins company. 1t is
reported that Mr.. Casin has a very
tempting offer for his holdings.

STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION HAS
IMPORTANT WORK AND SHOULDBE
WELL PROVIDED WITH FUNDS

various successful publishers, under
their bids, were probably the most i'm
portant business transacted by the
the board, for the year 1915. Careful
attention was given to all routine
matters.
For the year, 1916, four meetings
nave been held, totaling 10 days. The
usual routine matters we're given at
tention at these meetings. Some adj
ditional textbooks were adopted for
supplementary s Perhaps the
most important action taken by the
board for this year was that Of gain
ing membership in the North Central
Association Of Secondary schools and
Colleges.
Appropriation Needed
Il am pleased to say tnat the 1915
legislature needed the recommended
tons, made in my report to You, Mo-
vember 80. 1914, by providing means
whereby the state now pays the mile
age and per diem expenses Of the
members Of the board, but this legis-
lature did not act favorably upon my
recommendation for an annual appro-
priation for the payment Of the prep
aration and publication Of the neces-
sary bulletins, courses Of study, in
stitute manuals, and other necessary
publications Of the board. Therefore,
! wish again to urge the imperative
necessity OF an appropriation suffi-
Gent for the needs of the board, over
and above the mileage and per- diem
expenses, so that the board viii not
be longer forced to burden the teach
ers OF the state with a certificate fee.
9TH state board OF education is one
Of the most important, created by our
constitution. It has an immense
amount Of work to perform, and
be given all necessary funds,
the end that it may promptly and
efficiently perform its many duties.
