Santa Fe June 80 What is believed to be
the first step towards ousting Ralph @. Ely
from the rec eivership of the New Mexico Cen

Wilson and e. w. Dobson, attorneys for the
Pittsburg Trust company, filed in the district

enumerated specifically, and it is cor tended
that they were issued to cover expenses of the
receiver in making various trips east and west
to arrange for the sale of tha railroad, and that
this is not proper expense to be charged
against the bondholders of the road.
1t is also asserted that the item of salary to

FRENCH AVIATOR
HAS BAGGED FIVE
OF ENEMY CRAFT

Paris, Feb. Sergeant Pilot Guyn-
mer, FL years old, of the French fly
ing corps, has just brought down his
fifth German adversary and has been
mentioned for his exploit in an Off
cia1 communication. Previously he
had been decorated with the cross Of
the Legion of Honor, the war cross
and military medal for other feats.
M. Guynemer was a lad in college
when the war began and he enlisted at
one. He had never been in an aero
plane but at the end of seven days
of training he made his trial fight for
a pilots license. Six weeks training
usually is required.
His work at the front began in
April, of last year. 1t was not until
Dec. that he began to make his
record by hunting German aeroplanes.
At that time he brought down, single
handed, a, large German bip1ane.
Sergeant Guynemer flies alone, as
did Garros and Pegoud, but instead of
a monop1ane, he uses a great biplane
on which he makes go miles an hour.
He, accounted for four machines in
nine days.

BAN LIFTED FROM
STATE SANTTORIA

Hartford, Feb. 8-The State Tuber-
culosis Commission at it's meeting yes
terday decided to remove the Quaran-
tine against the admission of visitors
to the state tuberculosis sanitoria, in
force since the outbreak of the cpl
demic of grip. It was said the cpl
demic had a serious effect on persons
afflicted with tuberculosis and in
many instances throughout the state,
where the disease had been arrested
the attack of the grip made it active
again and in some cases the effect was
fatal. There are today 529 patients
in the sanitoria.. There are 20 vacan-
cies in the shacks but none in the in
firmaries where the most advanced
cases ara placed. The commission
has a large waiting list of advanced
cases. The necessity of providing
more room will be brought to the at
tention of the general assembly at the
next session.

The Belgian government had passed

USE OF LIMEWATER
IN CLEANING CHURN
Essential in Butter Making to
See That All the Apparatus
Is Absolutely Clean.
By E. 8. ANTHONY. Pennsylvania

fBy e. 8. ANTHONY. Pennsylvania
State College.)
After the butter Is taken from the
churn the latter should be rinsed out
with warm water, and the rinsing fol-
lowed by a thorough washing with
very hot water. The rinsing out with
warm water will remove any butter
milk which may remain in the pores
OF the wood. The hot water will re-
move any fat which may be left in
the churn.
1t Is never well to use soap powders
on the interior of the churn. but the
occasional use Of o small amount of
dairy washing powder or limewater Ii
beneficial. To keep the churn sweet
and free from odors and taints q small
handful Of lime placed in some water
in the churn or in the last rinsing Of
the churn Is very effective. It is very
essential In good butter making to see
that all apparatus used is absolutely
clean and free from undesirable odors
and taints. a. these are quickly ab.
sorbed by the butter.

SECRET OF KEEPING
HENS SUCCESSFULLY
Good Ventilation and Dryness Are
Essential for Good Health
Of Poultry Flock.

r Keeping hens In fresh, reasonably
dry air is one Of the secrets Of keep
ing them successfully. In the hen.
house good ventilation and dryness
are 30 essential that the most skill
full breeding, feeding and rearing
cannot make up for their lack. They
are among the fundamentals Of good
husbandry wherever hens are kept,
and are very likely to be found to-
gether. At least 1t Is difficult to Sc
cure dryness without a generous
amount of fresh air. It has been
estimated by scientists that hens
breathe more air per pound of live
weight than any other class Of farm
animals.
Two hundred five-pound hens will
breathe nearly three times as much
air as q COW weighing thousand
pounds. yet they are kept in closely
crowded sleeping quarters. Every
hen In the flock breathes out impuri-
ties that are poisonous to the others.
and she breathes In the impurities
given out by them unless there is suf-
tcient ventilation to carry away these
impurities and furnish fresh air in
.heir place.

ter to produce crop Of alfalfa on .
light sandy soil than on one Of heav.
Ter nature.
A very heavy clay soil IL likewise
not the most suitable for growing al.
falfa, because ~ the roots have much
difficulty in pushing down through the
heavy soil and hence their feeding
area is restricted; (2) drainage is poor
in a heavy clay soil and the subsoil
may contain too much water for opti-
mum plant growth; (3) heavy clay
soils are difficult to irrigate, and II
the fields are not leveled properly.
when the irrigation water is applied
1t will stand in the low places and In
all probability kill the young alfalfa
plants.
Another thing to be avoided in se-
lecting an alfalfa soil is an impervi.
Gus layer of "hardpan" few feet be-
low the surface. A layer of hardpan
is liable to cause waterlogged soil
because 1t holds water very efficiently
and does not allow downward percola.
ton Of the excess irrigation water.
This impervious layer also hinders
root penetration very materially.
Another factor Of importance is the
depth Of the water table below the
surface. Alfalfa roots cannot live for
any length Of time In free water. II
the water table is within few feet Of
the surface. as soon as the alfalfa
roots reach this free water. the plants
begin to lose their vigor and very
soon die. This is due to the fact that
the roots become diseased and decay
In the free water and also because
their feeding powers are restricted to
such q degree that they cannot sur.
vive.
Since alfalfa is usually planted with
the intention Of growing the crop on
the same field for long period Of
years, the above factors should be
taken into consideration as much as
possible in selecting a suitable soil for
our alfalfa field.
