New Mexico's Gain In Livestock

Growers association, and their value Is estimated

these give very fair idea Of New Mexoos importance
in the livestock industry
An interesting fact concerning the industry IS that
the value Of New Mexico cattle four years ago only
half what it IS According to the figures of the
association, It then S21O6ooOO, notwithstanding
the fact that the state has only about 10000 more
cattle than in 1912 The chief increase has
the value per head which has increased from $3.50 IN
1912 10 s4O1O in 1916
These figures would indicate that the packer not

cattleman Is benefng very considerably from higher
beef, and that must be partly true. It Is fact how
ever, that New Mexico cattle bring more money
than four years ago because they worth The

MAN BIG ENOUGH FOR
PRESIDENT TO LECTURE

The Current News Clubs next enter
tainment in the Lyecum Course, will
be tonight, December 20, when Herbert
S. Bigelow of Ohio, will deliver a lecture
at the High School Auditorium.
Mr.. Bigelow is described by friend
and foe alike as OF Presidential timber.
He is acknowledged as having been re-
sponsible for many OF the best and most
progressive features OF the Constitution
adopted few years ago by the state
of Ohio. OF him William Marion
Reedy, editor OF Reedy's Mirror, says;
''The hostile Cincinnati Enquirer con-
coded the mans ability and charm of
power, and I myself heard him make
one Of the three or four great speeches
l have heard in my life, 1t is not his
doing that he is becoming celebrity,
for he is man of genuine modesty.
His growing fame is Incidental to his
work, and into that work he has put a
soul strenuous. l have heard him twice,
and never was more charmed, even by
Beecher or Ingersoll. There's a splen-
did anatomy of thought under the fair
flesh Of his oratory, and his oratory
never becomes mere verbal initiation
He sticks to his text and to his argument
with the tenacity Of Lloyd-George."
DR.. Bigelow, who is known as the
preacher in politics. is taking an
active part in Ohio politics. He believes
in speeding up the people and getting
what good he can out of politicians and
sinners, to help him to his ends.
He studied practical politics with the
late Tom L. Johnson, long Cleveland's
famous mayor.
DR.. Bigelow was president of the
Constitutional Convention, and has
been mentioned by William ]. Bryan
as excellent timber for President of the
United States.
