Natural ponds are found bet~een
these hills, which hold water dur
ing the rainy season, A small
ridge Of mountains lie southwest of
here where the cedar and pinyon
pine trees grow. They furnish
posts and excellent wood. The
pinyon pine has on it waxy SUBJ
stance, which is very healing for
all kinds of sores. A mountain
called Iona Alto" is situated
northwest Of here.
The soil varies from 3 and q
inches to 40 and SO feet deep. 1t
is very rich and productive and is
of a reddish sandy nature; also
holds moisture better than any
soil we ever saw. Corn stood I12
days last summer with less than
one half inch rainfall and then
made some ears. Milo maize,
feterita and kafir corn made about
two thirds of a crop. Other crops
raised here are millet, cane, broom
corn, buckwheat, fax, cowpeas
and castor beans. The biggest
money crop in New Mexico is
pinto beans. They are worth 10
cents per pound at present. The
soil is we'll adapted to the raising
of watermelons, muskmelons, pea
nuts, squashes, and pumpkins.
Apples, pears, peaches, cherries,
plums, ounces. prunes, grapes,
himalaya berries, gooseberries and
currants are the main kinds of
fruit here. Trees are very healthy
and fruit is of good quality, not
having worms or rot and brings a
fancy price.
The raising of chickens and tur-
keys are both paying industries.

OBITUARY..

Isaac Lauderbaugh, one OF Pres
ton's best citizens, passed away
Tuesday, April 3, 1917, as the
clock was striking 3 p. m, at his
beautiful country home where he
had long suffered with cancer of
the stomach and leakage of the
heart.
Isaac Lauderbaugh was born in
Columbia County, Pa, January 70,
1912, and on December 28. 1866,
he was married to Miss Mary
Catherine Fowler. To this union
we're born FIVE children, as follows:
Mrs. Emma Clark of Carthage,
VIM. Lauderbaugh and Mrs. Mag
gle Byers of Preston. Elmer Lau-
derbaugh of Jasper, and Mrs.
Mamie Frost of Pearl, Idaho.
Mr.. auderbaug was the oldest
of family of 10 children of whom
6 survive. They are VIM. Lauder.
baugh of Hazleton, Pa. Emanuel.
of Geneseo. Ill; Fayon, of Kan
sas City, MOI Mrs. Amanda Rolen
of Abingdon, ILL., Mrs. Susan Rapp
of Hastings, Nebr ; and Mrs. Cath
crime Brown of Carthage, Mo.
In the fall of 1869 Mr.. and Mrs.
Lauderbaugh moved to Jasper
County settling on a farm near
Preston, where they have resided
ever since. BY his death this COM
munity feels the loss OF very dear
friend. Mr.. Lauderbaugh was a
man of mental endowment far
above the ordinary and early in
life became influential among his
neighbors. 1t is only natural that
the passing away of such a man
should bring much sorrow. Deep
sympathy is felt for the wife and
children while they mourn for the
one that was so dearly loved. Mr..
Lauderbaugh will be sorely missed
in his home, in church, in Sunday
School and by the whole commun-
ity. He joined the Presbyterian
Church at Preston in October
1877, and for many years has been
an elder in that church. His en-
tire life was characterized by his
useful and inspiring energy, His
interest in the christian religion
was such that he was not selfish to
his own preferred denomination.
but gave literally of himself and
his money in any way he could to
assist in the work of God.
Mr.. Lauderbaugh and neigh.
Dor organized Sunday School at
Preston as years ago. which has
been an evergreen Sunday School
ever since. His efforts in this
branch of work has been so faith
fully discharged that his life will
be as a bright star in this commun-
ity for many years to came.
Funeral services were held at the
Preston Church, which was filled
with the sorrowing friends, very
few of whom could not tell of
some kind deed shown them by the
deceased. The choir sang several
beautiful songs, among which were
my Jesus. l love thee" and
when my life work is ended"
These were favorites of the de-
ceased. Services were conducted
! by Rev. McCaughtry and Rev.
Eubanks. lnterment was in the
Brethren Cemetery.

London. April 14.--The far-reaeh-
of the battle of Arras is being revealed
in successive chapters to the British
public which hardly realizes yet that
1t is the most effectual and decisive
event to the credit of the British dur
ing the war 1t may well rank with
the battle of the Marne and may prove
the turning point of the whole war in
the west and change the balance Of
tho world war.
Field Marshal Haig's bulletin to-
night giving the number of guns cap
tured as 1866 and the aggregate OF
prisoners as 1900 and the details OF
new territory gained for France from
the invader. marks the battle OF Arras
as great victory. But the signifi-
cant statement from Field Marshal
Haig is that the British are astridc
