unfortunate time-when the nation

taken opposition Of a portion or the
socialist party to the United States
entry into the war is to be deplored
we cannot help but regard the sup

to increase, rather than TO diminish
the suspicious with which many pep

1t is to be hoped that the Reformer

odly much Of the anxiety over the an

manga Chickamauga was one of the
most lamentable blunders in the his

that people should bark back to the

STOCK RAIsERs ANr. STATE FAIR
Secretary Davis Invites Farmers to
Make Exhibits in September

Secretary Davis Invites Farmers TO
Make Exhibits in September
Vermont stock raisers should take
greater interest this year than
heretofore in the Vermont state fair
which will be held at White River
Junction, Sept rs. 10, 20 and 81"
said Secretary Fred l.. Davis the
other day.
Conditions brought about by the
war, will make the exhibits in the
State department from outside the
state somewhat smaller in number
than usual Therefore, Vermont
farmers should avail themselves by
sending larger numbers Of stock
than in former years. The state
fair commission will pay the same
liberal premiums as in the past and
this money can be made to remain
in Vermont II the stock raiscrs in the
state will improve the opportunity
My advice Is to start now and get
stock to be exhibited into shape. We
can make this a real fair for our own
people If we will take hold and show
an interest.
There was at one time a desire on
the part Of some members Of the com
mission not to hold the state fair this
year and this because of the war, but
With all the county fairs to be held
il would have seemed strange to
have dropped out the state fair Gov
ernor Graham was emphatic in his
expression that the state fair should
be held as usual.
In France and England ! under
stand the customary fairs and exposi
tions have been held just as if there
was no war to disturb things

LOSES LIFE IN HAIL
STORM AND FRESHET

J A. Miller, of near Broncho, lost
his life Sunday night in the severe
hail storm and flood which visited
the county west of here. He and
his father were caught out in the
storm, and when attempting to go
to the aid of some unfortunate
motorist, the young man was caught
and carried away in the swift cur
rent. The body was not found until
the next day at distance of about
four miles from where he was
caught.
Gil Perea, living northwest of
Willard lost about 1000 sheep. which
were caught in a draw when the
water came down and carried them
away, and the bodies were strewn
for miles down the stream. Jose
Ma. Torres lost about 200 and Fran
cisco Sanchez about 800.
Monday morning the country rorth
and west of town was flooded. The
water was running over the New
Mexico Central tracks north of town.
and many autos were compelled to
turn back.
The hardest hail appears to have
fallen in and around Broncho and
in some places it drifted at least
ten feet deep. Heavy rains fell a.
round Mountainair and north along
the mountains.-Willard Record.

FENCE THE RURAL SCHOOL
GROUNDS AND PLANT TREES

Observance of Arbor day in the
rural schools of New Mexico last
April was not as general as had been
expected, according to a tabulation
of the reports on the day by rural
school teachers, just completed by
the Department of Education. Only
467 trees were planted by school
children in the entire state or less
than one tree for each 220 children
of school age as shown by the GEN.
sus. A total of 1882 boys and girls
participated in Arbor day exercises,
or less than one-fourth the number
who took part in the patriotic OBJ
servances of February while the num-
Der of visitors to schools for arbor
day exercises was 1866 as against
1900 who attended the February
celebrations.
The reports of the rural school
teachers show clearly, however, that
conditions on the school grounds
are chiefly responsible for this lack
of Arbor day activity. A large num-
ber of the reports state that their
school grounds are unfenced and that
without fencing shrubbery and young
trees would be destroyed by live
stock during the vacation period.
Others show that lack of water for
irrigat tion makes tree planting I'M
practical These reports have deter
mined the Department of Education
to enlarge the scope of next years
Arbor day campaign and to make
it include an effort to interest pa
rents and school patrons in provid-
ing fencing and water for irriga-
ton where needed Local pride will
be appealed to and also the useful
ness of an attractive district school
campus, not only for the benefit
Of the children, but as social cent
er.
Santa Fe county led the state in
number of schools holding Arbor
day exercises. Taos county was
second and Luna county third.
