BUILDING UP LnRnsRLlRc.

The Liberal is a staunch believer in
building up Lordsburg. And the
only way that can be done is to keer
as much money in the community a.
possible.
1t is clear to anyone that gives the
subject serious thought that mercan
tile prosperity rests upon trade; and
trade rests upon traders; and where
there are no traders there is no such
thing as mercantile prosperity.
OF course, there can be such &
thing as a community without stores
or without industries, for that matter
Such a community of necessity would
have to be populated by persons who
live off their money.
Those who cannot live off the mag.
nitude of their possessions must gain
their livelihood through industry Of
trade.
And if Lordsburg were a place be-
reft Of both industry or trade. not
a resident Of the contiguous sec.
tons would ever think Of commrs 10
Lordsburg unless he had to attend a
funeral here, which, under such cir
cumstances, probably would be very
often.
All together, everybody And lets
keep our town ALIVEl
And the way to do that Is to keep
the dollar-the blood Of local prog.
ress and enterprise, right at home.

THE DEBATE IS CLOSED.

II most certainly is to the credit Of
Lordsburg's citizenry that since the
entry of u country in the great war
they have worthily decided that the
debate is closed and henceforth
everyone IS endeavoring to do a bit
to help win the war.
Dissenters we have had in Lords
burg prior to the war. Some were
neutrality-suspicious., others pacifsts,
others middle--o he-roaders. They
were honest persons with honest
views, and it was given to nobody to
find un-Americanism in their make
up.
Many local citizens worked for
peace to the last moment of peace.
And now they are working for peace
by working just as assiduously to
win the war; for it is a condition of
lasting peace that the military
autocracy in Germany be Inundated
before the German people to the point
where this branch Of the human race
will have no more Of such rulers.
Lordsburg citizens, no matter of
what racial extraction, are now fully
aware Of the real issue in this war.
and are doing their best to aid in the
good work.

HOW TO DO IL

Some deluded folks in and near
Lordsburg seem to imagine that they
cannot get anything as cheaply here
as they can by sending their money
afar off.
Those who do this should make a
practice of watching the ads in the
Liberal closely.
That's where the bargains are 70
be found. When a merchant has con
fdence that the price has has set or
an article is a "puller" he invariably
has the business courage TO announce
it. Otherwise the advantage TO him
would be small-it would be like do.
ing business in the dark.
Watch the Liberal and prove that
you can buy as cheaply here, all things
considered, as anywhere.

THE PUMPKIN
MAYOR TO RUN BOTH TOWNS.

We have some mighty glad news
for the people Of Pumpkin Hill this
week and that is the report that
Mayor Swellguy is going to continue
TO run Pumpkin Hill and keep ms
mayor business going here in the
future as In the past, without a hitch
or backfire. The mayor, who always
did have more brains than is indicated
on the outside, has been doing a little
scheming during the night. lie has
written to the Turnip Ridge people and
told them that he will open an Office
in that town two times every week,
having bought an extra desk at Nifty
Higgins sale last week and using the
same specs and pencil that he uses in
Pumpkin Hill. The mayor is conf
dent that he can run both towns with
as little trouble as he can run one, as
both towns have their meetings on
the same night and he can have one
Of the meetings cancelled every month
because people know he can't be at
both places at the same time. This
will mea only n meeting a month,
anyhow, and the mayor is fully cap
able Of holding that down. He says
that every now and then he will can
Gel both meetings to keep the towns
from getting Jealous. If the editor
of The Pumpkin Hill News had the
brains our mayor has, we would
donate one-half Of them to the in
sane asylum and give the other half
to our subscribers.

LIZ USE sOME KERosENE.

There are certain low-lying places
around Lordsburg that are filed with
stagnant pools. These are founo
everywhere, Of course, but they are
doubly obnoxious when found near a
community.
Yet none Of such places can be

attended to.

toes and other parasites that are not
only uncomfortable TO have around IN
summer, but are disease carriers.
Every stagnant pool in and neaI
Lordsburg should be douse6 wiz
kerosene at the proper time in the
spring. Every Lordsburg physician
will know when this is.
In this way millions Of mosquitoes
and similar pests can be exterminated
before they are born; and this sure.

HILL NEWS
WANTED no SEE HIS Girl.

WANTED TO SEE HIS GIRL.
Abe Medley went to Cucumber VAL
ley Sunday morning to see his girl,
Miss Nimble Smiley. For the last
ten years, ever since Abe knew
Nimble, he did his spooning after
supper, but now since he is figuring
on gettin' spliced next week, he
thought he would make the last call
in the day time to see what Nimble
looked like, as he had never been able
TO find this out in the dark and had
to 90 by what other folks said. From
what we hear, Abe is satisfied with
the deal only he would rather not had
the red hair. He says he's not so all
fired particular himself, but mis-
turkey gObbler is, and he reckons
he'll have to keep Nimble and the
gobbler on different sides Of the
fence.
While going down in his cistern last
Monday to see how full it was, ST
Rubbins lost his footing and fell
clean to the bottom. ST says he
reckons he would have broke his neck
if the cistern hadn't been half full,
but some Of his friends claim that
81 would have never fallen if he
hadn't been half full himself. Put
the blame wherever you want to-
The Pumpkin Hill News is neutral.
1t is reported that Miss Milly Milk
weed will not have her face powdered
anymore. Her friends, who have
grown tired Of the scenery anyhow,
hope that she will have it pulverized.

RESULTS OF GARDENING.

BY cultivating a garden, we are
told, we will live longer.
Working an hour or so daily in
ones garden prevents hardening of
the arteries, aids digestion and most
certainly induces a healthy appetite.
Those in Lordsburg who cultivated
gardens last year are SURE they are
entitled to a long life therefore. They
will get enough exercise out of it to
make them think they're going to
live 200 years.

THE BOND ISSUE AND YOU.

THE BOND ISSUE AND YOU.
Uncle Sam is raising over seven
billion dollars in bonds to carry on
the great war. Three billions 20 as
oans to the allies. We therefore are
financing the allies as well.
Let's figure out how every man,
woman and child in Lordsburg will
be bonded for this huge debt.
There are 100,000,0 900 people in the
country. Divide this into even billion
and you get $40, which represents
the amount hanging on the necks Of
