ALBUQUERQUE CAMP
EQUIPMENT NAV GO
TO STATE UNIVERSITY
BERNALILLo COUNTY COUNCIL
OF DEFENSE ASKS STATE TO
MAKE TRANSFER IN EVENT
WAR DEPARTMENT ABANDoNs
cANToNMENT

Albuquerque, NJ. M, Nov. 12.--dn
event the war department determines
to make no further use of the canton
ment on the mesa east of Albuquer-
que, the equipment there probably will
pass to the University of New Mexico.
The cantonment, known locally as
Camp Funston, is located on part OF
the university's 300-acre campus. 1t
was used for several months as the
concentration and training camp for
the New Mexico National guard, until
its recent removal to California and
the equipment is the complete estab-
lishment of a regular army camp for
1000 men, including officers quarters,
bunk houses, stables, etc. The ground
is wired for electric lights and water
mains are installed for the entire site.
The Bernalillo county council of de-
Tense has taken the initiative in the
matter with a resolution asking the
state authorities who built and
equipped the camp, to transfer the
equipment as it stands to the univer-
sity. The theory on which the request
is based is that there would be heavy
loss in wrecking and removal Of the
equipment, amounting to a total loss
in the matter of the water mains. The
university could make use Of a num-
Der of the buildings to care for the
overflow of students from it's crowded
dormitories. The gift also would per-
NIT an important extension of the
landscape gardening work just begun
on the university campus proper. This
includes terracing of the campus
along the entire Central avenue side,
and laying out of the grounds with
trees, shrubbery and lawns. All this
has been made possible at very small
expense by the ~university's new we'll
which is delivering a steady flow Of
pure water sufficient for the irrigation
of 160 acres or MORE.

The month began warm and rather
high temperatures continued till the
18th, when a sharp cold period
crossed the state. and second cold
wave occurred on the night of the
2Sth, with the lowest temperatures Of
the month ON the morning of tho
29th. The 4th was probably the
iwarmest day although, individual sta

end 15th-16th. The first general kill
ing frost occurred on the morning OF
the 10Th a day earlier than in 1875
The last week OF the month was
windy, blustery and ~disagreeable, but
the month, as a whole. was favorable
for the completion of fall work,
t~hrashing and marketing of beans,
picking. packing and marketing of
apples, digging and shipping pots-
toes, etc. Some loss, however, occur
red by the severe freeze of the 18th.
Range was very short and poor over
much Of the state at the close Of the
month, and. the condition of stock
was the most serious problem, be.
cause of the high cost of feed, and
the scarcity of winter range. The
dryness was unfayorable for fall
sown grain.
Temperature
The monthly lea for the state,
based upon the records Of 80 stations
a mean altitude of about 5000
fl. was 53.5 degrees, or O.4 degree
above the normal, as determined from
As stations having records for 10
years or more. The month averaged
O.6 degree warmer than October,
1916. The highest monthly mean was
63.3 degrees at AlamogordO and the
Elephant Butte dam, and the highest
recorded temperature was SO degrees
at Artesia on the 9Th. The lowest
monthly mean was Ais degrees at
Elizabethtown, and the lowest record
cd temperature l degree below zero
on the 18th at Fort Union, vermejo
Park and SeHorito. The greatest local
range OF temperature was GA
degrees at San Marcial on the 10Th.

BUY COAL NOW
ADVISES BUYING COAL EARLN-
LITTLE BROUGHT TO HEAD
OF THE LAKES.

Get your coal now is the word
brought back by men OF Madison
who visited the Twin cities this week
There Is not much coal coming up the
lakes, and what is coming is taken as
fast as it gets to the docks. they say.
The government is taking much of
the product of the P%ocahontas mines
taking it without asking for it. too.
And we who have no this power of
taking would better be asking for
our winters supply. is the earnest
advice.
w. |. Thompson, John w. Walden
and Marcus Aus returned last night
after spending several days in Min
neapolis. and reports the coal con
dition one worthy of serious consid-
Grafton. Lack of cars is keeping the
mines running only a portion Of the
time, and shipments are spasmodic
and uncertain. Lake transportation
is slow, and differs from that of
other seasons in the amounts deliv-
cred. There is no supply being piled
up at the docks at Duluth and East
superior as formerly. 1t is not now
a situation Of them trying to sell
coal. but it is a matter Of being able
to buy ii at all.
The government is taking the
greater part of the output of certain
mines, and diverting il to their own
uses. Mr.. Thompson said today that
unless federal supervision obtained
over the situation there would be
suffering for want of coal this win
ter. a limited amount of anthracite
may be had. One may be able to fiji
his needs for winter with bituminous
coal now, but the outlook for the
mar who buys in ton lots during the
winter is wholly ~uufavorable.
Railways are urging users to get
ii in before cold weather. They know
the probable shortage due TO diff
culties of prompt transportation and
lack of supply when the demand
comes, and would forestall the suf-
fcring that must ensue.
OF the flour situation Mr.. Thomp-
son said that there seems to be
enough of wheat and flour to go
round. IT viii be high in price. but
there will be enough. OF this com
modify he thinks there viii be little
or nothing gained by putting a sup
ply for the future.

terry consists of three units, and each
is costly. Each unit is driven by a
special and beautifully small indi-
yidual motor, and is mounted on its
individual stand.
The recording machine, to which
dictation is made at any time con
venient or desirable to the person
using it, is of much the same gen
eral form as an ordinary photograph,
but without simplifying horn or cone.
The speaking tube is hung on a hook
as with the telephone. When il is
removed from the hook the motor
starts automatically. A small button
on the tube controls the recording
cylinder, and when One starts speak
ing he presses the button. When he
is at a loss or hesitates for an instant
in debating he releases the button
and the cylinder stops. If he has
forgotten the continuity of his state
ment and wants a repetition of the
last sentence, he shifts a small lever
and uses a button for back spacing.
The machine will repeat il without
complaint, then he can go ahead with
his mot later than the 10th"
The cylinder on which the record
is made is said to be roomy enough
to contain 1900 words. Several let
ters can thus be recorded on one
cylinder. When the typist has fin
isheu powdering her nose she takes
this cylinder TO the reproducing unit,
and places it IN the spindle. 1t, too,
looks much like an ordinary phono-
graph, having instead of the sound
amplifier, a tube with ear pieces.
On this machine a foot control starts
and stops the cylinder, and thus the
language. In the tube itself is a
muffler to regulate the volume of
of sound-very handy in places
where the boss is addicted to violent
language. Listening to this. the typ
list can go as fast as she likes. And
if not fast enough, she, too, may
use the back spacing feature on this
unit.
When peace is again restored after
an argument as to the exact word
used. the office boy removes the re
corded marks from the cylinders
with a shaving machine. This ma
chine is of more simple construction.
and may be kept in the coal cellar,
or wherever the faithful |janitor or
office boy domiciles. The record is
placed on the spindle and the motor
quickly turns ii i'm contact with a
small knife. which removes all traces
of the former dictation, and makes
it as good as new. That completes
the round. But business men
throughout the country are waking
to the ~desirability and efficiency 81
the machine. and would rather dis
pense with the telephone than with
their dietaphone.
