ferred to conditions in the earlier
years and on up to the present. De-
spite the assertions of historians and
publicists that conditions in New Mex

when he said that until a short time
ago there existed only two classes of
people IN the state, the rich, powerful
and influential, and the poor, weak
and helpless.

Old Days Harsh.

i ''The former ruled with an iron
hand and practiced slavery in various
degrees, entering into agreements
with the latter under which their
children were parceled out for num-
Der of years to be used in the herding
of sheep, goats. cattle and the per-
formance of menial tasks. A lordship
existed to the extent that one class
was kept at the mercy Of the other,
from which gradually evolved the
custom Of the poor serving the veal
thier people. For years, no public
schools existed, and in later years
when the public school system was es-
| tablshed, it was a mere farce almost
! to the time New Mexico became a
state"
To this peculiar situation Mr.. Con-
way traced the roots OF such condi-
tions as exist even to this day in many
| rural communities, where the par
ents imagine they have done their
duty if they enroll their children as
demanded by the compulsory law, and
then countenance the most irregular
attendance.

Closing in on Jerusalem.

In Palestine, the British are closing
in on Jerusalem, their official state
ments claiming added interest be-
cause of their increasingly frequent
mention of Biblical names. The site
of the ancient Mzpah, some eight
mile west of Jerusalem, was carried
by storm. Northwest of the city the
British were still closer, but their
mounted troops, near Beitonia in this
sector, were forced back a short dis
tance by strong Turkish counter
attack.
American destroyers in the war
zone were successful recently in sink
ing German submarine seemingly
beyond all question, according to both
official and unofficial account. The

tached a line and was attempting to
tow her.

Late Berlin papers contain amusing

Berlin railway stations are besieged

they arrive at the country railway

March Hints for Poultry Raisers

March Hints for Poultry Raisers.
The University of Missouri
College of Agriculture offers the
following suggestions for poul-
try raisers:
/. Hatch early.
2. Use fresh eggs.
8. Long, pointed, short, round
thin or too thick shelled, eggs
should not be used for Matching
purposes.
4. Chilled chicks are apt to
have diarrhea.
5. A good incubator insures
early matches.
6. The pullet Matched before
April 10 is the one which will
lay next winter.
Z. If incubators are used, re-
member that it is just as i'm
portant to have a good brooder.
8. The small coal stove brood
er which will accommodate 300
chicks is a good investment.
9. Little chicks should be
kept dry. Don't turn the hen
loose too early in the morning.
10. Yards sowed to oats fur
nish hens and chicks material
that can be supplied in no other
way than by green food in some
form. Later, rape or buck
wheat can be used to advantage.
II. Most people either raise
twice as many chickens as they
should or provide half enough
brooding equipment. Plan your
equipment for the worst wealth
er that can be expected.
12. Initiate nature in her

nest in a bottomless box on the
ground or put an overturned
