 Washington, June S.-Secretary Wilson today denied pubiished re- ports that, the, eDvernmsnt was con- sidering forming . national industrial control. No labor dictator, he said II needed.
 There hos been no necessity" said Secretary Wilson. for such action. because of the spirit of cooperation that has existed since the beginning of the emergency amongst ell class of workmen."

Articles describing the grain crop prospects as good without shadow appear in the various papers, but the same assertions !were made before tho harvest of 1915 when the grain crop was a bad failure, and before that of 1916. which. despite optimistic esta- mates, turned out to be barely 25 per cent above tho preceding year.
 A hint of somewhat different possi- bilities is given in . paragraph which slipped into . slowing account of crop prospects In tho Weekly Woche. This paragraph says:
 "If all conditions continue favor able Germany can hope for barely . medium harvest. owing to the lack or fertilizers, particularly nitra&es."
 The fruit harvest. according to ex- perts, will also be only medium.

TESTING OUT THE VALUE OF
DRY FARM FEED AND HAY

The State Agricultural College is
planning to carry on a maintenance
test with range cows this winter in
cooperation with the Tucumcari Field
Station of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. This test will
be started about the first of the year.
1t is intended to use cows which will
drop their calves about the first Of
April. One pen will he fed Cowpeas
hay and Kafiir ensilage and the other
pen will be fed Sudan Grass hay and
Kafir ensilage. The purpose of the
test is to learn the value of these feeds
for carrying over such cows during
the short grass months and also to
note the quality of calves brought
from cows on the different feeds. 1t
is believed by the Agricultural Col
lege that it is an economical PROPOSE
ton to grow feeds here for maintain
ing cows during the winter rather than
to depend upon grass alone or on grass
and cake. In feeding tests on this
station the past three winters the Col
lege has in each case purchased the
feeders outright. This winter it is
the intention, if the right sort of cows
are available, to borrow the cows from
one of the local stockmen in return
for the feed given the animals. This
will be a mighty good proposition for
the one having the right kind Of COWS,
The results of a maintenance test
like this will be of great value to
the stockraisers in this section just
as the results of the fattening tests
carried on the past three winters and
the results of which were published in
New Mexico bulletin 10S entitled The
Utilization of Dry Farm Crops in
Beef Production" will be of value tc
those stockmen fattening out steers
The feeding test this winter will bt
carried on at the Tucumcari Field
Station and will be started about tn,
first of the year.

where or when the war will end. Now
is the time to do our part and every
American citizen should stand behind
the government. We have Germans
and Austrians in this country who are
more patriotic than some Americans

every project proposed to assist the

must not go to sleep on the track. Al,

CITY ELECTION IN APRIL

Tucumcari is to have another city
election in April. A mayor and four
councilmen will be elected. Many of
our best citizens are being asked to
u for mayor, but as usual they are
not DESTROYS of making the race, and
some of them say, I'VE do not want
to be made your goat" This is not
as it should be. There is not enough
salary attached to the job to pay any
business man for the time and trou-
BILE he is subjected to after he is elect
ed. He is blamed for the ineficiency
of the marshal, or the water superin-
tendent, or the clerk; in fact, for ev-
erything that is wrong with the city,
the poor streets or what not.
We have many good men who have
the interect of the city at heart, and
we earnestly hope the citizens will
choose such a mar as mayor. He may
not belong to your lodge or church,
but his heart is right and city affairs
will be handled correctly. 1t has been
suggested that the Office Of marshal
be made elective instead of appointive
and we are heartily in favor of such
a move. This would take a load of
of the mayors shoulders. New Mex,
leo will be dry after next October sc
it is up TO the voters to choose a mar
for mayor who has backbone enough
to make Tucumcari bone-dry, a mar
who detests bootleggers as he would
an alien spy. We've got plenty Of
good men so let's encourage them t.
lend their services to US for a couple
of years.

STAND BY UNCLE SAM

Our leading editorial last week has
cat ed considerable comment, both
COOL and bad. 1t was not our inten-
ton to stir up strife and contention,
as some would have you believe, but
the opposite was our earnest desire.
Reading the papers and noting what
our army and navy is preparing to do
and knowing that they cannot accom-
plish their purpose unless we stand
solidly behind them we are DESTROYS
to encourage every man, woman and
child to put their energies into this
world crisis and do their bit at home.
Our boys are over there ready to fight
and give their lives for our sake and
if they are captured by the Germans
they are sure to pay the price with
their lives as has already been demon
strated.
There is much foolish talk about
this or that fellow being a pro-Ger-
mar that is wholly unwarranted. The
editorial last week only suggested that
a committee should be appointed to
look into these matters and see wheth-
err the assertions being made are true.
We haNS many NltiHSiiS ~ VIM SahAic
from German ancestors. In fact the
majority of Us can trace our ancestry
back to Germany, but that does not
mean that we are against our govern
ment.
The local council Of defense appoint.
ed by the governor has power to act
when we have sufficient evidence that
a man or woman is lending aid to the
enemy, but the citizens of America
are called upon TO assist the council
of defense. A German spy will moi
preach his doctrines from the street
corners. He goes about his work Sc
cretly and would do anything to &C.
complish his purpose, but some meI
are outwardly against the government
and these are the ones who must b,
shown there place. We perhaps can
not make patriotic citizens out of then
but we can close their mouths and b,
SO doing aid u government in mus
tering men, arms and finances witt
which to help put down prussianism.
Imagine, if you will, that German.
has conquered France, England ant
Italy. What would it mean to Unite
States? Our seaports would be raid
ed and if successful there our larg
cities on the coast would be loote
