HARVEY
SAVING WHEAT;
USES FETERITA

Clovis, N. NJ, Oct. 30.-There is a
concerted effort on root to use sub
stitutes for wheat flour now. Few
people realize just what the plains
country can really contribute to the
movement, says the News. We raise
wheat in this section. but we raise
kaffir corn and feterita, too, and the
latter two ground together with just
a little mixture of wheat make q flour
that is hard to beat. j. o. Pritchard,
manager of the Harvey House in Clo-
Wis, informed the News mar this week
that in the neighborhood of 1000
pounds of feterita flour is used at the
Harvey House here each month. This,
Mr.. Pritchard says, is used mostly in
making pancakes. That the guests
like the taste Of the bread made from
the new plains flour is demonstrated
by the fact that more of it is being
used each month.

MAK|NSON CASE UP
IN S0C0RR0 COURT
REMARKABLE MARITAL DIFFICULT
TIES SAID TO HAVE PRECEDED
ALLEGED MURDER OF HUSBAND
AND FATHER OF II CHILDREN.

lSocorro, N. M, Oct. 31.-The jury
in the case of the State VS.. Julia Bell
Makinson, Bonnie Makinson and Lon
ME Makinson, charged with the kill
ing of the husband and father, be-
tween the latter part of June, 1916,
and the 9Th Of July Of the same year,
was not completeds until Friday, al
though the case had been set for
Tuesday, and the testimony of but
two witnesses for the state mad been
taken up to the adjournment Satur-
day. The case a resumed Monday.
A brief history of events leading up
to the case is given by the Chieftain
as follows: In 1911 indictments for
two assaults IN his wife, who is the
mother of IL children, were pending
in the district court of Socorr0 coun-
ty against Makinson, during which
time Mrs. Makinson secured a divorce
from her husband.
Later a charge Of insanity was pre-
ferred against the woman, and on the
dismissal OF the charge, the couple Sc
cured a license and were remarked.
Then between the time of the murder
and the finding Of Makinson's decom-
posed body in an abandoned shaft in
the vicinity of their home, which is
located close to the boundary line be-
tween the counties of Socorro and
Otero, and the arrest and preliminary
hearing Of the defendants in March,
1917, the woman had secured a Sec
ond divorce from her husband, which
is supposed to have been done in an
effort to create the impression that
Makinson had abandoned his wife.
1t is thought that on account Of
there being about Is witnesses to be
examined, the case will probably not
reach the jury before tonight.

That New Mexico's wool crop is
worth 49, 100000, and that the 1917
lamb crop will bring $t6,s0o,ooo, is
indicated In the October issue of
the Monthly Crop Reporter Of the
U s. department of agriculture.
The average price Of wool is
placed by the department at as
cents a pound, compared with %
cents in 1916, and the price Of
lambs at $t4 per hundred, as
against $3.50 in 1915. New Mex
leo is credited with a wool yield Of
100000 pounds, and II is esti-
mated that 100000 6o-pound
lambs will be shipped from the
state within the next few months.
The Crop Reporter estimates
New .MexIco's corn yield this year
at 1857, 900 bushels, worth $685.
900; wheat, 2,2f4,ooo bushels,
$4,317 300; oats, 2,143,oo0 bushels,
worth $t,4t4,3s0, and potatoes,
1,5tt,o00 bushels, worth $3,s99,777.
An interesting feature in con-
nection with the wheat estimate is
the statement that New Mexico's
normal requirement, including
seed wheat, is 100000 bushels,
the 1917 crop falling $4,000 BUSH
els short. However, this repre-
sents a big davance in wheat pro-
duction, az during the last ten
years the states wheat shortage
averaged f,s51,ooo bushels a year.

That the desire Of the state tag
commission Is, and always has beer,
to cooperate In the efforts of every
community In the state to improve it's
school and educational facilities, but
that such efforts sometimes result In
gross extravaganza and an entire dis
regard Of the most efficient use
OF money, is stated by Attorney Fran
els c. Wilson, of this city, one Of
the members Of the state tay comfa:a-
q on, In a letter to c. C. Manning Of
Gallup, regarding the school situation
there.
In a statement given out last week,
Urging defeat of the tax amendment
which seeks to place in the constitu-
ton the present statutory provision
limiting annual tax increases to 5 per
cent over the amount produced dur
ing the previous year, unless the APP
prevail of the state a commission Is
secured, State Superintendent j. II.
Wagner said that the statute had
operated ITO hold back school adj
vancement,' the NATURAL inference be-
ing that the commission had refused
to approve many school levies.
Mr.. Wilson's letter shows some of
the problems in connection with
school expenditures that the tax com
mission is called upon to consider. 1t
follows:
"Mr. C. c. Manning,
Gallup, ~. M.
Dear Sir: I know that you are as
much interested in the school situa-
ton in Gallup as any Of the citizens
of that city. Also, you are a large
taxpayer and are naturally Interested
in how your money is spent.
MIR. Swinney has ben before us
upon the subject of school improve
ments to be obtained by the expendi-
ture of money derived from. the bond
issue which has been voted by Gallu.N.
We are anxious to give the city OF
Gallup what it wants In the way of
schools, and W. will place no OBJ
stacles in the way of the citizens of
Gallup in this respect, but our posi-.
ton is that it is our duty to see that
the money of the taxpayers is not
wastefully di~ssipated. Mr.. Swinney's
statements showed that the conges-
ton in the school exists wholly in the
grades and, in fact, could be said to
be concentrated in three or four Of
the grades. Now the present plan
seem to contemplate the construc-
ton of a high school building, and the
expenditure of W. $4,000 for that
purpose. Mr.. Swinney's statements do
not show the need of a high school but
do impress us with the very great
need of increased grade facilities. We
suggested to him a plan of spending
$4,000 or $4,000 in increasing his
grade facilities, by building q four
room school house on the north side
Of the track, and he admits that this
would relieve the congestion for at
least a year or two.
1T was our plan also, which we
suggested to him, that this money
might be raised by four levies dis
tributed over four years instead of
interest on a large bond in
de~btedness, and ultimately having to
pay the principal. Also we submitted
to him a further plan Of increasing
the present building by adding on two

PANY IN ARMY, BUT AS GEN.

MENTs ARE FEW, SAY sRoBlN-
SON

The European war has aroused a
good deal Of interest among the In
dams in this part Of the country, bu,
so ar the enlistments in the various
branches of the service have been
few, according to H. F. Robinson, Of
Albuquerque, general superintendent
of irrigation for the Pueblo Indians
who passed through here today on
his way to various pueblos where he
will look into irrigation matters.
1T may be of interest to note" he
said, chat nine Indians from the
Hopi reservation, who had never seen
more than a tin cup full of water at
a time. have joined the navy to sail
the ocean blue. ] do not know just
what was the impulse they obeyed,
for | imagine the knowledge Of Hopi
Indians Of service in the navy and
salt water is limited. But it seems
one Indian had poined the navy, liked
the food and the life so much, he
wrote back to the boys at home and
his letter was a puller.
AN entire company of cadets at
the Indian school in Phoenix, Ariz.,
Joined the army, but that was because
they already were members of the
Arizona National guard"
Crop Conditions Good
Mr. Robinson said that the Indians
have done well with their crops this
year and that where there was plenty
of water stock conditions also showed
marvellous improvement. He said that
he had some statistics showing the In.
crease of both crops and cattle over
last year but did not bring them W tn
him. "The stock among the Navajos
and Hopi Indians particularly is in
fine shape" he continued. I'VE have
been fixing up water holes and drill.
ing wells in certain places and the in
crease in stock as the result was a.
least 500 per cent. North of Gallup,
in the Choiska valley, artesian wells
have been developed at a depth of 500
to 500 feet, affording an abundant

Americas Duty

There is therefore only one way In
which America can do it's duty 20 its
Allies. We have an extraordinary
orop of corn. We have an abundant
supply of food Of every sort and we
are the biggest wheat eaters on
earth. We can eat something else
ana release a portion of our wheat
for shipment to our friends acr.ss the
seas. If throughout our country every
man, woman and child would save one
pound of flour a week, our exp ,rtabis
surplus from 1925 crops would aa-
efegate 2oo.000,0o0 bushels. adding
100 COO, 900 to our usual cont ibution.
Our 10000 900 and canada's e0,ooO,-
100000 makes over 100000, 900 from
these two countries available for our
Allies, and there Is nothing left for
them to do when this supply 10 found
for them except to practice the same
se~lf-deniaI, like ours in character, but
UNNECESSARILY greater In ~degree-and
do without a minimum of 100000, O0c
bushels of wheat which they 80 soreIy
need.
LET us bring It closer home. If every
man, woman and child In New Mex
ice, by self control AMI a little self
denial, would substitute some other
food for wheat and save a loaf Of bread
a week for one year, we would fur
nisn all the wheat that woulc be re-.

Two Queries Answered
Il have been ASKED two questions
which ! desire to answer: Why don't
they get wheat from Australia If it is
there? This ! have shown you, ri
think, conclusively in the difficulties
of getting shipping and the tremen-
dous demands which have been made
not only upon existing vessels, but
upon the newly constructed ones
which are taking the place Of those
destroyed by the German undersea
go Why don't we ship potatoes
when we have SO great an abundance
and keep our wheat which we enjoy?
The easiest answer is that the potato
contains from 80 to S. per cent of
water while wheat is a concentrate.
If your cattle were dying on the
range and cars were scarce, 1t would
not be a question of price but of ton.
mage and you would say that it was
much better sense to ship corcen-
trated cottonseed cake than to ship
alfalfa. The cake is comparable to
The wheat. The alfalfa is similar to
the potato. No American who loves
his country and wants it to do its
duty is going to seriously urge that
ship water to the Allies when
hey want food.

all ources about $780, 900, 900 bushels,
of which the United States supplies
10000, 600, Canada 113, 100000. and the
other countries about $4,000, 900. It
appears that this 1888, 900, 900 bushels,
or almost one-half of their imported
requirements, is absolutely cut off as
long as a condition Of war exists.
Instead of producing 600, 1000, 900 bush
els this year, there is a crop shortage
in those countries of Europe, whose
cause is ours, aggregating almost
zoe, 900 900 bushels more so that there
Is a real shortage of nearly 400, 000,-
900 bushels to be derived from two
countries, the United States and Can
ada, whose total ex%portable surplus un.
der normal conditions aggregates less
than 200,000.00 bushels. In other
words they should have an additional
supply from the United States and
Canada twice as great as our nomal
total export.
