DID WORK OF HIGH ORDER
Designs Wrought by Ancient Peruvian
Dyers Have Been Given Much
Praise by Experts.

The ancients of Peru, by a curious
coincidence-for there could not pos
sibly have been any intercourse with
their contemporaries in India and
Egypt-seem to have used much the
same kind of processes in printing
their designs upon the fabrics they
manufactured. Both Herodotus and
Pliny, among early historians, have
told us about the cloths of vegetable
fiber made by the ancients; but in all
likelihood the fabrics of the Peruvians
were of even a more remote date. In
some respects the methods of today
bear strong resemblance to the, older
practice. The chief difference con-
sists in the patterns now being en-
graved upon copper rollers and several
colors being printed at one time. Just
as today the coloring matter of dyes
is not affixed by merely printing it on
the material, but is secured by means
of a substance known as mordant, so
did the Peruvians make use of prop
erty which caused the dye to adhere
and to withstand test of thousands
Of years wear and tear. Experts have
declared that in the direction of tech
nical and artistic value the designs in
question have no equal.

RAT is FRIEND OF MINERS
Workers Warned Of Coming Catas-
trophe When the Rodents Leave
'TunneI-Are Fed by Men.

Investigators of mining conditions
and the peculiar dangers to which
miners are subjected recently have
taken much interest in the practice
of Western gold miners to make pets
of the rats which commonly infest
mines. On the mother lode of Cali
fornia it has been found that the
miners invariably feed the rats and
take care of them, believing that the
rodents are source of protection
against accident, says Our Dumb Ami
mails. This is due, the men say, to the
instinct of the rats, which warns them
when a tunnel is unsafe. And when
the rats leave a tunnel it is almost i'm
possible to get the miners to work
there. This recalls the belief among
sailors that rats will leave a doomed
ship. The miners also have found that
rats are much more susceptible than
humans to the dangerous gases that
SO often cause loss of life in the mines
Long before the miners themselves are
affected by these gases the rats be-
come sick and show symptoms of dis
tress. SO the men keep close watch
of the rats good health.

The Value Of Land
In Las AnimaS County

Over in Baca county during the
past fifteen years those doing
good farming have realized all
the way from $500 to over 500.
on their crops per acre.
Also in Baca county during
the past fifteen years no one on
sandy land, and probably none
on other land, failed to raise a
fair grain crop.
And
The difference between Baca
! and the east end of Las Animas
county is the difference of an
imaginary line between them.
Here is the question:
What is land worth on which is
realized anywhere tom $1,000
per acre up on it's crop and pro-
duction each year.
We believe it a general rule
that land is worth per acre about
what it can produce in ten years
to pay for itself.
To put it in other, words man
buys farm back east if he
thinks he can pay for it in ten
years time.
On that basis, we ask our read
ers to say what this land is wort
the facts Of production being as
stated.
Let us give you eastern people
a tip. Whatever may be consid-
cred the value of this land, now
is the time TO get on the ground
floor, either for speculative pur-
poses or for a home.
Land is selling here at S.. 90 to
$1,000 per acre-iust because
eastern conditions don't yet pre-
vail here.
But in ten years from now it
will be different, and this land
will then sell something in pre-
portion to what the land will pro.
