CLAYTON HIGH SCHOOL
BONDS "OVER THE TOP"

Wednesday of this week was elec-
ton day in Clayton, but very few
voters left their places of business
long enough to vote. Out of some
1000 voters in this school district on
ly 40 votes were cast.
In the construction of the new
High school building the school
board found themselves short of
funds with which to complete and
equip the building. So they asked
for S25,O0OOO with which to build a
ward school on the West side of
town and to furnish the new High
school building. Only thirteen votes
were cast against the bond issue and
one hundred and seven in its favor.
1t is believed that all those opposed
to the bond issue voted, but it is
generally known that the remaining
voters who stayed at home on cleo
ton day were in favor of spending
more money for better school fa-
cilities in Clayton.

FAIR GROUND PUR-
CHASE ONLY A
DREAM r

Last week the News stated that the
County Commissioners had purchas-
ed from the town of Clayton, the
thirty acres of land known as the
fair grounds. IL is true they did en-
ter into such an agreement with the
town board. However, the people
of Clayton upon learning about this
deal protested in no uncertain terms,
and persuaded the town board to
rescind its former action and for
ever hold these grounds as the prop
erty of Clayton.
The people of Clayton are desirous
of making a city park out of the
grounds now being used for the
county fairs. Trees will be plant
ed and other improvements made.
a swimming pool is being talked or.
This park when completed will not
be for the exclusive us3 of Clayton
folks, but will be a public place op-
en- to the people from the country
and for tourists. passing thru Clay
ton to use as a resting place and
camping ground. 1t is the intention
of our City Board to provide for the
regular County fair. The Fair As
sociation will be given an invitation
to corporate with the town of Clay
ton in the holding Of their fair. The
city will furnish the ground, lights,
water, etc, free of charges to the As
sociation, the management of the
fair to be in the hands of the Fair
Association.
| There is no reason why we should
not continue to hold our regular
annual county fairs as in the past
rhe mere fact that the right Of III
tie to the grounds on WHICH the fair
is to be held rests with the town OF
Clayton is no reason why Onion
County farmers should not manifest
as much interest in the fair as il
the grounds were owned by the
County.

MORE ABOUT w. S. STAMPS.

In last weeks issue we boasted that
Union County had subscribed all
but 3 per cent. of her quota of War
Savings Stamps. We are now in re-
ceipt of letter from Mr.. H. b. Hem
ming, publicity Agent for New Mex
i,o War Savings Committee, in which
he states that Luna county has
reached its quota, and that only one
tenth of the states annual quota has
been bought. 1t looks as if we will
have to get busy and do some hard
work to come up to our quota as a
state.
Union County is so near the top
that we are sure of going over. But
this can not be done unless somebody
increases his subscription or some-
one comes across who has not here
tofore signed a pledge card.
The time has come when there
is no room in this land for slackers.
If you have not done your bit, yes,
your best, your neighbors will find
it out and you will be reported to
the County Council of Defense. The
Secretary of this Board will in turn
send you a little yellow card which
if there is an ounce of American
blood in your veins, will humble
your pride and cause you 10 offer
your all for theP Country that has
so generously guarded your inter
ests and has guaranteed a continu-
ance of the privileges you have en-
joyed in the past.

UNION COUNTY BEAN
GROWERS ORGANIZE

On July 23rd large crowd of bean
growers from all parts of Union
County met at the Court House and
affiliated themselves with the Bean
Growers Association of the State. A
local organization with twenty-six
members was formed and a board
of directors elected.
We are glad to see the farmers Of
Union County taking an interest in
their own affairs to safeguard them
selves against the greedy proflteer
iwho is ever ready to take advantage
of the unprotected lamb grazing
away from the main herd. In uni
ty there is strength" By this means
of organization every bean grower
in our country will know how, when
and where to sell the product of his
years labor. By close cooperation
the farmers will be able to assist one
another and in this way will greatly
increase their own earnings.
The News wishes to see the farm
ing interest of Union County devel-
Oped. As the farmers prosper so
will every other interest prosper at
the same time.
The News is willing to assist the
farmers of Union County in the mat
ter of locating market for their
beans and other crops. We are not
asleep. neither are we dreaming but
we are wondering why you farmers
could not get an out-Of-town buyer
/ to look at your broom corn last
fall, when at the same time in other
parts of the country buyers were
offering fancy price for brush. Here
in Union County, the home of broom
corn, the buyers apparently did not
know we were on the map. Mr.
Farmer, there is something wrong

GARAGE DEALERS OF
CLAYTON 100 p. C.. PATRIOTIC

\ few weeks ago the Garage deal
ers of Clayton, at the request of the
state Council of Defense, agreed
among themselves to close their
places of business on all holidays
including Sundays and at six o'clock
in the evening other days. This
was done to helr the Government
save gasoline and labor.
Garage dealers in other states re-
fused to follow the example set by
their business associates of Clayton.
This placed our local garage dealers
at a disadvantage. Tourists travel
ing from points in Texas to Colo
RADIO were urged to go miles out of
their way in order to pass up the
one town along their route that had
complied with the Governments re-
quest to save gasoline and labor.
Consequently our garage dealers
have revoked their former closing
order as matter of self protection.
However, they are not ashamed of
their action. and we are authorized
to say that they will again adopt the
same or any other rule if by so do
ing they can serve their country
These patriotic men are to be con-
graduated upon the spirit manifest
ed in their willingness to sacrifice
their own business interests in an
effort to conserve for the Govern
ment.

SOLDIER ADDRESSES MOTHER
DAUGHTER FOOD CONGRESS

Among the many treats for the
i,izens of Clayton attending the
iother-Daughter Food Congress In
Ssion at the new High School, none
as more enjoyed and appreciated
ihan the Thursday afternoon lecture
~ Private w. E. Collinge.
As Mr.. Collinge stepped forward
On the rostrum the audience, as one
person, rose to their feet out of
respect for the man and the prin-
ciples for which he stood and for
which he had fought.
His first remarks We're to the eff
feet that there was much wondering
and speculation as to why there
was no milk in Germany, but he said
that the situation was easily explain
ed by the fact that the Allies had got
the Kaiser's goat"
Mr.. Collinge joined the army four
years ago this month. At that time
he was told, as others were, that
to become a soldier was to become
a rough-neck, but he was glad TO
say that he had found the finest
gentlemen in the world in khaki.
He spoke feelingly of the way
Canada had entered heart and soul
into the present conflict, stating that
although the first call was for on
ly 10000 men, between 100000 and
10000 Immediately applied for en-
listment.
One of the interesting statements
he made was in regard to return
ed soldiers. If a Canadian soldier
comes home minus two arms and
two eyes he will be taught to earn
a living-if in no other way, by
lecturing. If both arms, both legs
and both eyes are gone, excess mon
ey made by proflteers and taken ov-
or by the Government will be used
for the care of the returned hero
and his family.
Mr.. Collinge told a pathetic Incl
dent which occurred when he, as
head of the Returned Soldiers AS
sociation, met some of the boys be-
ing brought home to Vancouver. A
little girl discovered daddy" among
the wounded men and ran up to kiss
him. The poor mans jaw had been
shot off and replaced by an artificial
one, but the work had not been
well done and as the child tried to
give him a welcoming kiss, the jaw
dropped off and the young mother
seeing what had happened, fell dead
of heart failure.
The lecturer urged the people to
prepare for many more years of
war saying that victory would come
only when all on this side of the
water had proved themselves to be

BEAN GROWING IN THIS SECTION IS A
PROFITABLE INDUSTRY 8

Within the last three or four years,
especially since the world war Great
ed an excellent market, the bean
growing industry in Union County
has become one of the most impor-
tant and profitable lines of agricul-
tural endeavor. During the past two
years farmers in this section of the
state have made large sums of mon
ey in bean crops, and indications are
that the crop this year will be more
profitable than ever before. Most
of the beans grown here are the
Pinto variety.
Conservative estimates are to the
effect that more than eighty thous-
and acres of Union County will be
planted to Pinto beans this season.
The average. production per acre is
right around four hundred pounds,
which will make a total of approx
mately twenty-fOur million pounds
of beans for Union County this year.
Enough beans, you say, to feed the
allied armies of the world and still
have enough left over to give every
''roughneck" in the Kaiser's forces
the stomach ache.
Last year more than one million
dollars was paid to Union County
farmers for their beans. ApproXl-
mately sixty thousand acres Of beans
were harvested last year. Much Of
this crop was sold on the easern
and southern markets, and quite a
large percentage of it was sold to
the Government. Uncle Sam has
found that the Pinto bean makes ex-
cellent food for his fighting forces,
and has placed orders for large pro
portion of the 1918 crop. Union
County will, of course, furnish her
share for war needs.
Land in Union County is excep-
tionally good for the bean industry.
Past experiments have proven that
Pinto beans do well on dry farming
lands. The crop grows with but
very little cultivation, and with little
if any water. Farmers in this Sec
ton have discovered that the crop
is not only exceptionally profitable,
but is very easy to handle. Proper
cultivation methods are being
studied-such as rotation with other
studies-such as rotation with other
crops and the proper methods OF
fertilizing the land-and indications
are that this season will see some
amazing records for bean production
The highest production recorded in
this county is by a grower near Sc
dan who reports yield of nearly six
hundred pounds to the acre.
The bean industry is yet in its in
fancy in this section of New Mex
leo and the next few years should
see remarkable development in the
industry.
Eighty thousand acres this yeaI
sounds like large amount, but bean
growers estimate that next year this
will be increased to one hundred
thousand acres.

SAD DEATH.

Patricia Martha Hyde, the 22-
months old child of Mr.. and Mrs. Geo.
Hyde died Thursday of last week at
their home near Clapham in this
county. The sudden death was
caused by whooping cough. When
the mother discovered that the child
was seriously i'll she sent for DR.. j.
S. Darlington, of Thomas, but the
call was too late. Just few min
utes before medical aid arrived the
angel of death had found its way in
to the home. Patricia, but known to
her friends as 'Pattie," was loved by
all who knew her as a sweet smiling
baby just learning to talk.
The remains were inferred in the
Clayton cemetery Thursday. The
many friends of Mr.. and Mrs. Hyde
join with the News in extending their
sympathy to these heart-broken
parents in this their saddest hour.
