BRAND YOUR AUTO TIRES

"Rrand your automobile tires as the
cattlemen brand their stock, if you
would stop stealing and make it pos
Sible to recover castings that have been
stolen" is the advice of the r. F,
Goodrich Rubber Co.
Thousands of dollars worth of tires
are sold each year at public sales con-
Quoted by police departments through
motorists inability to identify their
property.
Tires may be marked by labelling
the inside Of the casing with heavy in.
delble pencil marks. Thus the mark,
together with the tire serial number,
which should be recorded by the owner
the very first thing after purchasing
new tire, furnishes means of iden-
tiication and recovery.
Likewise, magnetos, battery equip
ment, spare rims and tool kits should
be branded. The small amount of time
consumed in placing Identification
marks will more than repay the motor
ist for his trouble.

WINTER WHEAT

10000 acres were Sown to winter
wheat in the State this fall. This is
considerably less than was sown last
year, but only 100000 acres of last
years was harvested and the yield
was very low, due to abandonment
from the prolonged drought in the
spring.
The four counties OF Curry, Mora,
Union and Quay plant over 50 per
cent of the winter wheat of the State,
and the condition of the crop in all
these counties is excellent. owing to
heavy precipitation there in the past
two months. Present indications point
to large yield. The yield will be
larger than last year in spite of the
decreased acreage.
In the irrigated sections many farm
ers have substituted other small grain
for wheat this fall.
In the United States there has been
an increase of 6,720,00O acres over last
year. The condition of the crop for the
United States is above normal. and,
with an average abandonment from
winter killing, the crop will exceed
three-quarter billion bushels, the big
gest crop of winter wheat on record for
this section.

GUARANTEED PRICE FOR
WHEAT WILL HOLD GOOI

Will the guaranteed price of wheat
continue after the Presidents procla-
nation of formal peace? This is the
situation.
The Food Administration Grain Corr
poration was on June 81, 1918, desig-
mated to purchase the 1918 wheat crop
offered for sale before June /, 1919,
and will carry out this obligation al
though peace should be declared prior
to June /, 1919.
The Presidents proclamation of Sep
tember 2, 1918, established the price
for the 1919 wheat crop offered for
sale before June /, 1919 "to such agent
or enploye of the United States or
other person as may hereafter be des-
ignatcd." So far no agency to carry
out this has been named
Though the Grain Corporation has
been designated to purchase wheat the
producer is at liberty to sell his wheat
to mills, elevators. or other agencies
handling grain.

spirit of cooperation being always In
the ascendent. | am interested in the
temporal prosperity of Tucumcari and
have strong admiration for the energy

in store for her. Prosperity is the
most severe test that comes to the
churches and through the railroads
this has been prosperous community.
In consequences the churches have not
been as aggressive as the business in

ter days are ahead religlously for the

erywhere that man cannot neglect God
with impunty. "The wages Of sin
is death" not as a punishment, bL, as
a consequence.
Particularly do | wish to thank the
Tucumcari press for it's uniform cour-
tesy to things religious and to me per-
sonally.

LETTER FROM ASA F. EVANS

somewhere IN rance, NOV. 70, 1915
Dear Father and Mother:
J realize that sometime has passed
, without dropping you folks few lines
but ! knew you received the Red Cross
card o X and anyway there isn't much
to be said in letter.
First Of all we made the trip with
out any mishaps and about the only
disagreeable thing about it was lit
tie rough weather. At the place we
landed the weather was very incle-
ment most of the time, and the mud
was ankle deep-the ducks couldn't
eat it up fast enough. However, we
didn't stay there very long and the
place where we are now is much bet
ter in all respects, and it is lot
warmer and rains very little.
France is great country, a pretty
country, a nice country, and ] like it
very much, but withall the brown
prairies, with their mesquite covered
sand hills, still look good enough for
me. Can't tell you much about the
country now or what | have seen, but
may be able to relate all the details
in person u little later on. The main
thing is, outside of a bad cold, ! have
felt fine ever since we landed in France
On the Goth received letter.
sure was glad to get it as it was the
only letter have received since I've
been here. My address is
Prvt. Asa F. Evans, Batt'y &c"
45th Regt. Arty, c. A. c., A. E. F.
P. S.-You don't need to answer this
letter or send me anything. One thing
be sure Of that is to save me por-
ton of your Christmas turkey.
A merry Christmas and a Happy
New Year to you both and give my
regards to all the folks.

SANTA CLAUS DELAYED

The west is practically without rail
road transportation to the east and
south. There has been no service to
the east by way of he Santa Fe or the
Union Pacific roads for the last twenty
four hours. Some passenger trains
are moving on the Rock Island hut are
many hours late. The Colorado 4
Southern route has not yet been able to
send train through Texas from Den
yer since Friday. The line is open as
far south as Trinidad, Colorado.
Billiards in Kansas and in the Texas
panhandle have filed the right Of way
cuts with snow to depth of twelve Ia
fifteen feet. A maroonCi passenger
trains have been held at eating house
stations, railroad officials report, and
there is no suffering among travellers
The tieup of rail traffic means that
Santa Claus is going to be late with q
considerable portion of his pack. Tons
of Christmas presents consigned to
the west from the east and south are
stacked in cars throughout Kansas and
northern Texas and in eastern Colo
RADIO. Even should these lines be
opened Tuesday afternoon, as railroad
officials hope, the Yuletide off fsring:
can not reach New Mexico in time
for distribution by the postoffice and
express company.

WILSON SENDS CHRISTMAS
GREETINGS TO u. s. PEOPLI

Washington, Dec. 24.--President
Wilson in Paris sent to the American
people today the following Christmas
MESSAGE
81 hope that it will cheer the peo-
pie at home to know that / find their
boys over here in fine form and in
fine spirits, esteemed by all those with
whom they have been associated in the
war and trusted wherever they go, and
they will also, am sure, be cheered
by the knowledge of the fact that
throughout the organizations with
which we have been associated in this
war, public opinion strongly sustains
all proposals for a just and lasting
peace and close cooperation of the
self-governing peoples of the world in
making that peace secure after its
present settlements are formulated.
Nothing could constitute more ac-
cepteble Christmas reinsurance than
the sentiments which ! find every
where prevalent.
