THE SHAFFER BEAN HARVESTER

Glen Shaffer is building a bean
harvester which looks good for the
business. 1t is made to cut two rows
of beans at a time, pass them back,
and elevate them into a tank, from
which they are dumped in piles to
suit the driver
He has various attachments, which
may be added to or taken from the
frame work, by which the farmer may
transform his one piece of machinery
into several. For instanse, he can
remove the harvesting attachment and
using another attachment list his
ground and plant his beans; or by
using cultivating attachment, do his
cultivating. In other words he buys
one machine, with several attach
ments and does all his WORK, instead
of purchasing a different machine for
each separate work.
He will have his machine ready for
trial in the fields and after proving
it, will apply for patent rights.

SOME HINTS FOR
HOME CANNING

First, test your Jars. If there is
a crack, or the cover and clamp do
not fit tightly, failure is certain Your
cover must screw on tightly without
the rubber in all Mason Jars. If it
does not, discard it. Never use last
years rubbers. Never use rubbers
which come on the jars. Rubber
deteriorates and the jars may have
been on the store shelves for some
time. Buy the very best grade of
rubbers only and be sure they have
not been kept indefinitely in the shop
Have the rubbers fit the neck of the
jar like a vice while being able to
stretch it before putting on. Now
wash jars, covers and rubbers in
clean, hot, soapy water, taking special
care if they have been in previous
use. Rinse in hot water, place in a
large pan, cover with boiling water

A HOT NUMBER

Last Friday evening after having
maze up the mail of our Spanish
edition, we delivered It 10 the postof-
flee, shortly before the Postmaster
went to supper A little later we
were notified that our edition was so
"hot" that it had set the postoffice on
fire Luckily no greater damage was
done than to destroy the edition,
itself
1t seems that the box containing
the papers was set on the stove, and
that in some manner the papers and
trash inside the stove were started
burning, so that the whole thing
ignited. The fire was discovered be-
fore any serious damage was done.
Not having destroyed our forms, 1t
was a simple matter to print second
edition and make the mail over. Just
what there was in the paper to be hot
enough to start the fire, we do not
know.

ALL EGGS MUST BE CANDLED

The United States Food Admins
tration has ruled that on and after
June l, 1918, all eggs must be can
died by the buyer or seller, whether
he be general merchant, egg dealer,
or huckster. The purpose of this rul-
ing is to stop traffic in eggs which are
not fit for human food, to prevent
their entering the channels of trade,
and thereby preventing an enormous
wastage.
Careful and conservative estimates
show that for the past five years
during the period from June 1st to
October 1st, twenty-five percent of all
eggs were total loss and forty per-
cent materially deprecated in value.
In order to save as much as possible
of this food during the great emer-
gency the Poultry and egg section of
the Federal Food Administration rec
ommends:
l. Compliance with all municipal,
State and Federal regulations as to
Gambling and purchasing.
2. Cooperation with Agricultural
College Extension men handling the
work
3. That in every case of candled
eggs there be placed on the top layer
a Gambling Certificate.
4. That is it desirable thai these
recommendation be put into effect
on June 1st, 1918.
The matter is so urgent that the
Food Administration finds it impossI-
BILE to furnish blank certificates and
therefore, hopes that the various
trades organizations and individuals
will find it convenient to have them
printed conforming to the copy
planned by the government.
Forms will be supplied to make up
the certificates by the Perishable
Division of the Federal Food Admin
istration for Texas by addressing that
Department

J GERMAN LOSS IN
PRISONERS HEAVY

Paris, July 16-The battle contn-
ues violently especially south OF the
Marne and in the region of Chatillon.
Except for one sector south of the
Marne, there is no change in the stu
alton American and French troops
are counter-attackin magnifcently
and are taking many prisoners ac-
cording to the war office.
South of the Marine the Germ ans
have not been able to advance their
line beyond ST. Agnan, Lachapelle,
Monthodon, Lisires and south of the
forest of Bouquigny. The French in
this region have taken a thousand
prisoners.
On the front east of Rheims, in
spite of terrific fighting during the
past day and night the enemy has not
been able to penetrate the French
zone of defense.
The German loss in prisoners dur
ing the first day of the battle was ex-
tremely heavy.
Washington, July 16.-"The gener-
al situation this morning is regarded
as satisfactory" says war depart
ment statement issued today based on
dispatches from General Pershing and
General Bliss, confirming press &C.
counts of the fighting yesterday.
Warning is given, however, that great
pressure of reserves is still to be
looked for.
Early reports show that the Amer
ican troops are engaged heavily and
have restored their positions on fhe
Marine even more fully than during
the counter attack which drove the
Germans back to the river last night
The Germans appear to have forced
their way across the Marne on a con-
siderable front in the Dorman sector
It is believed, however that if the
American positions are maintained,
the Germans east of them will be in
great peril q
Farther east Franco-Itaian forces
are holding stubbornly along a line
generally about two miles back of
their original position.

AT BEAL'S RANCH

The Independent family spent the
first of the week at the Beal Ranch,
few miles west of Manzano, up among,
the pines. This is one of the pretty
places in the mountains, and is be-:
coming prettier every day. The fore
thought of our old friend, John w.
Corbett and j. A. Beal is seen in the
beautiful orchards now growing along
the sides OF the canyon, and which
within few years will be a verita-
BILE mint
There are some 1900 apple trees,
with good sprinkling of cherry and
plum and other varieties. Some of
the trees have few apples this year
The cherries are about all gone, al
though there were quite few of
these. Then there are the currant
and gooseberry bushes, which yielded
well. The raspberries are just COM
ing on. Mrs. Beal has put up quite

help ourselves to what remained. We
were lucky enough to get several gal

CHAVEZ FAVORS IDEA

Fred Chavez, one time member of
the New Mexico Legislature, was in
Mountainair Saturday, and when ap-
preached about the political situation,
said that he could not speak except
for himself personally. But that,
speaking in this way, he favored the
idea of forgetting politics this year,
and deciding on some way in which
the business of state and county
would be looked after, without spend
ing much money. He said he was sat
isfied that those higher up would hit
on some plan. both satisfactory and
legal. AS far as he is concerned, he
says that he is willing TO leave the
matter to the central committees of
the two principal parties and let them
divide the offices between the two
parties and name one set, of candi-
dates, and let these be elected with
out the expense of campaign Then

RUN OVER BY WAGON

The 11-year-old son of Jose Sanchez
of Punta, fell from wagon loaded
with lumber, which he was driving
from the mill to Mountainair, about a
half mile north of town, railing under
the wagon. The front wheel passed
over his body, injuring him severely.
He was brought in to the physicians,
who upon examination held but little
hopes of recovery. However, the lit
tie fellow rested fairly well last night,
and may get well. The mother was

lad at the home of Romualdo Mira

GERMAN DRIVE HALTED
PROVING DISASTROUS
AND COSTLY FAILURE

The expected German Drive was ini-
tiated the first of the week but accord
ing to reports lacked the punch. that
the Prussians have put into former
drives. The allies had figured so cor
rectly and had such information that
they were prepared for the attack at
the very points where the heaviest
fighting was launched So well posted
were the allied officers that within
five hours after the attack was first
launched, the Great Offensive was
definitely checked In the fighting
the Sammies played no small part,
deluging the Huns with machinegun
fire, and following this with open fight
ing, completely smashing the Hun
plans
Where gains were made at the last
onslaught, these were re-taken in
counter attacks almost all along the
line. 1t is estimated that between co.
600 and 10000 men were thrown for
ward by the Germans, in what proved
a practically vain attempt to force a
way through the enemy's lines. Many
prisoners were taken, and numerous
others, trapped by the swollen Marne
were drownded in attempting to re-
gain their German friends on the 9TH
er side of the river.
The Sammies proved themselves to
be equal to veterans, especially the
First Army Corps, who met the ini-
tial attack of the Huns.

CLAIRE BURRUS KILLED
WHEN CAR TURNS TURTLE

On last Saturday, while on a trip
from Estancia to fatigue, the car dri-
ven by Fred Burrus turned turtle
pinning both Mr.. Burrus and his lit
tie son under the car. Mrs. Burrus,
who was with them, crawled out from
the wreck, and went to Tajique to
summon help to lift the car. The
child was found to have been killed
Immediately, his skull being crushed.
Mr.. Burrus was badly bruised, but
not seriously injured, and is reported
as well on the way to recovery.

With the American Army on the
Marne, July 15.-American troops in
a magnificent counter attack have
thrown the whole division of Germans
back across the Marne in the curve Of
Jaugonne. There are now no Ger
mans across the Marne in front of our
troops. At 10 o'clock this morning
there were $4,000 of the enemy in the

Expected Offensive Launched
The Germans launched their expec-
tel offensive this morning on a front
evidently extending from north Of
Chalons in Champagne, westward to
beyond Chateau Thierry. The Hun
drive fell against the American troops
east OF Rheims, east Of ChateauThier-
ry and west of Chateau Fhierry. AS
this is written from the vicinity of the
latter place it is known definitely
that the fighting rltcndS east beyond
Rheims. The offensive in the region
of Chateau Thierry was preceded by
an intensive artillery demonstration
beginning at midnight An hour after
midnight, the whole countryside was
lit up with the flares of thousands
of cannon. Not only did the Boche
heavily lombard the front lines, but
it is evident that he is using the new
long-range guns. He shelled points
20, 25 and 80 miles behind the line.
Germans Cross River.
AS this is written the Germans have
crossed the Marne, where the river
makes salient northward at which
point is Jautgonne, and have advanced
three and half kilometers.
This is held partly by Americans
and partly by French. The salient
was exposed to fire from three sides
