WILL DEMAND HERD LAW

The farmers in the portion of the
Rio Grapdc valley in Dona Ana coun-
~ are coming before the legislature
With a strong demand for a herd
law with sufficient teeth in it to
make it uncomfortable for the live
stock owner who permits his animals
to trespass On crops.
The people of that part of the
state estimate that they lost $40,.
900 worth of crops that way this
year which is plenty to cause them
have demands that should be
granted.
1t should not be a hard matter to
frame a local option herd law that
will permit each community to de.
eide whether it wants a herd law or
and what portion Of the year
il should be effective.

ITS CHANCE

The hour of the worlds regene-
ration has struck. The crash of guns
has died away. In the silence that
follows we can hear more clearly
the call of Humanity. In the con-
fusion and distraction of war II was
difficult to get the pleading tones
of a world in trouble. But they
come to us now
The stiffness invites thought. In
it we begin to measure what the new
world will require and what we are
fitted to do. Many reconstructions
will be called for. In their solemn
and urgent demand we may be in
some. danger of forgetting the pa
thetic claim of a world in sorrow.
But we shall not be fit to meet
the call to this new worid-battle. in
new constitutions are to be
framed and new governments are to

INVESTIGATE, THEN HOLD

Savery's Market Letter published in
Denver which is devoted to mining
information gives some mighty good
advice to those who contemplate in
vesting in mining prospects,, or who
have already done SO.
The difference between Investing"
and gambling" when applied to
mining is neatly and forceful pre-
writer says: "If he wants to gamble
he should buy stocks listed on some
stock exchange" Few people who
have never been intimately connect
ed with mining seem to realize that
the ga milling" starts only after the
mine becomes a producer and it's
stock gets on the boards and it be-
gins to be a bait for dividend sharks.
Regarding this subject the Letter
says:
There is a class of small purchas-
ers of mining and oil shares who
expect dividends even before the
work of the company can be started,
1t takes time and money to develop
a dividend-payer, and the investor
should not be over-anxious for re-
turns from his Investment, for he is
very liable to be disappointed If he
is. Then there is the man who buys
a prospect for stock market profits.
A new company is organized to de-
velop a property and he buys a bloc
with the idea in his mind that the
shares win score an advance and he
can unload at a profit. Nine times
out of ten he is disappointed, for
the reason that the shares are UNI
listed and the only market for the
stock is that which is created by the
promoters of the He is dis
appointed to learn that he must hold
his stock like other stockholders and
awai. the outcome of the develop
nent plans Of the Some
times he sacrifices his shares 20 the
injury of the nlpan and some
times he uses logic and holds his
shares, in this way getting his full
measure Of profit that comes through
the successful development of the
company's holdings.
1.-THE buyer of a prospect mining
or oil stock should carefully i%nvcsti-
gate before investing, and after he
has invested should hold his shares,
awaiting the outcome Of the COM
pany's development plans. If he
wants to gamble he should buy stocks
listed on some stock exchange, and
a good rule to follow in this CON
nection is to buy listed stocks out
right for cash and not trade on mar
gin. The prospect stock of today is
the listed stock of tomorrow. Hold
your prospect shares, for always re-
member that one success will wipe !
out many losses and may make you

And now along q professor
who says that the educated people
of America are stacking on the job
of parenthood. He claims that among
this class a family Of less than four
children is . Stacker family.
He makes no mention Of the prices
Of food, of coal, of rent, Of clothing.
of domestic service, of specialists and
of shoe-laces.
An era of high prices is an era
of low birth rate. Americans are
ambitious for their children. They
realize that children must be care
fully reared and sufficiently educat-
ed, or they suffer a lifelong handi-
cap.
When lower prices prevail again
the birth rate among the educated
Of America will rise.

THE OUTLOOK FOR OIL.

More financially responsible CON
Germs are becoming Interested in oil
prospecting in New Mexico than ever
before and the chances for develop
ing producers during the next year
are better than ever before.
While considerable drilling has
been done, it is safe to say that
none of the wells have been put down
to the depth recommended by the
geologists who have examined diff
ferent fields in this state, all of them
having stopped because of lack Of
sufficient capital or because of drill
ing difficulties. This is unfortunate.
especially when we consider the fact
hat in almost every section of the
state where drilling has been done
oil and gas have been found in small
quantities., SO that its existance here
al no longer be questioned-it is
simply a question of finding the right
location, or of drilling deep enough
to tap the productive deposits.
That oil exists here has been
thoroughly demonstrated already.

He said Britain had more thai double that tonnage.
 In the Skagerrack battle, he says the German fleet was saved from de truction partly by good leadership and partly by favorable weather.
 He said the German losses on tha occasion were enormous, and it be came clear that the fleet should rsl no more general naval engagements
 Another reason, he said, was the scarcity of material. Several bat tie ships had been disarmed anG their guns placed on board of sub marines
 He said last year Germany built S3 submarines, and 66 of these were destroyed.
 The naval critic in his article de clared that Admiral Von Tripiz wanted to continue building battle ships, ad became obstinate when the government ordered more subma rines to be built instead of battle ships.

CRlCSBY LEAVES TO ARGUE FISH
 TAXATION ACT
Attorney-Ge Will Go to Washington to Appear Before Supreme Court
 in Tax Cases.

The Hon. George B. Grigsby, at torneygeneral of the Territory or Alaska, will leave tonight on the Princess Mary on his way to Wash ington. D. C., where he will repre- sent the Territory in the Supreme Court hearings of the cases of the Alaska Pacific Fisheries vs. the Ter ritory of Alaska
 These are cases which were brought in the District Court in Jul neau to test the validity of the Ter ritorial License Act The cases were decided in favor of the Territory by Judge Robert w. Jennings and later by the Court of Appeals. They were taken to the Supreme Court on writ of error.
 Notwithstanding the fact that these cases are still pending, all of the canneries, under protest, have paid their taxes to date. Hence the outcome of these cases in the Su- preme Court involves not only the several hundred thousand dollars al ready collected by the Territory, but also the validity of the Territorial system of taxation and the means of raising revenue for the future support of the Territory.
 Mrs Grigsby will return to Jul neau with MT. Grigsby.
