HAGEN COAL

1--WE aim to place coal from
1.-THE Hagen fields on the Albu-
querque market this winter, if
we have to haul it here by
automobile trucks" said DR.. J.
Austin De Praslin last night.
DR.. De Praslin is president of
the United Sulphur & Devel-
opment company of New Or
leans, La, which concern last
spring purchased the Hagen
coal fields from the late Col.
w. S. Hopewell. The COM
pany also has a lease on large
tracts of timber land and an
option on sulphur deposits in
Sandoval county.
Dr.. De Praslin arrived yes
terday morning, j. j. Payne
and wife reached the city last
night. Mr.. Payne is a planter
and lumber man from Alexan-
dria, La, and a director in the
company of which DR.. De
Praslin is the president. Eight
other bankers, lumber men
and planters are on their way
here and are expected to ar
rive within the next day or
two. When they reach here
the entire party will make a
thorough examination of the
coal fields, the timber land
and the sulphur deposits.
The object of their visit is to
go over the various holdings
and decide upon a definite
program to be followed out in
developing them. Among 9TH
err things is to be considered |
the building of a railroad from
the north end of the coal
fields to connect with the San
ia Fe north of Bernalillo, and
the extension of the New Mex
leo Central from Moriarty to
the south end of the coal de-
posits. Both companies, it was
said, had agreed at one time
to make these extensions. DR..
De Praslin stated that if there
had been any change in their
attitude, his company was
ready to make the extensions.
The United Sulphur & De-
velopment company will be un-
able to handle the timber in
Sandoval county, but expects
to sell it to some of the di-
rectors who are experienced
lumber men. If this is done
a railroad will be built into
the Jemez country to bring out
the lumber and also the sui
phur.
Pending the arrival of the
other members of the party,
DR.. De Praslin and Mr.. Payne
will visit the Hagen coal fields
today.
The visitors will spend a
week or ten days in this vi
cinity, then return to New Or
leans and decide upon a plan
to be followed. 1t is certain
however, according to DR.. De
Praslin, that albuquerque will
be able to burn Hagen coal
this winter.
Mrs. Payne expects to spend
several months in the Jemez
country, and the family may
decide to locate permanently !
in this section of the country. !

forced to decline a great many
carloads because of advanced
costs which necessarily ad-

Sales have been confirmed

shippers holding at $3.50 and
the available lots in smaller

We look for steady market

Denver, Colo, Aug. 21.-
There seems to be nothing new
in the bean situation. The de-
mand is very light and the sup
ply still smaller. There was
quite a lot of beans sold to
brokers lately who are unload
ing. The demand for splits
and Gull beans is good. The
weather is still dry and the
crop is still suffering. Our
Iprevious estimates of not to
exceed Is per cent of a nor
NAL crop is about right for
Colorado, Montana and Idaho.
The crop in New Mexico is
good but as usual the acreage
is very small.
New beans will be on the
market if the weather lasts as
dry as at present in about six
weeks.
The vegetable season in the
South is about over and the
demand for beans from there
has been better.-Ady &
Grove Mercantile Co.
Greeley, Col, Aug. 21-Sup-
ply of beans throughout Colo
rado is getting very low. Only
a few scattering cars left. The
conditions of growing crop is
very disappointing in the
northern part Of the state. The
acreage was much smaller this
year than last, and the contin-
ual dry weather has seriously
damaged the crop. Even with
the very best of conditions
from now on, production will
not be over twenty per cent of
last years crop. At present
the market is very unsettled.
Our last sales were made on
basis Of $7.25 per cwt., Gree
ley. A few of the growers are
still holding an occasional
car; some of them asking $3.50
to So per cwt.-The Farr Pro-
duce Co.

CLUB YOUNGSTERS
EXCEL IN SCHOOL

A boy OF girl who belongs
to one of the clubs organized
by the Department of Agricul-
ture and the State colleges gets
better marks in school than
one who doesn't. This is the
testimony of the county super
intendents in the counties in
which clubs have been organ
lied as brought out by a re-
cent inquiry in the Southern
States. In Monongalia county,
w. Va, for two years a COM
plete record has been kept of
SO club members and of the
same number of pupils of the
same grade and age and from
the same schools. The records
show that the club members in
their monthly examinations
have averaged Is per cent
above those who do not belong
to a club, IL per cent in at
tention, and 23 per cent in at
tendance at high school after
completing the eighth grade.
At the annual spelling contest
in the county all the winners
were club boys and girls.
A four-year record in Com
anche county, Texas, shows the
scholarship of the club boys
and girls to be II per cent
above those who do not belong
to a club. Of the 1000 boys
and girls in rural schools in the
county, not one expelled or
suspended was a club member.
The superintendent agree
that club members are more
active, have more inspiration
to do better work and possess
the desire to search for new
things. Very few club MEM
bers stop school in the lower
grades, and those not of their
own choice Weekly News
Letter.

CALIFORNIA CROP REPORT


show a further reduction in
prospective output of all beans
here. The Federal Bureau of
Crop Estimates report here as
of July l indicated a probable
production of beans in Califor-
mia of 100000 bushels. The
same report as of August 1,
Just made public from the Of
flee of local Field Agent E. E.
Kaufman, shows conditions
less promising, with an esti-
mated bean output for the
year of 5,353,000 bushels.
Lima beans show a decrease of
II points since the first of Ju-
ly in condition, and under the
decreased acreage promise,
from the government report,
not over 100000 sacks this year
as compared with 1,545, 900
sacks in 1918, At per cent
California Fruit News.
Chicago, Ill.-The tone of
the market, as we get into the
last half of August, is consid-
erably more quiet although the
general advance in values has
been in almost every case sus-
tanned.
Michigan is quoting lower
than was the case a fortnight
ago, while California is quot
ing higher. The Orient are
making somewhat lower prices.
The distributing demand
continues better than usual in
the month of August and was
extremely good during the last
half of July. Should we real
ize the usual demand in Sep
tember and from that time on,
a very active trade at the pres
ent range of prices may be
looked for.-Herbert w. Smith
Brokerage Company.
Detroit, Mich, Aug. 21.-
Considerable interest is being
accorded the new crop of 1919
Michigan beans. There is a
great deal of a bullish senti-
ment eXtant over a supposed
future shortage of reduced
acreage and imaginative ex-
tenuating conditions affecting
the growing plants.
The acreage is smaller than
that of last year, but the pres
ent estimate is for $4,000
acres with a probable produc-
ton of 3,654,000 bushels in
Michigan. The State Bureau
of Crops estimates the condi-
ton as about 80, and per-
sonal visit to the largest bean
growing sections of the state
confirms that percentage with
a conviction that it is not too
high.
A large number of fields are
in almost perfect condition
due to general rains and other
favorable weather. Good
weather for the next 80 days
is far from improbable and will
bring another crop equal in
quality to that of last year, If
not so large.
Some of the earlier planted
fields will have some beans un-
der cover and ready for the
market about the middle OF
September.
Against last years average
of 8 or 8 bushels to the acre
some fields will yield Is to 35
bushels per acre.

There is to be a determined
effort made to have the gov--
ernment turn over public land
to the states. The governors
are going to form a lobby for
that purpose. If New Mexico
should get possession of the
government land remaining in
the state it would no doubt
be to the advantage of the
big stock men, who could then
get ranches shaped up with
out being troubled by the
|nesters. Whether you are for
or against the scheme depends
on what you want, The state
would gain financially, Of
course, by getting a present

Deputy Wilson, shortly after the shoot in, it should admit the statement made by the boy to County Attorney Laney.
 MT. Laney objected on the ground that the law prohibits the admittance as evidence of statements made to an attorney by client. When M. Nevitt declared that young Patterson is not a client of MT. Laney, and proposed to obtain the stenographer's report Of what had transpired at the interview between Mir. Laney and the accused, MT. Laney again objected, quoting a statute which preserves inviolable the relation between attorney and his clerk or stenographer.
 Both MT. Laney's objections were sustained, and although he was placed on the stand by MT. Hewitt in an ef- fort to obtain the substance of desired interview, MT. Laney refused to an swer, objections of Assistant County Attorney Lewkowitz were again upheld by the court, and the affair ended with victory for the prosecution.
 Miss Edna Crofoot, a superintendent at St. Joseph's hospital, and Dr. Harry Carson, also testified at the afternoon hearing, the former giving testimony oi no particular value to either side, anc the latter agreeing with pr. Sweek 1T his opinion that the gunshot wounds or Patterson's body were an indirect con tributing cause of his death.
