Glenn Broom Company A Great
Industry For City; Is Known
Throughout The Entire Southwest
Has Many Employees and
Business of This Enter
prise Is Nothing Less Of
Phenomenal.

MO one other industry in the city
~ Of FL Paso has given this city
such wide publicity as has the Glenn
Broom company.
The great southwest portion of the
United States has drawn on this firm
for its broOms, and today probably no
one FL Paso concern is better known
than is this one.
When buying brooms every loyal
patriotic E Paso housewife, as well
as those living distant from this city,
should insist that the brooms they
buy are made in FL Paso. By buying
FL Paso made broo9s, loyal American
housewives not only help a local IL
dustry, but keep many hundreds Of
dollars in this territory.
Many Americans Employed
Inc CuuCt4A en- FAofs many PDoPArs
Fully 100 people are kept busy regu-
larly in the manufacturs Of the
broomA
One Of the features that the broom
industry means to this city is that
the farmers of the valley viii be able
to raise an additional crop that viii
mean thousands of dollars to them
annually, and this with practically no
labor. Broom corn is becoming more
and more scarce and the demand is be-
coming, naturally, greater and greater.
Practically everything that is need
ed in broom making is TO be had here.
Broom corn, from which the straw is
obtained, can be raised in this valley
very successfully. This was proven
last fall by a number Of the local
farmers who planted the seed sup
piled by the company.

A BAD BILL.

The bill to establish AN Addi-
tional Battalion for the Minnesota
National Guard" has been before the
Military Committee and been recon-
mended to pass. 1t has been some
what amended and some, objection
able features have been taken out,
but it is just about as Objectionable
as ever, and should it pass, which
it is hoped it will not, some of the
short-sighted colored men who were
the cause of it's being framed will
very probably have cause to regret
that such legislation was enacted in
Minnesota.
AS a matter of fact there is abso-
lutely no need for such a bill. The
bill under which the present Mime
sofa National Guard was organized
is all that is needed except that 1T
be amended to authorize the organi-
cation of another battalion just ex-
actly as the ones now in existence
were organized. There is no neces-
sity whatever for the bill in question
and it should not pass:

3. c. ARCHER ALMOST ARRESTED

For some time there has been in
this city little club of ladies known
as the E. T. 1. and they got along
nicely until on one occasion they
invited their husbands to a meeting.
Said husbands have been somewhat
envious of the nice times their wives
were having and they issued prOpa-
ganda that resulted in Mr. B. c..
Archer claiming to be president, and
he appointed each of the husbands to
an Office and issued invitations to
the wives and a few other persons to
day evening. The wives accepted,
also on hand. Whist was the feature
of the evening and FIVE tables were
being played when lat about 10
O'Clock two policemen appeared at
the front door and created cOnsterna-
ton by producing a warrant for the
arrest of the usurping Pres. Archer.
Excitement was high for a few mo-
ments until the matter could be ex-
planned to the officers, who thereupon
gracefully retired and all again
settled down to the enjoyment of the
occasion. Mr.. Archer saw the error
of his way and coming down from
his high horse asked pardon Of the
ladies and promised not to offend
again.
A very dainty, delightful luncheon
was served.
The ladies' prize was won by Mrs.
Jackson Sparks and the gentlemen's
prize by DR.. Val DO Turner. Those
who enjoyed the occasion were: Mr.
and Mrs. J. e. Johnson, B. G.
Archer, H. C. Richardson, C. W.
Wigington, J. C. Adams, Waldo
Turner, Clete Oliver, Jackson Sparks,
Lieut.. Frank Wigington, Mr.. Peavey

HE SLEEPS ON WINDOW LEDGE
Thousands Watch New Porter Slumber

Philadelphia.

Philadelphia. workers in the
buildings near Broad and Chestnut
streets and thousands of pedestrians in
the street had the chill of their lives
as they watched a man lying on the
ledge of window of the Land Title
building, taking a siesta.
Entirely oblivious to the commOtion
he was creating, he slept peacefully
on his arms outstretched in luxurious
ease, his feet sticking over the edge Of
the sill from which was a sheer drop
Of forty or fifty feet to the pavement.
His slumbers, however, were soon
brought to an end when repeated tele-
phone calls to the building superintend-
ent's office told Of the sleeper and his
perilous couch. The man turned out to
be a new porter and John, the head
porter, climbed out, woke him and soon
brought him black to earth" both
Hguratively and physically.

FORTUNE LOST IN STRIKES
Labor Disorders in Ruhr Coal District
of Germany Prove Financial
Disaster.

Berlln.-The strike recently conclud-
ed in the Ruhr coal district has cost
the miners 100000 in wages. The
output deficit for April is 100000
tons, representing more than $4,000
000.00 The loss to physical property
is believed to be SO great as to pre-
clude profitable operation for a long
time to come.
The miners in the Ruhr coal fields
are more than $25,000,O00 out on their
wages account as the strikes have been
going on internationally since the begin
ming Of the revolution. In the Ham
born district miners struck So days out
Of 140 working days between November
8 and April %.
The loss to the nation ais a result Of.
the coal strikes cannot be computed. It
caused a general paralysis Of railway
traffic, the shutting down of Industrial
plants and a loss Of revenue and
freight to the state railways. The M,
tional strike fever is believed to have
caused depreciation in the national
of more than 100000, 1000.
and to have aided to repress the value
of the German mark abroad.

GROWS GARDEN TO BUY CALF
Washington Boy Raises Prlze-Winnlnr
Vegetables and Buys Jersey
Heifer With Money.

Prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
Alfred Olson Of Klickitat county,
Wash, is member Of one of the calf
clubs organized by the United States
department of agriculture and the state
college of Washington. With his pure
bred Jersey heifer calf, Areas Babe,
he won the state championship prize
last year: In 1917 Alfred became in
terested in the calf club work, but a
purebred calf costs money, ard he did
not have funds, to buy that requisite
for membership. To enroll in gar
den club as the first step toward en-
tering the calf club may seem unusual,
but that was what the Klickitat county
boy did, and he reached the desired
goal. The weeds In his club garden
kept him busy all summer, but he gave
It such faithful care that his vege-
tables were prize winners. He exhibit
ed a collection Of them at the state
lair and took $50 worth Of prizes.
Meanwhile he had been writing to
Jersey breeders for prices and descrip-
lions of calves. He decided on Jer-
seys because that was the breed his
father had. With $40 of his garden
prize money he bought a month-old
Jersey heifer calf in October. He kept
her in the barn all winter, but in the
spring she was turned out on the
range. When brought in in September
to be made ready for exhibition pur-
poses she was larger at eleven months
than his fathers grade calves Of fif-
teen months. At the state fair Al
fred's Jersey was awarded the state
championship prize in the boys and
girls club class and was valued at
$3.50.

ISOLATION bulls for which the 1918 rec
ords are available, 16 excelled their
dams in butter-fat product ] and Is
excelled their dams in production Of
Doth milk and butter fat.
The average yearly production Of
the dams was $500 pounds Of milk
and 219 pounds Of butter fat. The
average yearly production Of the 81
daughters was 6,523 pounds Of milk
and 263 pounds Of butter fat. In milk
production the daughters excelled
their dams by 1853 pounds or IL per
cent, and in butter-fat production by
"A pounds, or 20 per cent. These are
not as large gains as some other bull
associations have given, but are we'll
worth while.
Because of cooperative ownership
the bulls cost the farmers no more
than would have been paid for scrubs;
it costs no more to feed the daugh-
tiers than to feed the dams, and 1t
costs much less to feed the bulls be-
cause there were not so many of them.
The increased production, therefore,
was all net profit.

nMonroe Doctrine"

The famous doctrine, as announced
by President Monroe in his message to
congress in 1923, was a simple state
ment Of the attitude Of this country
toward the South American republics.
Henry Clay had made an effort to have
the independence Of these republics
recognized, and III 1892 their independ-
ence was acknowledged by congress.
President Monroe had recalled John
Quincy Adams from the court of st.
james to become his secretary Of state,
and many historians credit Adams
with the authorship OF the message, in
which the doctrine was stated as fol
lows: "As a principle, the American
continents, by the free and independ-
ent position which they have assumed
and maintained, are heneeforth not to
be considered as subjects for future
colonization by any European power"
This was undoubtedly the sentiment OF
the congress- to which the doctrine we
announced.
