CARPENTERS YOUNG

Georges Carpenter, the famous
French tr,dH r athlete: with his ;5-year-old
manager; Jack Curlcy. Jules Lencaur.
Willie Lewis and his trainer arrived
yesterday about noon over the pennsyl-
rania railroad in a private car for his
first public exhibition since his arrival
in America on his tour contract. The
car was the same in which the king and
queen Of Belgium made their tour Of

His WIFE, who has pretty round

Especial Correspondence TO The journal,
Las Vegas, Nov. 2S.-Ful,y
5000 acres of winter wheat will be
sown in San Miguel county this
fall. according to County Agent l..
r. Jones. This years crop
has averaged from fifteen to
dry farms, and it did about the
same last year. 1t was not until
two years ago that wheat of any
variety was raised in quantities in
this county, and the success of
winter wheat has made it possible
for this county to become a pro-
Queer of more wheat than is ac-
tually used. Turkey Red and khar-
koff are varieties used, but the
county agent has procured 5000
pounds of the famous Kanred,
which he has distributed to TWEEN
ty farmers for fall sowing in order
to give 1t a good test in this local
ity. Winter wheat sown as late as
January made good crop this
year.
