CURRY COUNTY GETS
GOOD GENERAL RAIN

A general rain fell all over Curry
County last Friday and Saturday.
The fall in Clovis amounted to only
about a half inch but the fact that
the rain came slowly and was follow
ed by day or two of cloudy weather
made it equivalent in benefit to a
much greater rainfall under ordinary
conditions. Many portions of the
county had already had local rains
and these sections are in pretty good
shape now rs far as moisture is con-
cerncd. The rain has started the
wheat to growing in fine shape and
the farmers are busy putting in their
row crops. Now that this entire Sec
tion has Itnceived a good general
rain there is little doubt but that
plenty of moisture will come from
now on.

LUXURY BUYING SHOWS NO
SIGNS OF DECREASING

Luxury buying is now going on
in New York at the rate Of 81, 200
100000 year judged by the amount
Of luxury taxes-aggregating $10,-
100000 a month-which are being
collected by William H. Edwards,
United States collector Of internal
revenue for Manhattan. In February
according to the collector, the gov
ernment received from his office $2,-
100000 more for luxury taxes than
was paid in any previous month in
the history of the department. The
month of April probably will exceed
them all. The receipts he says, have

PEOPLE SHOULD BUY
COAL THIS SUMMER

Last winters experience should inn
press 1t on Curry County people that
il will be necessary to lay in a
winters supply Of coal this summer.
The man who tries to fool himself
into believing that coal will be plenti-
full next winter certainly has not
much foresight. The News makes
the prediction that if people in this
county do not buy their coal early
this year that there will be some
real suffering on account of the
shortage Of fuel next winter.

bassadOr to Italy, will make the adj
dress to the graduates at the Della
ware. College Commencement exer-
cises next June. This announcement

of this event, there will be published
history of Delaware College for the
past half century, written by DR.. Ed

epoch in the annals of the Newark in
stitution.
A quinquennial catalog Of gradu-
ates, prepared by Dean E. Lawrence
Smith, will be published, so that
every alumnus can have copy at
commencement. This list will show
how the alumni have climbed into pO-
sitions of responsibility and power in
this and in other countries. 1t is the
purpose of the college to repeat this
publication every five years. The last
one included the class of 1915. The
series will be a biographical history
in outline of the institution.
Everything points now TO a MEM
orable commencement June 1914. The
weekend commencement enables
alumni at distant points to be present
