The authority back of a market
report largely determines it's value.
Reports from the Bureau of Markets,
United States Department of Agricul-
ture. are counted Of peculiar value in
the maintenance of healthful eco.
nomic conditions in America because
they supply information that is COM
prehensive, always up-to.date and un-
biased.
What may be characterized as the
key positions in the governments
market reporting organizations are
the market stations. These are
branches of the Bureau of Markets
maintained in nearly a score of the
larger cities, and one of their chief
functions is to collect and distribute
market news relating to several or
all of the following products: Fruits
and vegetables, live stock and meats,
dairy products, hay, grain, and mill
feeds and seeds.
. Station Men Understand Selling.
Most of the branch offices are con-
nected by leased wire with Washing
ton and receive and distribute mar
ket news daily. The original data
are assembled and condensed into
reports, reviews and press articles
which are distributed according to
the needs of the market. Most of
the men In charge of this work have
had technical training and consider
able experience either in production
or marketing.
The work of these men resembles
that Of the county agent in that it is
localized, but 1t differs from it since
1t deals primarily with the selling
and not the producing phase Of agri-
culture. In other words. the market
station man begins where the county
agent. in most cases. leaves off. He
is able to analyze market problems
comprehensively because he meets
dealers, shippers. and buyers and is
In daily touch with local trade con-
ditions.
The cooperation which the mar
ket stations maintain with state mar
getting agents in q states is de-
cidedly helpful feature Of the mar
ket news service. The national serv-
ice is concerned chiefly with the
wholesale marketing of produce
shipped from one state to another.
but the state agents aer interested in
local produce, both wholesale and
retail. The national and state forces
often unite not only in securing in
formation. but in helping to solve
special marketing problems and con-
ditions. such as the more rapid move
ment of crops in seasons Of heavy
production.
The service Of the market stations
and state agencies tepds to displace
many of the private agencies whose
scope of operation is apt to be less
comprehensive, prompt, and reliable.
In addition to this general informa-
ton, which might be called routine
market news. various sections in the
Bureau of Markets render important
service by securing data regarding
special commodities. The fertilizer
sections, for example, have conduct

TRADE BALANCE
FOR OLD YEAR
FOUR BILLION
With Steadily Increasing
Trade and New Business,
u. S. Will Experience
Great Things in 1920.

Washington, d. c., Jan. L.
Secretary Alexander. of the de-
partment of commerce, summed
up the commercial outlook for
1920 in part as follows:
THE closing year witnessed a
fabulous growth of American
foreign commerce. Our trade
balance for 1919 will be ap-
proximately four billions. A
great feet Of merchant ships,
new industries, new sources of
supply and increased knowledge
Of our own resources are some of
the assets gained from our war
experience. Before the war we
were engaged for the most part
in the development of our own
business with little serious
thought of extension of our
activities into world markets and
we were too Indifferent as re-
CARDS our position of inferiority
on the high seas. Today we are
awake as never before. The
pride of antebellum days is re-
vived and we look to see our flag
at the masthead of an American
merchant ship in every import
ant seaport of the world, carry
ing American goods wherever
markets may be found.

Abandoning Fort
Bayard Is Halted

Deming, Dec. q. According
to the latest reports received here
plans for abandoning Fort Bayard
have been temporarily halted.
It was reported a few weeks ago
that all patients at the Fort were
to be transferred to the big Gov
ernment Sanitarium at Denver
hut through the efforts of Holm
y. Bursum and Senator A. B.
Tall, the deal has been tenn
pororily held up. Both Mr..
Bursum and Mr.. Fall, pointed
out to the officials in Washington
that it would be an injustice to
the soldier patients to send them
TO the rigorous Colorado climate
and a distinct blow to the state
TO have Fort Bayard abandoned
simply for political reasons.

CATTLEMEN CALL ON
WILSON FOR new
BEEF TRUST ACTION
Leading Organizations of
Western Cattle Men Visit
President Making Known
Their Wants.

Washington, Dec. 28. Mem
bers of IL western cattle grow
ers associations have appealed
to President Wilson through
former secretary McAdoo to up
set the arrangements made by
Attorney General Palmer to COM
promise the governments anti
trust proceedings against the
meat packers, John Miller, of
Fort Stockton, Texas, president
of the Panhandle Cattle associa-
tion, announced today.
The growers, Mr.. Miller said,
submitted to the presi den
through McAdoo, a series of
charges to the effect that the
compromise does not give them
any redress for their chief griev-
ance, which, they allege, is the
control of stockyard markets by
the packers to the disadvantage
of the producers. They ask
that the prosecutions be taken
out of the attorney general, and
that new suits be brought with
Francis j. Hene of San Francis
co, former attorney for the fed
eral trade commission, as a
special prosecutor.

Sad Holiday Season

Where others have enjoyed the
passing holiday season, the B. l..
Stimmel family have suffered;
where others have hailed the
present yule-tide with loved ones
returning home, one of their
loved cnes has passed to. the
world beyond the grave. With
their three boys returned from
the service. Mr.. and Mrs. Slim.
mel had made all preparations
for enjoying Christmas and the
the week to follow when a tele-
gram was received from Las
Vegas announcing the severe
illness of Mrs. Stimmel's s mother.
Acting on the advice Of the mes
sage, she left for her mothers
bedside but before she arrived
at her destination a message
came from Prescott, Washing
ton, conveying word of the dan
gerous illness of their daughter,
Mrs. Pearl Painter, of that place.
On receipt of this sad news,
Benjamin. Jr., left last Sunday
for Prescott, but owing to the fact
thar he did not arrive there until
Wednesday of the present week,
he arrived too late to see his sis
ter alive, as another wire was
received Tuesday which told of
her death at 3 o'clock a. m. of
that day. Her mothers condi-
ton improving to an extent that
justified her return home, Mrs.
Stimmel came in on No.
Wednesday morning but only Ia
have her grief intensified by the
news Of her daughters death.
Inasmuch as the trip to Prescott
will consume five days time, il
will be useless for the folks Ia
attempt the journey to attend
the funeral. The Outlook ex.
tends its sympathy to the be-
reaved family with the regret
that it is one of the many sad
cases in which words of human
sympathy are the only means OF
comfort friends can offer.

Rode Bike to Capital
Twenty Years Ago
Csanta Te New Mexican)

"A. B. Stroup, attorney. of
Albuquerque, who is in Santa
Fe today, made his first visit to
the capital Just twenty years ago
on Christmas night.
At that time Mr.. Stroup was a
teacher in Bernalliio and he rode
all the way from Albuquerque
on a bicycle to attend a meeting
of the state teachers at Santa Fe.
He reached that town tired and
hungry but he finished the trip
from Santa Fe, arriving that
night.
That Mr.. Stroup happened ia
be here on approximately the
twentieth anniversary of his first
visit was accidental. He came
here on legal business, arriving
last night, and he didn't pedal a
bicycle all the way this time, al
though he may have wished to.
