May Make Cider and Fruit Juices.

Misunderstanding cider and fruit
Juices may be manufactured by anv
person without the necessity Of obtain
ing permit or giving bond, provided
they are used exclusively in the home.
When so used, the phrase "non-intoxi-
eating" is held to mean non-intoXi-
eating in fact and not necessarily less
than one-half of one percent of al
cohol. This is the substance of a
ruling of the Federal Prohibition Com
missioner made public in Parkersburg
by Federal Prohibition Director
Charles Lively
Cider or other fruit juices may be
sold so long as they contain less than
one-half of one percent OF alcohol. but
the purchaser cannot use or possess the
same after they contain more than one
half OF one per cent Of alcohol
Cider NAV be allowed to turn 10
vinegar, which NAV be used bv the
owner in his home or sold to any per
son who NAV desire TO purchase II
However. the owner must not under
any circumstances add sugar or other
fermentable substances for the pur-
pose OF increasing the alcoholic con-
tent, as this practice is held to consti-
tute the production of mash fiji for
diStillation.

UNIVERSITY COLLECTS
NEW MEXICO HISTORY

Miss Wilma l.. Shelton. librarian
of the university. announces that
an effort is being made to get to-
gether complete collection Of
New Mexican history -consistinS
of books. papers, magazines, re-
ports, pictures, etc, on the history
and description, resources and in
dustries. biographies and works OF
New Mexico authors. artists, must
clans, pioneers and early settlers.
"Since New Mexico is one of our
American wonderlands. such a
collection would not only preserve
the records and instruct our PEG
pie and the newcomers in our his
tory but would also lead to a
greater appreciation of a land so
aptly called The Land of the De
light Makers. Miss shelton says.
1--WE already have a good nucleus.
which hope to enlarge gradually
until we have obtained everything
available. With this object in
view we hope to receive as gifts
anything which pertains to New
Mexico"

how can you or | here in New
Mexico. knowing nothing of inter-
national entanglements, pass our
judgment without further investi-
cation. The constitution of the

might have changed the convic-

SIERRA COUNTY
DEMOS AVOID A
SPLIT IN PARTY
A Strong County Ticket Is
Named and Near Breach
Caused by County Seat
Fight Avoided by Leaders

SPECIAL oisPNrcH TO ccEslNs -eusNALl
Hillshoro, n, NJ, oct. S.-The
democratic convention for the
nominating of candidates for coun-
ty offices was held here yesterday
with the largest DELEGATION attend
ance in many years. Keen interest
was due largely to the rivalry en-
listing between Hot Springs and
Hillsboro in a contest for the coun-
ty seat, now at HillsborO.
The rival towns had secured
delega tons with the intention of
controlling the convention, and
each entered the convention pre-
pared, if they could. to name the
ticket.
On the first ballot Hot Springs
won a decided victory in the cleo
ton of DR. White as temporary
chairman. The chairman named
the various committees and re-
cessed the meeting. 1t looked like
a factional fight when the conven-
ton convened, hut while the per-
manent organization was being
perfected, leaders of the warning
elements were reaching an agree
ment whereby differences might be
settled by compromising on nam
ing a ticket of the best candidates
available we'll distributed over the
county. Most of the candidates
were elected by reclamation and
the following ticket was named,
Representative, Arch Latham,
Lake Valley; sheriff, Neil sullivan,
Hillsboro; clerk. Ernest Gilbert,
Hillsboro; treasurer. Jacob Chavez,
Monticello; assessor, Earl j. Will
son, Lake Valley school superin-
tendent, Mrs. Oliver Dawson, Ar
rey; surveyor, Fred Hlltcher,

First district, w. c. Kendall, Hot
Springs: second district, George
