SAVING TO LIVE

Good business judgment re- quires that we exercise every effort that we possess to save what is produced. To produce products and permit them to go to waste is an economic loss that has caused our country millions of dollars in the past. In some instance this loss could not be averted as lack of transportation, strikes, demor- alized markets, lack of labor and other things. over which the farmer had no control, were to blame. But it is a fact, nevertheless, that on some farms there are edible products and produce that could be fed to animals if saved in the prop CT manner, that have never been of any benefit to the pro- dueer. Without trying to pro- duce more, let us be careful with what we do produce and waste as little labor and sacri- flee as little time we will be required to take care of the products we harvest.-Farm and Ranch.

The Hagerman Irrigation Company
OF Hagerman has filed notice with
the state engineer of intention to
make formal application for permit
to Appropriate four to ten cubic feet
per second OF water flowing into
its canal from the East Grand Plains
drainage system. The point of en-
try of this flow is near the center
of section twenty-five in township

used on about 10000 acres OF land
III townships IS and IA south range

Hagerman canal. 1t appears that
this canal is the outlet for the ma

East Grand Plains drains. The
water has been used since the COM
pletion Of the drainage system and
the natural drainage waters for about
twelve years prior. The Hagerman
Irrigation Company was organized
in 1907. the water users under its
canals being the members. The ir-
rigation systemi was purchased from

ARTESlA is FINALLY
RECEIVING HER COAL

Artesia is receiving some of the
cars of coal that Mayor Z. B. Bull
ock has complained about being un-
necessarily delayed. He wired the
commission to hurry his coal ship
ments on the 9TH without giving any
information as TO where the coal
was coming from. Because the coal
did not arrive at once thereafter, he
writes the corporation commission
quite pointedly. The commission took
the matter up with the general su-
perintendent OF the southern distric;
at Amarillo who informed the com
mission that two cars were delivered
on the 18Th and that a third car was
headed in'o the valley. II appears
upon investigation that the coal was
ordered from Mutual Colo. on the

ISAAC BARTH DISBARRED
BY THE SUPREME COURT

The Supreme Court has found

manently disbarred. The findings OF

to him an interest in such legacy.
under an agreement on his part 10
account for the same as soon as II
is collected, and thereafter collects
such interest so assigned. and ap-
propriates the same to his own use
and fails and refuses to account for
the same, such attorney is guilty Of
unprofess;onal conduct which re
quires his disbarment.
2-Where an attorney Al law col
lects money for his client ard de
ceives such client as to the fact OF
having collected the same, and ap-
propriates the same to his own use.
he is guilty Of unprofessional CON
duct which requires his disbarment.
No circumstances in which an at

him in falsely stating that such funds
are not in his hands.

GET MOTOR LICENSE
AND SAVE PENALTY

The secretary of states office will
place a penalty of Is per cent upon
motor car licenses for which appli-
cation has not been received 80 days
after January l. The new license
law requires the penalty. The old
tw placed no penalty upon delin-
quents, and Secretary of State Man
uel Martinez, believing that motor
car owners generally we're not cog
infant of this feature of the new law,
called attention TO the penalty clause
today.
The penalty, of course, applies only
TO those who have been using their
automobiles and cannot show that
they made application for licenses at
the end of thirty days from Janu
airy !. The secretary of state said
that receipt had been mailed to ap-
plicants as quickly as possible after
the receipt of their application, SO
they would be protected against ar
rest.
The office has been flooded with
applications and Mr.. Martinez esti-
mated that there were 1000 on hand
for which licenses had not been is
sued. As soon as they reach the
office, however, receipts are sent ont
and then the examination of the ap-
plications for inaccuracies is begun.
II they are found to be correct the
licenses are sent. About 1000 appli
cations have been returned to the
senders so far on account OF in
accuracies. Some of the applicants
did not send enough money.
More than 1000 plates have been
sent out

OIL EXPLO-

according 10 announcement by Frank

In santa re the hrsi part OF the week
He has closed leases for about one
million acres, which includes the
Gaia del Rio ranch OF 5000 acres
leased from Lieut.. Governor b. r..
Psnkey.
Other deals are pending for the
leasing ot more lands and MIR. Thomp-
son presumed that at The end OF 80
days the company would have more
than two million acreS-for prospect
ing.
The company's holdings already
reach INTO virtually every county,
including San Juan, Mckinley. Vaien
cia, Bernalillo. Dons Ana. Luna, Otero.
Lincoln, Socorro. Santa Fe, San Nj
guel. Colfax, Mora, Union, Quay,
Curry, Sandoval Roosevelt, Chaves,
Eddy, and Lea, and the leases range
from 700 acres to more than 10000.
the biggest being the Gaia del Rio
west of Santa Fe.
The company's intention is TO make
an exhaustive exploration of the
state, Mr.. Thompson said, and when
it has finished drilling there will be
little doubt as to whether or not
New Mexico has any oil pools under
lying its surface. The company in
tends to drill at least ten deep test
wells within the next five months
and they are to be scattered from
one end of the state to the other.
One to be drilled on the Gaia del
Rio.
The company has been working
quitely in the state for the last five
acquiring leases. Mr.. Thomp-
son said, the company has collected
more data in regard to the oil pos
sibilties OF the state than, he be-
lieved. the Standard Oil company
had. He added that there was no
doubt in his mind that the state
would be big oil producing field.
The company had already spent
$4,000 in preliminary investigations
in the state and that one million
and one-half more would be spent
in carrying out its exploration.
Henry OConnei geologist; Colonel
4. d. Martin, assis'an' TO the preSi-
dent, and w. 6. McClintock, attor-
ney for the company, came here with
Mr.. Thompson. They will visit the

TAX EXEMPTION FOR
SOLDIERS IN 1918

The exemption from taxation al
lowed soldiers, sailors and marines
applies to taxes levied for 1919, the
attorney generals office states in an
opinion written for Fred 5. Brown
treasurer of Mora county.
The assessor and board of county
commissioners OF that county dis
allowed the exemption, evidently un-
der the view that it was not effec
tive as to the 1919 taxes, and the
treasurer wrote to the attorney gen
erals office for advice.
The attorney generals opinion is
as follows:
I'VE have your letter of the 10th
instant, requesting an opinion from
this office regarding the action to
be taken by you in connection with
the exemption of soldiers. sailors
and marines from the payment OF
taxes upon two thousand dollars
worth of property as provided for
in Chapter los. Laws 1919, the ex-
cmption having been disallowed for
the year 1919 by the assessor and
tne board OF county commissioners.
This office has repeatedly ruled
that Chapte~vl6S applies to the taxes
for the year 1919, and that those
persons who fall within its provi-
sions are entitled to the exemption
from taxation upon two thousand
dollars worth of property for that
year
probably the assessor and the
board of county commissioners were
acting under advice of the district
attorney, who may have taken the
position that the law did not apply
20 taxes levied for the year 1910,
and if they are so acting they are
not subject to criticism. The district
attorney is the adviser of all county
officials and this office does not
desire to cause any conflict by rea-
son of its different views.
"The proper procedure in the cases
mentioned in your letter would be for
the matter to be laid before the dis
trict court by proper application. ask
ing that the exemption be allowed for
this year and permit the court TO
pass upon the legality of the claim.
In that manner you will be able to
obtain a judicial ruling by which you
may be guided in your future ac-
tions."
