Seeing the cattle in>such good con
dition, asked the man at this place
if. She cattle were given extra feed,
but he assured me they got nothing
but the picking from off the range. He
also told this well furnished water for
four thousand head of cattle and three
other similar wells on the range fur
nished water for twenty thousand cat
tie, all belonging to this outfit and all
of them Herefords. According to a
newspaper statement New Mexico has
one million cattle and five million head
of sheep.
Travelling further on we passed near
the base of a mountain of volcanic or
igin. The rock and other material
had the appearance of having passed
through intense heat. In circling the
steep sides of the cone-shaped peaks
reminded me of winding stairway.
Upon reaching the dam, the unac-
customed observer is amazed at the
grandeur and immensely of the struc-
| ture. There is a concrete driveway on
top of the dam sixteen feet wide and
1885 feet long, with concrete sides or
raised walls five feet in heighth. These
walls are further surmounted by tow
ers, built also of concrete, in which
are installed electric searchlights and
the dam itself is Illuminated by num-
orous electric lights, presenting a
great whiteway, the power being de-
rived from motors at the dam The
floor of the driveway is 441S feet
above sea level.
The water in this dam is backed up
AS miles in the channel of the Rio
Grande. The depth of the water at
the dam is 1872 feet, while the average
depth of water contained within The
structur is &c feet. The dam was COM
pleted in 1916 and cost the Govern
ment five millions of dollars. From
the lowest point of excavation at the
damsite to the top of the structure
the measurement is 500 feet.
The water is discharged from the
dam to the bed of the river and carried
thence to the various permanent con-
crete diversion dams.
Fourteen miles Of railroad was built
to convey material from the Santa Fe
railroad to the dam, but this has been
now taken up and the bed occupied by
the railroad is now used for a public
road. The name of the mountain is
Butte, and an immense rock of MANY
hundreds of tons in the dam, the shape
of an elephant, hence the name, Ele-
plant Butte Dam.

THE EFFICIENCY EXPERT.
Produce" is the imperious demand

of the materials needed in these new

has come an individual known as the
efficiency expert. Going over the vari-
Gus processes in a factory with the
men who perform them one is found
who can work machine to better ad-
vantage than another; a second will

the principle God has always used of
placing individuals in positions where
| they can exercise the power that is
theirs. "To one is given through the
Spirit the word of wisdom; and to
another the word of knowledge" 1t is
| precisely this that Jesus is teaching
in the shadow of Olivet's trees as He
spoke to the recumbent forms about
Him. 1t follows Immediately upon
the story of the Virgins who were
watching for the coming of their
Lord and emphasizes the fact that

those who occupy the world as disci-

be temporarily absent, and yet his
business must be cared for in the in

and picked them not for their ability
to use, but as Bishop Bashford points
out, for their ability to receive. For
| the one-talent person could not use
the store, though he received it. The
one who entered into the feelings and
plans and purposes of the Master had
the largest opportunity of interpret

The next had all that was possible for
him since it was the measure of his
self-giving to his Masters passion.
The third had less because he could re-

will accept God gives Himself and His

Joe Collier wrested Alaska's heavy weight crown from the someNhat damaged brow of Leo Higley after six rounds of hard fighting, and Pat Hollywood, after taking the worst of four rounds in his fight with Jack Johanson, dropped his man for the count in fifth round al the Elks' smoker last Saturday night The fights were the main event and semi-windup of we'll balanced card of six bouths, which pleased a large crowd.
 Collier had improved much since he met Higley the first time ana solved the ex-champion's defense b. using straight left to mark be tween the gloves that kept Higley bleeding freely. The best blow that Higley had also was a straight left His swing was poorly timed and missing repeatedly.
 Of the first two rounds Collier had shade. In the third Higley slipped and fell partly out of the ring, Collier hitting him when ht was down. One of Higley's second. rushed into the ring to aid his man so the fouls were fifty-fifty.
 In the fourth honors were about even, Collier using short jabs and Higley straight lefts and swinging uppercuts. In the fifth it looked like win for Higley, as after a series of straight lefts he managed to get home a couple of his hay makers that had Collier really in distress. He couid not put over the sleep producer. Collier came put of his corner at the beginning of the final stanza much fresher than his opponent and won the de. cision although he could not slip in heavy blow on his badly-winded opponent.
 WhirIwnd Bout.
 The finish of the Johanson-Holly- wood bout was a surprise. Johan- son had the better of the first four rounds and seemingly had his man in distress several times. Hollywood was dangerous at all times, how ever. and would come out of a clinch in which he had been badly punished with heavy blows to Jo- hanson's stomach. It was after a furious mix up early in the fifth round that Hollywood caught his man with terrible left in the solar plexas and knocked him cold.
 This bout was the star one of the evening, the. two welterweights mixing from the tap of the gong.

Adams replacing him as judge Dolly" also read telegram from Bill" Raines of the Douglas base ball team challenging the Junear team to a game "any old time"
 The hall was comfortably filled when Cashen and Ellenger, the cur tain raisers, started whanging away at each other. Ellenger with about fifteen pounds the best of it ir weight had the best of all four rounds, although Cashen swapped punches with him at times.
 Makes sammie Sick.
 Jurich, Douglas southpaw, fiddled around a while with Sammie Jack son and then busted him one on the nose that started the claret. Sam mic was worried from then on and when Jurich started calling repeat edly on his commissary department and finally whanged him one square ly on the bread basket, Sammie went to sleep with terrible dreams. This happened in the second round. Ju rich is q conner and it will take a good man to beat him.
