secured Cooper his first big league
tryout. 1t was when Cooper was first
starting as pitcher with the Marion
(O.) team that President Harding be-
came acquainted with him. Mr.
Harding was one of the principal
hackers Of the Marion club. He de-
cided that Cooper was destined to
become a great pitcher and he urged
the Cleveland club to give him a
chance. Cooper was given a trial
with the Indians, and was being
dropped when Pittsburgh grabbed
him. He soon developed into a star
and much of the Pirates pennant
hopes are founded on him.

Irish potatoes are grown In most
home gardens, but there are just a
few points in the potato-growing game
that the home gardener is likely to
overlook which are very important.
First Of all, potatoes grow quickly, and
their food supply must be all ready
and waiting for them In the soil. Sec
ond, they are heavy feeders and want
plenty to draw upon. In other words,
the soil for Irish potatoes must not
only be rich but it must be rich in
plant food Of certain kinds. Land that

ganic matter is best. The first step
in preparing the soil will be to spade
or pillow it in to a depth Of eight or
nine inches, then break up the clods,
If there be any, and pulverize the soil
practically as deep as it is spaded or

BIG VIRTUE OF SANDY SOILS
Roots Of Plants Pass Through II Read
IIy, But II Dries Out Quickly
Clay Holds Water.

The chief virtue Of sandy soil is that
the roots Of plants can pass through 1t
readily; its chief fault is that 1t dries
out too quickly. Clay soil holds water
well, but It tends to pack and harden.
Both types Of soil need stable manure

potatoes Snould Be Cut into chunky
Pieces With at Least One Eye to
Piece.
tatoes require more potash than is
usually present in the soil. Fertilizer
manufacturers mix special brands for
potatoes, and these are generally rath-
er rich In potash. How much fertil-
izer to use will depend upon the fertil-
fly Of the soil, but as a rule eight
pounds to each 100 feet Of row will
be about right. A good way to ap-
ply the fertilizer is to make the holes
or burrows and drop the pieces of seed
potato, cover them with an inch or
two Of soil, then scatter the fertilizer
along the row so that 1t will become
well mixed with the soil in completing
the covering Of the seed. Another
method is to scatter the fertilizer in
the furrow and mix it with the soil be-
fore dropping the pieces of seed pO-
tato.

The setting of the tale is in n

lowing to say of the book which
has Just been put on sale in the
city:
The Blood of the Conquerors'
offers something new in American
regional literature. Its locale 's
the southwest, but there is nothing
in it to suggest the usual novel OF
that section--the time honored
cowboys, claim-jumpers, Mexican
stilletists, virgin and heroic school
marms, army lieutenants, and so
on. Instead Mr.. Ferguson deals
with the intrinsic and genuine

the old Spanish lords of the soil
It Is a drama full of stress and pas
sion, and its ending is inevitably

bly,. Puritanism destroys a spacious
and ancient civilization.

New Mexico without irrigation will
take wings and fly away You will
find over there an intelligent, hap

albuquerque people hardly re-
alize that this great and develop

took me but two hours and a quar-

drove from MOuntainair to Albu

people are our next door neigh
bors. Neighbors should ba ac-

This was our mission in going
over in the valley. We wanted to
know them and have them know
us. We wanted to be friends. You
know we all need friends. They
are the people we transact business
with-our enemies have nothing to
do with US.
The chief thing the visitor sees
or hears after ne gets through

icy will ship about 1000 carloads
of pinto beans this year. They call
it a short crop, too. AT some $4,000
pounds to the car, this means
some few beans, Long strings of
10 oil t,,rf
beans, are often waiting to unload
at the warehouses in Estancia,
Willard and Mountainair. Beans
means the same thing in the valley
that coil" means in Oklahoma.
The beautiful thing about the
bean crop is that i. builds up in
stead of eXhauts the soil. Every
year they are learning more, over
there about how to handle their
land. A few years more will make

Land values are going to increase
enormously in the Estancia valley.
The city of Estancia is installing

its inhabitants recommend it most
highly. We concur.
