ONE WAY TO WEALTH

A STATISTICAL table from the census bureau. complicated and
"a extremely dry, reveals a way to increased wealth for the owners
number Of pure-bred livestock on these farms improving the grade
OF cattle, sheep, and swine.
This census table, shows. 20 begin with, that out of New Mexico
29S44 reporting farms only 2,33i report any pure-bred stock.
This state reports 1S26S6 horses on its farms, Of which POI are
ure-bred, or onetenth of one per cent.
We report l,3O03S5 cattle of which 1927, or Ia per cent are
purc-bred-
The total sheep reported for the state is 1.64O475. of which TO-
as are pnrebred, or six.fcnths OF one per cent.
Of swine the state reports s1ys06 head, of which 3,245, or 81
per cent, are pure-bred.
Ii is now generally agreed that the cost of maintaining a pure
bred animal is no greater than for a scrub. The reward is much
greater.
1t is probable that the number of purebred cattle in New Mexico
is understated by a considerable amount The showing Us to sheep
IL probably accurate. We do not know enough about the swine TO
judge OF the accuracy Of the figures and percentage. II is certain,
however, that more hogs should be feeding on New Mexico farms
and that the increase in pure-bred stock on both farms and ranges
means certain increase in profits.
II is true that pure bred breeding animals cost money and that
New Mexico farmers and ranchmen are far from being flush at the
present time.
very attentively TO the statement of a farmer or livestock grower who
has a carefully worked out plan for improving his stock. A number
of bankers whose institutions n carrying extensive lines of farmer
loans are buying breeding stock for distribution among their farmer
clients, not as a matter of philanthropy, but a a practical means for
helping those clients 10 pay out, pay up, and emerge from the Dor
rowing into the deposting class Of customers.
There are phases of the question Of purebred stGSk on New Mex
leo ranges, of course, which the census figures do not take into consid-
Grafton. This is especially true of sheep. The purebred sheep that
thrives on an Ohio meadow pasture would have short shrift as a
rustler on the New Mexico range. New Mexico sheep growers need
no instruction as TO this phase of the question. They know the
kind of breeding animals that will prove most profitable, and they
understand, generally, the importance of better breeding in the re-
turn in heavier clips and heavier lambs. They need encouragement
and help in the improvement.
One Of the healthiest signs in New Mexico is the appearance of
an increasing number of organizations whose purpose is to encourage
better breeding stock, both on farms and ranges. That this movement
has appeared and advanced TO considerable strength in the MOST
difficult year livestock growers and farmers have ever known is not
The least encouraging phase of the situation.

The Hope of the
World


Possibly the only argumon that
could be made against the American
public school systcm-or any other
system that deals with mass cduca-
tion-is that while some bright stud
cnts are forced 10 loiter with others
who cannot Keep up the c.uss work.
still oihers are pressed forward more
rapidly into work that they cannot
assimilute. To endenvor to solve this
problem recently the New York public
school authorities applied the army
tests TO the approximately 900 .0uO
school entrants. The principal aim
OF The tests was to devise q better
classification OF pupils, according 60
the Associated Press. The theory
waa advanced that BY keeping the
brighter pupils together they would
be able 90 progrcsH more rapidly.
while the average pupils also would
be able to make mort rapid progress.

SOPHS WIN CLOSE
 GAME FROM PROPS
By BILL LADD

The Profs of Birmingham-South were handedsa baseball defeat at the hands of the aN-wise Sophs in the first match encounter on Munger field this season by the score of to 5.
 The former stars of the diamond in the persons of the instructors of learn ing threw a scare into the ranks of the Sophomores toward the latter in nings of the game, when they gradual ly cut down the five-ruh lead secured in the first frame.
 The Profs started off strong. After Baty and Moore were out Reynolds drew a base on balls and circled the bases when Rob Rowe clouted three base drive to the left field bank. The Sophs came back strong, and drove in five runs off Professor Hawkins. who was late getting his slow w|ball work ing on the mound. In this five-run af- fair was sanwiched a home run drive by Ava Baker.
 Griffin. Baker and Green put up the best game for the Soph class. Griffin hit well in the pinches and twirled good ball couple of innings. The Sophs used several moundsmen. while Hawkins went the whole route for the teachers.
 Bob Rowe and George Reynolds Of the high school faculty put up the best game for the Profs. Reynolds scored three of the faculty's five runs while Rowe drove him around the bases on practically every occasion.

Greenvil1e Quintet Is
 Praised By B. A. C. Officials

Greenville. March 1S.-(Special.)- Prof. c. B. Gamble, principal of the Greenville High school, received let ter from the officials of the Birming- ham Athletic club that was very com- plimentary to Coach McGowin and his basketball team of the Greenville High school that played in the tournament held under the direction of the club in that city during the last, part of Feb- ruary.
 The letter stated that the Green- vile men played nothing but sports manlike ball, and no doubt would have been victorious in winning the cham pionship had not the team been badly crippled. The letter also stated that Vernon Stabler, Greenvilles center, was the best individual player of the tournament.
 It will be remembered that Green vile defeated the fast Ensley and Sid- ney Lanier teams and was the eigh- teenth of the 23 teams to leave the floor.
