out such program but to the casual observer they
are not apparent. Why should New Mexico continue
to send her cattle sheep and hogs out OF the state to
be slaughtered, paying freight them to the point
Of delivery, and then pay return freight on the fin
ished product, together with the added expense OF
the several middlemen.
This does not apply to livestock alone, but to
other products we'll For instance. the owy pinto
bean which grows prolificay in many parts of the
state, and particularly in the Estancia valley, is
shipped east, put up in cans under high sounding
and reshipped to New Mexico Certainly, ar
rangements could be made to do this canning right
here in the state and New Mexico could supply the
east with the canned product instead OF the east
supplying us.
Some slight progress has been made In solving
the canning problem, notably at Roswell, Artesia
Lakewood Deming and Portales. Roswell is
ming tomatoes and the products of its orchards Ar
tesla and Lakewood canning tomatoes. Deming
cans tomatoes and other products and Portales has
won for herself niche in the hall of fame by her
canned sweet potatoes. These cannerles, operated
on small scale, said to have been highly sue
cessful and taking OF the produce raised in
their respective localities other communities could
without doubt do equally as well.

selves by finishing our own meats and canning our
products Of the field and garden during the summer

THE COST OF A LOAF OF BREAD.

loaf of bread has engaged the attention OF
the joint commission agricultural inquiry to
the extent of report the various factors in It's
cost from its potential existence wheat to It's
final delivery on the consumers table. For every
dollar the householder pays for bread 29.6 cents
goes TO the farmer, S4 cents Is required to get
the wheat ready for baking and 1915 cents is
consumed in manufacture. Fifty cents, one
half. is absorbed in the expense of distribution.
Thus with bread, with most other neces
sares of life the mddleman gets the hens share
of the proceeds the producer being forced to
tent himself with the leavings. The discovery is
not novel one but 1t continues to surprise most
people. When the conditions to be
generally understood they will perhaps be
cepted as showing that the unacceptable and fun
damental cause of the high cost of living is he
disproportionate cost OF distribution That is
about the only logic OF price for bread which is
more than three times The price OF the raw ma
terial from which it is manufactured.-New York

"LEr THE PEOPLE THINK"

An editorial in recent issue of The Mani
facturer, under the above caption. checks the ia
burden, or large part OF it, which the people al
carrying, right up to the voters themselves Th
editorial follows:
"As the people complain about growing tax
burdens they are slowly coming to realization
of the fact that the load they carrying is
largely a result of their own acts.
THAT is. they have been willing to adopt
without counting the cost in advance, every new
tangled idea proposed relative to city, county or
state government or system Of public educa-
tion.
1.-The public has right to demand that can
didates for public office be qualified for the po-
stions they are to fill and they have a right to
demand business administration of public af-
fairs.
.It Is unfair, however, to elect man to Of
flee on an economy and business platform and
in the same election vote for the passage OF vari-
Gus measures which add millions to the tax bur
den of the state II the people do this they have
hut themselves to blame when the tax collector
comes around
"As the family keeps within its income pros
pers and produces good citizens as result Oh
the example set by the father and mother In the
daily life OF the family, so will the state grow
and develop and keep its tax requirements rea-
sonable in proportion to the thought and inteli-
gence manifested by the members OF this great
collective family, namely its citizens.
"Pubic officials are merely the hlreo en-
Moves of the people. The average employe VIII

ample set him by his employers
go to the poles and vote as carefully on
nuhlc affairs as you would on matters affect
ing your own family life. Do not vote TO e3-
mend public funds and then kick at paying the
tax bill Such a course is as foolish as to con-
tract family bills and complain at the collector
for insisting payment.
"Here is the first step the people must take
In any program Of economy and business man
agement in public expenditures"
In view of the approaching election in New Mex
leo as well as in other states there is much food for
thought in the foregoing. If you "Go TO THE
POLLS AND VOTE AS CAREFULLY ON PUBLIC
!, ,FFAIRS AS YOU WOULD ON MATTERS AF'
rECTING YOUR OWN FAMILY LIFE most of the
lis of which we now suffer would be cured. Nc
