From the Navajo country, embrac-
Ing the adjoining corners of Utah,
Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico,
there has recently been struggled one
of the rarest patterns OF Indian
blankets that has been permitted to
fall into the hands of white men.
The pattern, described and Illustrated
in Popular Mechanics Magazine, Is
known as the "Yebitsai dancers" and
involves a tribal tradition about which
the Navajos are decidedly uncommuni-
cative. The word Struggled" is used
advisedly, for the blanket was re-
moved with extreme secrecy mas.
much as knowledge by the Indians Of
its removal probably would have re-
suited in unpleasantness to say the
least.
Collectors Of Indian curios, who
hays inspected the blanket assert that
thef have never seen another Of the
same pattern, although 1t has been
understood that one of similar type
was obtained some years ago and sent
to the Smithsonian institution.

FARM LAND VALUES
SHOW 10 PER CENT DROP
Earning Value of Agricultural
Property Falls TO
1914 Basis.

The value OF Virginia farm lands
mas declined 10 per cent from last
year and 10 from the record values
or 1920. according 10 the annual sur
veg OF the Bureau OF Markets and
Crop Estimates. The demand for
farm lands has not Keen very strong
during the past year. owing to the
tremendous decrease in price OF
farm products. consequently there
have been few sales. Values re-
ported are not based upon the pre-
sent earning power OF the lands.
which has been reduced Amos, to
the 1914 base. while the values have
dropped to those Of 1919.
The average value OF all farm
lands with improvements is reported
To be $50 per acre. compared with
$50 last year. and SGS in 1920. The
average value without improve
ments is $40 per acre. compared with
$40 last year and $40 in 1920.
Special inquiry relating 10 the
average farm rents shows that very
