Shown by Statistics

Las Cruces, n. NJ, Dec. Or
ganized Farming, official journal
Of the Dona Ana county farm bu-
reau, will say in its December issue
that the yearly report Of the Me-
silla Valley Cow Testing Associa-
iion shows 442 cows and heifers
completing the l2-months' test
with these averages:

herd of 3S grade Holstein cows,
managed by II. c. Holmes, COM
pleted the year with an average Of
10,4G7.9 pounds of milk containing
406.46 pounds of butter fat, The
average food cost was $9S.24, and
The average profit above feed was
S1S9.69.

tat. The average FEED cost was

age during the winter months, but
a rather poor grade OF alfalfa hay.
The concentrates consisted prin-
cipally of corn on the cob ground
with the huslt on, with small
amounts Of bran and some cotton
seed meal. During the summer
they received no pasture and only
alfalfa hay as roughage with grain
of varying kinds. Monthly milk
records were kept, as were also
breeding and calving dates.
The low herd received silage and
no hay ana little grain during the
winter months. During the sum-
mer the cattle received nothing
but pasture. The low herd showed
well in profit returns, partly be-
cause some Of the milk was sold
at retail and partly because Of the
low charge placed on the pasture.
No milk records were kept by the

tax returns and tax contests in the
treasury headed by a former White
House usher who was made chief
of the income division without pres

now exceeds that of the president"
On the resignation of this official

TECHN|CAL|TY
May AFFECT A
SEAT IN HOUSE
Construction of Constitution
May Determine Repre-
sentative From Thirtieth
District

Santa Fe, Dec. 7,--The state
canvassing board, consisting of the
governor, chief justice and secre-
tary Of state, Is issuing certificates
Of election to the successful con-
gressional and state candidates this
week in conformity with final
computations of the total official
returns from all counties as made
Edith Wileman, The official re-
turns from Guadalupe county, the
| last to report, were not received
at the secretary's office until Mon
day afternoon.
All of the certificates for state
senators and representatives will
probably not be issued until next
week as there i9 q contention as
| to whether or not Catron county
voters could be deprived of their
constitutional right to vote in the
Thirtieth legislative district by the
failure of the legislature to specif-
| lically include them in that district
when Catron county was created.
The Thirtieth district, under the
constitution, comprises Otero. Lin
coin, Socorro and Catron counties,
! (the latter being a part of Socorro
at the time of the adoption of the
constitution). Under the Catron
county act that county is not men,
toned as part of the Thirtieth
district. In case the wording of
that act is followed. the voters of
that county will be disfranchised
to the extent of being deprived of
their right to vote for one of the
representative assigned them by
the constitution, In case Catron
tcounty, in which w. J. Jones re-
ceived 7G4 majority. is included
In the count, he is elected IR Cat
Iron county is excluded. Benjamin
Sanchez will be the beneficiary
Faircloth's Seat Contested
In Guadalupe county the official
returns give Frank Faircloth, re-
publican, plurality OF one. and
the certificate of election is pre-
sumed to have been issued TO him
by the county canvassing board.
Since the official tabulation of that
county has reached Santa Fe,
prominent democrats claim TO have
discovered that an error was made
in the certificate of one of the
precincts, and that John Hicks,
democrat, was elected by a plural
ity of one.

AME RIGA STANDS
AGAINST MOVING
GREEK CITIZENS
Opposes in Near East Con-
ference the Proposal of
Turkey to Make Aliens
Leave ConStantin0pIe

Lausanne, Dec, Z (by the Asso-
ciated Press) True to its tradi-
tional humanitarian policy, the
United States government took a
strong position at the Near Eas-
tern peace conference today in pro-
testing against expulsion Of the
Greek population from Constanti-
nople. Apprehensions that the
Turks would insist on deporting all
the Greeks from their sacred city
proved to be well founded when
at a meeting today of the sub-com-
mission on the exchange of popu'
lations, a Turkish representative
announced that departure of all
the Greeks was a feature of their
program concerning the ADJUST
ment Of populations.
The American representative
then read the following statement:
"The American delegation is NOT
in accord with the proposals Tor
new compulsory movements or
populations unless it is clearly
shown that good purposes will be
served. as might be the case in the
exchange of prisoners, or OF popu-
lations where exchange is neces-
sarv to serve humanitarian ends.
without discrimination be-
tween the parties to the negotia-
tion for exchange, the American
delegation is unable to approve the
movement from Constantinople OF
the Greek population Of that city,
under conditions when
WIN send an urban people, used to
artisanship and commerce, to a
rural district.

in pursuance Of our legitimate hu-
manitarian interests, our protest at
any such dislodgment OF human
beings"

Farmer Browns Boy was whistling
now. Somehow that whistle cheered
Peter a little. Often he had heard
Farmer Browns Boy whistle and he
had noticed that 1t was usually when
Farmer Browns Boy was doing some
kindly deed. Anyway it was always
when Farmer Browns Boy was happy.
and somehow he couldn't believe that
Farmer Browns Boy could be happy
il he was planning to do him any
harm.
How Peter did long to peep out
and see where they were going, But
there wasn't a chance. 1t seemed to
him that journey never would end.
He wanted it to end. and yet he didn't
want it to end. You see he hadn't the
least idea what would happen when
IL did end. But the only thing he
could do was to cling hard to faith.
1T Is going to be all right. 1t is
going to be all right" Peter kept
saying over and over to himself.
Farmer Browns Boy is a friend.
know he is friend even il he has
kept me prisoner He is a friend
of all the little people of the Green
Forest and the Green Meadows. He
won't let any real harm come to me.

Farmer Browns Boy did his best to

went. Peter heard Bowser the
Hound barking and it sounded very.
very far away. That was because
inside that basket Peter couldn't
hear as we'll as he could have had
he had his head outside.
TT must be that he Is taking me

Peter mournfully. 'T wonder II / will
ever be able to find my way back"
Once Farmer Browns Boy let the

this was the end Of the journey ana
he dreaded to have that basket open

1t is hard to hold fast to faith

so with Peter Rabbit. One never-to-
be-forgotten afternoon just before
shadowtime Farmer Browns Boy
came to the pen where Peter w1s
, prisoner. and fed him some dainties
OF which he was very fond. Then
without warning he picked Peter up
and put him in a covered basket.
Peter was frightened. OF course.
ne didn't know what a basket was.
There was just room enough for him
in il and that was all With the
cover down. of course, he could see
not hing. He felt himself lifted and
that gave him queer feeling. He
heard the gate of the henyard slam
ano then he knew that he was being
carried somewhere
All sorts of dreadful thoughts
crept into Peters head. What was
going to happen to him now? Reddy
Fox. who had visited Peter nearly
every night to try to tease him. had
hinted that Farmer Browns Boy was
getting him fat SO that he. would
make Il better dinner for him. Could
it be that now Farmer Browns Boy

Peter 'shivered at the thought. Per-
