Dear Miss Boutelle: j
Arrived in El Paso Monday eve- j
ning-. Tuesday afternoon went on!
to Jaurez, Mexico. It is the dirtiest
place I was ever in but quite a lot
of interesting things to see. The jail
is sure some swell building. Don't
see how) anyone could break'-out
of it, for it seems impregnable. We
saw the celebrated bull ring and they
told us that they only have fights
on Sundays.
They have a. public -. market and
you can get anything there you
wish. They each have a small stall
—Vegetables, fruits, meats, pottery,
blankets, all kinds of woven tilings,
and hand-made laces of all kinds.
We were shown the old-Mission of
Guadalupe. It was established in
1549 by the Aztec Indians. Was
built for a place of Worship and
also for a fortress,. the walls being
6 feet through. The ceiling is cpm-
• .posed of- large . mahogany timbers,
jelltberafaay hand-carved and very"
: ~3fMf5%&sefved. The,.different shrines
.aj^im^es;are .very beautiful. They
,s^d*:th|y'^hadt all * been donated by
g|paf|B3f ,||i£|iipiici% as * were the
*lSve}y'^St^__.^|.*'. windows: as the peo-
pie of. iauresf are very. poor.- When
they had the different ^uprisings in
Mexico this church was fired upon
and one can see -he bullet holes in
the windows; also where they had
jxatched the Walte. A bomb came
through the Toof and destroyed four
of the beams in the ceiling in the
rear so they had to be replaced, but
by pine timbers ;stained to resemble
the-others, and they are plain, not
carved. We climbed the stairway
to the belfry. It Was made of rough
logs about 14 inches thick, and were
very badly worn from the tread
of so many feet. The bell is one
of the oldest in this country. The
legend, is, if you touch it and-repeat
a wish, it will come true, so -1 took
a chance.
We also visited the Zarape looms,
where they do their weaving, and
were certainly amazed by the beautiful things they turn our.. The
weavers are' so illiterate but the
way they follow those patterns is
wonderful.
We took a trip Wednesday to the
Carlbad Caverno National Park.
Took the old Butterfield trail;
made by the pioneers who wended]
their way to Galifornia in search of.,
gold in 1849. An outstanding f ea- |
ture of the trip is-.the mighty figure j
of JD1 Capitan, the bold, abrupt j
terminus of the Gaudalupe moun- j
tains, and Signal Peak, which stands-
high above: the plains, an altitude
of 10,000 feet, the highest point in
Texas. Midway on the trip are the
famous Salt Flats, scene of salt
wars of pioneer days, are crossed
All "northern 'Mexico and -several
western 'states- drew their" .salt supplies ' from the' "deposits • before the
coming of the railroads. We arrived
at the caverns. The- elevators" take

Guides take* one*-- through - a four
mile .tour-.-of tne ,scenic.-,-rooms' The
trails-are smooth,^ wide and <try and
there j are -ho,, stairs in this part of
the Caverns.- We firstvcome to the
King's 'Palace,, thought-by many to
be the. most .beautiful chamber in
this or any other, known .cavern. It
is almost circular. in form, about
150 feet in diameter and .is ..separated from adjoining chambers" by. curtains and partitioria.1 of gleaming
onyx.; The next' is ;the Green Lake
room. It derives its name from a
small pool of clear, green water. We
pass through the King's Palace
again and, through a/ 'natural keyhole into the Queen's Chamber. This
room is particularly rioted for its
elephant ears or draperies, some
hanging straight, others draped or
folded. Some of these are so delicate and tanslucent that a light
placed behind them brings out faint
tints of pink and tea rose. In it
the HeUcite" formation is particularly interesting, the small stick-like
formations interlacing in an effect;
resembling an impenetrable thicket'.
cf thorns. , I
Next comes the Papoose Cham- \
ber, a beautiful small room with
many slender stalactites and white j
ceiling—also a gorgeous display.
Then a series of windins: terraces
and we enter the Big Room, the j
largest and most impressive of thej
many chambers. It is more than j
three-quarters of a mile long, 625'
feet wide at the widest part, and at
one place the ceiling arches.350 feet-
high. The formations are.massive;
as well as magnificent, stalactites j
vary from almost needle-like, pro- j
portions to immense chandeliers.!
jHere is found the Giant Dome, the
'world's largest stalagmite. 62 f eet j
•hip-h and 16 feet in diameter and \
1 estimated to be. 60.000Q0O years'
| old. Another great formation is the ;
(majestic Rock of Ages, 50.000.OfWj
: years old, where eaCh day the vis- -
• itors stop to hear a brief talk, followed by singing Rock of -Ages.

the Michigan*'tTnionj Ann Arbor, j
for am explanation of details of-the j
1938 Agricultural Conservation Program, arid 'changes made in the
program in accordance with provisions of the Agriculturol Act of
1938, which became a law on February 16:
The coriirhitteemen who attended
the meeting were: Fred Blumhardt,
chairman; Carl E. Mast, vice chairman; Emory Mulholland, committeeman, and Harry- M. Cole,
secretary and treasurer of the association.
State- -Chairman Maurice A.

mcluded.mthe^C(|a_mereial corn-producing area,^anci that., if corn marketing quotas-. are ■ put into effect

^ Changes in ?the ,>.J'&38!*--program,
iri line with the* n£w'Warm .Act,
include the addition, of wheat to the
list of ; soil^epiej-iigr' crops for
which; special ^acreage : allotments
are established. -The'■/-revised- program ineiudeg a .special* payment
for "wheat -acreage, as provided
eariler for corn and potatoes.
Co-operation in the 1938 program
will be-an advantage to nearly all
farmers-in the county,". Harry M.
Cole, secretary;, emphasized. They
will receive soil conservation payments that wilt help tnem improve
tieir farming \ practices arid increase- the .fertility of their farms.
The 1938 program provides for
the. establishment of a soil-building
goal for each farm and soil-building
practices which may be used in
achieving this goal. One of the
proposed practices is new seedings
of perennial legumes.
New. seeding^ cf red clover or alfalfa or mixtures containing. these
seeds will be counted in achieving
any soil building- goal established
for~a_ -farm* jfif^nneetiori with the
proposed.;--1938—program; only if

In 1843, when the Indians were
returning from their annual trip to
Maiden where they received their
tribute from the government, they
camped! near Bridgewater on a
farm which later belonged to Zerah
Jenkins. Maddened by drink, purchased at Maiden, they began
a barbarous festival. That evening John T. Calhoun, Jacob j
Piatt, Harvey Gilbert and George :
Calhoun walked down - to vis-;

would be interesting to watch. , A j

Paint LAMBARTH BROTHERS Successors to Muir Hardware Dear Miss Boutelle: j Arrived in El Paso Monday eve- j ning-. Tuesday afternoon went on! to Jaurez, Mexico. It is the dirtiest place I was ever in but quite a lot of interesting things to see. The jail is sure some swell building. Don't see how) anyone could break'-out of it, for it seems impregnable. We saw the celebrated bull ring and they told us that they only have fights on Sundays. They have a. public -. market and you can get anything there you wish. They each have a small stall —Vegetables, fruits, meats, pottery, blankets, all kinds of woven tilings, and hand-made laces of all kinds. We were shown the old-Mission of Guadalupe. It was established in 1549 by the Aztec Indians. Was built for a place of Worship and also for a fortress,. the walls being 6 feet through. The ceiling is cpm- • .posed of- large . mahogany timbers, jelltberafaay hand-carved and very" : ~3fMf5%&sefved. The,.different shrines .aj^im^es;are .very beautiful. They ,s^d*:th y'^hadt all * been donated by g paf B3f , i£ iipiici% as * were the *lSve}y'^St^__.^ .*'. windows: as the peo- pie of. iauresf are very. poor.- When they had the different ^uprisings in Mexico this church was fired upon and one can see -he bullet holes in the windows; also where they had jxatched the Walte. A bomb came through the Toof and destroyed four of the beams in the ceiling in the rear so they had to be replaced, but by pine timbers ;stained to resemble the-others, and they are plain, not carved. We climbed the stairway to the belfry. It Was made of rough logs about 14 inches thick, and were very badly worn from the tread of so many feet. The bell is one of the oldest in this country. The legend, is, if you touch it and-repeat a wish, it will come true, so -1 took a chance. We also visited the Zarape looms, where they do their weaving, and were certainly amazed by the beautiful things they turn our.. The weavers are' so illiterate but the way they follow those patterns is wonderful. We took a trip Wednesday to the Carlbad Caverno National Park. Took the old Butterfield trail; made by the pioneers who wended] their way to Galifornia in search of., gold in 1849. An outstanding f ea- ture of the trip is-.the mighty figure j of JD1 Capitan, the bold, abrupt j terminus of the Gaudalupe moun- j tains, and Signal Peak, which stands- high above: the plains, an altitude of 10,000 feet, the highest point in Texas. Midway on the trip are the famous Salt Flats, scene of salt wars of pioneer days, are crossed All "northern 'Mexico and -several western 'states- drew their" .salt supplies ' from the' "deposits • before the coming of the railroads. We arrived at the caverns.
