Ruined Churches
to Be Restored
k-
Ancient Cathedrals, Damaged
During Mexican Revolutions,
Will Be Rehabilitated.
Unusual Fascination of Mexican
Churches Llea In Their Mixed
Architecture Treasures Taken
by Sacrilegious Vandals.
Monterey, Mex. Restoration of tho
church properties to the Catholic cler
gy by tho .Mexican government Is to
be followed by a general rehabilita
tion of many edlllces which were bad
ly dumnged during the long period of
revolutions. In many Instances mag
nificent churches were used as bar
racks by soldiers. Gold and silver or
naments, rare paintings and other
things of value were stolen by sacri
legious vandals mid probably will
never bo recovered.
One of the things that Impresses
the visitor to Mexico tnost'strongly Is
the number and beauty , of the
churches of the country, writes n
Monterey correspondent of the New
York Hun. In mining camps, Ul
lages, haciendas, at every place, In
fact, where there Is human habita
tion, a church may be found. .Some
of the older buildings erected In the
early days of Spanish control are In
niliis, hul many remain Intact and
are still In use.
It has been said that the unusual
fascination of Mexican churches lies
In their mixed architecture, the Chris
tian spire, the Moorish dome, the In
dian facades, the Saracenic coloring
and, added to this, the fact that the
workmen employed by the Spanish
iiitlsts and architects weru Indians,
who lert the impress, or their own
peculiar handiwork In these ancient
buildings.
A Remarkable Church.
One of the most beautiful and re
markable of the early Mexican
churches Is thu one In the little min
ing village of Valenclann, In the moun
tains of (Juannjiinto. This church
'was erected In 170S at a cost of more
than $1,000,000 by the count of Valen
clann, who at that time was said to
bo tho richest man In the world.
On the top of the hill on which the
village Is built stands thu big church.
Surrounding It and built Into the hill
pro apartments which were formerly
used as n convent and fortress, but
which nro now occupied as stores and
dwellings. Near by has been erected
a monument to Hie man who erected
the edlllce. 'The narrow pathway to

War Heroes Get Legacies
Left by Alsatian in 1902
Paris. An Interesting patri
otic ceremony occurred Here re
cently when the first distribution
was made of a legncy written
many years ago by n French
Alsatian, who In his will left a
grant to be distributed nmong
live soldiers who especially dis
tinguished themselves In the
great war that was to restore
Alsace-Lorraine to France.
The lunio of the Alsatian was
Metzger. He died In 100'J, but
felt so sure of the restoration of
the lost provinces that he gave
In trust to the town of St. Ger
main the five legacies, each of it
800 francs. IJuch of the five men
who received tho gift had the
Medaille Mllitalre and the Le
gion of Honor. Two of them still
are In flic arm v. mm Is nn nn.
holsterer and two are now farm- i
ers.
Ing wns finished before the rainy sea
sou lit November the fields nre green.
During the seeding of this great
tract of laud 30 drills nnd 42 har
rows, kept up with five steam ploughs,
each with a capacity of 00 acres pel
day. Employs Large Force.
To properly .manage his great agri
cultural project Vincent maintains n
large force of men and women. There
are also 000 mules and horses, and
during the harvesting season he hires
enough outside to make u totnl of
from '150 to 500 spans. Last season
'27A) men and women and 30 boys
worked for two months on this great
farm, harvesting nnd marketing the
grain.
This year's harvest, should the crop
be a normal one, will be handled by
the combined harvester threshers,
ten headers and four separators. A
new departure will be the use for the
first time of a steam propelled com
hlito with a 30-foot cut and a com
bine propelled with gnsollne tractor
which hns nn 18-foot cut. These two
machines have n combined capacity
of cutting and threshing 75 to 00
acres of ripened wheut per day.
The grcnt dllllculty with heavy
tractors in the wheat section Is with
the rolling nature of the land. Wheat
is planted on steep hills where horses
and mules can be driven but where
the heavy machinery slides nnd tips.
To care for his wheat Inst year Vin
cent used 250,000 new jute bags for
which he paid 17 cents each. This
year be has ordered a new supply of
cotton ones from Georgia.
Many Big Wheat Farms.
Another large wheat farm near here
Is that of Hen Crete, who hns seeded
to wheat 10,000 acres. John Webb has
n 0,000-aero field of wheat and there
Is another of 7,000 acres near Toledo.
In what Is known as the Ulg Rend
country there are numerous wheat
fanners who plant from 1,500 to 3,000
acres each year to grain.
An unfortunate feature of the
growing of wheat In this way Is that
tho land Is being rapidly depleted of
Its fertility. There Is need of a sys
tem of dlversillod plnntlng to save the
laud from utter barrenness. For
nearly llfteen years many of these big
farms have been growing wheat every
enr. Some wise farmers let their
farms lie fallow every other year,
thinking they get an Increased crop
enough to pay for the Idle season.
