Whole Wheat Valuable in the Low Cost Diet
Miss Veda Strong of New Mexico State College says whole wheat is the oldest and most valuable grain, urging its use since New Mexico grows much wheat. Whole grain preserves all nutrients, unlike milled flour, and can be ground at home if needed. One pound yields two days of breakfast porridge for a family of five, with various cooking methods noted and recipes available from county agents or the Extension Service.

Kiker Rules Penalty Payment Not Legal in Roswell Case
Judge Henry A. Riker delivered an oral opinion in Roswell that New Mexico cities lack authority under state law to assess or collect penalties on delinquent paying taxes. The case, Roswell versus Ray E Levers, centers on whether Levers may deduct penalties already paid from principal owed. Roswell has levied 1 percent penalties monthly, totaling about $17,000. If Levers wins, penalties already paid may be deducted from principal, reducing required payments. Riker affirmed city authority to collect six percent interest on delinquencies and penalties, but the formal order has not yet been issued. A related Santa Fe report notes that even with full pavement payments, Santa Fe could still be $125,900 in arrears.
