end ofits first third of thousand years
It's terto-miilenla period. The Tertio. Mil
lcnnia Celebration and Mining and Indus
trial Exposition, which will be naugurated
there on the 2d Of July and close on the 3D.
of August, will be an event Of great hIst0-
ricn as we'll ne practical importance TO the
country Mt large II s intended TO com.
memorate the three hundred aud thirty
third anniversary of the Spanish settlement
Of the place,
THE EXPOSITION,
Which will constitute the practical part Of
fine celebration, will be an epitome OF the
mineral, agricultural, horticultural, stock
and General industrial resources and capa-
blities of the Territory. Those, therefore,
who are interested in either mining, 9gri-
culture or stock raising will have good OPP
nor,umty to visit New Mexico this season,
as the low fare will be great inducement
10 make the trip. The development OF the
mines of this vast region has hut begun,
vet in the past year the proporhonate IN
crease in the output Of ore was greater than
in any other State OF Territory. New Mex,
co's showing at the mining exposition held
ut Denver last season showed, more clearly
than anything else, the yastness OF its min
eral wealth.
II has been the general belief heretofore
that agriculture in New Mexico would not
paw. This is an unfortunate error. At the
exposition will be seen samples Of all sorts
of fruits and field products which vie with
those Of prolific Kansas, With irrigation
the soil Of the Territory can be made to
Weld immensely, and there is no pursuit
more remunerative than that OF farming
Agricultural products, of all kinds, onng
high prices upon ready market, always
accessible in the growing mining towns,
and the cost Of raising ls comparatively
small AS cattle and sheep country, too
| New Mexico cannot be surpassed. Her
valleys and mesas afford fine grazing
! grounds for countless herds. 81 the cele-
bration at Santa Fe will be the means Of
drawing a larger number OF people into the
| Territory than usual, owing TO the cheap
fare, an opportunity will be offered those
who may be interested in stock-ralsine
to investigate
THE CELEBRATION.
Besides the practical, the Terto-Milenial
will embrace many features the most novel
and romantic. For instance, three days
the 18Th. 10Th, and Goth Of july-wili be
devoted to the presentation OF historic
scenes. These will represent the PERIOD
which has transpred since the settlement
of the city, each day 10 represent a century
of history and progress. The three civil
cations will also be represented that
which existed at the time OF the coming OF
the conquerors, that which the Spanlard'
brought with them and that which followed
the American occupation of 1916. Thesc
reprcsentations will be illustrated by caval
cedes in costume, indicative Of the severa
distinctive expeditions into New Mexico
and the surrounding territory, There viii
also be numerous tablesuX, the whole com
bining TO make one Of the most novel and
Interesting exhibitions ever witnessed n
this country There will, in addition, be
