For two years bul little money has been
invested IN ranch property in any sec
ton. Cspitslists have turned their at
tention TO property which for the time
seemed more attractive. A disposition
Fis manifested this spring, however, to
invest sgsin 20 limited extent; and al

played, it Is plain that confidence
is In some degree strengthen
irg sgain. The greatest investment
ssst We have heard CT for long time is

organized 10 operate in New MEXICO with
capital OF S5e0, 900. There is notlkely,

never sgain get in cattleward as 1t did s
few years ago on the plains National
