An interesting fact has been Giscoy
cred in connection with the Rio Mimbre.
which ri es in the mountains CT the south
era nSst-of New Mexico.
4 The river is known to sink before II
reaches Deming on the Southern Pacific
Deming is built in the dry bed where the
river evidently ran years ago. Wells OF
good water have been found st Deming,
and the river has thus been traced that
far stree. But il is net known where It
went after crossing the railway track.
Is has been shown recently that it con-
tinues underneath the surface to the
mexican line, where it crosses into the
Stale OF Chihuahua. Ii then turns TO the
SOUTHEAST, and, crossing the Mexican
Central track near station called Sam
alsyuca, it empties into the Rio Grande
near Camp Rice.
The discovery gives assurance that
considerable part OF Chihushua and
Southern New Mexico is susceptible of
development which before was thought to
pc almost worthless because Of its aridity.
Wells can be sunk in many places and in
this way water may be supplied to large
number of cattle.
