Ultimately, whenever they get f4el
cheaper, larger districts will be brought
under irrigation by means of steam
pumps. There are many parts Of the
republic where they can get artesian
wells at one hundred and twenty feet.
Water, cheap coal and steel are the great
necessities of Mexico.
In Mexico. Indian corn is on the far
southern edge, where the plant will
grow. This is planted now so they will
be ready for the rains in May, which
occur every day till after night from one
O'Clock in the day until sometimes in
September, April being the hottest
month When the corn is ripe they cut
the stalk off close to the ground and put
II into very large sacks; and when
they waut to shell it they Law it
oown on the ground in a large circle,
ana they hitch about a half dozen horses
and mules with q lasso and they trot
around AS in the circus. They then
gather up the shell corn and refuse stalk
and fodder and that is their long forage
for their mules, donkeys and oxen The
smaller farmers cut ont the middle limbs
of the mesquite tree and pile the corn
stalks in the top Of the tree. The corn
IS light and chaffy, and the favorite
bread tor the indian is to husk it with
a solution Of potash, and then grind it
by hand with two stones and make it
into pancakes, baked on a hot iron.
This is called the tortilla.
Butter is very poor in Mexico, and it
is worth seventyfye cents per pound.
This is surprising when the alfalfa Yields

The cattle Of the country are not the
long horned Spanish cattle, but look to

Durham blood. They use two to each

steel plow, but they will cut off one han
die. They work from two to ten mules
to a cart which draw from two to three
tons. They also use the mule in
transporting their silver ores. He car
