WHEAT RAISING IN NEW MEXICO.

Looking to the future of agriculture in
New Mexico we can not but think that
wheat growing must eventually become a
most profitable industry in these fertile
valleys, and before many years the de.
mand from the countries farther south
will be such that the profits will be still
further increased by converting the grain
into breadstuffs here before shipment.
Particularly does this appear to be one
of the coming chief sources of wealth
in Eddy and Chaves counties in the
Pecos valley country, for there by
irrigation from twenty to thirty bushels
of grain per acre may be counted on and
the relative location of that region to the
deep water ports of the gulf is such that,
coupled with it's railway facilities, farmers
and millers can lay their products into
the holds Of the big ships of the foreign
trade at an expense far below tn at which
the grain producers OF the non-irrigating
farmers of northern Texas, Kansas, Ne
braska and Iowa have to submit to. 1t is
no wonder, then, that the thrifty class OF
agriculturists is just now seeking homes
in southeastern New Mexico, specially
in Eddy county. With improved rail-
road facilities and the continued de-
velopment of irrigation enterprises, all
the valley lands of New Mexico will
in comparatively short time experience
a similar demand for farm lands.
According to the official October crop
report the average yield of wheat in this
country for the whole breadth harvested |
was fifteen bushels per acre. This is
three bushels per acre above the average |
for the years from 1880 to 1890 inclusive |
and over one bushel above the highest |
Santa Fe daily New Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1885-1897, 1891-10-27

average ever before recorded. Spring
wheat averaged 1914 bushels and winter
wheat 14.4 bushels. The average yield
in Colorado was 2O.2 bushels per acre,
the highest of any state or territory.
Minnesota, the Dakotas, Washington and
Oregon, the boosted big producers take
back seat when Colorado is men
toned. These figures prove quite as
much for New Mexico as for Colorado,
for no one will pretend to say that Colo
RADIO has the least advantage in soil or
climate over New Mexico as wheat pro-
ducing region.

THE law does not permit the Treasurer
of the territory to put out any OF the ter
ritorial funds on interest and what's more
no funds are put out at interest. But
then the long cared Silver City Sentinel

anyway. 1t is not built to tell the truth
and it is not the policy of that sheet to
tell the truth about anything affecting the
present Republican Administration in New
Mexico, or any Republican newspaper.

Vide the Democratic ex-sherifrs OF Santa
Fe aud Grant Counties.
With all the fuss made by the press of
the territory over the shortage of court
funds, none of them seem to get at the
real cause of the trouble. The fact is that
four or five of the sherffs and ex-sheriffs
owe the territory considerably over $780,
600 OF money collected which should have
been turned into the territorial treasury.
Had this money been turned in there
would have been no shortage, and the
courts would Lave been moving along,
and the various juries acquitting criminals
with alacrity and dispatch. Why it is
that officials whose duty 1t is to do so, do
not force the officers or bondsmen to turn
over the money due the territory, is one
OF the political mysteries not easily solved,

matter, even though some of the "unfor-

cate. Such thing as "honest clean
politics"-what a charming thing it
would be in York city and York

most corrupt jobbery and boodling in
our politics would be defended as
political virtue and political honesty
by these same Democratic organs. 1t
is one thing to live up to profession
of "honest clean politics" and another
to only make profession to deceive the
honest people. Politics in York

clean. The boss politicians have run

help the bosses, and have taxed the

reads "lest happily we drift away" In

be secured and the master finds it nee essary
TO turn the vessel around and stem the
current in order to land his passengers.

to be made they drift away" Sometimes

LALLY PROSECUTES.
He Says Downey Knew it Was
Loaded.

A few weeks ago Michael Laley, while
on his way home from the Indian Ridge
collery, was met by young man named
Thomas Downey. Lslly asked Downey
why he was not out to work and the reply
was "Ill shoot you" A revolver Downey
had in his hands was discharged at the
same time and the bullet, taking down
ward course, entered Lallys leg, Just be-
low the knee. No arrest was made until
Saturday night, when Lally swore out a
warrant. Downey 'urni he'd bail for trial
He says that the shooting was purely acci-
dental and that when he said he would
shoot he did not know the revolver was
loaded. Downey is apparently very much
distressed over the case. He says that his
last pay for two weeks was Sl6 and that
amount he divided by giving $40 to Lally,
S5 to the doctor, and kept 81 for himself
He also expresses willingness to make more
payments, Lally is able to be about, but
his leg remains pretty sore. He went to
the Miners Hospital an Saturday and,
after reopening the wound, Dr. Biddle ex-
tracted piece of flannel about the size of a
dime. 1t is believed that the leg will now
heal rapidly.

in no wise improper. People are always
much interested in knowing the absence of
friends, and equally glad to know the
presence of any visitor upon whom they
wish to call, Some very sensible people
say they don't want their names in the
papers. This may be true as to puff or a
bit of evident fattery; but it can hardly be
true of the simple announcement of a visi-
tors name, or the temporary absence of a
gentleman or lady. So bring in the items,
we are always glad to get them. No visi-
tor is more welcome to our sanctum than
the one who brings in an item.
