and vineyards, stand as an augury of
what the future is to be. From all the
fertile valleys OF the territory come reports
OF the most pleasant and profitable char
acter. The people seem to have thor
oughly awakened to the fact that here for
years they have been neglecting one of
their greatest opportunities for bringing
money into the country. From Colfax
on the northeast to Grant on the south
west; from the fruitful San Juan to the
prolific lower Pecos have this year sprung
into the bearing fruit orchards that are
proving a revelation to the staid old
timer who has all along seen little but the
cacti and grease-W eed to grace the soil of
New Mexico. The produCtivenesS Of the
soil, uninyting as it sometimes looks,
wherever tried, has proven phenomenal;
the climate OF the territory seems espeC-
tally adopted to horticulture, and the
prices obtained for the fruits have been
such as to open the eyes of not few to
what New Mexico's future in this line
must certainly be.
We are gratifed beyond expression at
the turn affairs have so quickly taken in
this matter. We believe our people are
now on the right track-some of them, at
least, and We feel confident that the start
the tt rritory has now obtained respecting
fruit culture will result before many years
in giving to New Mexico fruits, for their
size, flavor, beauty and saleableness, a
reputation as wide as the nation itself.
And in this connection we would call
attention OF the earnest men who are
now engaged in this line of industry TO the
necessity of harmonious, united endeavof.
The New Mexico Horticultural society,
organized long ago, but which Of late has
sprung into renewed life, is organized
with this purpose in view, and it ought to
have the heartiest cooperation of every
fruit grower, farmer and viticuturist in
the territory. Its prime object is to build
up and encourage fruit growing in every
part of New Mexico, and it has called q
meeting at Albuquerque during fair week,
September -, which, it is sincerely
hoped, will attract together the represen-
tative fruit men OF all our fruitful val
leys.

If the Republicans of New Mexico are
true to themselves and loyal to their party,
there is no question about carrying the

we will have some advantage next year.

not yet elapsed for coming across the

is "A story Of continuous retreat OF the

Let IL be supposed that 500, TOO years
