FRUIT SHIPMENTS.
Splendid Showing for the Mesilla Val
ley-A Chat with J. X. Livingston
Surprising Figures.

James K. Livingston, general manager
of tho Rio Grande Land company, came
in from Las Cruces this morning for the
purpose of being present at the funeral
services of his old friend, Hon. B. M.
| Thomas.
| In the course of conversation with a
New MEXICAN scribe this afternoon this
energetic and we'll posted business man
related some truly remarkably facts re-
lative to the progress of the fruit growing
industry in the Mesilla valley.
From him it is learned that the fruit
firm of G. W. Wood & Son, from their
magnificent peach orchard of over 1000
trees, have shipped an average of 1,40O
pounds per day by express for over two
months past, at net price of to 7
cents per pound on depot platform. Be-
sides this, they have shipped seven car
loads in unbroken consignments to single
parties in Colorado, and for the past
six weeks the Texas g. Pacific railroad
has daily had an express car filled with
fruits for Texas points direct and attached
to the Santa Fe express south. Judge
Woods will certainly clear over $500 per
acre of that portion of his orchard over
four years old, and this estimate is prob
ably under the actual condition of things.
| Judge Woods is soon to commence the
erection of extensive greenhouses mod
elled upon the latest improved plan, un-
der which the coming winter he will pro-
duce the choicest and most delicate vege-
tables with view to supplying the prin-
cipal trade throughout the territory.
AS to grape shipments, they were never
heavier nor the fruit in better shape and
flavor. The apple crop is also immense,
and that class of fruit is of very superior
size and flavor. Mrs. Casad, Thos. J. Bull,
Col Rynerson and Prof Spatcier take the
lead in apple shipments, and when the
final round up is made through the official
returns of freight shipments, not only of
apples, but of peaches and grapes, it will
be "stunner" to even the most enthusiast
tic friend of New Mexico.
In melons alone, Capt. B. G. Wandell
has shipped over seven car loads from
about twenty acres planted on the west
Las Cruces tract of the Rio Grande Land
company, and Will net over ST. 500 this
year on this crop alone, showing conclu-
sively what well directed work in that line
will do.
"Drouth? Well, yes; we are all dried
up, so far as any good the Rio Grande has
done us since the 10th of August" said
Mr.. Livingston, "but the equanimity of
our fruit growers and farmers is very lit
tie disturbed from that cause, for the
shortage of the alfalfa crop will be more
than made up through the extra price we
will get this winter. We are all becoming
convinced, however, that storage reser-
voirs will soon become an actual neces-
sity for the Rio Grande valley; although
as we have an inexhaustible underfow, a
system of wells and pumps will solve the
problem so far as fruit growing is con-
cerned."

CONSIGNED TO EARTH.
Imposing Ceremonies this Forenoon
Attending the Funeral of the Late
Hon. B. NJ. Thomas.

The funeral of the Hon B. NJ. Thomas,
late territorial secretary, took place this
forenoon from the family residence. The
spacious house was thronged with sor-
rowing friends when at 10 o'clock Rev. G..
G. Smith, of the Presbyterian church,
opened the funeral sermon. The rev
erend gentleman's remarks were listened
to with the deepest interest and his earn
est and eloquent eulogy of the dead as a
man, typical citizen in all that makes
men perfect and as an official ever guided
by the keenest perception of conscien-
tious duty and fidelity to self and all men,
met with responsive echo in the hearts
of every one who heard it.
The handsome casket was covered with
wealth of rare floral tributes. After
Rev. Mr.. Smiths impressive remarks, fol-
lowed by fervent prayer, the casket was
removed to the hearse and the throng
took up its solemn march to Fairview

THE FINAL BULLETIN.
Last of the Crop Reports for this Sea-
s0n-The Directors Remarks to
Voluntary Observers.

Director Hersey, of the U. S. weather
bureau, to-day issued the last of the terri
torial crop reports for the present season.
The issuance of these useful monthly
statements will be resumed in April next.
Appended is the final report:
U. S. Department of agriculture, weather
bureau, weather-crop bulletin, of the
New Mexico weather service, for the
month of September, 1892.
Bulletin No. G.
The temperature was decidedly above
the normal for the month and the rainfall
greatly below the normal.
drought of unparalleled severity now
covers the whole territory.
At Santa Fe the total precipitation for
the month was only trace, being the
least precipitation ever recorded for the
month of September, at that station,
whose records cover period of over
twenty years. The late varieties of fruit
were badly injured and in some localities
nearly ruined by the drought. The cattle
ranges are in very poor condition for the
approaching winter and it appears that
nothing but very mild open winter can
prevent heavy losses to this important
industry.
SUMMARY FOR THE SEASON.
The crops of small grains were har-
vested before being much affected by the
drought, and about an average yield was
secured.
The corn crop is a little below the
average, and potatoes are also below the
yield. From two to four cuttings of al
falfa were made and all but the last cut
ting of this excellent forage crop were
fully up to the average, the last cutting
being badly affected by the drought in
most localities. Early varieties of fruit
were little below the average and the
late varieties very poor.
REMARKS.
The severe drought has strongly i'm
pressed on the people of New Mexico the
. necessity of storage reservoirs for irriga-
ton, and work is already going forward
on several of these enterprises in various
parts of the territory. The director
wishes to express his appreciation and
thanks for the hearty cooperation he has
had in the work of this service from the
public, most especially for the assistance
rendered by the voluntary reporters from
all parts of the territory, who without
other compensation than feeling that they
are doing public service, have promptly
forwarded weekly reports of crop and
weather conditions to this office; also to
the press of the territory which has very
generally placed the bulletins issued by
this service before its readers. The
thanks of the whole territory are due to
the progressive management of the Ma
tional Weather Bureau, at Washington,
for arranging for the organization of the
New Mexico Weather service. This bull
letin will close the issue for this season
and the weekly reports may be disconti-
nued. The monthly weather reports are
desired as usual.
