Mr.. H. T. Hubbard of the San Juan. is
expecting visit shortly from his broth
er, Mr. |. G. Hubbard, of Nokons, Ill.

ty to look over the country with view to

At the Abilene nursery and fruit farm,
Abilene, Texas, says the Reporter, of
that town, measurements were made by Il
party of vlslJors t. ',atermine as nearly
as possible, the amount of Texas ribbon
cane, grown on one acre of land. They
showed the net tonnage to be little over
thirty-tive tons, and the yield of seed to
be fraction over ninety-fve bushels. 1t
is understood that the seed at this farm
has been contracted to Mr.. c. B. Eddy,
at this place, at $3.50 per bushel, or
$237,50 per acre, and the green sorghum,
at So per ton, would swell the receipts
from one acre of the cane, to S3O7.5O. 1t
is said the cost of cultivating and mar
keting the crop will not exceed S25 if the
sorghum is retained for feed or sold on
the farm. We see no reason why it should
not grow well in this valley.--Eddy Citi-

Last week II. E. Muse and R. ?. Barnes,
of this city, started to go to Hillsborough
on horseback over the trail. Mr. Muse
had case in court and Mr.. Barnes went
along as legal adviser. Barnes had been
over the trail several years ago but Muse
had never been over tho mountains in
that section. They left the Mimbres river
beyond Georgetown and it appears, took
the wrong trail. They were in
the mountains far to the north of Kings
ton and they had to walk about fifty miles
before they came to habitatiOn. They
were over two days without food and for
the greater part of that time were without
water They had no blankets and were
obliged to keep fire all night in order
to keep warm. They battled with hunger
thirst and fatigue and although it seemed
many times that they must perish, they
