A Timely EntCrprisc.

Santa Fe is sadly in need of the services
of some active man who will unnertake
to handle the fruits and vegetables of
producers on commission, and it is likely
that fruit drying or evaporating plant
could be managed by the same party i'll
such manner as to bring big profits
and greatly benefit the producer as well.
Here is what the San Juan Times says
of n new enterprise at Farmington:
William Locke came down Monday
with an evaporator that he has just pur-
chased Of the Stahl Evaporator company
of Quincy, Ill. 1t has capacity for dis
posing of from twenty five to thirty bush
els of green fruit every twenty-four
hours. The entire cost, put up in run
ming order, including two pairing ma
chimes, will be trihe over $l35. Mr..
Locke will only utilize waste fruit, as it
will not pay him to purchase in order to
evaporate, as the shrinkage-six pounds
of green to one of evaporated-will not
admit of its uso where . cents and over
car be netted on the green fruit,

WAIT NO LONGER.

There are some people who would wait
at heavens gate, though the last call had
been given. They would wait to assure
themselves that all was right, and such
prudence is not blamed generally speak
ing. Bat when a policeman at a central
railway station sings out call aboard" he
generally means it, and the fellow who
waits for further information is always
left.
And so we say, when the men of Dur
ham sing out that the time is about here,
and is here, that bargains are to be Sc
cured in real estate; when all can see
building going on on every hand, well it
is about the last call of "all aboard" and
those who fail to catch on lose the whole
trip.
Durham is bigger to day than ever in
her history. She has more men and
more women She has more wealth.
She has more houses. She has more
people who push and who believe in
pushing. She has more taxable property
and more people who are willing to be
taxed for public improvements.
The old town has just about turned
wrong side out during the past twelve
months, and none of these propositions
can be doubted.
And so THE GLOBE says now is the
time to buy Durham dirt that now is
the time to get a move and do something
for yourself. There is a cloud passing
you had better catch on.

atmosphere of the great wicked metrop-
oils in which it has its home, and in de-
vising plans to keep out the cholera the
coming season. The south will take care
of itself, and if the negroes do not like it
down here, let them all go north, where
they will fare better. This is the logic
of it, and THE GLOBE, speaking for the
New South, says it would be the greatest
thing that ever happened for this section.
