An odd idea which is also practical is
boas which were so popular last season
and which promise to retain their hold
this year Last year each boa was headed
with what appeared to be the head of a
mink. This year this idea is retained,
and the mouth of the mink opens and
closes again by means of spring so as to
retain firm hold on the other end Of the

people to find out about the worth of

n INFANT, wondrous in your power,
~, What greater marvel could We seeki
You ask more questions In an hour
Than man can answer in a week

Strangers are mainly attract
ed to Rocky Ford by the world
renowned Watermelon Day.
Thousands of people throng our
streets, while others crowd around
the melon stand to eat cantaloupes
and watermelons, and the conse-
quence is that our town is adver-
tised far and wide for the excel
lence of its melons. No little in
terest is shown by our town people
as we'll as by the people of the val
lev as our artesian well progresses
and the first question asked when
arriving here is: "How deep is
she down, or, how ore they get
ting along with the artesian well?"
The next question asked is about
the great Dry Goods House of
Maxwell Bros. which any person
in Otero county can answer.
Rocky Ford enterprise., 1895-06-13

For an intelligent person it
doesn't require 5 to 10 years ex-
perience in order to learn the
wants and wishes of the people.
We have been here about 60 days,
during which time we have learned
the most essential and i'm pertant
features in the line of merchan-
disc. We have learned and dis
covered the wants and wishes OF
the people. What the people want
in Rocky Ford is bargains-rich
and handsome bargains-bargains
in rich and seasonable mere ham
dise-bargains that can only be
excelled by Hilfker's Cash Store
bargains that are far superior
bargains that will far surpass all
other bargains-bargains that are
unparalleled in the history of the
valley. That is what people want
and that is what they shall have
and will get if they come to our
store. We shall henceforth enter
the field as record breaker, beat
ing and far surprising all past and
present records. We shall make
such extreme low prices as will
rouse the envy of the largest con-
Germ in the state. We shall make
but one price and that price will be
the same to the expert as to the
inexperienced-the same to the
child as to the parent-the same
to the rich as to the poor-the
same to you as to your neighbor-
and that price positively will be
the lowest possible price that can
be made on merchandise of equal
merit. Our stock is we'll assorted,
carrying the newest and latest
styles and novelties in the market.
New goods are arriving daily
which are particularly adapted to
this section of the country. The
marvellous reductions which are
continuously going on at HILL
FIKER'S is evidence that they
are determined, at all hazards, to
be always in the lead.

houses. One of the officials Of the Ord

that in his opinion an artesian well will
be one of the new improvements of our
town in the near future. Neither the
town company nor the O. L. & w. Co.,
have fully decided on the new enter
prise, but it is being had under advise
ment. Good water will be the next best
inducement that can be offered home
