MAJOR Towers, the "a circle man,
one of the most prominent cattle
men OF the west, was a guest at
the Ward house Sunday night,
accompanied by Van Law the ex
pert heiter speyor. who had just
completed the work OF speSiDg
upward Of 600 head of heiters for
24-circ1e company. They went on
to Clayton Monday, where the
Mayor will meet 1900 head OF New
Mexico cattle which he has pur
chased and is bringing to his Baca
county ranches, and Mr.. Van
Law will take the train to some
Texas point where he has contracts
in his line oil work.
Bob and Mrs. Ward and Mrs. l.
A. Wikotf visited over Sunday at
the Eddleman ranch In the south
eastern part Of the county. They
brlng a glowing account of the
peach crop to be seen there on so
trees. Mr.. Eddleman has over 200
bushels OF fine peaches which he
is selling at *1.OO per bushel in
the orchard. Mr.. Eddleman has
planted more fruit trees Of peach
and apple, and also has grapes.
In few years he will have the
fruit farm of Baca county, being
situated under the shadow of the
Black Mesa, and other hills rear
ing their heads hundreds of feet
in the air around him. he never
fails to have fruit. The protect
ion from the hills seems perfect,
and no special pains is needed to
grow anything in the irult line
that can be grown anywhere else
in the state. His only means of
irrigation Is the windmill, which
SO far has proved effectual, his
wells being II and 25 feet deep.
He irrigates his orchard and
fine garden from one II foot we'll.
which has an ineNhaustable sup
ply of soft water. He will put
in another windmill SO that he
may grow shade trees for his
home.

PUBLIC OPINION.

The following press notices of
Public Opinion are characteristic
of those constantly appearing in
publications of all classes in all
sections OF the country. The
Wesleyan Magazine says:-''The
pages of Public Opinion each
week give a carefully selected re-
sumo OF activity along different
lines both at home and abroad.
One noticeable feature Is the con-
densation of the most important
articles from the best periodicals,
so that the reader gets, within
brief compass, the best thought Of
the day. 'Solidity' well expresses
the character of the articles. De-
void of every tendency to attract
attention by mere display and
sensational captions, it appeals to
busy thinkers, who will find 1t q
most satisfactory reflection Of the
upper strata of public opinion"
The School Gazette says:-"The
Editor of the School Gazette has
been constant student of Public
Opinion for ten years, and he
owes much to that paper for the
help it gives HIM IN his work
Those who aim to become philo-
sophie students of the worlds do
lngs, can not afford to be without
it
The Superior, (Neb.) Weekly
Journal, a representative member
of the rural press, said in recent
lssue:-"To the busy man. who
desires to keep IN touch with the
big world beyond our little West.
ern towns, Public Opinion Is a
necessity"
City and State, Philadelphia
publication, devoted to good
government and reform, says;
''The particolored opinions usual
ly found IN its pages are not easily
blended. It. is needtul to have
these opinions, however, for thus
alone can we know truly our land
and time, the world and man, and
how goes the battle of the hour
and every hour has Its battle."
