More About Cantal0upes.

This paper has been advising New
Mexico farmers to grow good varieties
of cantaloupes and seek the eastern
market. The following facts indicate
that profit in this branch of agriculture
is large for western producers. The
Rocky Ford (Colo.) cantaloupes pack
forty-five to a crate. The wholesale
price averages above 81 per crate. A
recent photograph taken at Rocky Ford
of a wagon load of III crates of canta-
loupes, valued at 5000, and hauled by
one pair of horses, shows how valuable
is the product. The entire load was the
result of but one days picking from
five acres.
One st. Louis dealer has handled
nearly the entire Rocky Ford crop this
year, and paid therefor over s4O0, 900.
In Chicago last week the Rocky Ford
melons brought 81 per dozen at retail,
while the sweet Michigan gems went
begging at 20 to 30 cents per basket.
Saturday in st. Louis homegrown mel
ons sold for so cents per crate and the
Rocky Fords at $1.75. Reports from 9TH
err eastern markets are in ~consonance
with the above.
Melons from other Colorado towns
sell equally as well when properly
packed and graded. The favorite size is
not much larger than the doubled fists
of a man, just lar~e enough to serve
individually at restaurants.

The TransyaaI Treasure.

The English people have abundant
reason for seeking to control the portion
of the Transvaal country where gold
mines are located. No less than 100000
miners are employed, Outlanders and
blacks, the Beers refusing to do that
class of work. The average value of the
ore is only $10.50 per ton. Cyanide treat
ment instead of smelling reduces the
cost of production to $3.50 per ton with
large plants. The great magnitude of
the fields, the absolute continuity of the
ore and it's positiveness with depth form
the great value of the district. The out
put for 1898 was al tons avoirdupois of
fine gold, a modest load for a freight
train. Batteries of 200 stamps, each
Weighing 1900 pounds, and crushing
nearly five IONS apiece daily, are quite
common. During the last year forty
companies, with an aggregate invest
ment of $65, 900, 900, paid dividends that
averaged 34.6 per cent for the total in
vestment, the market value of the stock
being 400 to 600 per cent above par. AS
English capital operates nearly all the
mines, the extent of England's interests
in the Transvaal are seen.

Encouraging Tree Planting.

The division of forestry of the depart
ment of agriculture has decided to aid
farmers in the west to establish planta-
tion forests by cooperating with them
in the necessary work. A circular has
been issued explaining conditions upon
which such help may be had. Upon ap-
plication of a land owner an agent of
the department will advise the appli-
cant as to the best varieties of trees to
plant in each particular locality, and
where practicable will personally super
intend the planting and instruct in
methods of cultivation, such assistance
to be free of charge except where a tract
in excess of five acres is to be planted.
By conserving the moisture and tenn
pering the wind, forest plantations
modify the local climate to a very
marked degree. AS the farmers of the
plains come to recognize more fully the
great indirect as we'll as direct value of
foreign plantations, wood lots, shelter
belts and wind breaks, scattered over
the treeless regions, the result will
prove of vast Importance in the devel-
opment of the west.

Manila as a Cotton Market.

Senator Morgan says the future
the cotton market Of the world will be
Manila, n that the cotton from the
south will be sen there direct by the
Nicaragua canal instead of by Liver
pool. TWo-thirds of the population of
the world is in Asia, and will be reached
from Manila, where cheap labor will
operate manufactures. The Alabama
senator foresees that by c~easing to pay
toll through Liverpool a more profitable
market will be gained for southern cot
ton growers. He thinks expansion is
greatly in the interest of the south.
Perhaps New England cotton mill own
ers also see that they will be unable to
secure cotton and to sell fabrics when
the south does business direct with the
Asiatics. That nay account for oppo-
sitin to expansion.

The Irritation CONGRESS.

The irrigation congress to meet at
Missoula, Mont, September 25, should
certainly be attended by the delegates
chosen by Governor Otero. There must
be no public gathering concerning irri-
cation and the disposition of arid lands
without New Mexico being represented.
The objects of the national irrigation
association, which called the congress,
are set forth officially by the constitu-
ton and bylaws as follows:
The leasing of the public grazing
lands at a nominal rent in limited areas
to settlers farming adjacent lands, the
revenue from rentals to go to the states
for irrigation development, leases to be
subject to right of reclamation by irri-
cation and Of settlement Of lands actu-
ally cultivated, title Of land to remain
in federal government until actual set
Element, the leasing of said lands to be
under the control of the states where
situated n the arising there
from to be expended by the states un-
der the direction of their state engineer
ing bureau; provided, that in any state
having no engineering bureau, the fed
eral government may lease the lands
and expend the revenues in the con
struction of irrigation works in that
state.
The construction by the federal gov
eminent of storage reservoirs for flood
protection, and to save for use in aid of
navigation and irrigation the flood wa
tiers which now run waste, and also the
construction wherever necessary of res
ervoirs and irrigation works to furnish
water for the reclamation and actual
settlement of the arid public lands.
The preservation Of the forests as
sources of water supply, the conserva-
ton Of existing supplies by approved
methods of irrigation and distribution,
and the increase of the water resources (
of the arid region by the investigation
and development Of underground sup
plies.
The adoption Of a harmonious system
Of irrigation laws in all the arid and
semi-arid states and territories, under
which the right to the use of water for
irrigation shall vest in the user, and be-
'ome appurtenant to the land irrigated,

FUTURE OF MANILA.
(KanSas City Starr

NdllSd lily Sldf.)
Senator Morgan points to Hong Kong
as an example of what Americans can
make of Manila. Hong Kong has been
transformed in sixty years by the Brit
ish from a sterile rock to the second or
third largest shipping port in the world,
and he has faith that the capital of the
Philippines is destined to become a
greater port than the English island
city off the coast of China.
Senator Morgan is about to start a
campaign in the south to arouse senti-
ment in favor of expansion, for the rea-
sons here stated. In doing this he is
going contrary to the beliefs of the lead
ers of his party, but the senator is put
ting partisanship under his feet and
standing up for the manifest destiny Of
his country and for what he conceives
to be the best interests of the people Of
the south, whom he has represented
with conspicuous ability for many years
in the United States senate.

Iron and steel are still in great and
increasing demand, and the mines have
not yet been able to output more rapid
ly thar the market requires. The con-
tinued upward trend of prices for raw
material is beginning to affect all
branches of manufactures of iron and
steel. Machinery for mining purposes,
because Of it's great weight, was the
first to feel the effect of the high prices,
and now other machinery of lighter
kinds is advancing in price. That the
prices will soon go to a lower figure
there is little hope for this year as it is
now expected that the output will fall
short of the estimate. Pig iron Is not
being produced as fast as consumed,
and a great deal of old machinery is
going to the foundries to be recast and
manufactured into modern forms.

Murat Halstead has not lost his cour-

laundering until he and our whole army

Mr.. Halstead promptly said a man with
those sentiments was a traitor to his

when it was retorted that two-thirds of
the audience felt the same way. Mr..
Halstead is exactly right. A man who
holds such sentiments is a traitor to his

that u armies should be captured or
driven into the sea by his country's en-

Americans EXPANDING.

In Washington there are experts upon
all sorts of subjects Some of them have
recently been collecting statistics from
the manufacturers of ready-made cloth
ing to ascertain whether the American
man Is increasing in size. The %astonish-
ing discovery has been made that the
clothing makers have had to add to
their line another size with a waist
measurement of AN inches. SO great is
the demand for clothing Of that ample
girth. In 1889, 48 inches "a the limit.
Hotel men say the increase in flesh is
due to the greater use of farinaceous
foods. Other authorities say that lack
of exercise. the use Of elevators, street
cars and other labor-saving conven-
fences causes the increase OF adipose
tissue. An increase of an inch and a
quarter in ten years is alarming. If this
Is kept UP it will take but 1000 years
for the world to be producing men 16
feet around.
