Southeast Baca Notes.

We wish each citizen of our
county could step to his orchard
this evening and gloat over n fine
crop ofpeaches and apples. Some
day this will be n fact In every
part of the county as it is fast be
coming In the Southeast.
W. II. Konkel measured one
peach which was ten and one
fourth inches IN circumference.
No, this isn't bad. And such an
undesirable complication of
broken branches and dropping
trees and luscious fruit we never
saw before as we saw it at S. j.
Konkeps. The trees were heard
groanlng(of course we imagined
we heard them groan )under the
ponderous load, and we thought
to make the burden OF the trees
easier to be borne; but we gave up
In despair, preferlng to hear the
trees groan than to listen to our
own agonizing waillngs. But say.
couldn't you do something to re-
lieve the treess (Mr. Konkel
will pay tor this ''ad,'') And there
are the Lamport, Waldren, Great
house and Alcorn orchards bear
ing fruit and host OF young
groves thriving only as Baca coun
tv air. sunlight and water can as
sist them. Now, every man has
one or two wlndmills: let him
make haste to get few rods of
wire netting and few hundred
fruit trees. You'll be clad you
did.
News is scarce. Or we've been
too Indolent to catch it as 1t floated
on the MONDAY breeze. Perhaps
we fell to sleep under the narcotic
effects OF few dishes of peaches
and cream. Or maybe the news
monger and gossip have had their
mouths busy with something else
We certainly have.
Curtis Elder has been working
in his we'll and now has water suf-
licient to supply his stock during
the winter.
Wesley Alcorn is assisting his
brother Harry.
Lasley expects to thresh about
two hundred bushels of cane seed.
Yon can sell that for good price
next spring, Mr.. Lasley, so reports
say.
John Nance soon gets on to
American ways again. after visit.

an visited at Lepel's last Sunday.
Marion Bryan was seen in the
Konkel vicinity.
Grandma Konkel is visiting her
SONS Sim and Will. Six years ago
she went east to live, having spent
nearly ten years here previously.
She notes many changes and con
siderable progress in our prairie
farms and ranches. We are glad
to welcome her here again.
Broomcorn will all be cut and

Jack Frost made a raid on the

If there is anyone in the Ari-
zona legislature who really
wishes enactment of law which
will compel mining companies
to pay their fair share of the
burdens of government, why is
there not framed a bill modelled
upon the laws and constitution
in force in Idaho, Utah, Colorado
Wyoming and Montana? All
the constitutions of those states
provide that mining properties
shall be assessed upon surface
improvements. just like all other
properties-then the Legislature
is directed to enact la ws taxing
the output of the mines (the
gross output in some OF the
states, the net output in Others).
In all those states the COnstitu-
tion and laws have been that
way ever since they became
states. and the plan has worked
well.-Oasis.
