One afternoon when the coach passed

not transpire. but there was Il surprise
among tie citizens when it was known
few days later that she had gone to
live at the Golfers. The surprise was
occasoned by the fact that Golfer and
his sister had lived entirely alone, new

was not family in the gu!ch where
any one especially as unattractive a

likely to find board.

Ship Building Company. and the fair
sponsor was followed by her father,

ed States or in Cuba and to do much
better in the future- There are but two
countries on earth where tobacco is
found growing wild and without cultis
vation. These are Brazil and New
Mexico. The conditions here are ideal
and with proper care, Mr. Edmunds
believes that on the experimental SO
about 5000 pounds OF tobacco per acre.
This is the minimum estimate of the
production. At the very least, this
crop will amount to 10000 pounds and
will be worth as soon as gathered, at
"a minimum, ten cents per pound, al
though he thinks that it will bring a
much higher price. The maximum
cost of production may reach $50 per
acre, although the chances are that 1t
will be under $50 per acre. The profit
on the venture, even in this experiment
tai year, can therefore easily be calcu-
lated and will be, at minimum figure
of tine product and maximum figure of
cost, enormous. With experience and
decreased acreage, the cost of produc-
ton is bound to decrease and result OF
production increase. Next year it is
proposed to secure tract of land in
the Mesilla Valley and commence to-
bacco culture thereon a considerable
scale. The product of the experiment
tai so acres this year will either be
sold to eastern manufacturers or fac
tory for the manufacture of smoking
tobaccos, cigars and cigarettes will be
erected in Albuquerque. This matter is
under consideration, but has not yet
been finally settled. Mr.. Edmunds i'm
presses one as being thoroughly con-
versant with tobacco culture and rails
ing, with the handling of the tobacco
crops and with everything connected
with the industry and Is sanguine Of
success. There is every reason to be-
lleve, that the venture will be thor
oughly satisfactory from a financial
and other standpoints and that new
and important industry has been intro
duced in the territory which, in a few
years, will grow to great magnitude,
use much capital and give employment |
to many persons.

was first directed here by Wesley Mer-
ritt, Industrial commissioner of the
Santa Fe Railway system. After inter-
viewing and corresponding with Mr..
Merritt, Mr. Edmunds went to Albu-
querque and the Commercial Club of
that town aided him wherever possi-
BILE. He made trip through the Rio
Grande valley from Albuquerque to the
Texas line and came to the conclusion
that New Mexico was one of the very
best, If not the best, sections wherein
to raise tobacco in it's greatest purity
and to perfection. The best tobaccos
grown are produced in arid and semi
arid countries where irrigation pre-
walls and notably in the valleys of the
River Nile and in certain portions OF
Turkey, especially Asia Minor. New
Mexico. in general, and portions of IT
in particular, offers an ideal field for
successful tobacco growing. The soil
contains great deal of potash, an in
gredient absolutely necessary to the
growth of fine tobacco and, using irrl-
cation for the tobacco plants, their
natural aromas and flavors are pre-
served, while in the humid countries
the rains wash off and destroy the
greater part of these flavors and aro-
mas.
The company was formed in Albu-
querque and incorporated under the
name of the New Mexico Tobacco
Company" Mr.. Edmunds has been
appointed it's manager and the first
extensive experiment of tobacco cul'
ture in New Mexico will be tried this
year on a tract of about so acres of ,

already been sown and Mr.. Edmunds !
