ZUN| INDIANS
PROGRESSING
With the Help Of the Government
Are Making Rapid Strides
in agriculture.
THE NEW RESERVOIR
When II is Completed the Tribe will
Have Much More Land to Cultivate
Are Good Farmers.

Work is rapidly progressing on the
reservoir which the government is
building on the Zuni Indian Reserva-
tion in the western part of the Terri
tory and when it is completed it will
store $4,000 acre feet of water for the
irrigation of 5000 acres of additional
farm lands, which will be titled by the
Zuni Indians. w. w. Jones, of San
Marcial, who has just returned from
there where he surveyed the western
boundary of the reservation, which
ends with the Territorial line, said in
an interview with a New Mexican re-
porter yesterday that the government
is doing much for the Zunis and it is
evident that they appreciate it.
"The Zunis," said Mr. JONES' "un-
like their neighbors, the Navahos, are
not nomadically inclined, but stay on
their farms from year to year, always
adding to them and bringing them to
higher state of cultivation. They live
in modern houses and farm on modern
agricultural lines. There are many
good sheep and cattle ranches on the
reservation and the government ex-
tends every aid and encouragement to
them.
"The new reservoir which is being
built at cost of about 100000, will,
when completed, store the waters of
the Rio Zuni and will give much more
land to the Indians to cultivate. AS it
is, they are almost self-sustaining.
There is a good school at Zuni and a
new school building of stone is being
erected at Black Rock, six miles from
the agency. D. d. Graham, the agent.
is we'll versed in Indian affairs and is
very popular with the leading men,
bers of the tribe. They are good
farmers and are exceptionally well
equipped. In a days trip over the res
ervation, | saw SO good farm wagons
and their horses and harness were in
splendid condition. There is no ques-
ton but that the Zuni realizes that
Uncle Sam is his best friend and that
he does his best to use to his advant.

material and an educational way"
