Gayle Talbot, who halls from that
section of superlatives, the Pecos Val
ley, is spending the week in Santa Fe
He served two terms in the legislature
of Texas, and came to look in on the
territorial assembly more through
force Of habit than anything else. Incl
dentally he puts in lick wherever op-
portunity offers for the good of the
valley, especially that portion tribu-
tary to the f1ourishing town of Artesia.
Mr.. Talbot established the Advocate
at that place when there was nothing
much in sight but prairie dogs and
prospects. =
Springs From a Well.
Speaking Of the rapid and substan-
tial development of that section Mr..
Talbot said: "The town of Artesia
sprang into existence with the advent
of the first big artesian well in that
part of the valley lying midway be-
tween Roswell and Carlsbad. This was
in July, 1903. Previous to that time
there had been many comparatively
small wells in the valley but they we're
used for domestic purposes only not
being of sufficient volume to supply
the basis for crop irrigation on a large
scale. The first well at Artesia was
put down by some progressive town
site promoters, and the flow proved
much greater than was anticipated, or
has ever been found on the Pecos be-
FORE That it's output was sufficient
for successful farming was apparent
at a glance and tide Of homeseekers
began to come that has been steadily
maintained ever since.
Thirty Wells Now.
Three months later second we'll
came in that flowed ten times as much
water as the first one. It spouted sew
eral feet above a six inch casing and
the output was 2,760 gallons per min
ute. Since that time thirty of these
larger wells have been secured and
thousands of acres of land watered
thereby. There are twenty large rotary
we'll rigs now operating in the vicini-
ty of Artesia, and one or two wells
are completed per week. 1t has been
demonstrated that one Of these spout
ers will easily water 800 acres Of land
planted in general field crops and $40
where a good portion Of the land is
planted to corn and fruit. AS will be
seen by this, each well brought in
means work and profit for several
families and the workers have arrived
to supply the demand.

country can be made as beautiful as
one may desire. Nearly all the land
around Artesfa is above the alkali lev.
els and such as was cultivated last
year proved to be of good strength.
Sixty bushels of corn were made per
acre on the Heath and Hunter farms
last year. r. B. Barnes crop of
Kaff1r corn netted him $48 per acre,
and J. G. Hale's cane brought him $35
per acre. Apples, peaches and alfalfa
on Penasco Valley ranches nearby
made extraordinary yields.
Price Of Land.
"The cheapest irrigable lands in the
United States are to be secured in this
section-lands that will pay the pur.
chase price every year. Raw lands
in the proven artesian belt can be Sc
cured at from $3.50 to SO per acre.
This can be bought, watered and put
in cultivation for $25 per acre, and 1t
will bring back more money than that
each year. This is a fact that home
seekers have not failed to heed and
no portion Of New Mexico has settled
faster than this. 1t has been mixed
population so far as politics is con-
cerned, most Of 1t coming from the
northern and middle states, and the
Democrats Of the Pecos Valley may
yet have to scrap for its majorities.
City Of Promise.
"The growth of the Artesia country
has not been confined to the farming
district alone" says Mr.. Talbot "the
building OF the progressive town Of
Artesia has been nothing short of mar
velous." Less than two years ago
the village consisted of the old CHS
um Ranch, now owned by Mrs. Sallie
Robert, and the Pecos Valley Railroad
section house. Today, 1t is one OF the
busiest towns on that branch Of the
Santa Fe. A station was established
at this point last February. The first
freight receipts were $4,000.

murdered man, and he will accompany
the party to Estancia. He expects to

of court without bond.
The return trip will be made to this
city Thursday evening.
Startling developments are likely to
occur in the preliminary hearing be-
fore Judge Mann on Thursday.

a NArloNAL cAAurAuouA.

The Ottawa Chautaaqua assembly.
which IS the oldest cEautauGna in the
West. has taken a long sep forward
this year. Last year the floods came
and as a result tss Chautauqua failed
to mateialize This year much Of last
years LEFTOVER energy was added to
the normal amount, aith the result
that the Ottawa assembly is far big
ger than ever
For long time the ottawa Chautau-
qua was only a local affair. For the
past dozen years or longer it has been
of statewide interest This year It is
attracting the attention Of the whole
nation. This is partly due to the un-
usually large list Of national speakers
secured Lawson. LaFollette, Jerome
and others who are there are men bet
ter known on Fifth avenue, in Wall
street and in Washington than they
are in Kansas. The engagement of
men Of national reputation in platoons
has made the East stop and inquire
wonderingiy, What kind Of an institu.
ton is this Ottawa Chautauqua?"
Merely attracting tba tention OF
the East lacks goos cal. Of course
OF becoming a national institution. but
il makes il possible to secure. next
year. more and better attractions
from among the national celebrities
Such men as S. S. Mcclure OF Nc
Cure's magazine, supplemented by
large number OF eastern newspaper
men, are attending and may be count
ed on to give the affair due publicit,
throughout the nation. Two or thre'
more years like this one will result IL
small excursions OF eastern people
coming to Ottawa to tent for the chau
tauqua season, and two or three year,
more will see these excursions en-
Iarged from small ones to big ones.
1t is a bright prospect that appears
to be in sight of the ottawa chautau
qua management. May they have
such good judgment and such goot
fortune as will enable them to improve
the opportunity to make their assem-
bly, an institution Of national import
ance.
