SMALL FARM IS KEY TO
AGRICULTURAL PROSPERITY
From FL Paso Herald
From FL Paso Herald

Sir William Van Horne, chairman Of the board OF
the Canadian Pacific railroad, and one Of the greatest
railway builders and managers in the world, is interested
in a score Of important business enterprises, including
factories, steamship companies, dock companies, land
companies, and banks. He is rated at several millions,
and his income is very large. A short time ago he re
morked that by exercising strict economy in al other
lines he was able to afford a farm
1t is a classic among farmers, the story OF the man
who inherited 500 acres and a mortgage. Day and night,
winter and summer, he toled, and managed to pay the
interest on his debts. Himself and family unable to buy
what they needed to maintain the place or keep up "a
comfortable standard Of living, he became almost dis
couraged.
Along came a good angel, to whom the farmer told
his story. Sell all but ten acres Tor what il will BRING
pay your debts, and farm the ten acres for all they are
worth" said the mentor. The farmer took the advice
planted rhubarb on his ten a~cresNand almost before ne
realized it he was free from the Dad Of debt, had money
in the bank. and happiness in his heart for his family S
sake.
The ten acre farm in the "old country may not be
all it is cracked up to be in the story. But in the nrl-
gated west ten acres is enough TO support a talhlly anu
accumulate a surplus for Injuries and savings. Under
the reclamation act, individual holdings are limited TO
100 acres, and some land interests at the Portland con
gress had the shamelessness to condemn the Jaw because
Of it's limitation. Yet the whole purpose of the law would
be defeated if instead of homes on the land Tor the
greatest possible number of freeholders, great tracts
should be owned and operated by non resident proprle-
tors.
That railroad succeeds best that runs through a
densely populated country. And no railroads are more
nrosperous than those that serve the farms. Certain
areas are most useful for grazing on the range system
but land that is fit for farming should be given up to
farming. And for the purpose of populating the land, the
small farm is the ideal system. Sir William Van Hornes
problem win never come to the man who has a small
tract of land that he can personally look after farming
with a few helpers to get the most out Of every square
rod of ground.
The man who buys a small farm under a reclamation
project will in most cases go on the land and farm 1t MIN
self. He will not let it lie idle, nor will he block progress
by using 1t uneconomically. The small farm is the key
to the success of the national reclamation movement.

TO ABATE CITY
DITCH NUISANCE
Holds Special Meet
ing at Which Compromise
is Agreed Upon.
SEITLES LONG CONTROVERSY

Yesterday afternoon at 4 o'clock at
an adjourned meeting of the city coun-
Gil held in the Office of Clerk Marry
f. Lee, steps we're taken by that body
that will in all probability result in
the abatement of the city ditch null
sance, which has for years been the
cause of more or less trouble to the
residents of this city.
At the meeting yesterday the couns
Gil instructed Mayor Mckee to sign
contracts with the community of Los
Griegos, owning the Los Griegos
ditch, and the community of Barelas,
owning the Barelas ditch, by the
terms OF which the surplus water of
the Los Griegos ditch, which hereto
fore has been carried off by the city
ditch, will be diverted into the Barelas
ditch near Tijeras road. The Barelas
ditch is to be kept in repair by the
three parties to the contract. The
people of Los Griegos will keep the
ditch in repair down to Tijeras road.
The city of Albuquerque will keep it
in repair between Tijeras road and
Railroad avenue, and the Barelas peo-
pie agree to maintain the ditch from
Railroad avenue to where it empties
into the Rio Grande.
The city ditch is to be left dry and
the streets gradually graded down
until there is no city ditch. The clos
ing of this ditch has brought up the
question of drainage for a large part
of the city, but the council will deal
with this at some future time.
The negotiations which resulted in
the signing of the above contracts
yesterday were conducted by Attor-
ney Summers Burkhart, representing
the people of Los Griegos, City Attor-
ney Hickey and w. c. Heacock, act
ing for the people of Barelas. lhe
negotiations have been in progress for
several months.
Now thai the question is settled, or
presumably settled, there win be re-
joicing generally.

exists in a large part of the Union, especially in the older
northern states, In the south, and in the newer states Of
the west, we find its pristine energy. A newspaper arti-
Gle spoke of yellow fever in Texas, and We reprinted this
supposed information. The avalanche of enthusiastic cor
rection which resulted was a surprise and decidedly a
pleasure. The Texans did not shrug their shoulders,
drop a word about newspaper inaccuracy, and conclude
that things would be much the same a hundred years
from now. They sat down, in considerable numbers to
remove the error, and free their state from cloud. They
have the pride of the south mingled with the activity of
the west, and the people of new states also have that
special kind Of pride which comes to those who have
helped to build the communities in which they live"
The trouble with New Mexico is that such pride as Col
her's speaks about is largely wanting. This was plainly
shown when much of the antijointure press of the terri
tory praised Curtis, despite his willful Misrepresentation
of New Mexico, because he opposed union of the two ter
ritories in a single state.

Here is the way the st. Johns, Ariz. Herald. sets

call the Arizona people ANONYMOUSLY ignorant-wbicb

then? Then the Arizona ants cuss the New Mexico aphs

SELECTIONS MADE FROM
PRESS OF SOUTHWEST
Cattle and Sheen.

The assessment rolls for 1905 show not only a big de-
crease in the number of cattle in the territory, still fur
Their decreased by recent heavy shipments, but also a
considerable falling off in the number of sheep. There
is no doubt that the public range of the territory is mar
rowing and has deteriOrated, due to overstocking. One
of the results is that the small sheep owner is following
the wake of the small cattle owner, except on the forest
reserves, and that the live stock industry of the territory
is falling into the hands of a few large concerns. 1t were
far better for New Mexico if it had ten thousand small
sheep and cattle owners rather than that the public
range be controlled by a few concerns or large individual
owners-~New Mexican.

Good Winter Pasturaae.

With the rains that have fallen during the past ten
days or two weeks throughout this entire southwestern
section of the territory, ample feed is now assured for
the thousands of head of cattle now in the country.
The rains came too late to make hay on the plains,
as is usually the case, but with what rain We have had,
good grass is now an assured fact and the cattlmen are
correspondingly happy.
II is better, perhaps, THAI there is no hay as it is al
ways a source of contention between the cattlemen and
hay cutters whenever there is hay to cut.-Deming Head

PHYSICAL ACCOMPANIMENT
TO REGAL SEPTEMBER
BY Rober Kelley Weeks

Feathery clouds are few and fair,
Thistle down is on the air,
Ripping sunshine on the lake,
Wild grapes scent the sunny brake,
Wild bees murmuring take the ear,
Crickets make the silence dear;
Butterflies float in a dream,
Over all the swallows CLEAN.
Here and yondeT, high and low,
Goldenrod and sunflowers glow,
Here and there a maple flushes,
Sumac reddens, woodbine bushes,
Purple asters bloom and thrive

article on the small farm, in the irrigated land. There is
nothing in which this city is more interested, now that it
Is supplied with an abundance Of cheap power. Exhaust
less underflow and plenty Of fertile and-thes the city
has had in its surroundings from the beginning. But
now Tor the first time in the history of Albuquerque, by
reason OF cheap electrical power, the water and the land
can be brought together at the astonishing cost Of only
one cent per thousand gallons for pumping the water.

There is plenty of commerce and labor in New Eng
land and New York, consequently the newspapers of that
section saw a good reason why there should be in the
cabinet a representative of commerce and labor, says the
FL Paso Times. But there are no gold, silver, lead and
copper mines in New york, consequently the editors of
that state can see no reason why the government should
allow a department of mining. The trouble with the New
York editors is that their patriotism and public spirit is
confined to their immediate environments. They are en-
trely ignorant of the needs and developments of the
country outside of their immediate community. New
York and New England are stupidity provincial. But some
day those fellows will broaden out and discover that the
best part Of the United States is west of the Ohio river.

Inc Las vegas Optic says: "Al parties to the con
troVersy over the disputed Bernalillo county offices seem
inclined to leave the final decision Of the matter TO the
courts. This sounds much better than the earlier talk of
Iorcloie resistance on the part of the ousted officers"
me optic has fallen into an error. There never was any
talk OF "torcible resistance either earlier or later. The
gentlemen who deny the power of the governor to re-
move them, as well as those who assert the legality of
ns appointment OF themselves, are not idiots nor are
their attorneys sinpietons. Never for a moment have
