After making a trip over all the
country adjacent to Roswell ]. A. Bru
baker makes the announcement that
he will put in an alfalfa meal factory
in Roswell in time for next seasons
crop. That means that during the
coming winter the work of securing
the site and building, as well as the
placing of machinery will be entirely
finished. Mr.. Brubaker left this morn
ing for his home in Kansas City.
where he will organize a company at
once with a capital stock of fifty thou
sand dollars, all outside money, and
this will be put in the factory here.
The stockholders will be secured
among Mr.. Brubaker's friends, who
know what an alfalfa meal factory is
and what they are investing in.
The factory should more properly
be called a mill, for it will grind var
ious kinds of feeding stuffs. Kaffir
corn, and Indian corn will be ground
also. and much of the product of the
mill will be shipped to the island of
Cuba. The factory will start with
or 10 men in its employ.
Alfalfa meal is recommended as a
superior feed for stock of all kinds.
1t is said to be superior to bran or
shorts, by twenty-five per cent. and
even better than chops. However.
the mill will grind chops from the
Indian corn.
Thus the mill will not only supply
a good cheap feed for the local con-
sumers. but will make a good market
for over-supply. 1t will also be anoth-
er industry for Roswell. And the pro-
moter is personally interested in the
factory and does net ask a cent of
bonus or assistance by investment.
There is only one thing yet necessary
that is, that the railroads give liberal
rates.
Mr.. Brubaker is greatly pleased
with Roswell and the Pecos Valley
and may bring his family here. He
can remember the day when hay was
shipped from Kansas City to Roswell,
but he considers it a point in this
country's favor that this condition no
longer prevails. He says that after
eighteen years experience in the feed
business, and many years experience
in the alfalfa meal business. he can
say that Roswell has the brightest
outlook in this line he ever saw
This enterprise was secured for Ros
well entirely through the agency of
the Roswell Commercial Club, who
have been working for it for long
time, in a quiet way. The club took
up this proposition and brought Mr.
Brubaker here and interested him in
the Valley without calling ON private
parties so much as once. To the club
and its enterprising secretary is all
honor due.

AZ it is about time for the farmers
to begin to buy their commercial
fertilizers, perhaps few lines on the
value of same will be of interest.
Now, what We wish for everyone
to understand ie, that the value OF
guano depends alone on the amount
of plant food that it contains. The
three ingredients that are to be con-
sidered are phosphoric acid, potash
and nitrogen or ammonia. The value
of these ingredients are about a.
follows: Phosphoric acid A to 5
cents per pound, potash 5 cent per
pound, ammonia Is cents per pound
and freight from sesboard. So to
determine the value of guano find
the amount of each kind Of plant
food and multiply by the above num-
bers. Perhaps I will have something
more to say on this subject in anoth"
or letter. Lloyd.

A Bridge whist Story.

A curious story Of bridge is being
told In London. At a we'll known club
three men were trying to get up q
game when fourth, recently returned
from abroad, came into the room. They
asked the newcomer to make up the
table, which he at once consented TODD.
What points are you playing?" asked
he. "Oh, the usual 10 shillings,' was
the careless reply. "That is rather stiff
for me-" said the returned wanderer.
Il have never played higher than half
a crown, but / do not mind just for
once" AT the end of the rubber he and
his partner were 800 points to the good.
The party having then to break up, the
losers proceeded to pay the winners,
and one of them handed the newcomer
thirty five-pound notes. what is this o.
exclaimed he in astonishment. "Why,
what owe you, Of course. Ten shilling
points are ESQ hundred The reeipi-
ent gasped. why, | thought 1t was 10
shillings hundred for which we were
playing, and that is really higher than
can afford" The end of it was that he
refused to be paid more than this, and
the balance was given to charity.

Mayor German Forced to Send
Officers to Get Aldermen to
Attend Council Meeting
SPECIAL ASSESSMENT TAX
Aldermen Are Worn Out by the Com
tinued Meetings of the Council and
plead Illness for Not Being Pres
emit at the Meeting

For the first time in many years it
became necessary Tuesday night for
the mayor of the city to ask the aid Of
the police office in order to secure
suffi Gent number of the members Of
the common council for a meeting.
As the tax roll is now being made up
It was necessary for the council to
meet Tuesday night to make levy of
a special tax TO meet the assessments
due on sewers which have been ac-
cepted.
During the last two weeks there had
been three meetings of the council
and when the mayor called the spec
ia1 meeting for Tuesday evening the
aldermen began to shy. The sum
mons for the meeting was given to
the police in the afternoon, and
"Honest joe and his companions
had all sorts of trouble locating the
aldermen. When he went to their
Eplaces of business he found that the
aldermen had just left, but it is limited
that some of them had concealed
themselves in the back rooms aud in
the cellars. There was one exciting
chase on Main street to serve a sum
mons on one of the aldermen.
When the mayor reached the city
hall he was confronted with the fact
that two aldermen we're needed to
complete the number to act upon the
tax levy. The aldermen waited in.
vain and long about half past 8 the
mayor decided to take stringent u,eas-
ures and the police office was asked to
send an officer to the council room.
The officer was given summonses
for the three or four absent aldermen
and he started out. He found that
three of the men in question were too
Ill to leave their beds, but finally he
succeeded in locating Alderman u1ius
Pabst of the Fourth ward and he con-
sented to go to the meeting. With
the presence of Pabst there was a
sufficient number Of people to pass
the levy.
This work was completed as soon
as the descriptions of the property
could be read. The amount to, be
assessed as special taxes for the sew
ers is something in the neighborhood
of $4,000, but the property owners
will have five years in which to make
the payment. The first installment
of this tax will become due at the
time the regular city taxes are col
1ected.

A Novel Lawsuit.

many, and the authorities of the town
are involved In a curious struggle.
Fifteen years ago a member of the
family died, and twas decided TO en-
grave on his tombstone the words, eve
shall never see you again, yet will al

strued by the police and the ecclesiasti-
cal authorities as an open denial OF the
doctrine of the Immortality of the soul
and resurrection Of the body, and they
gave orders to have the words never

For fifteen gears the family attempted
to have the cement removed, and, fail

again exposing the offending words.
Again the town authorities plasterc,l
over the words, at a cost Of 35 cents,
and sent bill for that sum to the fam
lily. The latter declined to pay and are
being sued.-New York Tribune.

why Men Wear Mustaches.

The Gaulois Of Paris has been in
vestigating the grave question, "Why

shave, one declared that it was to hide
his teeth, another that his long nose
without 1t gave him a bad appearance

others maintained that it improved the
air they breathed, and seven were OF
the opinion that mustache was neces-
sary to health. Seventeen men were
content to state that they did 1t to
please themselves, while only two said
1t was to please their wives. About
