inal assault possible was made Tues

Just One Little "For Instance"
IAN instance of how the Pecos Val

one of my periodical business trips,
1 was in Artesia, which then consist
ed of a store or two. There was no
hotel, and the night l was there, l
slept on the counter of the store, us
ing a blanket as a bed. Today the
place contains between 1900 and
1000 inhabitants. There are several
hotels, a bank, modern schools, plen-
ty of business houses and many neat
and comfortable residences. Instances
of this kind one can find often in
the Pecos Valley, and as l go farther
west they are also in evidence, as
for instance at Estancia and at other
places in Torrance, Guadalupe and
Quay counties"

the staple a good deal of his time,
especially in h summer months. To
a representative Of the New Mexi-
can, Mr.. Dunn said:
Il estimate the wool output of this
Territory for the present year at be
Neen twenty-five ard thirty MILLIONS
of pounds and probably more. The
New Mexico product is considered a
very good grade. The quality is i'm
proving yearly and so is the clip,and
so is the quantity of the clip. A
number of wool w this year are
holding back for higher price, there
fore the sales up to date have not
been as large as they have in prev
ious years. However, 1 have made
considerable purchases in Otero, Lin
coin, Guadalupe, Terrence, Quay,
Chaves and Eddy counties and am
still looking for more worlds to con-
quer in the wool line. Ordinarily the
wool purchasing season would be at
an end about now, but l find this year
it will nave to be extended for a
much longer period as l have asceT-
tanned that in the counties along the
Chicago, Rock Island. Railroads there
are still between three and Jour mil
lions of pounds of wool unsold. At
the stations at Corona, Pasture, and
Tucumcari, the railroad ware houses
are full of wool awaiting purchasers.
This is nearly all wool in the grease
although the Tucumcari securing mill
is working quite actively securing
wool for the market.
Sheep Growers Have Plenty of Money
The sheep growers in the eastern
nalf of New Mexico from the northrn
to the Southern lines have been very
prosperous and nave money to spare
for the present needs, hence their
holding out for higher prices.
I'm my frequent travels, especially
during the last three years in eastern
New Mexico, l nave found that the
country is settling very rapidly and
the most recent phase is in the Els
tancia Valley, where 1 am agreeably
surprised at the class of people and
their number who have settled and
are coming there, permanent citizens.
In southeastern New Mexico, in
Chaves and Eddy counties,
there are also many immigrants ar
they represent a very good
of people, have money to spare:
and to start with, and r evidently
very industrious, hard working and
know what they are about. In the
Valley, in Chaves County prop
ar, and within "a distance of from
to ten miles of the Pecos Riv-
er, lands have appreciated very. mucn
in value during the last few years So
that today they are held at what may
considered high figures, althougkh
