ed about the proposed extensions in
his part OF the Panhandle.
THE Santa Fe extension from
some point south will either pass
through Floydada or Lubbock We
expect It to strike Floydada. The
other proposition that has been talk
ed, the Llano Estacada and New Mex
leo road is not in a form to be very
definitely considered 1t is a good
proposition though.
"Floyd county is bound to have
railroad accommodation OF some
kind before long because the coun-
try justifies 1t. The business is
coming and the construction OF a line
would be a paying proposition.
There can be more railroads out
here in this Panhandle country than
most people commonly suppose. Take
the Panhandle short Line which,
hear, has begun work at Hereford.
Some people say that road will not
pay because it parallels the Santa Fe.
But II one would stop to consider,
1t would be seen that the two roads
must remain a considerable distance
apart. The Panhandle Short Line
touches an entirely different tier OF

A, Il. Carter, OF Tucumcarl N. NJ,
was here yesterday making final ar
rangements for the opening OF his
auto line between here and Tucum-
carl He had pushed the proposition
with money and energy and the
scheme is now down to a working
basis.
The line follows in the main, the
right of way OF the Rock Island ex-
tension west but will use right of
way and road OF its own. Where
ever need the road will be graded
so as to allow OF high speed by the
automobiles He has planned fence
crossing which will allow the ma
chimes to cross without checking
speed and has made sure OF every
creek crossing. One stream in New
Mexico which for a time interposed
very serious difficulties has been
spanned by substantial bridge.
Mr.. Carter now has four big cars
for the line and has a grading outfit
which will make the necessary i'm
provements. The distance is some
thing over 20 miles and. is across
a territory without railroad accom-
modations. The auto line will in
sure an increased mail service and
will give means for passenger and ex-
