ton and did not properly cult
vate the soil.
The Lyon Bros. Co., will send
an expert here at its own eX-
pense, whose duty will be to
give personal instruction to each
man who plants melons, begin
ming with the proper preparation
Of the land, extending through
the planting, irrigation, and in
Guiding the picking and packing
of the melons.
Mr.. Saunders also called at
tention to the advantage of a
fruit growers association, as by
this businesslike method the
fruits are properly picked,
handled and packed and are
placed in refrigerator ears and
hurried to the best market where
they are sold at top prices. He
also stated that Alamogordo had
Il very much better and faster
freight service than either Rocky
Ford, Colo, or Brawley, Cal, and
that this increased facility alone
was Il valuable factor in prices
secured. The object of Messrs.
Lyon Brothers is to establish the
cantaloupe industry in the Ala
mogordo valley in order that it
will supply a missing period be-
tween July Is, when the Cali
fornia crop ceases, and August
25, at which time the Rocky Ford
crop begins to move.
Mr.. Saunders made Il careful
investigation Of the soil condi-
tions around Alamogordo, and
pronounced the soil as being as
fine as the Imperial valley of Cali
fornia and much superior to the
Rocky Ford conditions.
Much enthusiasm and genuine
interest was shown at the meet
ing and after the address by Mr..
Saunders, the Alamogordo Fruit
Growers association was organ-
lied with W. r. Edison, pres
ident, J. d. Clements, secretary
and W. l.. Allard, treasurer.
Mr.. Edison, Mr.. Ricketts, and
Mr.. McFate. each made an offer

was that at the end of the time
mentioned he had only succeed
ed in washing his field full of
gullies four feet deep, had plow-
ed around in the mud for hours,
worked himself to death, lost
his patience, his religion, his
money paid for water and also
lost his enthusiasm about farm
ing. Under the regulations es-
tablished for the future, this
condition can not exist, as the
man with poorly prepared field
will be the loser, rs his proper
ouautity Of water will be turn
ed to his fields just long enough
for a properly prepared field to
be irrigated, and, lat the appoint
ed time, off goes the water, re-
rardless Of whether the man has
irrigated all or only one-third Of
his field. This arrangement
must be made and carried out

Last Saturday, November Is,
was Il day for Alamogordo which
will go down in history as the
turning point in the progress and
Importance of the town.
In response to Il call for Il pub
lie meeting OF the farmers and
fruit growers OF the AlamOgordo
valley, 50 interested and earnest
men assembled in the rooms of
the Alamo Business Mems club
and organized the Alamogordo
Fruit Growers association, the
primary object Of which is the
scientific culture of cantalOupes.
W. \. Saunders, representing
the Lyon Bros. Co., of New
York, the firm which controls
the majority Of the cantaloupe
crops in the United States, was
present and delivered Il very in
teresting and instructive address
on the subject of raising and
marketing cantaloupes.
Mr.. Saunders cited as Il recent
example Of the success which at
tends careful and scientific rails
ing of cantaloupes, the results
Of the Brawley Melon associa-
tion Of the Imperial valley in
California. This association put
in their first crop Of cantaloupes
the'past summer and had Il total
of 2GO acres planted. The asso-
citation received for the crop the
sum Of $7l, ,723, or an average of
1865 per acre, the following table

No MORE WASTE OF WATER
csmpaHy VIII Guard AGAINST Misuse Of
Water Next Year.
NEW RULE MEETS WITH APPROVAL

III COuhCINipii WIN Nlt tnlllu-
siasm and earnest determination
shown in the formation of the
Alamogordo Fruit Growers as
sociation, the question of water
for irrigation comes up. Where
will the water be taken from?
What quantities will be availa
Bile? What will it cost? What
will the regulations be? and
many other questions, have been
in the minds of the members Of
the association, and the News is
clad to be able to make a def
mite statement covering the sew
eral points Of doubt.
In the first place, every drop
of available irrigation water will
be made to do its duty, after the
first of next year, and none will
be wasted. The plans of the
Improvement company, which
owns all of the irrigation water,
have been perfected, and pro-
vide for an equal and just distri-
button of water for all who want
it. Next year the irrigation
will be under systematic and
businesslike regulations. Each
man who wants water for irriga-
ton will be required to file be-
fore March /, 1908, an applica-
ton stating the number Of acres
for which he will want water.
The only applications that will be
received after the date named
will be the newcomers who were
their not here in time to make
application prior to March |.
\ maximum rate of $40 an
acre for the year will be charg-
ed. or in some instances where
less water might be wanted, Il
fiat rate of SO many dollars per
acre, per irrigation. will be ar
ranged.
Headgates will be built in the
main bitches where a water user
takes water from the main ditch.
These gates will be arranged for
setting and locking at various
rates of flow, and exactly enough
water for Il proper and ample IT.
rgation will be delivered at Il
requested time through this
headgate. When the determin-
ed amount of water has been de-
livered, the gate will be closed
and locked and the water cut off &.
In this manner no one Will be
kept waiting and all will secure
the water they need and at the
time wanted. Heretofore the
method of irrigation has been
very amateurish, and very waste
full. A man would apply for
water to irrigate ten acres, the
water would be delivered to him
through an opening in the side
of the main ditch, without check
or headgate, and the water LETT
running for days and days (and
nights and still the applicant
did not have his ten acres wet
all over. We know Of one ac-
tual instance where almost the
entire flow Of the In Luz ditch
water was turned out for irriga-
ting ten acres, and this man had
oceans of water coming his way
for six days and five nights, and
still he didn't irrigate more than
half of the ten acres. The en-
tire trouble was in the fact that
his field was very poorly prepar-
ed, lands between borders had
not been leveled, and the result

cans don't go quite that far In admit
ting themselves to be the plant
dupes. They only call it sunfloWer,
They mean by that name, though
quite as much as the other names i'm
ply. The belief is general among
six nations that the sunfower turns
with the sun and always faces the
luminary.
Gas matter of fact, there Is only
one flower that turns or keeps with
the sun, namely the sun spurge. -
