TRUCK FARMING IN
THE PEcos VALLEY

From Lakewood Progress.
The Lakewood commercial club last
Wednesday evening had under discus
sion, "Tne benefits and profits to be
derived from truck farming" A.num-
Der of splendid speeches were mane
by those who had had considerable
experience along this line. 1t was the
sense of the Club that no % of farm
ing was as profitable as truck farming
where it could be carried on success
fully and where a market could be
found for the products.
1t mas been clearly demonstrated
that no section of the world produces
more vegetables to the acre than the
Pecos Valley, and as to quality and
flavor, it is a conceded fact that the
products of this section are far super
ior to all others The finest favored
cantaloupes in the world are grown
in the Pecos Valley and they always
command a fair price.
Tomatoes, cabbage, onions, celery,
radishes, turnips and many other va
rieties simply grow to perfection here
II are all paying crops.
The club appointed a committee to
take up the matter of freight rates
with the railroads and express COM
| panies, and eldeavor to secure re-
duced rates for these products and
we are sure that a satisfactory agree
| nhent can be reached. And if not,
/ the truck farmer can successfully pre-
serve his surplus of vegetables for fu-
ture use and sale. We are reliably
Informed that some of u merchants

Mr.. Boyd VINO lives only a few miles

Let those who are in a position to
engage in truck farming think over
this matter, and we will later an
noulce the result of the committee
work as to rates and securing a mark
ct for these products.

time to allow mis- name to be cohsid-

editor of the Record formed a con-

accept the nomination. There was no

not Mr.. Denni1g refused to run. Mr..

The dead:

 Two trackmen at work clearing away the snow about 200 yards from the scene of the accident were knock ed down, one of them sustaining a broken leg and the other a fractured hip. The depot, Methuchen Pharmacy. the pharmacy of George Hahn and the postoffice were set on fire by fall ing coals.
 Awakened sleepers thought an earth quake was the cause and many of them left their homes clad In night attire.

MYSTERY LIES IN
 CARE GIVEN <. HANNA
Injured, Miner Was Taken To
 Upper Lowell Lodging House and No Trace of Men Who Brought Him There.

ho are the men who took charge of R. H. Hanna, when that man was struck by Bert Gemehle in the alter cation of last Tuesday night, and where did they go after placing him in an Upper Lowell lodging house. are questions that are sorely puzzling some of the officers of Lowell.
 There fs nothing in evidence to show what became of Hanna after he had been struck by Gemehle. nor what became of him in the interim ; between the time he was laid out by a blow and the time he was brought into the Lowell lodging house. All that is known of that part of the case is that Hanna was brought in there by two men who did not give their names, and whose only explana- tion of their part in bringing the in jured man to that particular house was that they thought he lived there.~ Ess H
 The next point in the case that forms any valuable link to the officers is the discovery of the mans real condition by Dr. Bailey, of the c. < A. staff of physicians. who had been called there to attend him. His re- moval to the hospital. where he still lies, fighting for his life, which hangs by slender thread, was al the sug- gestion of pr. Bailey.
 The officers suspect that all Is not quite right in the Hanna case, and are desirous of getting in touch with the two men whose identity still remains unknown and whose part in the af- fair seems mysterious.
 That Hanna, badly injured as he was, should be taken so far from the place where his injury occurred and his condition remain unknown to a doctor until late hour the follow ing morning. impels the officers to believe that foul play may have fig ured in the matter. Every effort is being made to ferEet out the two men who are still in the back grouns Their presence in the case might serve to throw an entirely different light on it than now exists.
