you may believe such a state
ment to be without foundation,
isn't it worth the while of all who
are striving to improve their
methods to investigate such a
challenge, and if found true after
fair test practice it and preach
it to your neighbors, or if false
declare it's fallacy to the unsus-
pecting? But some may say
their farms on the Plains are
producing excellent crops under
present standards. While it is
true that the Panhandle is rapid
ly coming to the front as a farm
ing region, yet it is nevertheless
true that the country generally
is not producing crops year in
and year out that will place it in
the front ranks as a SAFE farm
ing proposition. have no doubt
that even this years experience
will lead you to admit the cor
rectness of this assertion. | re-
peat that if your experience bears
out this statement it is time that
those who have homes on the
Plains try something that will
better crop conditions.
| believe that reverence is due
the farmer who has come to this
western country and is striving
at great expense to himself
and family to develop the great
resources of this vast region, for
to redeem a farm from this so
called desert means more to the
country than to win u battle in
any war. | fear that in many
instances the relation which the
true farmer sustains to the ulti-
mate prosperity of this western
country has not been properly
appreciated by those engaged in
other lines of endeavOr, who, fol-
lowing a peculiar trait of human
nature, feel that their particular
line is the one indispensable to
the development Of the country.
The business mans prosperity
has in many instances been the
result of reaping profits from the
sale of his goods to the farmer
who was spending the money
which he earned before coming
to this country, in improving his
land preparatory to farming
here, and not a result of the re-
turn of the money from the act
ual crop productions of the land
upon which he is now striving
for a living. This may be eSpe
cially true of conditions here in
New Mexico But at any rate it
is time that we come to appreci
ate the part that the farmer is
contributing to the development
of this new country.
But to get back to my subject.
| suggest that every reader of
this article secure copy of Mr..
Campbell's Manual of Soil Cult
ure and acquaint themselves with
its contents. If you do not care
to follow his method you will at
least find many scientific facts
about this soil of ours that are
perhaps new to anyone who
reads them for the first time in
this manual, though they may
have been facts for thousands of
years. | would further suggest
that The News secure copies of
this manual, and, if desired, offer
them at cost as Il clubbing com
bination with the paper. This is
being done here with the result
that all of the farmers are get
ting copies who want them. The
price of the manual is soc.
Before | close | cannot refrain
from saying a few things about
our western towns which may be
taken for what they are worth.
1t is not entirely out of line with
my subject. | have found by a

REPORT OF POOR AGENTS.
To the Honorable, the County Board of
Pierce County:
Your Poor Agents respectfully submit
the following report of matters pertain
ing to the poor farm for the year end
ing Sept 80, 1907.
At our first quarterly meeting held Dec.
S0th, 1906, we, as instructed by the Co.
Board, made and placed on permanent
record an inventory of all stock, grains,
farm implements, etc., on county farm,
together with values of each; we also
provided the farm superintendent with a
book ruled and arranged for keeping a
daily record of meals furnished the SUI
perintendent's family, inmates, and visit
ors at the farm. We Also at this meeting
hired Michael Nugent as superintendent
of the farm. his term of Office to begin
April 1st, 1907 A large majority of the
members of the County Board Of 1906
favored this selection as evidenced by
their letters now on file with the clerk
of the Poor Agents.
Tt is the opinion of the County Attorney
that no portion of the pension drawn by
VIM. Graham, a county charge, can be
appropriated to the use of the county
without the consent of the owner which
ne refuses to give.
Your agents would respectfully call the
attention of your honorable body to the
rapid increase in transient aid granted
local paupers in the county during the
past four years. In 1908. the amount
granted was S69S11 In 1906 the aggre-
gate was 81, s246S. an increase of nearly
100 per cent in three years. The amount
granted the present year as per financial
statement is:
Undoubtedly the S1.O0 week aid is
helpful to a number of worthy people
who might otherwise become entire
charges on the county; but on the other
