Lamhing to Any Great Extent
in San Luis Valley.

Raising field peas for fattenlng
sheep and hogs for market is becom-
ing an important industry in the San
Luis Valley according to T. q. Win
ter who returned last evening from
his ranch near Monte Vista, Colorado.
He says that the prospects are very
encouraging for the year in that To-
cality. There is an abundance or
water which practically insures full
crops
Mr.. Winter went to his ranch about
a month ago to be present during
the lambing season which Is now over
in that locality. He is well satisfied
with his lamb crop which he says
amounted to 10 per cent. He mas
one thousand ewes. During the Sc
we're snow storm in April some OF
the lambs died but not as many as
he had anticipated.
Mr.. Winter has had three hundred
acres of his ranch planted in field
peas on which he will let his sheep
run in the fall. Field peas are q
profitable crop as they do not have

INDIANA IS
FOR FAIRBANKS
William B. Burford, Of indianapolis,
State Printer, Says Vice-Preside ent's
Boom is Started.

William B. Burford, state printer of
Indiana, with headquarters at Indian
apolis, spent today in this city Ell
route to Silver City where his old.
est son has been for three years for
the purpose Of regaining his health.
This was Mr.. Burford's first visit to
Santa Fe and he was glad that he
stopped here and became acquainted
with the great climate, the magnifi-
cent scenery surrounding and the
many historical attractions in this
city.
81 have had very pleasant day in
deed" said Mr.. Burford, to a repre-
sentative of this paper" You have the
Quaintest and most interesting little
town in the country; your climate Is
OF the best and your scenery is grand
I have seen great deal here that
has interested me very much and l
only wish that ! could stay longer
"The Indianans are for Charles
Warren Fairbanks, the present vice
president OF this great country, for
the Republican nomination for the
Presidency and we will do all we can
to succeed. ! think we will, for you
know, as you are evidently a student
of political history that these Hoos-
lers are no slouchers when it comes
to politics. During my time as citi-
zen of the state have been in every
one of It's ninety-five counties and In
many of them before railroads had
to make lengthy horseback trips. I
know our people. In my opinion the
Republican tide is setting towards
Fairbanks and if the party nominates
him he will be elected. Originally
am from Missouri, practically l am
a Hoosier and we want a Hoosier for
President of the United States. I
had something to do with Ben Harri-
sons nomination in 1883 and ! hope
to be able to do something for Charlie
FAIRBANKS next year.
Mr.. Burford is especially interested
in Santa Fe, as his father Miles w.
Burford, was Santa Fe trail trader
in the early fifties and made several
trips from Westport to this city, to
Pixies Peak and to Denver during
the early days.
His brother, Wesley B. Burford,
now resident Of Indianapolis and
retired from business, paid his frs.
visit to Santa Fe in 1856, being then
employed as teamster on an OK
train hauling merchandise from West
port landing to the New Mexico cap
ital.
Mr.. Burford was a caller at the Of
fice of the New Mexican and procured
literature descriptive Of The Terri
tory. He will have nothing but good
to say of the Sunshine Territory in
the future and will advise his friends
when they go on vacation to spend
their time and money In sunny New
Mexico where they can do so very
pleasantly in every way.

HAGENBkRTH SURRENDERS
OPTION ON LUDWIG

just before leaving Los Angeles for
Mexico the other day Frank J. Hagen
barth, who recently purchased the Sl,O0o,-
90 option on the famous Ludwig copper
mine. at NeringtOn, Nevada, notified his
associates here that he had decided 10
give up the proposition. The news was
verified by j. ID. Wood yesterday after
noon. 1t was generally understood that
Nj Hagenbarth had paid $4,000 20 the
original holders for the option and he
stated before leaving here, that If the
report of his experts held up to the esti-
mates of those who had previously sam
pied the mine he would certainly buy IT.
The reports stated that there was S2,O0o.-
600 worth of ore blocked ont in the mine
down to the COO level. 1t was reported at
the time of the transfer of the option 10
Hagenbarth that he had jumped in just
a few hours ahead of Amalgamated IL
terests, which had expressed a desire to
get the property. II is thought here that
Mr. Hagenharth surrendered the PROPOSE
tion TO some one that wanted it badly
enough to pay him well for it.

ting tests made on the ores in this city.
While making these tests, it is said, a
new metal has been discovered in the ore
that is four times as valuable as gold,
and the ore treated here is said to have
carried about $50 a ton in this new metal
whatever il may be. The Cobalt ores are
of such a character that the full values
are not obtained by the usual methods OF
smelling and the results attained mere
are declared to have been little short OIL

1t is true that ores from the Nipissing
mines have been treated in a testing plant
in this city. That fact, though carefully
guarded leaked out several weeks ago,
but it was utterly impossible to get even
