From New Mexico.

Portales, New Mexico, Oct. 21. Dear News: Three days rain gives New Mexico people the blues, or at least keeps them in doors and makes everything seem stale. The pure air We breathe here makes confinement very burdensome. All life enjoys sun- shine in this altitude.
 Our crops here are all We ought to expect. Corn, kaffir corn, eane, maize and, well. waternel- ons and sweet potatoes, are ahead of any l ever saw. One man weighed q load oi twenty four melons that averaged 6l ' pounds, the largest weighing 677 pounds. But that k not up with Arkansas. Cousin John Sanders, north of Fayetteville, who k here on visit to Mir. and Mrs. Hughes, and also to see his first grand child, tells of | melon at Fayetteville that weighed S4 pounds. So Arkansas can do us on our strongest point, water melons.
 Cotton will market about | bale per acre, as judged by peo- pie that know cotton.
 Jeff Mullins, Jim, Tom and Shannon Clark are very busy har- vesting their crop of feed stuff of about 140 acres. WeZhaye our little crop of 16 acres of maize in the shock and ready to haul to the stock yard. l am not famil- jar with this kind of feed. but 1t looks good, and horses. cattle and pigs like 1t and do well. Our chickens are flourishing, lots of eggs, and we attribute It to the kind of feed we use. By the way, l received four very fine Rhode Island Red chickens from W. NJ. Shofner, of Wesley, and will expect the premium this fall when we have our annual fair here, though this strain of birds are very popular here and will be closely contested by people who have been here longer than we.
 l was extremely proud to hear of Jack Phillips success with his peach orchard A good lesson of staying with 1t. The orchards that are here look very fine for their age. Not many trees over four years old, but prospects were good for nice lot of apples un- til the late freeze in the spring.
 An indication of good health, or of scarce grub, comes from Jeff Mullins and Shannon Clark Tom Mullins and others visited tie lakes on tile plains and got 5S ducks. Fourteen of these ducks were cooked at Mr. Mul- lins' m one day and all eaten. Counting Jim Mullins little girl there were seven to eat, average of two ducks each. Let cousin John have the biggest watermel- on, so we can keep our appetites.
 Glad to know that B. F. John son, IT,. IS able to be about and care for the business at the depot. Of course Dick Crum will help him all he can and there IS no better help around the little town than Dick. C. w. Mabry of Lowell, Ark, who IS here look ing after his quarter section has just called on us. Says If he had patent to the section of land lie and his boys filed on he would not take o1o,0o0 for 1t.
