WITH CONSIDERATION.

$40 acres Of patented land, of
which 40 acres has been laid off
into a townsite called Puerto, SO
miles from here; half of said 40
acres is owned by another party.
Also a school section of $40 acres,
Of which the party has a four
years government lease which, as
you understand, can be renewed at
the expiration of that time.
The $40 acres spoken of is also
we'll fenced; the properties have
three wells and two windmills on
them, with abundance of water and
one metal tank which holds 1900
gallons and also a splendid trough
at one of the wells. The party has
on this property a store 20 x 40
feet with $4,000 worth of merchan-
disc, one splendid six room house,
out houses, a corral, a great num-
Der Of cedar posts, 40 head of
thoroughbred hogs, IS head of
cattle and all kinds Of farming i'm
plements except a lister, The
party who owns the store is Post
Master at Puerto and who ever
buys it, will probably get his
place. The owner who went out
there four or five years ago, we
are reliably informed has made
$4,000 or $4,000 without any
thing to start with. He has taken
a notion though, that he will 60 to
Old Mexico and has listed the
property before mentioned, with
US, at $1,000. We feel sure that
it is worth $4,000 at the lowest
price.
This property is SO situated that
if the proposed railroad from Tex
leo to this town is built, the en-
gineers will be compelled to come
right through Puerto in order to
get over what is known as Cap
Rock" We feel that it is almost
a certainty that this road will be
built and if SO, this property will
be worth ar enormous amount.
If you buy this property, it would
be a good investment and give you
a base of operation right in one of
the best farming districts of New
Mexico. This property a also
be purchased in parts.

Vernon Bailey, of the forest reserve
bureau at Washington, who has been
making an investigation OF the raw.
ages Of wolves on the ranches Of the
southwest. reports that in a certain
part Of New Mexico he learned that .
moderate estimate Of the stock killed
by four wolves of which he got trace
was yearling Gov or a calf every
three days. or approximately 100 head
OF cattle to each wolf. Counting all
as calves" says Mr.. Bailey, at the
low rate of $40 head, each wolf
would at this rate cost the ranchmen
N,OC0 a year. This estimate Of 81 900
for the four wolves leaves out of con-
sideration the five to ten hungry of.
