Dear Sir-Your wire of the 1fth,

the importance and benefit to New
Mexico Of the Irrigation congress at
Albuquerque. reached Silver city
during my absence at the Mimbres
Hot Springs. so that it did not come
TO my notice until today upon my re-
turn.
1t Is gratifying to me to learn that
the next meeting Of the congress Will
be held i'm New Mexico. and in my
opinion It is something upon which
the whole people of the territory
should be congratulated. IL Is al
most impossible to estimate the bene-
ht that will ensue from the full and
free discussion of irrigation and the
education that will result. and this Is
more especially true In New Mexico,
where there is so much public land
ready to give forth its hidden wealth
when properly developed. We have
in New Mexico an abundance of land,
a soil which Is rich and highly pro-
d%uctive: we have also plenty of water,
and all that is needed to make this
land as fertile as any In the United
states Is the necessary capital TO build
the irrigation projects and the neces-

ready market at home for all that we

great work for the people OF the ter

is my personal knowledge that very

movement are authority for the
statement that more than half the
nation is now under prohibition

Cedar for Logged Off Lands.

Hon. John Mimic, the pioneer resi-
dent Of this city, believes the tree
with which to reforest the logged-off
lands of the great Tillamook country
is the Port Orchard cedar, says the
Salem Statesman. Within few
years there will be tens of thousands
of acres of these logged-off lands.
One of the oldest Port orchard cedar
trees in oregon, outside of the ma
tive district, is in Salem, at the Min
to home.
Mr.. Minto has been saving the
seeds from this tree, until he has quite
small quantity Of the seed on hand
and he will give a small quantity of
the seed to any one who will apply
for 1t, with the intention of planting
1t in a proper place.

A conservative estimate of the
amount of grain raised in the coun-
try tributary to Walla Walla during
the past season, according to prom
inent grain dealer of the city, weuld
be placed at 100000 bushels. Out
of this amount S,500,O00 bushels have
been sold and of this 100000 BUSH
els about 100000 have been ship
ped the other 100000 bushels which
still remains in the hands of the far
mers.
An average price for the grain sold
would be 20 cents per bushel. This
means that $2,450,O00 has been
brought into the country tributary to

Throwing away what one has is
not always the only way to lose a
fortune. Being unable to see an op-

1t, is more often the cause Of losing

too sluggish to make the best Of time
