FILED PAPERS
In BANKRUPTCY
Juan c.. Jaramillo Forced to take
Advantage of Statute in
Regard to Bankrupt

Juan C. Jaramillo, of Torreon,
N. M. has filed papers in bank
ruptcy in the District Court, at
Alamogordo, this week. For the
past thirteen years Mr.. Jaramillo
has been engaged in the mercan,
tile business at Torreon, having
begun in 1905, with capital of
$3.50. borrowed money. Within
two years he had repaid this
amount, and had a neat surplus
besides.
On the night of December 9th,
1907 fire destroyed his building
and stock, with no insurance.
Previous to this time he had car
ried a stock of several thousand
dollars, and had the reputation
of paying his debts dollar for dol
lar Just after the fire he made ar
rangements with his creditors for
the payment of all his indebted
ness on an apparently agreeable
basis, and re-opened the business.
All went we'll for almost nine
months, until a recent disagree
mant with one of the creditors,
necessitated him declaring him
self a bankrupt, in order to pro
tect his creditors equally.
Had this step not been forced
upon him just at this time, Mr..
Jaramillo is Of the opinion that
within a short time he would
have been able to pay every cent
he owed, as his business was good
from month to month.

School Opens

Next Monday is the day the
Smal. boy hates to see come
arc, ar y.aa he must hunt
together MS books and start
for school for the winters work
something the average small boy
doesnt have any extra love for
the end Of vacation time.
The board has made arrange
ments to secure the building
of the Church of'Christ for school
purposes until the new school
building can be erected. The
corps Of teachers are experienced
in their work and will give to
Estancia the best term of school
ever held here Prof. w. R. Shell
ton will be assisted by Miss Del
la Roberts, Miss Minnie Laws
and Miss Annie Collins in the
work.
1t is hoped that work on the
new building will be begun in the
not far distant future, as a more
cOmm0dious structure is an alb
soIute necessity. Estancia and
vicinity have grown so rapidly
and the number of school children
increased faster than it has been
possible to erect school buildings.
The building which two years
ago was ample, cannot now ac-
comodate half the pupils The
bond issue carried without a dis
senting vote in the recent cleo
ton, and the board will shortly
have the funds derived from the
sale Of the bonds with which to
erect a commodious and modern
structure for school purposes,
ample for some years to come,

Will Rebuild
with Brick

Arrangements have about been
completed for the construction of
a brick block of not less than six
store-rooms and perhaps eight,
to replace the buildings destroy
ed by fire on Saturday morning
Of two weeks ago. With the zeal
of the Estancians, talk of re-
building was commenced almost
before the fire was extinguished,
and the result will be a modern
brick business block, Of which
any city may well be proud.
1t now appears probable that

covered that it is the only origi-
nal and genuine home of the
Irish potato. Potatoes are being
harvested in the valley at the
present time, some of them
measuring ten inches long. Last
year tentative experiments were
tried in the planting of potatoes
with Indifferent results, This
year the planting was done with
care and the tubers carefully
tended. The result has surprls-
ed every resident of the valley
for the potatoes have grown
riotously and in profusion, with
out irrigation. The soil in the
valley has been proven conclu-
sively to be ideal for the raising
not only of potatoes but OF beets,
sugar beets, onions and in Fact
every variety of root. " Potato
raising has proven so successful
that next year the valley far
mers everywhere will plant pota-
toes. potatoes, little else but po-
.
tatoes. S. w. HightoWer, living
a few miles vest of Estancla,
will have a crop this year of over
one thousand bushels from some
five acres of land.
Manager O. W. Lasater. OF the
Hughes Mercantile company's S
store at Moriarty, says that pota-
toes grown in this district are far
superior to the best grown about
Greeley or elsewhere in Colorado.
we are getting our supply Of
potatoes even now from the home
farms and are not shipping any
in said Mr.. Lasater, The Es-
tancia valley will compete at the
Irrigation congress for prizes for
potatoes against the farmers Of
the irrigated lands y
Down at Willard all the mer-
chants are buying their spuds
fresh from the soil. 1t is said
that at least a trainIoad Of the
tubers will be shipped out Of the
valley in addition to those used
fo home consumption. Next
year it is predicted this section
will ship out potatoes to the mar
kets Of the whole southwest.
Potatoes even grow wild in the
valley and when cultivated they
will yield from $50 to 200 bushels
to the acre. Long live the home
ly though nourishing Irish pota-
to and long may it wave, The
Estancia valley it is confidently
believed has hit upon basis Of
permanent prosperity
Sugar beets grown hereabout
it is claimed, carry five per cent
more saccharine matter than they
will on irrigated ground. Onions
do extremely well and in fact all
kinds Of similar vegetables fou-
rish like the green bay tree, as
do Mexican beans which thrive
everywhere.
Wheat and corn are found to
do better here each year as the
soil gets more cultivation. The
new Touring mill at Mcintosh is
all ready for the installation of
the machinery and will be in op-
GRAFTON by the first of October.
One-third of the grain which
goes through the. mill will'come
from Estancia valley farms. The
capacity.of the plant will be 100
barrels per day
Twelve hundred bushels of a
special variety of wheat has
been brought in to Mcintosh to
be planted for next years s crop.
In another year it is believed
there will be enough wheat rails
ed in the valley for expectation.
A new company has been or
ganized and the drilling of what
it is hoped will be an artesian
well is being rapidly prosecuted
