can be askeda

For many years the Pecos Valley country was
occupied by stock ranches. Eddy county, which
is SO by l02 miles consisting, except in the rriga-
ted districts Of free government range still open TO
homesteaderl, has some Of the largest ranches in
the world. Of late years irrigation has made pos
sible farming and growing fruits and vegetables,
the feed crops being alfalfa, kaiir corn and milo
maize. Experiments prove that cotton can be
raised successfully producing from half to bale
to the acre at this altitude, S.i2i feet. Owing to
sunshine and altitude the boil weevil is unknown
and impossible.

Alfalfa

Alfalfa is very paying crop, Mr., Anderwerth
who lives about two miles from Malaga, has a
piece of alfalfa sown last year from which the first
cutting brought him nearly ten dollars per and
he will cut three or four more crops good bet
ter this year. II is safe TO say that alfalfa will
pay from forty to fifty dollars per acre each year
and that fruit will pay twice or three times AS
much.
