A trip to the Mountains.

A party composed of Mr.. and
Mrs. A. B. Harnold, Misses
Dora Hallock and Mary l.. Scott,
Wallace Harnold and Tom Ram
sey left their homes on the morn
ing of July 26th for an outing
in the Manzanos. The first
night was spent in camp in the
foothills, the. journey being re-
sumed the next morning.
Camp was pitched beside one of
the numerous mountain springs,
where breakfast was prepared
and served. After having feast
ed. the party climbed one of
the higher peaks, from whose
summit $4,000 feet above sea
level, a fine view of the Rio
Grande valley, with its desolate
sands was had. The river itself,
thirty-five miles distant could
be readily seen with field glasses.
Camp was again reached about
five clock in the evening, by
which time all were ready for
another hearty meal. The even
ing was pleasantly spent in rid
ing, games and parching corn.
The next morning the trail
was again taken up, this time in
the direction of the famous Ray
ranch at the summit of the high
er peak. About ten thirty. the
Ray home was found, nestled
among the towering pines, near
a large spring of pure water.
A pleasant time was spent here
at the summit of the Manzanos,
from where one could look afar
to the west into Arizona.
On the return stops were made
at fatigue, Torreon and Manzano
where the curious old buildings,
ancient churches, springs and
apple orchard proved intensely
interesting. The sawmilI at
Manzano was thoroughly in
spected before leaving for Es-
tancia, which place was reached
late in the evening. The outing
proved interesting and enjoyable
a treat indeed from the regular
routine work.

Finding a New World

A very attentive audience
heard the lecture on Wednesday
night, Finding a New World, -
by Rev. A. M. Harkness, illus
trated with a series Of 101 stere-
opticon views. For three quar-
ters of an hour the listeners
were carried back four centuries
to the scenes when Columbus
attempted to find a new route to
the orient, and the Norsemen
made their heroic struggles to
find a more congenial place of
abode, The various expeditions
from the old world were follow
ed in picture and description
through the everglades of Flori-
da, the swamps Of Georgia and
Alabama, the tropical forests Of
Mexico, Brazil and Ecuador, the
fisheries of the great lakes and
the furriers of the far north.
Nor were the more inland eXpe-
ditions of the sons of Spain into
the territory now embraced in
the western states and terrific
ries, overlooked. The views,
which were of the very best,
drew forth words of praise on
every hand, while the lecture,
although historical, was anything
but the usual dry statement of
historical facts. Should Mr..
Hardness decide to return and
give another lecture in the future
here, he is assured a crowded
house.

four o'clock Miss Ellen T. Fos-

were joined in bonds of Holy
Matrimony at the Methodist
Church, the pastor, Rev. A. M.

friends being present.
Mr.. Milby is associated with
his brother, Arthur Milby in the
general mercantile business at

making her home with Mrs.
Arthur Milby since coming to
the valley six years ago. Both
have many friends who will
wish them unbounded joy
throughout life. May all their
troubles be 'little ones.

Wins in Land Contest.

Attorney>A. B. Renehan has
just won a substantial victory in
the general land Office at Wash
ington, in an appeal he had tax
en- from the local land office in
which the decision had been ad
verse to his clients. 1t was in
the contest Of johnson Pence,
H. B. Hawkins and j. T, Pope,
whose homesteads at Estancia,
conAicted to the extent of 146
acres with the small holding
claim of Miguel A. Otero. The
decision is interesting, because
it may cause the government to
reopen other contests which
had been decided in favor of
small holding claimants under
similar circumstances. The con-
testee will probably appeal to the
Secretary of the Interior, New
Mexican.

The company is now ready to
purchase good milling wheat,
paying therefor the highest
market price. There will be no
flour to exchange for wheat un-
til about the first of October,
but those so desiring may de
liver their wheat now and store
it, taking a due bill therefor,
which may later be exchanged
for the flour. Or the company
is ready to purchase the wheat
outright, Along the foot hills
of the Manzanos quite a bit of
wheat has been raised this year,
I'd with the mill running, there
will be no need to haul the grain

Albuquerque temperance Wor-
kers were appointed to three
of the four prominent Offices of
the New Mexico Anti-Saloon
league formed yesterday at the
Mountainair Chautauqua. D.A.
Porterfeld of the Porterfeld
company, Gold avenue was
made president; DR.. L. S.
Burton, of the Barnett building
was elected secretary, and At
torney M. E. Hickey, also of the
Barnett building, was elected
treasurer. The vice presidency
was given to John w. Corbett,
of Mountainair.
The headquarters committee
is composed as follows: Rev.
Hugh A. Cooper, of Albuquer-
que, chairman; W. G. Ogle, of
Las Vegas; Judge R. E. Lund of
Roswell, and Judge E. A, Mann,
of Albuquerque.
The meeting of the temperance
workers was the feature of the
day at the Chautauqua. The Or
ganization of a New Mexico
league was the result of aban-
doning the plan of conducting a
joint league for the two terrific
ries. This plan was found un-
satisfactory, and it was decided
that each territory should con-
tinue the fight alone.
The meeting yesterday adopt
ed resolutions thanking Rev. w.
W. Havens, superintendent of
tho joint league, for the work he
had done in New Mexico. Mr..
Havens was the pioneer tenn
perance worker of New Mexico
and Arizona. He was one of
the active workers at the meet
ing yesterday.
Besides the election of officers
a number of addresses were
made on the temperance ques-
ton. 1t was decided that the
position of superintendent of
the New Mexico league would
be rendered j. |. Seder, of Eu-
claire, Wis. Mr.. Seder is an
ardent temperance worker and a
man of experience in the work
and has been wanting to come
to New Mexico for some time on
account of the health of a son.
The meeting yesterday voted
to hold the annual meetings of
the league every year at Noun
tainair during the Chautauqua.
Mountainair has the reputation
Of being the only cold water
city in New Mexico.

phrase in Mountainair and much

Growing Good Stuff

While we hear a great deal of
talk that there will be nothing
raised in the valley this year,
and that everybody and their
neighbors will have to 60 back
to their wives folks to spend
the winter, and more such, it is
a pleasure to take a drive around
and see what is actually growing
in the valley.
B. W. Cox, whose claim is six
miles due west of Estancia has
one hundred and ten acres of
beans growing as fine as could
be wished for. The stand is
even, of a good height, and the
stalks hanging full of blooms
and small beans. To all appear
ances he will raise a bumper
crop, from which he will net a
neat sum. At fair estimate of
one thousand pounds per acre,
his crop would be 10, 900 pounds,
which at three and a half cents
per pound would bring him the
neat sum of $3.50 for his crop.
Deducting the expense of grow
ing, he would s,ln have remain
ing not less than So, 900 net, Be
sides his beans, Mr.. Cox also
has other crops growing of
which eight acres are potatoes.
and as good a promise of abun-
dant yield as any one could wish
for.
George P, Endicott, about
seven miles west of Estancia is
another who has some good
crops. The first of the week,
J. N. Bush brought in a sample
Of Endicott's millet, which was
about twenty-seven inches high,
we'll stooled and we'll headed.
Of this he has about twelve acres
besides other crops promising
good yields.
L. G. Grover and his son-in- law
Mr. Pugh both have good crops.
Mr.. Grover has just disposed of
his crop of millet seed grown
last year, about 16, 900 pounds at
4 cents per pound. From a
patch of cabbage, less than half
the size of a city block, Mrs.
Pugh last year sold cabbage and
sauerkraut to the value Of $176.
This was irrigated by a Samp-
son windmill. This year Mrs.
Pugh has as promising patch
of cabbage as one would care
to see any place.
S. w. Hightower has been
selling new potatoes in Estancia
for the past two weeks, receiv-
ing three and half cents per
pound therefor. His crops as
whole are doing satisfactorily.
Thus we could easily fill {
large space with the names Of
those who have good crops grow
ing mentioning among others
VIM. Leathers, E. C. Sterling
j. N. Bush, all in close proximity
to Estancia.
