RAPID RECLAMATION
 OF NEW MEXICO LANDS
Country Filling Up With Dry Farmers and Private Irrigation Pro-
 jects Multiplying.

Leslie Gillett who has called Phoenix his home for a great many years even though he hasn't used the town much for that purpose for long time past. dropped in yesterday to spend the hol- idays with friends and relatives. His vacation extends to January |
 Sir. Gillett came here from Fl Paso though his headquarters as engineer of the twelfth field division of the land office. are at Santa Fe, N. M. He says New Mexico has been entertaining the coldest weather in twenty years as 1t has been in the neighborhood of zero in the northern part of the territory. most of the time for sorne weeks past.
 Speaking of the territory at large he says it is developing very rapidly. The eastern third of the territory is liter ally plastered with homesteads enter ed by people who are experimenting extensively with dry farming theories. Several sections are also under devel- opment by the use of pumping plants. notably the north extension of the Roswell artesian belt and around Dem ing. along the Mimbres river. or rath the old river bod The proved pump ing area there is about eighteen miles square but undoubtedly it extends much further and the depth at which water is found varies from eight to sixteen feet.
 Since the passage of the bill allowing the operation of the Carey act in the two territories there have been appli- cations for perhaps 2O0.000 acres of desert land for number of different private irrigation projects. The idea of reclamation by private irrigation projects of one kind and another. seems to be d growing one and many are under way in New Mexico.
 Asked if New Mexico still wanted statehood MT. Gillett replied in the af firmative saying the answer should be written in box car letters.
