ber of the Chamber of
Commerce to Work
GET BUSY RIGHT OFF
FL Paso Heard Says We're
All Boosters. Now Let's
Prove il.

FrOVe IL.
Deming has q positive realty in n
living, moving, active Chamber of
Commerce. Everybody says it is a
winner and what everybody says
ought to be so.
The officers and board If directors
are all good men and will work
tooth and nail to make things move,
but they must have the earnest and
every day cooperation of every
member of the organization from
the least unto the greatest.
The whole town ought to act as n
boosting machine, not to give infor-
nation that is misleading or unrcli-
able. hut that Is in keeping with
what we have to offer intelligent
people who want to better their
condition and live in the best climate
Uncle Sam has to offer anywhere in
his domain.
To give an idea of what outside
newspapers think Of our Chamber
of Commerce we herewith quote a
portion of the FL Paso Hcarld's
story of our organization, as follows:
Hustling Deming has organized n
chamber of commerce. A feeling
has gradually been growing that
Deming, while thriving and pro-
gressive community, was not max
ing its resources known in the out
side world as we'll as it should.
About three weeks ago, few
of the more aggressive among the
business men. called the people of
the town and surrounding valley to-
gether at an informal meeting to
discuss the forming of an organiza-
ton of some sort and n committee
was appointed to draft articles Of
organization and suggest n plan
upon which to act. This committee
reported at a banquet arranged for
the "get-together-boosters" and
their plan, which was that of organ
izing n permanent chamber of COM
merce, was enthusiastically cndors-
ed and adopted without dissenting
vote.
Before getting down to the more
serious business of actual organiza-
ton, DR.. s. ID. Swopc, who acted as
toastmaster, started the ball rolling
with trite statement of facts con-
cerning the things Deming had not
done in the past and things which
he hoped they would do in the future
by means of the organization pro-
posed.
The first speaker introduced was
John NJ. McTccr, who took as his
subject "A dvcrtising." Mr..
McTeer made n very forccful talk
and outlined some excellent methods
which the new chamber of commerce
should pursue in its efforts to gain
publicity.
C, j. Laughren followed with a
talk on industries and how to secure
them. Mr.. Laughrcn in the course
of his remarks said that Deming
could double its population in the
next two years by merely pulling
together, with the good of the town
as the one object in view, and quot
ed DR.. Douglas of the Copper Queen
as stating that Deming was the log
ical point, both geographically anC
geographically, for the reduction

OUR GRAND OLD MAN.

Wednesday night at Shorter church
a huge crowd listened to the Grand
Old Man of the Negro race in the
person of Bishop Turner of Atlanta.
while for two hours and a half he held
his listeners spellbound with his elo-
quence in discoursing on the intel
lectual progress of the race. and while
gems of knowledge and thought scin-
tillated amid the torrent of forceful
exposition of the cause of our race.
The ovation given the Bishop was
magnificent The impress which he
made on his hearers will linger long.
A few brief hours only did he linger
here, the guest of Rev. Ward, coming
Wednesday and leaving Thursday. He
arrived from Pueblo accompanied by
Rev. Bell, who had been his host 1t

AS regards the price of butter, IN
the autumn of 1908 the weather was
so dry, and the spring of 1909 so
late and also dry, that crops of grass
were no more than half their usual
quantity Today hay is selling at
$50 per ton; the same hay has been
sold often for So to $14.
There are many other crops that
suffered from this abnormal condi-
ton of the weather; hence a lessen
ed supply. | think consideration of
these facts-I suppose they are facts,
since they have been taken from
government returns-may help to ac-
count for some of the present prices.
The production Of apples in
United States has fallen from 68,-
900, 900 barrels, in 1896, to 21 ,O00,-
900 in 1909; the latest reports from
Florida and California give so per
cent damage to the orange and
grape fruit crops owing to frost.
