While there was no adoption of any
specific kind of a smudAa pot. the
meeting as a whole seemed To favor
the 1routman over the other two pots
shown and reported on because it is
the smallest and cheapest. n coni
ditions here make it evident that a
small pot is all that is needle in the
Pecos Valley. where a killing frost
never lasts more than an hour and
where a three or four hours burning
on cold mornings would give absolute
safety to fruit. The Hage1man test
at South Spring of the Troutman pot
last winter having resulted favorably,
the fruit men seemed to have more
confidence IN it. The plan of buying
a big pot and filling it for several bur
nings was not favored because the
test showed that after the first burn
ing much of the volatile matter would
b" burned out of the oil and the re-
mainder could not be lighted the sec
ond time without treatment. 1t was
figured that there was no need of
putting money into a big pot when a

ALL THE OLD DIRECTORS
REELECTED BY FRUIT MEN.

The annual election of directors of
the Roswell Fruit Growers Associa'
ton was held Saturday at
the court house, the association re-
opening the meeting that went into
recess the Saturday previous. The old
old board of directors was reelected
ON one ballot and the reelected di
rectors will no doubt re-elect the ofiic-
ers of the past year, wlen the offic
ial staff stood as follows: j.. c. Ham
ilton, President: Robert Beers. vice
president: NJ. 5. Murray, Secretary
c. f. Baker. John T. stone, A. E
Macy and Cooley Triton, Directors.
There were about thirty fruit grow
ers at the meeting.
Of even more interest to the fruit
men themselves than the election was
the report on the test of smudge pots
recently made and the discussion the
reof 1t was reported a a test OF

minutes. The National Orchard Heat-
er burned until 5:25, or four hours.
The Hamilton was blown out by the
wind during the test. The Trout-nan
pot made the same showing as the
Hamilton. The test was conducted in
the presence of a large number OF
fruit and much interest was
taken in the result.
When the report was read at the
Saturday meeting a lively discussion
followed. Many questions were asked
and w. A. Johnson, of the Hardware
Company and Joe Ware, agent for the
Troutman, were there to answer
them. As to the cost of buying and
operating the pots, it was shown that
