SANTA Fl EMPLOYS
MORE EXPERT
FARMERS
ESTABLISH DEPARTMENT
OF AGRICULTURE SOON
With Exhibits of Produce
and Carrying Well Written
Literature to be Maintained;
Lectures by Scientific Men,

An appropriation for placing two
more dry farming experts in the
southwest has been made by the Santa
Fe railway, and these men will begin
work shortly in New Mexico and the
panhandle Of Texas" said Il. Il. VIII
son Of the industrial department OF
the Santa Fe, Yesterday.
The men VIII work under Prof.
j.. u. Tinsley, formerly OF the New
Mexico Agricultural college, but now
engaged in conducting experiments
on the Santa Fe in dry farming dis
tricts. They Will be equipped with
automobiles especially constructed for
overland work and they viii operate
not only along the main line, but on
branch lines. The men have no yet
been employed
1t was learned on good authority
that the Santa Fe is preparing to es-
tahlish Il department of agriculture
and hat the present experiments are
but ii beginning in this line. The new
department will conduct experiments
on an extensive line in all sections,
examine soil, water supply and gem
farming conditions and assist the
farmers wherever possible in all Sec
tons along the entire system. II Is
proposed to equip and maintain
special exhibition cars, In which viii.
be displayed produce from all Sec
tions along the road. These cars viii
be sen from district to district for
the benefit of farmers and prospcc-
tive settlers. They will be in charge
of agricultural experts ana lectures
viii be given on the various sections
and the kinds Of farming suitable TO
each area.
The ears Will carry supplies Of lit
erature, telling all about the country
and the agricultural conditions. The
will he taken from the re-
ports of the Santa Fe agricultural cx-
perts n the government reports,
but they will be rewritten into plain,
everyday English, devoid of all tech
meal and scientific terms, so that
who can read will be able TO
understand them easily.
The dry farming tests made by
Professor Tinsley thus far, have
proven of great interest, and It is be-
Iieved that an agricultural depart
nent such as is contemplated, will
,evolutionlze farming in New Mexico

HAWAIIAN GOVERNOR
TO SEND DEIEGA ALTON

From far-oft Hawaiian Islands
comes e note of announcement, and
the expression of the hope that the
eighteenth session will be a complete
success Not only that, but there Is
the official word of the governor that
the islands will be represented, as
usual.
Writing the secretary of the board
Of control. Governor w. +. Frear
says:
Il shall be very glad to appoint
delegates to the next National Irriga-
ton congress If | can find suitable
mon who can attend at so great n
distance at that time.
Two years ago ! appointed ono
delegate. ana last year I appointed
five delegates to the national irllgn-
ton congress.
This is q subject in which the ter
ritory is greatly interested, and, In
deed, in which IL has already accom-
plished a great deal and is now doing
II great deal.
at is doubtful if any other state
or territory is doing as much as this
in the various lines in which the
congress is interested"
Not only that. but the Hawaiian
ne wspapefs aie printing pieces about
the big Pueblo event. The director OF
publicity Of the Eighteenth congress
recently received n roll ct papers
confirming the most interesting and
flattering reference to the congress
here, and also special stories that had
been sent from here to persons inter-
ested in the islands.
Ralph s. Hosmei, superintendent or
forestry under the territorial board OF
agriculture and forestry, writes Sec
rotary Faxon of the board of control
here that he not only has put out TO
the leading newspapers information
has received concerning the WORK
of congress and preparation for the
coming sessions. as we'll as data
touching ColoIa ado and other western
but would like some special
stories, which have been sent TO him,
Mr.. Hosmel generally attends the
Of the congress, and expects
do so this year,
The work in the territory or
Hawaii, together with hat In Cuba as
recently mentioned, end the interest
in Porte Rico, certainly attest to the
9iertness OF the insular possessions
md n%eiehbors OF the United States
n the big work of development as
unified bv the labor of the national

from the standpoint of impor-
ant attendance at the Pueblo sessions

prohibited from v%enturing n guess as
to the total.
Now Supervisor Towlc refuses 10
state what ne believes Will he tho to-
tai enumeration for Arizona, but he
has reason Tor believing that it will
exceed his first estimate, which was
200. 600. That Is exclusive Of Indians.
II It does not exceed this figure, II
Is generally believed that there will
he no objection to the admission II
Arizona into the Union by those who
oppose statehood on the ground that
the territory's population is insuffi-
clent.
And Supervisor Towlc evidently
bases his belief on the results of the
census thus for obtained.
II seems that the increase in popu-
lation outside OF the principal cities
OF the territory is much greater than
anticipated, because of the growth OF
numerous mining camps, and the in
ccption of many WHICH were not in
existence when the last census was
taken. Formerly isolated sections of
the territory are more thickly settled
and new cities end towns have sprung
up in the last ten years whore before
were only sand hills or bare mountain
sides. A notable instance is Douglas.
where there was nothing ten years
ago, and which now Is . city of prob
ably 10000 inhabitants.
Census Supervisor Towle does not
say hat the enumeration of the ter
ritory will show oven 200, 900. Pre-
vious to the beginning of the enum-
GRAFTON he stated thai he believed the
consus would total that figure at
least. Today he says that he has
reasons TO believe hat the total win
his first estimate. Therefore,
it is concluded that MI. Towle has
figures sufficient to base an opinion
hot the toa' census OF Arlaonians,
exclusive Of Indians, ut over 100000.
