MAKING GOOD AT FARMING
I'M ARin rnIINTR


Adjoining Willard, Torrance county
on the west, lives farmer. A year
ago his homestead was but sandy
hillside. This year, under persistent
cultivation his farm has blossomed
with the roses that indicate agricul-
tural plentitude. Every passer by in
viewing the development of this land
involuntarily says to himself, here is
a farmer who believes that our rich
New Mexican soil, upon which perpet-
ual sunshine beams SO benignantly,
can be made to yield most bountifully
if man will only do his part with per-
sistent intelligence.
More power to you, Peter McKis-
sor and may you go on improving
your place until it becomes not only
the beauty spot of Torrance county,
but also one of the best paying farms
in New Mexico.
This year Mr.. McKissor raised all
kinds of garden truck in profusion
and had a neat income from it's sale.
He has considerable alfalfa under
way and also a young orchard grow
ing. We understand that he will irri
gate on larger scale next year and
we judge from his success of the past
season that next fall will see his
farm yielding well paying crop. 9th
ers can do likewise and become inde-
! pendent here in few years.

He Supposed Wife Had Gone
to Visit Professional
Friend
NEXT DAY TOOK IN AFFINITY
II Was He Who Had Persuaded
His Typist to Don Mans
Clothes.

London, Oct 21-Dr Hawley Grip
pen, on trial for the murder of his
wife Belle Elmore, underwent a cross
examination today, by Richard Muir
aclS, one of the cleverest criminal law
yers OF England. In reply to questions
Crippen said that he had not seen or
heard of his wife since early in the
morning of February 5. He supposed
she had gone to Bernice Miller, her
professional acquaintance who lives in
Chicago He said he considered that
he was quite entitled to tell Inspector
Drew that he had not pawned his
wife's valuables as these had been
purchased with his money and he con-
sidered them his. Crippen admitted
that no time had been lost in estab-
fishing Miss Leneve in his home. Miss
Leneve stepped into the house on
February 2, within "a hours after
Crippen's wife had disappeared. The
witness said she had resolved to go
away on July 8, after realizing that
suspicion would be directed against
him, as he feared he might be arrest
ed and jailed until his wife was found.
He also wished to spare Miss Leneve
and persuaded her to disguise herself
and leave London.
Same Testimony.
London, Oct. 21.-The witness was
piled with questions by Lord Justice
Alverstone and Mr.. Muer regarding
his use of hyoscin poison in the pre-
scription which it is alleged caused
the death of Belle Elmore. Crippen
said he had not purchased any before
or after the occasion asserted by the
crown. He eodld not name any pa
tient for whom he had prescribed
hyoscin. He suggested that the hu-
man parts found in the cellar possibly
wers put there during one of the alb
sences of himself and Mrs. Crippen
from home.
crippen on Point of Collapse.
London, Oct. 21.-Crippen withstood
the ordeal but when he returned to
the prisoners dock he was on the
point of collapse The defense rested
today and the case will go to the july

FUTURE Of
DRY FARMING
Ell Paso Enthusiast and Ex-
pert Tells of His
Faith
ATTENDED SPOKANE CONGRESS
c. A. Martin, News Editor of
FL Paso Herald, in Santa Fe
on Way Home.

g, A, Martin, president of the Texas
Dry Farming Congress. executive com
mitteeman from Texas in the Interna-
tional Dry Farming Congress and
news editor of the FL Paso Herald. is
In Santa Fe.
This is his first trip to the capital,
although in his eight years connec.
ton with the Herald, he has visited
every other city of importance in the
territory. These trips have all been
made at the instance of the Herald.
whose management believes in having
its executive heads thoroughly famil-
lar with all surrounding territory.
Returning from months trip on
behalf of the Herald Mr.. Martin
reached Santa Fe this morning accom-
panied by Mrs. Martin to look in" in
the constitutional convention and see
Santa Fe.
Mr. Martin has had a busy month of
it. AS a delegate from the Texas
agricultural department, he attended
the National Irrigation Congress at
Pueblo and represented The Herald,
| too, filing TO that enterprising paper
about 5000 words a day on the prog
ress of the fight between the New
Mexico-El Paso delegates and the
Colorado delegates. Then he attended
the Dry Farming Congress at Spokane.
Wash, and helped the Colorado
Springs delegation land the next con
yention considering Colorado Springs
the most logical location to benefit
New Mexico and Texas.
After that, at the instance of Fl. d.
Slater, president and editor-in-chief of
The Herald, who is chairman of the
park commission of Ell Paso, Mr.. Mar
tin visited Seattle, Tacoma, Portland.
Denver, Salt Lake and Colorado
Springs, collecting park data for Mr.
Slater, who had previously visited
these places and mapped out the mat
ter which he wished covered.
While he saw some beautiful coun-
try, Mr.. Martin says, he found none
| that looked better than this rugged
| southwest, 1.-The home of real red
blooded men and women, with eli
mate incompatible, as he puts it in
| the enthusiasm of returning. He says,
| the present snowstorm extended from
Montana and Wyoming clear down to
Lamy and that it was practically the
first real cold wave of the year and
caused a great deal of shivering.
On dry farming, the visitor says
says: DRY farming has been abused
because many real estate promoters
sold land in regions they knew were
untillable, but where there is as much
as fifteen inches of rain, am sure it
is effective. 1t is yet in its infancy
and | believe it will be eventually so
far perfected that it can be used with
success in areas when the precipita-
| ton is much less.
II am not sure as yet what it will
accomplish, but / want to see it tried.
We have millions of acres in Arizona,
west Texas and New Mexico that can
never be reclaimed by irrigation. Dry
farming may do it. 1t is worth trying,
for if dry farming can't reclaim it
| then it is useless and | do not believe
| the Creator ever made any of our soil
| to be wasted
