Las Vegas, N. NJ, Dec. 1S.--It
is the confident belief of w. r.
Smythe, a territorial good roads
engineer who is making h is
headquarters here, that the
farmers of New Mexico do not
give enough attention to the
raising of dairy C t tie. Mr..
Smythe says that the dairy COW
is the salvation Of every new
farming community. His ex-
pe1ence in the DakotIs has con-
WINGED him that such is fact.
While learning 10 farm under

and in an unaccustomed climate
the farmer naturally needs a
source of income to fall back up
