.DEM|NG OUGHT
TO Be NUMBERED
About the Only Important
Easy Thing our Town
has Overlooked
A GREAT CONVENIENCE
Would be a Fine Thing for
Strangers and Residents
as Well.

II IL could be done at little or no
expense. and we see no reason why
II couldn't, our business blocks and
residences and all vacant property
ought to be numbered, II needs
not the slightest argument to con-
vince any reasonable person that
this Is true. It would add class"
to the community and make 1t ex-
ceedingly convenient for strangers
and residents as well to locate with
perfect ease, business blocks and
residences.
And another thing, our postal re-
ceipts are piling up 80 rapidly that
free delivery will be the next thing
and then the government will re-
quire numbering, expense or no ex-
pense. A proper numbering at the
present time, and we certainly
wouldn't want it to be done at all
unless II could he done properly,
would be taking time by the fore
lock and getting ready for condi-
ton that must soon confront US.
Many towns of half this size are
numbered and Deming must surely
keep up her record of progress
along this line. No one is to be
censured or blamed for failure tC
number. No one has thought j,
necessary to jump into the gap ant
do it. We hope this article viii
stir somebody up to get busy.

THE BIG WORK Of
ONE WELL OUTFIT
During the Past Year Rhea
& Rhea Have Completed
IS Big Wells
ALL IN OPERATION
Besides This They Have
Drilled 22 Little Ones
and are Still Going.

The well firm Of Rhea q Rhea
have been demonstrating what en-
ergy and perseverance, coupled
with a little Of the right kind Of
gray matter can do. Most of the
work has been done by Alfred and
his IA year old brother Albert. who
commenced the work a year ago
without any previous knowledge Of
well drilling or the installation OF
pumping plants. They came from
an Iowa farm and jumped into the
game 10 win. Since that time they
have put down l3 fine irrigation
wells that are now helping TO make
the valley green, and better than a
score of little fellows that they
don't count as much. which still do
their part In the great development
Of the valley.
They have gained well wisdom by
experience and are now up on all
kinds Of screens and pumps. and
hrve learned to fill cavities around
the pipe with rock. They have
learned many other good things
that go toward making success Of
the business.
This Is just one well firm Of the
dozen or so making good in the val
ley. We would be very glad to
publish what others are doing.

Government ENGINEER
| SAYS WE'RE THE BEST
And to Prove What he Says,
Is Coming to the Demins
Country.
WILL BRING OTHERS
For Five Years has Been In
vestigating Land Condi-
tions in Southwest.

After five years Of exhaustive
study Of conditions thruout the
Southwest. United States Surveyor
and Civil Engineer. George G. En-
renborg, has come to the wise con-
clusion that the Mimbres Valley Is
the best irrigstion proposition to
tie to, and as consequence will
make the Deming country bis per-
manent home. relinquishing his
work for Uncle Sam and following
the wake Of many another sensible
government official in going back
to the farm"
About FIVE years ago Mr.. Ehren-
borg came to the Mimbres Valley,
but informs the GRAPHIC that he
didn't have his senses along with
him. This time he had and as
result will become one of us. His
study of the irrigation, climatic and
health conditions tbruout the Unit.
ed States has been very thoro and
of course without bias or prejudice,
He was looking for the best place
and would have gone to any other
locality had he considered Il better
than the Mimbres Valley. He had
his pick of the whole Southwest and
has taken five years TO decide.
He regrets exceedingly that he
didn't get into the game couple Of
years earlier, but will make up fol
time lost by getting extra bus,
now. Himself and family and two
or three relatives will be here short
" and his judgment in selecting
this as the best country in which t
permanently locate will induce sev
eral of his influential friends to fol
low his example.
The right hand of fellowship !
hereby extended on behalf of In
the entire valley. 1t keeps up on
classy record.
Mr.. Ehrenborg's last importan
piece of. engineering was the con
struction of the Pecos river dam a

reclaiming $4,000 acres Of land.

Engineer Miller a Live One.

Gov. Mills sure made a ten-strike
when he appointed C. d. Miller ter
ritorial engineer. His work as an
engineer is finer than spun silk and
now he has commenced the publica-
ton of a Good Roads bulletin which
will be sent free to any person in
New Mexico interested in good
roads and that means Us all. Drop
a postal card to Territorial Engi-
neer, Santa Fe and copy will be
sent you.
In the first issue a communication
from Carlsbad tells of the benefits
that have come to that city thru
the improvement Of one road. The
results are summed up as follows
and are easy to be understood:
Formerly four horse team re-
quired from seven to ten hours to
haul a load of $500 pounds. Now
5000 pounds can be hauled by the
same team in two or three hours.
Formerly it was impossible Ia
cross the sands in an automobile
Now the trip is made in sixteen tC
nineteen minutes. Formerly a light
ly loaded hack required from five
TO seven hours to make the trip
now it Is made at an easy trot II
an hour.
In one week IL loaded team'
passed over the road, making a de
tour of twenty miles for the pur
pose, rather than to go straight
where the drivers had been accus
toned heretofore TO cross.
Il is estimated that the traffic ha
increased fully 400 per cent and tn
element of efficiency for the energ
expended is much greater. Tn
economical value Of the results oh
tanned Is most satisfactory.

"A citizen Of this vicinity recent

he will continue to peach at the church.
Rev. Bradshaw has been most sue
cessfull In his direction of his church's
affairs since his advent in Indiana Har-
Dor. When he first began his connec-
ton with the church the congregation
was holding services in Union hall, but
he changed the place of meeting 10
Ciine's hall on account OF the former
being over a saloon. He set to work at
once to arrange for the building of
church and ground was broken for the
new edifce in January, 1909, the build
ing being dedicated in December of the
same year. The church cost $4,000 and
is a structure most attractive in its
style OF architecture and exceedingly
comfortable for the purposes for which
1t is designed
During Rev. Bradshaw's pastorate
the membership of his church has al
most doubled. An important feature In
accomplishing this has been the Feb
ruary evangelical meetings which have
come to be regarded as a regulation
thing in Indiana Harbor.
The church will be left on a splendid
basis and Rev. Bradshaw feels that he
could not leave at a time when he
could be more easily spared.

EAST CHICAGO CASE
IN WHITING COURT
Especial to THE TIMEa)

Whiting. Ind, Aug. 3.-The two as
sault and battery cases against Ru-
dolph Dickstein of East Chicago, came
up in the Whiting court Tuesday be-
fore Judge Fetterhoff. Dfckstefn is an
East Chicago saloonkeeper. He had
some grievance against Charles Pitzele
the proprietor of the Boston store, at
East Chicago, whom 1t is reported
said something regarding Dickstein's
relatives to which the latter did not
take kindly.
Mr.. and Mrs. Pitzele were coming out
of Berrys theater in East Chicago
about three weeks ago when Pitzele
was assaulted by Dickstein and Mrs.
Pitzele who interceded in her husbands
behalf, was also given a few slaps by
the Infatuated Dickstein.
Pitzele had him arrested on two
charges, one for assaulting him and the
other for assaulting Mrs. Pitzele, which
warrants were taken out before Mayor
Parks of Whiting. When the case
came up Tuesday Dickstein pleaded
guilty to striking both Mr.. and Mrs.
Pitzele and was fined $25 and costs
amounting in all to s35 which he paid,
and was released.

Twin CITIES TO
HAVE NEW BUSINESS
Manhattan Lumber Co. OF
South Chicago to Locate
Lumber Yards.
Especial to THE T1MEs.l

Indiana Harbor, Ind, Aug. 3.-The
Twin cities are to have new lumber
yard. Judge Walter ]. Riley. OF the
industrial committee of the CONNER
cial club reported at a meeting of the
organization last night, that the Man
haitian lumber company of South Chi
cago had purchased a large parcel OF
ground at Calumet, for the location of
extensive lumber and coal yards.
The site embraces the territory be-
tween Euclid avenue, the c. l. s.,
Chicago avenue and the Chicago Term
inal railroad on both sides of Euclid
avenue. The space on the east side OF
that thoroughfare will be occupied by
the coal yard as far as parish avenue.
while the lumber yard will be located
on the west side of Euclid.
Indiana Harbor at present has two
good lumber yards. but the Twin cities
have room for another business of this
character, and will welcome the new
yards as a good addition to the town.
The Manhattan company is large con-
Germ with headquarters in South Chi
cago.
Judge Riley reported in addition
| that the defining plant which is seek
in to locate here, would most Likely
close it's deal for the site with very
few days. There seems no reason tc
doubt that the project is assured.
The meeting last night the frs
held quite while the warm weather
in the past having made sessions al
most impossible. There was a gooc
crowd present and 1t is believed tha'
from now on the old-time spirit and
go will characterize the club proceed
ings.
The matter of improving the parks
was brought up but It was temporaril,
dropped when the club was informed
| that Mayor Schlieker had alread,
formulated plans which would cover al
the points the club directors had taker
under consideration with reference I,
the proposed enterprise.
