YOU WANT TO MOVE
Mimbres Valley

increasing demand for land It has risen from
nothing up to the prices above quoted. AS devel-
Opment goes forward as more and more families
move into the valley, as the marvellous fertility
of the soil is yearly demonstrated, and as the ef
ficiency of the pumping system for irrigation
gains in popularity, the land of the Mimbres Val
lev commands a higher and higher price. 1t is
safe to predict that in less than ten years. choice
farms will be selling around DenIng for 100000
per acre, while every foot Of iTrigable land will
bring from 5000 to $3.50 per acre. This is Just as
certain to occur as the sun is to rise tomorrow
morning. Conditions which have brought these
prices elsewhere are operative in the Mimbres
Valley.
1.-The homeseeker desires to cast his lot In a
progressive community No matter what the
natural advantages of a community may be, I'M
less there is a spirit of progressiveness IN the
people, that community will lag behind. Most
everyone wants to get into the push. They want
to be where there something doing. They don't
want to fossilize. To one who appreciates the
value of casting his lot with a live one, Deming
appeals very strongly. DDeming Is doing more
advertising right now than any town IN New
Mexico. The business buildings of Deming com
pare favorably in point of stability and artistic
merit with those of any other town IN New Mex
leo. The public buildings Of Deming are models
of convenience, beauty and durability. Deming
has sanitary sewer system capable of accOmmO-
dating city of fifteen thousand. These are
merely'evidences Of the progressive spirit which
rule Deming. The homeseeker Immediately
picks Deming out for a live one.
5-The homeseeker desires the benefit of
good schools for his children, and healthful so
cial life for his family. Both of these are offered
in Deming The Deming schools have a reputa-
ton all over New Mexico as being among the
most progressive and Up-tO-date In the state.
Courses in domestic science bookkeeping stenO-
graphy. typewriting, manual training, and all
the courses usually offered in a high school are
given in the Dening High School, and the teach
ing talent is the best that can be obtained. Six
religious denominations have cOmmOdiOus homes
in Deming, maintain pastors, and participate ac-
lively in strengthening the morals and making
the life Of the town clean and wholesome.
El Paso herald. (El Paso, Tex.) 1901-1931, 1911-12-06
We Want You Here i'm the N

He wants cheap land Search Of cheap
land is the one thing that has stimulated move
ment Of population westward since the days OF
the revolution. Whatever else hOmeseeker may
want, you know to start with that he wants cheap
land. If we didn't have cheap land IN the MINI
bres Valley we wOuldn' t be advertising for home
seekers Some of the best valley land, well-wa-
tered, choicely located, adjoining the tOwnsite,
can be bought on easy payments with water for
irrigation in your ditch for $4,000 per acre.
How does that strike you for cheap land? Land
and wateTight the very choicest IN New Mexico
for $3.50 per acre on easy payments len acres OF
this land makes any family independent. But if
you are willing to go a little further out and put
In your own pumping plant, you can get decided
land for from $40 to $75 per acre If you are Will
ING to take a REIMBURSEMENT you can get land for
from So to $40 per acre. Does not this settle the
question Of cheap land? Where can you go in
proved irrigation district and buy land for any
thing like these prices? You simply can't do it.
You lack experience if you think you can. The
whole situation has been canvassed and we know
what we re talking about.
2-The homeseeker demands health. The
Mimbres Valley is famed for its general health
fulness. It's water supply is pure and uncOntaml-
mated It filters for fifty miles through sand and
gravel and is taken from the wells In Deming and
vicinity in state of absolute purity. 1t contains
no element in any way detrimental to the health.
It is pure, sparkling, Iife-giving water, than
which there is none better to be found in the
world Besides the water, the climate is almost
perfect You must really live the days and
nights of this glorious Mimbres Valley in order
to know it as We who are spending our lives here
know it. Here you find life at its best, not one
month or three, or six, but twelve full months
out Of every year. It is almost a valley in the
sky the elevation above sea level being 1900 feet
o1v. ir clear no oTi-
cal exhiliration Of the desert and the mountains
is ever present. If it is health that the home
seeker demands, he can be satisfied here.
3-The homeseeker wants to be assured that
land prices are going up instead Of down. Land
values in the Mimbres Valley have risen steadily
for the past three or four years They have
never been doomed, but there has been an ever
