SOME RECENT ARRIVALS
Folks who come with no
Thought Of Remaining
but who Stayed.

The Deming country Is surely
getting some excellent people. who
came here with no intention of maxi
ing this section their home. Some
are commercial men, some profes-
sional men and some experienced
farmers, but all are royal good
American citizens who want to bet
ter their condition physically and
financially. although many Of them
have plenty Of the current coin Of
the realm this very minute. Here
are a few notable examples:
A few weeks ago V. s. Hills, a
prominent citizen of Portland. Maine,
came here on a visit and before he
could get away he determined to
make the sunshine state his home.
He purchased a half section and
will soon be here with his splendid
family. He will develop an extern
sive fruit farm.
About the same time Asa ID. Hall.
came from New York. representing
a large art house. In company
with Mr.. Hills. he went for a horse
back ride through the valley, and
from that very minute he didn't
care about art goods. Genuine old
Nature looked better to him. He
will likewise soon be one Of us.
He's a mighty good one. too, and
will bring omesother good ones.
A week or two later o. v. Gale
her. representing the Merchants
Publishing Co.. Of Kalamazoo,
Michigan. came TO Deming to re-
new contracts for his beautiful cal
anders, being accompanied on this
trip by his wife and child. They
had heard Of the Deming country
and were prepared TO believe the
good things they had heard. Two
or three days here convinced them
that the cold north Is not to be COM
pared with the sunny south, and
they too will soon be settled on a
half section, northwest of the city,
to develop a big fruit farm.
+. | Brown of Hillsdale, Michi-
gan. came here last week to look
after the Alamo engine trade, and
when he saw the Cox farm being
watered by power furnished by one
Of his own engines. he took a big
look at crops that grow as II by
magic when the water is applied
and says he to himself, says he.
"Mimbres Valley soil Is good stuff
to own," and straightway got busy
and bought quarter section Of
decided land and II won't be long
before you will see things growing
down there and Browns bank bal
ance piling up.
The same week, Mr.. and Mrs. F.
s. Horner Of Fresno, California, en-
route to visit friends in New Mex.
leo. dropped of at Deming for Just
day." and now are possessors of
100 acres of our unriyalled real es-
tate. They have returned to the
coast to make preparations to come
back.
A week or two ago II. H. Jacobs
and John Schroeder came down from
Emmettsburg, Iowa. to visit their
old friend, Fred Sherman, with no
intention Of remaining longer than
few days, and with no thought Of
releasing their large holdings In the
north, but the Mimbres Valley soon
oyercame them and they will both
become permanent residents.
DR.. v. Irving Miller, a prominent
resident Of Shreveport, La, came
up q short time ago to spend a few
days with his former neighbor, A|e'
A. Smith, and Is now at home pre-
pairing TO come here for life,
These are just few we can cal
TO mind of hand, There are many
many others,
