zen Of our town in the near
future. This farm will be a gen.
eral farm but the main crop will
be wheat and cotton, this will,
in a few years show what we all
want to know, that is, whether
or not cotton and wheat can be
made to pay one year with
another which we are sure it will
prove.
Mr.. Basset in a speech to our
Commercial Club last January

the kaffr Corn and furnish green
feed the year round, and he in
forms US that he bought three Of
these Silo's while in Kansas City
and that they will be installed
within 30 days. and that they are
lSx30 feet, three of which will
store plenty of Silo for his herd Of
dairy COWS. The Silo is a great
thing for the stock raiser and can
be put in cheap and will furnish
green fresh feed all the winter
through. Mr.. Basset bought
the Silo Cutter and engine with
which to cut and fill these Sllos
Speaking Of the Diary business

mean that the dairy cow will
come in for her part of city max
ing, and we will be able to have
our fresh milk delivered to our
homes at such times as we want
it, just as the city folks do.
Mr.. Bassett is developing one of
the incest farms in the country
where his dairy COWS, etc, will
be kept. He informs US that he
will have an expert dairy man
here to nave charge Ct the dairy
as soon as he can get one and the
trade demands the same.
Everything will be carried on
IN the most sanitary manner at
the Dairy, only the best and
healthiest cows being used.

the matter of securing the pump

chased the details are being
worked out and will soon be pur-
chased and installed. Mr. Bass

Company in Chicago are well
pleased with the conditions in
this country and they are ever
ready 10 do things for Crosbyton.

Crosby County

In an interview with Mr.. Bass
ct yesterday he tells US that he
has Just returned from a trip to
to the city of Chicago and Kan
sas City, and that he has taken
special pains to gather for our
people all the good he could and
that he has noted conditions all
along the line, and that the gen
eral conditions in Crosby County
is as good as any points he has
visited, but that all along the
routes he has travelled the crop
prospects are somewhat spotted
but Crosby looks as good if not
better than the best he has seen.
Speaking of the 10000 acre
farm he is inclined to be of the
opinion that this will be one of
the greatest benefits to the
county and to every tiller of the
soil that could be put in, and he
tells US that they will begin as
soon as possible in the prepare
ton Of this farm, this is a big
Job and will take time to get or

IN THE AUTOMOBILE WORLD
Good Trade Promised for 1911-American Cars Not Behind Those Made in Europe-New Haven's Fire Runabout Lit by Electricity.

When an automobile show opens at the beginning of a year the industry is really in rnidseason. That is to say, what is new for 1911 has been known for some time, and in fact the makers are planning their 1912 product.
 The consensus as far as 1911 is con- cerned seems to be that the trade is good. There is. in some quarters, a danger of overproduction, but even those who were a trifie overenthusias- tic have calmed down, and the chances are that automobiles enough will be produced, and not many more. In- stead of attempting to force a larger supply of cars into the already ex- plotted districts, manufa cturers have turned their attention to other sections and each one had determined that there are opportunities for placing many cars.
 For instance, Windsor T. White, of the White company, after swing through the west and south, was able to give public assurance that the farmer element was in the field for cars, and ready to buy them strongly.
 Fire Chief Rufus Fancher has given details for the construction of the equipping of the new fire runabout for the New Haven fire department, and 1t is expected that the machine will be completed and delivered there by
 
 to have four seats, with room under meath for boots helmets and other ar- ticles of fire fighting apparel and equipment. It will carry extra lanterns and feature of the lighting system will be the lighting Of all the lamps by electricity. The lamps will be con- nected with 8 battery and the chief can light them all by touching an cleo tric button. This was q feature in- sisted upon by the chief as it is essen- tial to quick response to fire alarms.
 '"The most interesting thing learn ed in my recen trip to Paris to the automobile show and to the principal factories of Europe was that the American-built motor car does noi have to take a back seat for the best car that is produced in Europe" says well known automobile authority The most popular car in Europe is the five passenger touring car with com paratively small motor, usually rating between 25 and 30 horse power, and the cars which sell the best have the unit power plant. The bodice Hr4 nlAd< roofnisr than hefetnfore and Che det441l of comfort are looked after better. Tho doors are large and the seats are deer and low and dust gathering features are qttitc generally eliminated.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
BROAD AND ACTIVE DEMAND.
Prices Rise in impressive Manner
 Gains Equally We'll Distributed.

New York. Jan. 17.-Prices rose on the stock exchange today in such an impressive manner az to indicate that last weeks upward movement had not exhausted itself, despite the temporary check yesterday Trading began with
 & broad and active demand which soon piled the list as whole at the top level for the present movement, with gains almost equally well distributed among railway and industrial issues. The general tone of the market de- noted that some of the more powerful financial factors were encouraging the movement. by tacit consent, at least. Some justification for this belief was found in tho now financing reported in the course of the day, as well as the further ease In the monetary situa- ton.
 Strength of Canadian Pacific was again q notable feature, London ad- vancing the stock by almost two points before our opening, and the rise con- tinuing here to 21o 7-S. establishing a new high record with net gain of over three points. The movement in Canadian Pacific naturally attracted attention to various other properties whose fortunes arc linked with it. such as Wisconsin Central, Minneap- oiis, St. Paul and Sault Ste. Marie, Twin City Rapid Transit, all of which 1 materially improved their market pricee.
 Norfolk and Western issues were even more prominent in the days op- eratfons, the stock advancing over four points on heavy transactions, with a substantial gain in the convertible bonds.
 There were no developments in con- nection with this property, but there is a fast increasing belief that Norfolk and Western will ere long be taken
 over under lease by tho Pennsylvania system, with a guarantee of. six per cent. dividends. Both the Hartman and Hill issues shared in the move
 ment of ths day, as did also the coal stocks. though their improvement was less marked than recently. United States Steel reassumed its leadership in respect of activity, and steady ac- cumuIation of the stock resulted in an advance to. 7S 1-S, closing at the top figure. Other industrial issues. as well as the utility stocks had share in the days operations, all the better known gas and telephone stocks being in apparent demand. The movement also spread to the copper shares. and. taken as whole. was easily the most nprehensive of the day
 Advocates of higher prices seemed to
 make much of the foreign trade report
 { for December, which showed an enor- nous excess of shipments over the ] same month of 1909
 [ Business in bonds on the. exchange
 1 was much larger than any day for many months, and included block of ! sj00.000 new city Ifs at I01. The i demand for bonds outside the ex- l change continued broad, but still is
 confined to issues of the highest grade. In the general bond market a firm
 l tone was apparent throughout, with
 especial strength in American Tobac- l co 4s and a reverse movement in the
 | 6's. Total sales, par value, $5,4S5, 900. United States bonds advanced IA | per cent. on call.

Hartford, Conn, Jan. 17--The win ner of the pennant in the Connecticut Baseball league will in the future be given $100 instead of $2o, as the result of action taken at a meeting of the di- rectors and officers of the league here tonight. President Tracy and all the directors were present and much busi- ness of minor nature incident to the opening of the league games in the spring was transacted
 The directors unanimously upheld the contention of Harold Drant, one of the owners of the Waterbury club, that six players which Manager Finn claimed belonged to him were the property of the club, and that Finn was in no manner entitled to their services.
 There will be change in the clubs for the coming season, and tho circuit will be the same as for the past year. Hereafter the name of the league will be printed on all balls used and there will be uniform tickets for all clubs. Official scorers were appointed for the home city of each club, and the d1rec- tors made known their preference of dates for games, which were noted by the maker of the schedule, and as soon as the schedule has been draw n up another meeting of the directors will be held here and the schedule ac- cepted.

sHAw's BIG COUP.
Won $3o,ooo at 15 to at Jacksonville
 Track.

Tom Shaw, the young turf plunger, won $5o,000 on one race at Jackson vile, Fla. last week. It was the big gest coup of the year. It hit several of the eastern ibookmakers so hard that they wrapped up all that remain ed of their bankrolls and sadly started for New York. Shaw had $2,000 on a successful 1o to shot which won on tf1s post by a nose. A stride on the near side of the winning post his mon ey was lost; but just as the imaginary finish line was reached the bearer of Shaws hopes, to say nothing of his money, won.
 The winning sof that bet made a great difference to Shaw. Time was last spring when he would scarcely worry about such a trifie bue he Ina q 8 bad season. in 1910 and this, coupled with his real estate holdings. on which he could not realize to advantage quickly, greatly crippled his ready cash account. His play relatively had been light up to the time he won his big bet. Since then he has been op- erattng with ali his old time dash.

FIFTH co. WINS.
Hospital Indoor Baseball Team Lost Exciting Game at Armory, 34 to 16.

In indoor baseball at the armory on Tuesday evening the Fifth company, Coast Artillery, team won an exciting game from the State Hospital nine, which was filled with more excitement than the score of 34 to 16 would indi- cate. The winners drove Sam Austin out of the box with an avalanche of hits in the early part of the game, and Simcox finished out the box work, with Frank Harrington doing good work behind the bat.
 Where the soldiers excelled especial ly was in their fielding, but the slip perry floor to which they were not ac- customed played havoc with the at empts of the Hospital boys to scoop up the drives from the bats of the military men.
