Fred Pennington. the genial and
active manager of the Foxworth,
Galbraith Lumber Co. at Columbus.
visited his parents here over Sun
day. He had a good word to say
about his new home town and pre-
diets a good future for the Me
tropolis Of Southern Luna County"
He figures that with the coming Of
statehood that the Columbus coun-
try will have an influx Of settlers Of
the best type and that the boost in
land values will be great. He says
that with the practical assurance of
statehood, good settlers are already
coming in fast and that lumber
sales ore already starting in.
There are at least two reasons
why lumber sales should be good.
First. he is manager for a mighty
good company and second, Fred is
perpetual motion in his business
methods and habits.

Cabbage Raising Very Profit
able Here.

Rev. W. f. Foulks has been de-
liverlng products Of his ranch all
winter, one Of the most satisfactory
and profitable Of which has been a
very superior quality Of cabbage.
He didn't get them set out until
August and the average weight in
December was better than 4 pounds
per head. He figures only 5000
plants per acre. but the coming sea-
son he viii adopt a plan Of putting
them closer together and making
the heads smaller when they are
ready to market. He received this
year &c per pound, or $3.50 per
acre, gross. Even at half this price
the tremendous profit can be readily
SEEN. The quality Of the Mimbres
Valley product is very superior,
"Burpee's Surehead" being the
particular kind raised on the Foulks
ranch. The atmospheric and soil
conditions here produce a cabbage
that 20 to 30 minutes cooking will
render thoroughly done and tender,
with no unpleasant odor in cooking.
People want facts and these ought
to satisfy anybody.

are very much superior to the
coarse stalks and small leaves grown
where water conditions are different.
The irrigation water is ideal, as it
can be pumped directly on the

Only Six Cents Per Voter the
Price Of Statehood.

When you are told that the gang
made such enormous salaries for
our state officers, do you stop and
figure what the enormous report
means. II is that the so-called
enormous salaries mean just six
GEMS TO every voter. The actual
difference between the majority and
the minority report in the constitu-
tional convention on salaries for the
whole of the state officers was a
grand total of $500. Not a very
great difference when you also fig
ure and find that the total salaries
of all officers of the state will ag-
greeate $l5O.0OO, including judges
legislators. appointees, etc.
There are $500 tax payers in
the state, $500 divided among the
tax payers makes a total Of six
cents per voter the price Of state
