hat IS why there IS more money and prop
erty changing hands right now IN Deming and
vicinity than IN any other town of ike size IN
New Mexico Investors find safe investments,
and profitable ones. The sensible man with
money TO invest tests any gwen proposition by
these two touchstones IS II safe? Is II prohtable2
Productive land IS conceded TO be the safest
investment IN the world. Of course, IN the ram
belts, years of drouth may decrease profits from
such investments, but still it Is usually safe IN
vestment, In that It cannot blow away It cam
not burn up floods rarely destroy 1t, thieves can
not break IN and steal It. In seasonable years,
there Is certainty of return. That's the reason
Iowa, Illinois, Ohio and other farm mortgages
bear such low rate Of interest. They are con-
sidered SAFE
And you will find It the world over, that
low profits, small returns, 90 hand IN hand with
safety IN investments. Unsafe investments yield
occasionally large returns, when they yield at
all.
It IS only occasionally, very occasionally,
that you run across an investment grounded upon
a safe rock-bottom, and still good yielder.

Just as you are doing this one. always with an
eye upon the opportunity suggested He talks
with people who have travelled and who have
had wide experience, asks them thousand
questions, keeps his mind open and unpreju-
diced, doesn't accept the say-so of any one per-
son, views propositions from many angles.
travels himself and converts himself into a
human queshon-mark, keeps his own counsel,
acts quickly and decisively. He never loses
sight Of the main chance.
Such IS the character of the men who are
coming INTO the Mimbres Valley today. They
are convinced that investments here are not only
safe, but immensely profitable. They size up
the situation about thus: Inexhaustible wafer
a supply which competent engineers pronounce
he most dependable for irrigation IN the world;
productive soil ga climate almost per-
lect; ready and high-priced markets; 5-a
community thoroughly alive; and so on When
he has made up his mind, he acts.
There IS a sort of natural selection going on
which insures Dening and the Mimbres Valley
Of progressive citizens. You cant convince some
people that water twenty, thirty or a hundred

pumping problem. There's no use talking to
such people about any innovation. They are
fat-witted, dubious minded, there are clogs and
clots IN their mental processes which preclude
the possibility of new line or chain of thought
entering their minds.
The people who are making Deming and
the Mimbres Valley today are progressive
people. The proposition appeals to no other
class This advertisement doesn' appeal to any
other class. The man who does not have his
eye peeled for new opportunities, for invest
ments that are at once safe and Inordnately
profitable will moi answer this advertisement
To the progressive individual, however, this adj
vertisement will appeal about as follows:
" These people up at Deming keep talking about
their wonderful possibilities. The whole com
munity seems to be enthusiastic They are 50
enthusiastic that they are willing to pay for space
to tell the world about It. They are urging me
to investigate ii right now. Surely the whole
community cannot be fooled. There are cranks,
of course, IN every community. but communities
as whole are very sane They must have
something worthy at least of an investigation.
Therefore believe / shall cut out this coupon
which they have 50 conveniently provided, mark
the subjects am interested IN, and mail It to the
secretary Of their chamber Of commerce It
cant do any ham. It will cost me but two cents.
1t may be that they have got just what have
been looking for all my life. Here goes.
In this day and time you have to use your

Unsconsciously / uttered these
words aloud as | walked down
the pretty shady street in my
native town. / had been think
ing of how / was going to spend
Christmas away from the city,
and alone in the little country
town / had left seven years be-
fore voWing never to return.
Some persons called me
seIfish;-others a cynic, and the
majority a lucky man who by
his talents had risen to the top
Of his profession. Whenever the
words rich and famous c a m e
from my would-be friends, I
would try to smile, but a sheer
would settle around my mouth
instead and / listened with con-
tempt to their praises.
In the city | was accustomed
to persons claiming to be my
most intimate friends. Thinking
it gave them pleasure I let them
H
continue in that delusion.
On this beautiful morning pre-
ceding Christmas as | tried to
drown memories of the merry
past, I suddenly discovered that
tomorrow would also be my
birthday. A sneer replaced the
smile again. Christmas and my
birthday falling on the same
dayl One Birth brought peace
and happiness to the whole
world; the o~ther-What? Echo
answered, Nothing but a self

self with the knowledge | had
been cruelty wronged by my
dearest friend, and the only girl
/ had ever cared for, but the
small voice would always Whis-

your wealth and fame, you live
for nothing but your own self.

age, what the world calls al
middle-aged man. That is a
pleasure, indeed, ! ought to be
thankful for. Only one day
more to be called a young man,
then, goodbye to youth, you are
notworth thinking of.
While these thoughts W e e
coursing through my mind, Fl
