Are You Conservative or
Progressive?

By this question we do not mean
to try and probe into your politics.
that's your business. We are re-
ferring to how you use your mon
ey.
A conservative either banks his
money, at a small rate of interest or,
buries 1t in a tin can. A progress
i've in money matters these days
means a man who saves a few dol
lars and invests them wisely. In
some places this might be some
thing Of problem but in the MINI
bres Valley, where land values are
advancing so rapidly, it is very
easy.
One of our small farms in the
Little Vineyard tract, one mile
from Deming, is as good an invest
ment as man ever made. With fer
tile soil. plenty of water and ideal
climatic conditions. surely no one
need look further.
Already between four and five
hundred acres are under cultiva-
tign, and those who have already
invested surely have something to
look forward to in the shape Of old
comfort-luxury, IL you please.
Our contracts are so written that
you need only invest a little on the
start, but rather, pay for the land
as your little farm earns it. The
land is rich, the water is all ready
for you-all you need is desire to
better your conditions and pro-
gressive spirit. Come to our Offices
and let us tell you how easy the
start can be made, or write us.

The possibilities Of the Mimbres
Valley are fully shown in the splen-
did development of the Taylor farm
ten miles southwest of the city.
With one of the finest house gar
dens in the state and l60 acres of
magnificent crops, including a 20
acre field of wheat, just put in the
stack, and an orchard of from s to
10 thousand of the finest varieties
of fruit trees, it surely does look
good.
The governors party was very
much impressed by the show
ing on this farm, also the coy
home made artistically attractive by
the Taylor sisters.
Almost waist deep in Hund's
also looked pretty good to the San
ia Feans.

day for the same disease. DR..

Payne and Gates, relieved the gen.

Mr., Parish was brought in the
night before in very serious con.
dition and his operation was only
delayed on account of Mrs. Milster's
arrangements. Those who pass the
hospital now and see the smiling
face of a big man know tina, il is
H. E. feeling happy over the loss of
his appendix,
BY the way. there have been
seven successful Operations for
APPENDICITIS. in the Ladies Hospital
since January !. four Of which were
by local surgeons. Surely there is
no excuse in this city. for going
elsewhere for surgical or hospital
attention.

ton proposed by the French mathema.
tician, Fermat, about $50 years ago
This prize was offered about ave years
since and is to remain open to all com,
ers for a century.
Professor G. A. Miller, who tells Of II
IN a recent address on Modern Nathe.
NAUTICAL Research" fears that such a
large inducement may set all sorts OF
mediocre mathematician to wasting
their time.
The proposition to be proved is that
the sum OF no two powers except
squares Is itself a power Of the same
degree. Sums Of squares are often
squares-for instance, the square OF s
is o and that Of is 10. Add sixteen
and 9 and you have 25. which is the
square OF 8. But this has never been
found to be true for cubes or fourth
powers or any powers above 2. and
Fermat asserted that no such caser
would or could ever be found.
He proved It, too-at least he said he
had done so-but his proof is lost. and
no one has ever recovered It OF discov
cred another, although partial proofs
have been found for definite powers
for instance. for those that are mul
t1ples Of 8. 4, 8 and Of certain prime
