Copper company at Santa Rosalis. B. c.,
uses about 90 tons OF hay monthly, the
most Of which is imported from Cali

American farmers are this year in
vestigating further the possibilities OF
increasing the alfalfa acreage in the
valleys OF the Fuerte and the Mayo.
With the abundant supply of water IN
these valleys, alfalfa can be raised
more successfully here than in Ari-
zona. and with the local markets TO
be supplied, this industry would net
the farmers a handsome profit

In reference to the matter of
a bond issue of S25. 600 for the
purpose of creating a high school
building in Clovis, no doubt a
portion of such building could
at present be made use Of, yet
it seems to me it is rather early
in the history of our new state
to launch too freely into propo-
sitions that will impose addition
al taxes upon the taxpayers of
our little city They are all
ready too heavily burdened with
taxes; especially during a bust
ness depression and money strin-
gency, such as Clovis has exper-
fenced the past two years. On
account of the high" state APP
preparations in many instances,
and unnecessary appropriations
in other instances, recently
made by our state legislature,
our state taxes will be consider
ably augmented over that of
last year. Our city taxes are
now too high and yet the pres
ent tax levy seems inadequate
to meet the current city expen-
ses, there being a deficit now of.
nearly $4,000 and still growing
larger each successive month,
and doubtless an additional tax
levy will have to be made to
meet this deficit. 1t is a matter
of fact that existing high taxes
