E. B. thurman from Bedrock told
the LIBERAL last week about a
wonderful crop of wheat raised on
the river by Anthony Conner. 1t was
the biggest he ever saw, and said
that when Conner came to harvest
the wheat on that forty he had to
rent an adjoining eighty in order to
have enough Dor to stack 1t. Mr..
Conner was In town Saturday and
the LIBERAL interviewed him about
it. He said there was so much unoc-
cupied land in his neighborhood that
he did not have to rent room, but he
said he had the finest crop of wheat
he ever saw, and many old time
farmers say the same, some Of the
most enthusiastic Of them claim 1t
will run from seventy to seventy-hve
bushels to the acre. He started in to
cradle the wheat, not having a har-
vester, but 1t was so heavy he could
not carry 1t on a cradle. He got out
his moving machine and cut it as he
would hay, and stacked 1t up. He
is now negotiating for a thresher to
separate the wheat from the straw,
and as soon as he can get the straw
Off the land he will pillow and plant a
bean crop, which will yet have time
to mature. Mr.. Conner told Of thirty
acres of oats that are just ready to
head out, and of thirty acres of al
falfa, from which he had just made
the second cutting, which would run
two tons to the acre, Mr.. Conner was
congratulated on his good luck in his
farming operations, but he replied
that what he had described was moi
the result of luck, but of hard work.
although he had had a piece of good
luck the day before he came to town.
when two sows had presented hin
with twenty-one little pigs, this, as
far as he was concerned was pure
luck,

A Lordsburger has discovered a new
use for his electric fan. He takes a
air bath with it's aid. After he has
undressed for the night he starts the
fan going, having it convenient on a
chair by the side of his bed, and
moves around so that the stiff breeze
from the fan finally covers every part
Of his body from the tips of his toes
to the back of his neck, cooling the
skin, drying up all p~erspiration, and
producing a most delightful drow-
siness. When completed he turns of
the fan, drops back into bed, and is
asleep In no time. He says that the
first time he tried it he got 10 sleepy
that he dropped of to sleep, and
never woke up till morning, and
found the fan running, he having
been too sleepy to turn it of.

The county road board had a meet
ing last week in Silver City, and re-
solved to Immediately put in good re-
pair the road between the Luna coun-
ty line and Lordsburg. They intend
to do the work in the rainy season,
while the ground is soft and easily
worked, and they can get a better
line on where to put in the culverts
necessary to protect the road. Sur
veyor Cox is expected here this week
to lay of the road alongside the track.
1t is probable that the bottoms Of the
wider washes will be concerted, so
they will be hard when the water is
flowing, and will not be sandy when
the water is gone. This piece Of road
is a peculiar proposition and the board
expects to have to do some expert
menting on it, to discover just the
best and most economical way To
make a permanent road on that line,

Sheriff McGrath got a good offer for
his big Buick motor car from the Mo-

cars, and sold it. For actual use In
business his small car was much
handler and is the most used. For
Joy riding he is going to get a new

ments and accessories. One of the
troubles Of the automobile ownership
is that a nan gas got to buy a new

1t looks as though Sheriff McGrath
would have to detail a deputy to
guard and protect the soldiers on the
border below Hachita. The Mexicans
have been putting it all over them,
and they do not seem able to take
care Of their own property. First it
was a machine gun that was swiped
one night, run across the border, and
probably used in some Of the battles
of the revolution. Next 1t was oats.
1t was found that many bushels Of
oats provided for the feed of the cav
airy horses had disappeared. The
soldiers thought some COW boys had
stolen the oats, but when oats were
found they could not identify them.
The latest depreciation on the SOL
diers has just been reported. The
commanding officer has been sending
a soldier to Hachita for the camp
mail. Last Saturday he was return
ing to camp with a bag full of mail
when he was held up by a couple of
Mexicans, WHO took the mail and his
arms. He made a break and got away,
but the Mexicans shot at him as ne
vas running, and got n bullet In
the arm. Really 1t is not safe for
those soldiers to camp out there close
to the border, all by themselves. If
