At the hour appointed about forty

The surprise look Of Mr.. and Mrs.

few minutes the invaders began to
make things merry, and the host and
hostess joined in the merry making.
Games and other social features were

well provided with the good thing

Mountainview got of to four run
lead in the first inning, but then jim
lIyder, who twirled for the local

Another potent consideration is the
fact that the farmer can fatten two
hogs behind every steer. That is to
say, he can take two l25-pound hogs
off his alfalfa field, and put them be-
hind one steer that he is fattening,
and each hog will double in weight
during the one hundred days that he
j. following the steer. The steer is
being fed ffty-fvc pounds of food
per day. and if he gains three pounds
per day in weight he i, doing we'll
the rest should 90 to the hogs.
Then don't forget this further
fact The manure from your feed
pens is worth enough to pay for the
labor Of feeding, The manure should
be put right back on the land, and
the profit on it will come from the
next years production.
This is no dream, but an actual
fact, but in order to do it the farmer
must install silos. There is no other
economical way 10 save the forage
crop. 1t has taken the farmers Of
the Mississippi Valley twenty years
to realize this fact, How long is it
going TO take the farmers Of the
Mimbres Valley to realize it7
! outlined the above proposition to
farmer n short time ago, and he
Immediately objected that he did not
have the working capital to purchase
the steers to feed, whereupon ! told
him that if he had the feed in the
silos to fatten twenty steers | would
guarantee to secure the money to
purchase the steers with at rea-
sonable rate, at the present time
there is not much better security for
money than steers with plenty of
feed to fatten them with. The MINI
bres Valley is shipping out every
month thousands of head of cattle
to be fed elsewhere. There is abso-
lutely no reason why these cattle
should not be fattened here. Under
our present system we have been
feeding forage to the crows and
sending poor cattle to other States
to be fattencd. This is poor policy
and bad business. Every farmer who
raises forage crop, even if it is
only a 5-acre patch Of milo maize
should install a silo, one above
ground if he has the means, but in
any event, a pit silo. There is abso-
lutely no difficulty in marketing ST.

MORE BUYERS HERE
FOR M|ESSE LANDS
TWO NEW WELLS BROUGHT IN
When the Wells Completed and
Under Way Are Done One
Third Is Reclaimed

a special Pullman loaded with
buyers is expected tonight from Chi

the Mimbrc7 Valley Alfalfa Farms
Company. When the twenty wells
completed or in process of compile
tion are operating one-third of the
company- l0,000-acrc tract east of
the city will be reclaimed from the
desert. Since the last issue of the
Graphic two good wells have been
brought n--No. 6 and No. 3. No. 6
well is l20 feet deep, has 35 feet of
water bearing material and is forty
seven feet to first water. A l6-inch
American pump has been installed
which develops l,j00 gallons a min
ute with no draw down. No. 3 well
Is liO feet deep, has forty-our feet
OF water bearing material and is fifty
feet to first water. With an lS-inch
Layne \ Bowler pump a flow Of 1000
gallons minute has been obtained
with no draw down. These wells
have not the heavy equipment of
some of the first wells sunk on the
property, but they are first class in
every particular and will deliver
more water when needed with larger
capacity pumps.
