MAKING CONCRETE
IRRIGATION TANKS
Home Plot COmpanys Developed
Tracts Will Be Equipped for
Water Storage
FOR CHEAPER ELECTRIC RATES
Local Concern Adopted Concrete
Block Construction Instead
of the Earth

The first of the storage tanks
made Of poured concrete blocks for
the Home Plot Company's 90 10
and 5-acre tracts was completed at
the factory of the Turney Construc-
ton Company, north of the city, last
week. The intention Of the Home
Plot Company in the beginning was
to make the storage tanks Of earth,
but the economy of more substan-
tial material was SO evident that cx.
periments were made and the poured
concrete blocks were found to be
very suitable and not prohibitive in
price, and were adopted.
\ DURABLE MATERIAL
These blocks are the same as those
used in the construction Of the COM
panys houses and it is safe TO say
that no more durable material could
have been found and none more at.
tractive when pebble dashed after
the Spanish fashion. The capacity
OF the tanks placed on the 2O.acrc
tracts will be $4,000 gallons and
those for the smaller acreagcs in pro.
portion.
ATTRACTING ATTENTION
The development being done BY
Mr.. Laughren and his associates has
attracted widespread attention III
distant sections. Commenting last
Sunday on the work the I'll Paso
Times under the head Of "Deming's
Example" said
A concern operating at Demlng,
realizing the value of actual set
tiers, has cut up n tract OF several
thousand acres in the Mimbres
Valley into FIVE to twenty acre
farms, upon each of which 1t builds
concrete house of five rooms
with bath, toilets, running water,
etc.. borcs a well, installs pump.
u ing plant large enough to irrigate
t the farm and ill tanks for domes-
tic purposes; fences the land with
{ rabbit proof wire fencing clears
Il plows, levels, bitches and borders
the land, making it ready for
planting, and sells it to the settler
J. on easy terms.
N MAY BE TRIED on ISLAND"
,e The plan is working out so well
W that the owners and directors Of a
lc big tract of land on the Island
id at Fabens. Texas, are contemplate
Dc ing a similar plan, except that on
to the "Island" water for irrigating
te purposes will be had from the Elc'
IS. phant Butte dam instead of from
It. wells-all irrigation in the MIN
1t bres Valley is done by means o.
is pumps.

SHIFTING QUARTERS
The telegraph department will be
moved to the roadmaster's present
quarters, the former to occupy one
of the section houses south OF the

alton has been received here il seems
possible that the original plan an
nounced some time ago by the
Graphic will be followed. The ticket

for largo horseshoe lunch counter.
There will be rest room and smok-
ing room opening from the present
ladies' waiting room on the west

: dining room will be overhauled ant
e re decorated and have II new hard
5 wood floor. The Office and bar vii
$ also receive attention.
I EXTERIOR TOO
h The important interior improve
G ments will, of course, call for in
Z provements to the exterior. The pres
d ent plan contemplates a pebble das

ANOTHER ROMANCE SPOILED

The hearts of Louisiana's Senators
are filed with grief For weeks they
have been making tender eyes at Sen
ator Walsh of Montana in the fond eX.
pectation that between sugar and
wool there was to be a perfect union
of souls. They were assured in ad-
vance OF the Republicans blessings
and now, without a moments warning
Montana has Tilted Louisiana and LETT
her abandoned and disconsolate.
1t was a pretty romance while it
lasted. By the mating of their for
tunes and votes sugar and wool to de-
feat all the schemes of the wicked
Democrats and live happily ever after.
1t was as pleasant as fairy tale, but
it did not come true. If sugar and wool
part, nothing can be done to defeat
the Democratic Tariff bill by Demo
cratic votes. The dream of the two
Louisiana Senators has vanished into
thin air, and it is all Senator Walshs
fault.-New York World

directorates was aimed chiefly at
trusts, and he urged Democrats to
stand by the president" and not to
load down the currency bill with any
amendments which might endanger its
early passage.
President Wilson last night, express
ing his warm admiration for the way
which the House caucus was doing its
work under guidance of the commit
tee on banking and currency, issued
the following statement:
Il am proud as every Democrat
must be, of the way in which the com
mittees and the caucus have accom-
plished a consistent piece of construc-
tive work. With the frankest discus
sion and under the ablest leadership
the Democrats have shown their capa
city as a party to serve the country by
an admirable piece of business legis
lation. 1t must stimulate the country

The difference between MERRY
WIDOW, the original self-rising pastry
flour, and the OTHERS is this: You
can use water in mixing MERRY
WIDOW and your biscuit and pastry
will cook up tough and plant just
like a good old-fashioned Milk and
Soda biscuit and will remain so just
as long instead of baking up, when
water is used instead of milk, short
and crusty like a baking powder bis
cult you formally made in your own
kitchen, which will get hard if left
over from one meal to the next. This
is what we term a SUCCESS and a
SATISFACTORY SELF-RISING pas
try -four. Try MERRY WIDOW and
the OTHERS out according to the
above in your own kitchen and watch
the results. The Ingredients in MER-
RY WIDOW flour are said by leading
