UNDERWOOD.

Underwood is rapidly increasing the
already large acreage planted to apples
and pears. Clearing tLs raw land and
developing orchards is slow and expen-
slve, but the people of thiS section
have lots of energy aud will eventually
bring land to the height of perfection.
New roads are being built which will
open up large territory, and hTing
additional orchards in closer touch with
the outside. A number of the orchard
lists are planting alfalfa and other feed
crops, realizing that a diversity of
crops is beneficial and deos not iojure
the fruit trees. Alfalfa in particular
does well, averaging four cuttings each
year, without irrigation.
W. M. Kollock has disposed of his
crop of Yellow Newtown apples to Mr..
Oliver, of Leeds, England. The ship
ment went direct, via Boston,. There
were 600 boxes. and this was the first
crop from six-acre young orchard.

How they Extermfnate
'Horpers in Kansas.

Dodge City, Kansas. AS in previous
plaques the war ON grasshopppers IN
Ford county has resulted in many
.'ca npfre" stories by the veterans.
But one farmer has silenced all of his
rivals with this yarn.
The farmer said he lost his can OF
syrup while taking his poisoned bran 70
the field. He had full quart of whis-
ky which he mixed with the bran in
place of the syrup.
He said an old hopper would come
along, take bite of the bran, jump about
four feet in the air, spit srream of
tobacco juice" light down. take an
other bite aud then start out to lick the
first grasshopper he met. In this
way all the grasshoppers in tie field
were fighting each other. As soon as
one hopper killed another he soughtxa
new opponent and in this way there
was but one big hopper left. Soon a
rooster came along and made dive for
this hopper, but Mr.. Hopper. instead
of allowing himself to be eaten. jump
ed up and kicked the rooster in the
face, spit tobacco juice" in his eyes.
and chased him under the barn.
This farmer now plans to feed whis-
ky to his chickens should there be an
other hopper invasion.

Former Sierra Countyite
Making Good Raising
Fruit and Alfalfa

According to Rodeo, N. M, item
that recently appeared in the Ell Paso
Herald, Jim Reay, son of Robert Reay.
formerly of Kingston, N. NJ, is max
ing good as a farmer near Portal,
,rizona. The item says:
James Reay's ranch, near Portal,
in the San Simon valley, has an orch
ard of five acres that is the center of
attraction, bringing in as it does, an in
come If $42 per week. And this it
does for several months of the year.
The orchard is not in the mountains
either. 1t is out on the mesa. Many
old timers admit that apples do well in
The mountains. Here are rows of Ell
oerta peaches and prunes and plums
prettier than the most artistic painted
pictures. The apricots were harvest
ed before the other fruits began TO
come in.
Mr.. Reay claims that the rich color
and fine flavor of the San Simon valley
fruits are impossible to the California
grown fruits.
Mr.. Reay is partial to the Burkenapr
pie, as it doesn't bloom till May. He
believes, too, in trimming his trees
back severely. ls % There is not what
might be called a tall tree in his Or
chard. The apple is most liable to
lose crop, being blown off by high
winds. Peaches come into bearing the
second year. His alfalfa crop of seven
acres produced this year one and half
tons per acre. He gets five crops per
year. He delivers at the Paradise
mining camp, eight miles away, at $25
per ton.
He established his ranch seven years
ago, old timers making sport of him.
The laugh is on the other side of the
fence now. He has large adobe barn,
and is building a comfortable and
roomy adobe living house, with bay
windows and porches all around. Wat
er is piped VIII, rever needed.

When r.. A. KistIer Start
ed the Optic

Lutte Wilcox, a veteran editor of
frontier days, and who contributes
regularly to the Denver Field & Farm,
in speaking of the advent of the A., 7.
& Santa Fe railroad into New Mexico
in 1878, and the foundation and the de-
mise of mushroom town called Otero,
in Colfax county, he says:
..The top sheaf the towns import
ance was guided with re'ulgent glory
when Russell A, Kistler went over
from Trinidad with boot-full of sec
ond hand type which the writer loaned
him and set up print shop from which
was issued the Otero Optic because it
could see things and it proved the nu-
cleus Of a great publishing enterprise.
".Peace no less than war hath its con-
quests" and the printing press has ever
been the armored cruiser that set the
standard of progress in the arid places.
Like all good and noble things however
the destiny of little old Otero was soon
doomed to wither and fade like flower
cut down by the MONDAY sun. The
railroad the while was pushing on and
on and reached Las Vegas when there
was the usual pulling up of stakes and
in the stampede many poor old Jakey
was almost killed in the rush. Day by
day the dogs barked and the caravan
moved on, as they say in Roumania.
and Afero was soon destined to suffer

was loaded onto a hat car and Bill

INTERESTS FIGHT THE
 TARIFF BILL

One of the greatest oppositions put up by the interests in congress was to the tariff bill just passed by it and signed by the president. But even greater opposition by the in- terests has developed against the banking and currency bill.
 Geo. W. Glowner, the well known attorney of Williams, has just re- turned from Los Angeles where he came in contact with banking in- terests. The banking interests to a unit have combined to unit against the banking and currency bill and in consequence business of all kinds controlled by banks in all large business circles over all the United States are at standstill. City banks are letting no money out which they can control. The consequence is, MT. Glowner says, there is g shortage in all lines of values.
 The two principal provisions Of the bill the bankers have centered their oppositions against are gov ernment supervision anl the estab lishment of central banks in the various banking districts Under the present banking system as grown up in the United States there are only three central banks one in New York, one in Chicago, and one in St. Louis. The bank Ing and currency bill, however, proposes to establish about forty, under government supervision.

HELP IN MANAGEMENT OF NATIONAL
 FORESTS
One Hundred and Fifteen Advisory Boards Assist
 Forest Service
Spec al to The News.l

During the past fiscal year, &C., cording to a report of the United States Forest service, thirty-one local organizations of stockgrowers using national forest ranges have applied for and secured the official recognition of their advisory boards by the forest service. This brings the number of associations off cia3ly recognized by the forest ser vice to a total of fifteen.
 Through the medium of these advisory boards several thousand stockmen who graze stock upon the national forests now take an active part in discussing all problems of forest administration which affect their interests The result, states the forest service report, has been the elimination of misunderstood ing regarding the requirements of the stock interests and an improve mcnt in the methods of range con trol which has won the endorse ment and approval of the large majority of the persons who de- pend upon the national forests for the pasturage of their stock.
 Two of the 'stockmen's associa- tione are ratienal in their scope and one is a state organization. The remaining 112 are local orga- nizations The stocknen have, it is said, been successful in securing adrisorH boards composed of broad minded, unse!fish men, or w1de practical experience who have worked for the best interests of their industry, but at the same time have given intelligent consid- eration to the need for for5st pro- lection, and they therefore have directed their recommendations along constructive lines
 The recent order of Secretary Houston extending official recogni- tion to organization of other classes of forest users is said U have re- suited mainly from the large meas ure of success won by the coopera- tion of the government with the stockmen.
