A PROFITABLE
CROP NEGLECTED.

H. F. Mathews thinks that Es-
tancia valley farmers do not give
the attention to rye that that crop
deserves, this being especially
the case with those who are
milking cows. Mr.. 4 Mathews
last fall put out about twenty
five acres of rye. 1t was seeded
the first week in September,
came up at once and made good
growth. Twenty head of stock
were turned on it as soon as it
was big enough for grazing, and
remained till the rye was covered
with snow the 9Th of December.
The snow went off about the
10th of February, when the stock
was again put on the rye and
kept there till the 10th of May.
Eight head Of milk cows were
among the stock on the rye, and
they produced milk the same as
on grass, with no other feed ex-
cept very little in February and
March. The rye was cut July
10th and threshed last week,
yielding 1000 pounds. 1t will
be seen that, counting from the
first Of October, this rye field
furnished practically all the feed |
for twenty head of stock, for a
total of 148 days, and it was good |
feed at that The cows did much |
better than on any feed he could |
have given them except a. heavy
grain ration.

DEMOCRATIC
COUNTY CONVENTION

We failed to get q full report
of the proceedings of the Demo-
crat county convention last week,
ard herewith print some extracts
from the proceedings:
Ia the matter of selecting a
candidate for the house of rep
resentatives of the county, the
convention postponed such nom
ination and appointed a commit
tee Of five to confer further with
the prospective candidates. This
committee was given full power
by the convention to make the
selection. The convention then
endorsed J. w. Oliver of Duran,
as this county's candidate as the
floating" representative from
Santa F'e, Guadalupe and Tor
rance counties.
A telegram was received from
Juan c. Jarsmillo of Torre2n,
stating that business had kept
him away from the convention
and that from now on he would
affiliate with the Democratic par
ty. The news was received af-
ter the delegates to the state con-
venti0n had been selected, but
the convention to show its ap-
probation of the help offel ed by
Mr.. Jaramillo. selected him as a
delegate at large with the same
voting power as any one of the
five already selected.
The following are among the
resolutions passed;
We, IS taxpayers Of Torrance
county recommend fair compen-
sation for county officials, yet
commensurate with the ability
of the county to pay, and that
where the work is done through
a deputy that the sum allowed
shall go direct to the deputy and
that the incumbent may not be
permitted to exploit the wages
of the one who renders the coun-
ty the service in the conduct of
the office.
We deprecate the policy of the
MaDzano Forest Reserve as ad-
ministered in Torrance County
as unfair and iuiquitous, in that
from the money taken from the
grazier, the settler and the lum-
herman and the proportion that
is allowed by said manage
ment does not go to the schools
or the public Improvements so
that the residents of this county
receive any direct or indirect
benefits therefrom, and that we
recommend immediate payment
of all such funds due this county
from collections since its inaugu-
ration and the future as the time
of payment falls due"

DEEP WELL SCHEME
MAKES PROGRESS

The deep we'll scheme has pro
gressed to . point where S
Spore departed for Oklahoma
Tuesday evening empowered to
sign a contract with the drillers.
The contract sent from here
some time ago was returned with
some notifications, and at a
meeting held Tuesday other
notifications were made by the
people here which must have the
approval of the drillers before
the deal can be closed. Mr..
Spore carries the contract as
amended and has authority to
close the deal.
The contract as amended pro
Vides for the drilling of two or
more wells instead of three or
more, as at first agreed upon.
AS We understand it this change
was made principally because Of
the fear that we would not be
able to get up the land and leases
for three wells.
The contract was further
amended by giving the drillers
the option of abandoning the
field without forfeitiug their
bond, after driIling one we'll, pro
vided the one we'll is not pay
ing one. The drillers asked for
this, and psobably it is a precau-
tionary measure in view of the
tightness of money due to the
war in Europe Money is very
hard to get, and that fact is not
responsible for this change in the
contract, However, Prof. Rees
and Mr.. Thomas both stated that
one well would not be a conclus-
i've test, and it is reasonable to
suppose that If money can be had
they will go ahead and make
thorough test before quitting
the field.
A clause was added to the con-
tract giving the executive com
mittee of the citizens committee
power to define the boundaries
Of the districts. This has refer
ence to the stipulation that the
localities in which land is donat-
ed shall be divided into districts
for the purpose of locating wells
so as to make the location of the
swell fair to all who donate land.
The matter Of approval of the
bond to be given by the drillers
was taken up and discussed, and
j. S. Kelly, Willie E!gin and J.
F. Lasater were appointed a COM
mittee to pass upon the bond.
The form of the lease to be
used was discussed and agreed
upon.
Thus, the jong-agitated deep
we'll scheme is again approach
ing a point where iC will be up to
The land owners Of the valley to
DO their part, and it cannot be
100 strongly impressed upon the
absentee land owners that the
success or failure Of the scheme
depends upon them. They must ,
get in the game or the enter ,
lrise will fall through II it is
expected that the stayers will do
t all, there will be a sad disap-
oointmeGt, because the stayers
can't do it.
