Santa Fe Reducing
Number of Employees

Following their usual retrench-
ment policy at this season of the
year, only on a greater scale than
ever before. the Santa Fe COM
pany has discharged a large
number Of EN- ployes in the past
two weeks. 1t is said that in
some departments the number
discharged exceeds one half.
This is not the case alone in
Clovis. but all along the line. In
Albuquerque the payroll is less
than half what it was last fall
and the same conditions prevail
in Amarillo and other division
points. Just how far this saving
effort will extend, no one can
foretell but it is generally known
that the Santa Fe business and
that of other roads is very light
when compared with what it was
in former years.
1t is not generally expected
that this policy will long effect
Clovis, for the simple reason
that it will soon be the division
on another contentinal road,
which it is now said will be in
operation by the operating de-
partment by the first of March.
This new Gulf to Pacific line Is
now putting down the best road
bed in the southwest and getting
ready for traffic to the Panama
Pacific exposition. 1t also ex-
poets to compete with the South
ern Pacific for the heavy south
ern coast to coast traffic. This
is ore reason why the Clovis
people are not worrying over the
situation.

Farmers Day Celebration
To Be Held Soon.

At a meeting of members of
the Clovis Chamber of Commerce
held in the Rice Furniture Store
Building Tuesday evening, ways
and means were discussed by
each Of the committee to encour-
age Silo Building, Dairying,
Stock Raising. Hog Raising and
in fact everything and anything
that in their opinion would ad'
vance the interests of the Curry
county farmer and stock raiser.
The prospects that this will be
one of the best years in the his
tory of the county, Is what large
ly prompted them to get busy
and do something and let the
world know what We have here
as well as promoting the inter-
ests of those already here. 1t
was decided that at a rouslng
meeting of the Chamber of Com
merce which will be held Friday
night at the Elks Hall. that the
committee would recommend
that a Farmers day be held in
Clovis soon which should have
the approval and backing of the
Chamber and that some plans be
devised to advertise the resour-
ces of the country abroad and at
the same time in a way assist
those who are now here to build
silos and if necessary to purchase
more stock.
It was also suggested that
some prominent speakers be in
vited to attend the farmers day
celebration and that further eff
fort be made to encourage the
planting of Soudan Grass (the
new forage that is becoming so
popular on the plains), Feterita
and other forage crops especially
adapted to this country.
Different methods were dis
cussed as to the best means of
bringing people to this country,
such as personal letter writing,
writing to newspapers, advertis-
ing and sending a representative
to the east or south to tell the
people personally about the ad-
vantages of the country.
The secretary will call p
every business man in town.
who usually takes an interest in
progress and development t o
O., &c out to the meeting.
