PN0eNeSS OF SOUTHWEST

W. E. Barnes, travelling freight
and passenger agent Of the Southern
Pacific at Tucson, arrived in Fl Paso
Wednesday night and registered at
the Paso del Norte. Mr.. Barnes is
always given a hearty welcome BY
his many friends in this city. He is
a friend Of FL Paso and never misses
an opportunity to promote its inter-
est. Mr.. Barnes is an authority up
on conditions in the Southwest, and
is actively associated with every
movement having for its object the
industrial development Of the count
ry. He has been prominently iden-
titled with the new industry, Egyp-
tian long staple cotton, which is nov
assuming great importance in South
ern Arizona and which is destined to
become one Of the chief products Of
that section.
Mr.. Barnes is a world traveller and
writer, and an occasional contribu-
tor to The Herald. He is creating q
world vide interest in the varied at
fractions Of the Southwest and is
greatly interested in the prehistoric
remains Of this country so abundant
and so little known. He nov has q
bill before congress providing for
their exploration.
In conversation with q Herald rep
resentative, Mr.. Barnes said:
Il am delighted to be in Fl Paso to
note its rapid growth and steady i'm
provement. / am almost constantly
travelling about, meeting people from
all parts Of the world, people who
have visited FL Paso. All praise this
city and its public spirited citizens.
This should be very gratifying. The
Southern Pacific company has a ire
mendous interest in FL Paso and the
recognition given the City as q dis
Iributing center, has frequently pro-
roked the charge Of partiality. But
for the unfortunate attitude Of GER
tain unthinking people towards cor
poraiions. the outlook for the South
west was never before so big with
promise. From Yuma to FL Paso.
here is wonderful development in
progress. Yuma has an endless sea-

When it comes to the question Of
real sport the farmer has them all
bested. He is the one genuine sport
in the national life. In the spring
time he CANDLES his summer wages
and the earning capacity Of his land
that there will be plenty Of rain in
due season and sunshine at harvest.
All that the farmer does he does
at the risk Of losing 365 days of
hard labor and the interest on his
capital investment for a whole year.
When he plants his early grain he
does it on q wager with Nature that
there will be no late frost or linger-
ing freeze to kill it in the sprout and
il, by chance, his planting is delayed,
be simply takes another bet with the
weather clerk that the drought will
not ''set in" early enough to blight
the fullness Of the crop.
The farmer plants an orchard-it
is chance he takes against the
canker worm and the cooling moth.

there is q field Of new mown alfalfa.
The farmer has made bet with the
elements he can get that hay ''eured"
and safely stored away before the
thunderstorm comes up, and on the
winning Of his bet depends the win
ter food supply for his cattle and his
horses.
The farmer stocks his pens with
Jersey Reds or Poland Chinas; it is
a chance he has taken that he can
sell the increase and lift the mort
gage on the '1c~er eighty" before the
hog cholera comes down the lane
from the next county and stops over
night at his place. He fattens a
bunch Of promising cattle; another
