NEW FIRM PUTS IN
COMPLETE ELECTRIC STOCK

II. Wilson, an electrician ana ir-
rigation engineer, has formed a part
nership with W. N. Haste and has
opened up an electric supply house
at lO7 Silver avenue. A very COM
plete stock of goods has been order
ed, and the concern expects to enter
this field with the best prospects for
business.
Mr.. Wilson came here about two
weeks ago from southern California
where he handled large numbers OF
Meiiz and Weiss engines and install
led large number Of pumping plants
for farmers. Deming seemed to Mr..
Wilson to offer larger field for his
efforts and he decided to go into
business here.
The firm is prepared to do house
wiring, install fans, irons, in fact
anything in the electric line.
Mr.. Wilson is n native Of Georgia
having resided in Savannah before
going to California. His success IN
irrigation engineering there will, no
doubt. be duplicated here.

RACE FOR TRUSTEES
WILL Be CLOSE ONE
COMPROMISE Is IMPOSSIBLE
Opposition Decides 10 Hold Public
Convention Tomorrow Afternoon
to Name Their Candidates.

Interest IN the coming election OF
village trustees was augmented
early this week when the present
board formally announced thai its
members are candidates for rc-clcc-
tion and that they will neither com
promise nor allow their names to be-
placed on any other ticket. The
frGgressivcs, composed Of some of
the younger citizens of the city, pro
mptly decided To hold II convention AT
2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon at the
Crystal theater when ticket will be
nominated in opposition.
Speculation as to the result of the
election was the topic of general
conversation on the streets and at the
places of public assembly. So far
il is easy To find numerous supporters
for both factions who will stake
their word on their beliefs. The
election will BE- held April :. and il is
expected that the interval will see
some busy campaigning.
Il is hard to find any special issue,
apart from the clash Of conservative
and progressive ideas which. it is
claimed. the two factions hold.

OEMlNG NATIONAL BANK
OFFERS BONDS FOR SALE

The Deming National Bank, which
bought Luna County school bonds
last fall to the amount Of $4,000, has
placed these bonds on the market at
par.
A premium has been offered for
the bonds by outside persons, but the
bank prefers to sell them to local
investors for the purpose Of giving
them the advantage Of a safe and
conservative investment netting six
,,er cent. Tn bonds are in denomina-
tons Of 800 each.
The action of the Deming National
Eank is highly commendable and IL
lustrates the spirit Of desiring to as

existed among the financial institu-
tons in this community.

Demonstration Farm VIII Have A
Hundred Acres Seeded TO
Alfalfa This Coming Season.

The Rio Mimbres Company is en-
gagged in the planting Of a 30-acre
cottonwood grove west Of Spalding
construction camp, which will ex-
tend along the railroad for a mile
and which is 800 feet wide. The
trees planted ARE already far along
in growth and in two years will be
quite large trees. This is but the
beginning OF an extensive park sys-
TEN already planned by the baseball
magnate and which will form part OF
the attractions Of the city Of Spald-
ing.
Tn large commercial orchard on
the demonstration farm will be en-
larged to forty-fve acres through the
planting of additional apples, pears,
and peaches. The alfalfa acreage
will also be augmented by forty more
acres now being seeded and will make
n total Of about n hundred acres of
"long green"

REAL PARKWAY At UNION STATION
Is Being PUSHED TO COMPLETION
One Hundred Carolina Poplars Being
Set Out, Additional Grass Seeded,
Cement CurbIngs, Fountain, and
Bridges Planned by Railroad,

Through the cooperation of the
Deming Chamber of Commerce and
the Southern Pacific Company, the
work of making an attractive park
at the Union Station is being rapidly
pushed to completion. As in most
cities the station is surrounded by
the less attractive buildings and the
park will make an effectual screen TO
shut of the unpleasant vista of
adobe walls, vacant lots and rambling
shacks.
Under the supervision Of Charles
Butler and Claude Shaun, a gang of
laborers are busy planting two rows
of Carolina poplars which will ex-
tend the entire length Of the park.
Additional space, in fact all the
space remaining, is being prepared
for more blue grass lawn. A cement
curbing will be placed around each
seed bed, the water mains will be ce-
mented and will be bridged where the
travel is directed. A concrete foun-
tain and fish pond will occupy the
center Of the well planned parkway.
The asphalt walks and drives have
been completed. Around them it is
planned to place a border Of orna-
mental shrubbery and flowers.
Later, too u greater variety Of trees
will be planted. A caretaker has
been permanently engaged by the
railroad company to keep the park in
the best of order.
