; AMlmAS VALLEY NOTES I


Crops Of all kinds are this year the
best ever known in the valley.
Mr.. Steiners, postmaster at AMI
mis-. has fine stock Of groceries
and enjoys n very good trade.
The Granite Gap mines are still
working full force and rumors that
they were shut down have been de-
MED.
The Mexican soldiers are crossing
the line and scattering throughout
the country. They are nearly all
armed with revolvers but carry no
other guns.
The report got around that Mrs.
Nick Johnson was dead, but Mrs.
johnson is very much alive and is
sending her best wishes to many in
quiring friends.
The present outlook for immigra-
ton into this part Of the country is
very good aud when the conditions
are known a large part Of this very
fertile valley land will be taken up
and put into cultivation. The climate
is ns good as can be found anywhere
and the water the finest ever. being
both pure and cold.
George Porter. one Of the farmers
IN the Animas Velley, has conducted
experiments which he thinks proves
the value Of the sunflower as an
ideal dry farming crop. Sunflower
seed makes one Of the best poultry
foods known and is used by all care
full feeders. A fair crop will turn
a hundred bushels to the acre and the
present price is 80 per bushel. Mr..
Porter sows about a gallon Of seed
to the acre planting in drills with
seeds two feet apart.
There will be a big barbecue held
at Pratt on August 81 at which time
the proposition of giving big fall
fair next year will be taken up and
discussed. Such fair would give
an excellent opportunity Of drawing
the advantages Of this valley to the
attention Of homeseekers and would
doubtless be the means Of bringing
many settlers. The Southwestern
railroad will help in such an UNDER
taking. There will also be horse rae
ing, bronco busting, foot racing and
other kinds Of amusements.

DAVENPORT MEN
IN WILD H0LD-UP
Highwaymen Pluck Tourists on
Stage Coaches in Vel
lowstone Park.

Gardiner, Mont. July 30.-Stage
coaches OF four of the largest trans
portation companies operating in Vel
lowstone park were held up yesterday
by two men. The los passengers on
the stages were robbed OF their mon
ey and II is reported the robbers OBJ
tanned a total of $1,000.
The hold-ups occurred near Sho-
shone Point. between Old Faithful Inn
and the Thumb Lunch Station AS
each Of the 35 stage coaches reached
the point of the hold-up all the pas.
sengers were forced to descend and
place their money in a sack before one
OF the robbers.
The other highwayman was station
ed a short distance down the trail.
preventing the coaches from retreat
ing to Old Faithful Inn to give the
alarm
The following is a partial list of the
passengers who were robbed:
Mrs. S. p. Kidder. Madison, Wis.
Martin Rutkowski and wife, Milwau-
kee.
Frank Bole, Davenport, Iowa.
Russell Bole, Davenport, Iowa.
Mrs. II. ]. Baldwin, Joplin, Mo.
Mrs. H. L. Cawley, Kansas City.
Lieutenant Colonel L. NJ Brett has
a large force OF men pursuing the rob-
bers, who were reported to be heading
toward the Jackson Hole county in

The transportation companies offer
ed rewards aggregating $500 for the
capture of highwaymen.
Passengers on the stage said the
one man who did the actual work OF
robbing held up each stage as it pass
ed the canyon by pointing a gun at
the driver.
The highwaymen had the advantage
because government regulations pre-
vent any person except those with per
mits from carrying arms in the park.

ness in Mesa, Arizona.
The paper published in Mesa, Ariz
has an article the past week that will
be of interest to Carter county peo
pie. The G. c. Suggs mentioned as
having purchased another produce
house and combined it with the one
he already owned in connection with
partner, is the son of Mr.. and Mrs.
II. S. 'Suggs of Berwyn. He attended
school in Ardmore and was at one
time bookkeeper for the Ardmoreite
Publishing Company. The news article
published in the Arizona paper fol
lows:
W. w. Mitchell and G. c. Suggs,
owners of the Mesa Produce com
pany, have purchased the interests
of l.. b. Johnson in the Johnson-Pearce
company. Mr.. Suggs, the junior mem
Der of the concern, has been the book
keeper of the Johnson-Pearce com
pany for a number of years and thor
Oughly understands that end of the
business. Mr. Pearce, the senior mem
Der, has had years of experience and
is well known in this and other sec
tions of the country as being a thor
ough produce man. W. w. Mitchell
has demonstrated that he can success
fully conduct business upon this line
The new company will continue the
old name of Johnson-Pearce Co. for
business reasons. The stock of the
Mesa Produce company has been
transferred and become a part of the
combined stock. Each of the part
ners are eminently fitted for special
work, and there is no doubt that much
better results will be had both by the
people and by the companies. They
have established a reputation for fair
dealing that will greatly assist them
in the success of their venture.
Mr.. Johnson, the retiring member,
has done considerable to establish the
high standard of the concern, but his
mind and personal feeling has been
the establishing of model farm home
for himself and family. He has been
working to this end for some time and
