1t seems reasonably certain
that spring has arrived at last,
although during the past two
weeks there have been three con-
siderable SHOWS.
The snowfall is registered at
Ia of an inch on the 18th, l IA
on the 10Th, and l 1-8 on the 10th,
altogether netting .27 of an inch
in moisture.
From the 9th to the 18th inclu-
sive it was clear and warm, also
the 21st to 24th inclusive. On
the 18th the maximum tempera-
ture was 62. The lowest was 13
above on the night of the 1920.
Farmers are hustling around
with plows and farm implements
and soon will be busy as bees in
the fields. Some fields are now
fit to work.

ROAD BOARD IS
STILL ON DECK

Among the bills passed by the
recent legislature and left to die
a peaceful death by Governor
Mcdonald, by way of the 'poc&-
ct veto" is the Blood Road and
Highway Bill. This bill sought
to do away with the County Road
Boards as constituted at present
under appointment of the COVER
nor, placing the road work in
hands of a road commissioner to
be appointed by the various
boards Of county commissioners.
Governor Mcdonald is of the
opion that the present law has
not been in effect a sufficient
length of time to have been thor
oughly tried out, and further
that the proposed bill fails to Of
fer anything better than does
the present statute. The County
Road Boards will therefore con-
tinue with the work as during
the past few years.

W0MEN'S PART OF
FARMERS INSTITUTE

For some months the Philoma-
THAN club had been correspond.
ing with Miss Dora Ross for the
purpose of getting her to come
to Estancia to lecture and demon
strate cooking for two days.
Last week they received word
she would be with them March
16. 1t appears that other parties
had arranged for five lectures
for that date including Miss Ross
which was earlier than her itin-
cry called for, and made it i'm
possible for her to stay but the
one day, but will return later in
[the spring to give the demon
stration.
The talk at the Baptist church
in the afternoon described the
Smith. Lever bill and what the
Extension University was doing
for women. She urged the wG-
men to make use of the Univer-
sity by writing for any informa-
tion they wanted in Home Eco
nomic work.
A round table discussion fol-
lowed. One lady wanted to know
what to do to get rid of the spot
ted bug that comes by the mil
lion and destroys the cabbage
and numerous other plants. An
other wanted to know what to
do for the little worm that eats
the green beans. These ladies
will receive literature on the
subjects with the formulas for
sprays and just when to spray
to eradicate such pests.
Literature is also to be sent to
the Philomathian club describing
the best method for preserving
eggs during the summer months
After the round table talk was
the talk on diet and nutrition.
This was illustrated with colored
crayons showing the food value
in different articles, such as,
milk, eggs, meat, greens, vege-
tables and fruit.
The evening discourse was on
textile fabrics, how to detect
cotton from wooden and linen
goods; how to detect pure silks
from those soaked in lead, which
do not wear we'll. Space is too
limited to enter into details, but
all who listened are anXiously
awaiting her return.
Miss Ross expressed her appre-
citation of the good attendance
and the interest shown in the
work.

FOR A HOME
CREAMERY

There has been quite a little
talk in times past o., a Farmers
Co operative Cream cry for Es-
tancia. but mere talk gets no
place. In order to get at the
real sentiment of the farmers in
the matter, a meeting has been
called for next Saturday after
noon, March 9th at 2 o'clock to
discuss this and similar enter
prises. All farmers and their
wives who are in rested in milk
cows, are urged to attend the
meeting and hav, their say and
learn what their .eighbors think
Of the proposition.
That the keeping - co.'s for
cream is a paying plU. Ion in
the valley has been proven be-
yond a doubt. And could the
cream be disposed of right here
without the expense of shipping,
the returns would be better for
the producer. The big thing to
secure a creamery here would be
the assurance of sufficient COWS
to produce cream to supply the
creamery. If you are now keep
ing cows, or intend doing so, you
can't afford to miss this meeting.

A LETTER FROM
W. W. CONDIT
Albuquerque, New Mexico,
March Is. 1915.

Mr.. or:-Enclosed find
$l.50 which | believe pays my
subscription another year. In
reading of what our old neigh
bors are doing and intending to
do this summer, | am wondering
how many are going to plant any
Sudan grass, feterita or sweet
clover. From reading about
these crops in the farm papers
which we receive both from Iowa
and Texas, | have come to be-
lieve that they, especially Sudan
grass and sweet clover, will do
great things for the valley if
raised extensively. A party near
here says last winter his stock
would leave every other kind of
hay for sweet clover hay, of
which he had about half a ton,
and he will raise more this year.
1t is claimed that it will not bloat
cattle and will cut two crops per
year, also that it will stand more
drouth than any other clover or
hay crop. l hope some of our
neighbors will try a small patch
at least of these crops and re-
port their success.
Well Mr.. Editor we read every
bit of neighborhood news you
give us especially from Blaney
and New Home, and say, can't
you just dig up a little more news
from the Blaney district without
crowding out any Of your other
correspondents?
Several parties who are here
from the valley have told me they
expect to return to their farms
either this spring or next winter.
Respectfully yours,
w. w. COndit.
Estancia news-herald. [volume] (Estancia, Torrance County, N.M.) 1912-19??, 1915-03-25

because of their exposure. AL
of Mr.. Milbourn's stock look
sleek and fat on a straight silag'
ration.
81 believe there will be dozel
silos put in this year as a resul
of the excursion made.
"There is a splendid opportu
nifty for the raising of chickens
in the valley. l have been
chicken enthusiast for New Mex
leo for several years and in the
party of farm demonstrators was
Mr.. j. H. Toulouse, who presen
ted the poultry industry with
great enthusiasm. The people
seemed to be very much interes.
ted and the man of limited capi.
tai who will take from 10 to &c
acres, put in a small pumping
plant and nice bunch of chick
ems and take care of them, there
is a splendid future.
"Estancia valley is just like
any other farming district. 1t
| takes work to make it good, and
lots of it. 1t is not paradise
for loafer, nor is it particularly
attractive to the man without
any capital. should say that
the settler should have from ST.
900 to $4,000, depending on
what he wants to do and how
willing he is to begin pretty mo-
destly on whatever he does. 1t
needs thrifty, hard-working men
and women. There will be coop
seasons and there will be bad
seasons. In the good years even
without pumping plants people
will prosper, in the bad years, l
mean the drouthy years, the
man who has a pumping plant
will prosper anyway.
Il do not hesitate to recon-
mend the Estancia valley to such
of your readers as may be look
ing for such a field, and l prophe-
sy that land values in that Sec
ton of the state will advance
steadily if the people who are
there and who come there are
developers. If the land is sim
ply held for speculation of course
that will interfere with the prog
ress of the community very seri-
ously.
The general feeling seems to
be in favor of cooperation with
the agricultural college in pro-
curing a farm demonstration for
that country.
"The oldest apple trees in
America are said to be on the
Manzano grant. If they get a
good live man as demonstration
to pilot the way there will be
some of the youngest apple trees
in America in that valley, and,
after all, the hope of the future
is rather in the young trees than
in the old ones. The foothills
furnish a wonderful opportunity
in fruit raising. No better ap-
pies can be produced in this state
and with good shipping facilities
there ought to be a large devel-
opment along this line. By care
full, conservative, but no less
earnest and enthusiastic develop
ment, this valley can be made a
wonder, and with it's advance
ment will come the advancement
of the New Mexico Central rail
road" - Albuquerque Evening
Herald.
