BEANS AND BUTTER

Mountainair, N. NJ, Nov. a.
Especial correspondence Beans
and butter will be the "War
Babies" the farmers and mer-
chants of this community will
pin their faith and prosperity on.
This was decided November Is
at a meeting called by County
Agent Harwell. The idea was
Mr.. Harwell's and it was heartily
concurred in by those attending
the meeting. Mr.. Harwell said
that he had, through his study of
the farming possibilities of the
Estancia valley, become thor
ough!y convinced that beans can
be raised profitably and that
dairying is a good and safe prop
osition.
These, he said, had been DEM
onstrated and all that was need
ed now to insure the future
growth and prosperity of the
country was for the people to
get busy with them and engage
in a little cooperation. The peo-
pie should get together-mer-
chants and farmers. A closer
relationship should be establish
ed. There should be mutual
confidence. The merchant who
is willing to carry the farmer
should, the same as the banker,
be given the full confidence of
that farmer. The two should

SCHOOL NOTES

Our teachers attended the
State Teachers Convention at
Albuquerque last week and re-
port a profitable trip. They re-
port a great fight against litter
acy being waged in Kentucky
and other states, and also report
that some superintendents of
this state will soon be having
moonlight schools" for the
purpose of the elimination of il
literacy from New Mexico.
While they enjoyed the conven-
ton and derived great benefits
from it, yet they felt themselves
needed at Estancia more thap at
Albuquerque, and are rejoicing
to think they will not nave to
suspend school during the COM
ing holidays.
Instead of the regular program
that the Literary Society gives
there will be spelling match.
The basket ball practice is pro-
crossing nicely and we hope to
play matched games with neigh
borinp towns some time in the
near future.
We now have an enrolment of
ia. Reba and Roy Hollis en-
tered school Monday.

work together. Co. operation
and organization were essential
to the best results, both from a
fraternal and business stand
point.
To accomplish this it was de-
cided at the meeting that a
monthly get-together dinner
should be held at which mer-
chants, farmers and their wives
should rub elbows, toasts made,
and fat hens and baked squashes
disposed of. 1t is a fine idea. 1t
will be picnic and a good busi-
ness proposition too.
Mountainair will have its first
dinner the first Saturday in De-
cember. John W. Corbett was
appointed POSTMASTER and Prof.
Charlie Burt and C. H. Cumiford
were appointed a committee on
eats. Everybody is invited, but
they must pay for their own din
ner. That makes the proposition
an open house affair and places
the responsibility equally on all
alike and no one will feel the
least bit obligated. Much good
is bound to result from such
gatherings. And there will be a
chance for a little horse trading
on the side. Don't forget the
date, and consider yourself in
vited whether you live in the
Mountainair community or not.

The grand jury had also been
Informed that section lines in
the county have been fenced up,
and request the Road Board or
County Commissioners to take
the proper steps in the matter
and open and maintain public
roads and highways throughout
the county.
The report further stated that
certain evidence had been found
frelative to the management and
mode of doing business of the
Stockmen's Guaranty Loan Co.
of Albuquerque, making it ap-
parent that persons investing in
this company have very little
chance of recovering or receiv-
ing any value for their invest
ment, and requesting the attor-
ney general or proper authority
to investigate and institute prop
er proceedings to dissolve the
said corporation in order that the
public may be protected.
There was also a report stating
that evidence had been produced
which, while not sufficient upon
which to base an indictment, led
to the inference of official mis-
conduct upon the part of Sosteno
Montoya, justice of the peace Of
Precinct No. 3, and recommend
ing that the district attorney in
vestigate the matter, and if cir
cumstances are found to war.

moval of the said officer.
The list of indictments re-
turned by the grand jury have
not yet been made public.

Mr.. Bedford and T. S. Smith
have been searching for gold
mine in the Pedernal mountains,
but George Pope beat them to it.
He went up there with his traps
and in nine days captured nine
bobcats and fifteen coyotes. The
bounty on these will bring him
$48, and the pelts will bring
probably an average of So each,
making a total of $12O. That is
$13. 33 day, which is a pretty
good gold mine.
The meeting of farmers and
business men at dinner at the
Commercial Hotel last Saturday
was quite satisfactory for first

seated had finished their meals,
short talks were made by Coun-
ty Agent Harwell, Attorneys
Fred H. Ayers and G. W. Prich-
ard, and Mayor Stubblefield and
Rev. N. w. Bard. The talks
were principally along good fell
lowship lines and the state of ag-
riculture, and all breathed con-
fidence in the future of Torrance
county. The next affair of the
kind will be at the Valley Hotel,
when it is hoped even greater
number will be present and a

threatened to withdraw from the associa-
tion If Baker Is not allowed to play.
President Rogers stated that II Baker
had played last Saturday with the Upland
Club he would penalize the club $50 and
forfeit the game. but Baker very OPP
portunely received n broken rib by falling
down stairs in his Trappe home. and re-
ports have 1t that he will not play until
this Saturday.
There promises to be a real interesting
time at the Philadelphia Athletic Club
where the special meeting has been call
ed It is reported that the leagues who
will back Hackney will be the Philadel-
phla Suburban, Northeast Philadelphia
Main Line. Interborough and Burlington
County. The Delaware County and Del
aware River are expected to vote against
the protest.
