Build Large Stock Yards

FL Paso's facilities for the hand
ling of livestock have been great
ly increased by the construction
of large yards in the southern part
Of the Cotton addition by the Ell
Paso Union Stock Yards Company,
a part of the Morris & Company or
ganization. According to a repre-
sentative of the company the capa-
cityof the yards is about $4,000 an
imals, or $4,000 cattle and the re-
mainder sheep and hogs. The com
pany also operates the Santa Fe
yards, on the river south of the
union station.
The Southwestern Yards, operat-
ed for some time by the Cameron
Cattle Company, were abandoned
in May, but the pens of the Union
Stock Yards Company and the
Southern yards are being remodel
ed at a cost of $4,000. These yards
are located on the line of the G. H.
& S. A.. railroad in East Ell Paso
and have a capacity of $500 ami
mails.

Ell PasO a Cattle Center

The entrance into the Ell Paso
field of Morris & Co., packers of
national fame, is conclusive evil
dence of the growing Importance of
this city as the center of the live
stock industry of the southwest.
With an investment of 100000
in yards and other cattle handling
facilities, the company earlier in
the year became firmly establish
ed in the Ell Paso market and will
henceforth play an important part
in the development of the livestock
industry.
In view of these developments
and others that have come about in
the present year, notably the
bright prospects for the establish
ment of a packing plant, it seems
that Ell Paso will soon become the
greatest primary market in the
United States, a packing center
and a money center for cattlemen.
Packing Plants Coming
Ell Paso's claim as a market will
be strengthened by the coming of
packing plants. That Ell Paso
will have packing plants is gener-
ally believed. The start towards
the organization Of a company to
build a small plant is already
made.
With only a few days of actual
work the committee raised about
half Of the $4,000 necessary to
build and equip the first unit, with
a capacity of 200 animals per day.
Eight of the ten banks in Ell Paso
are back of the enterprise, besides
a number of FL Paso business men
and business men in the Pecos,
Mesilla and FL Paso valleys. The
enterprise is being fostered by the
Chamber of Commerce and no
money for promotion purposes will
come out of the funds subscribed.

Rufania has waited with unusual

the central empires cannot gain vie

tiles must now be fairly conclusive, or
the old policy of caution would con-

Rumania's s limitation of her declara-
tion of war to Austro- Hungary is a
bold bid to Bulgaria to remain passive
before Rumania S territorial ambitions.
In effect. it is an intimation to the
Bulgars that Rumania will not inter
