1919 ANNUAL PASSES
BEING GIVEN OLDER
SANTA Re EMPLOYEES

The annual passes for 1913 are
now being issued to Santa Fe en-
ployes of long time service. Employees
who have worked for the company
thirty years or longer are being given
passes which will entitle them to
travel anywhere on the Santa Fe sys-
tenn. Employees who have worked for
the company for twenty-five years
are receiving passes which will allow
them to travel on the part of the road
on which they are employed. For
instance, employees of the Santa Fe
coast lines, who have worked for the
company the required length of time
are given passes which entitled them
to ride on the coast lines at any time
during the year. Passes to employees
on the main line are good on the main
line at any time of the year and are
not good on the coast lines.
The passes are signed by w. D..
story, federal manager. and not by r.
p. Ripley. as was the case with those
issued I'M previous years. The system
passes differ from those of former
years, too in that they are good over
the Grand Canyon road. Passes of
former years were never good over
the latter road.

somewhat Unexpectedly as she had
seemed to rally for some days after

were very encouraging until yester-
day.
Like one of the lovely roses of her
garden, the rare sweetness, and beauty
of her life gave uplift to all those with
whom she came in contact and her
going away will leave n void which
can never be filled. Among her books
and flowers she was ever at her best,
and it was the companionship of these
which so enriched her life and reflect
ed this enrichment of character in her
everyday home life. She was broad
minded in her charities, and none was
more willing than she to give of her

NelU Mexico Farmers Get More
Than $4,000, 900 In Loans From
The Wichita Federal Land Bank

Visiting various parts of New Mex
leo on business connected with the
federal land bank Of wichita, Kans.,
John b. McManus, secretary of the
bank, former Albuquerquean, arrived
in the city Saturday night from the
eastern part of the state planning to
spend two or three days here. Mr.
McManus, who was formerly city
clerk OF Albuquerque, and later war
den of the New Mexico penitentiary
was kept busy yesterday shaking
hands with numerous friends and ae-
Quaintances.
Having paid close attention to live
stock and. agricultural conditions on
his trip throughout the state, Mr.. Nc
Manus is in 4 position to state accu-
rately the prospects for the coming
year. He was enthusiastic over the
prospects for a splendid year for the
livestock men and expressed the opin-
ion that bumper crops for the farm
ers Of the state are now almost GER
tainty.
Speaking OF the business that the
federal land bank OF Wichita is doing in
New Mexico, Mr.. McManus declared
that it Is only within the last few
months that the people of the state
generally are beginning to realize the
great importance of the institution III
its business relations with the farm
ers and ranchers. and through them
all of the business industries of New
Mexico.
ut would take a lot of figures and
statistics to show that all of the things
that the bank has accomplished al
ready for New Mexico" said Mr.. Nc
Manus. 1.-THE bank in this state alone
has closed $2,200,000 in loans. New
Mexico bankers and business men
will realize what boon this tremen-
dous sum of money is to the farmers

Grating in the state charge $105 per

peated each year for the next thirty
or thirty five years, the maturity OF
the mortgages taken by the bank tc

glad to say that the business men of
New Mexico generally are getting in
behind the loan idea more and more
and encouraging the farmers to take
advantage of the system which has
been designed by the government to
help them financially in such a way
that in few years they will be indie

Ranch loans are now available to
New Mexico farmers according to Sec
rotary McManus. In the beginning the
officials of the bank were somewhat
handicapped, not being able to ham
