Growers Take
Up ''Checkerboard''
Range Problem

Problems which are said by stock
men in the county of Mckinley and
adjacent territory to have been hope
lessly hampering the expansion OF
their business for many years have
been taken up by the executive com
mittee of the New Mexico Cattle
and Horse Growers Association. The
difficulty is stated to lie In the fact
that the large railroad and other
grants in that section OF the state
have cut it up into a checkerboard,
SO that II is impossible for a stock
man to lease a continuous holding
to any great extent, neither can he
fence in any considerable area, and
the result is that stock runs at will
and many hundreds of head annual
ly stray into Arizona and many OF
them are never recovered.
The proposition now In hand Is to
take up a plan with the federal gov
eminent whereby homesteads will be
enlarged, federal control will be
transferred to the state, a means OF
blocking the lands instead Of check
erboarding them, changes in the fed
eral lease laws and the adoption OF
a system similar to that used in the
national forests. The two latter
methods received the most univer.
sal approval and they Will be pre-.
sented to the national department
Of agriculture for consideration.

Thousands of Acres
Of Valuable Land
in Oscuro District


The Ell Paso Morning Times has the
following:
There are thousands OF acres. at
least two townships, of public land
suitable for homesteads Of 100 and
800 or more acres each Of as fine val
ley land as there is unoccupied in
New Mexico, lying open for location
near the FL Paso e. Southwestern rail-
road around Oscuro, in Lincoln coun-
IT," said e. G. Rafferty,, on Oscuro, the
oil man, who is at the Hotel Sheldon,
and it occurred to me that this fact
should be made known to the soldiers
who are being mustered out in El
Paso, so that they may take up loca-
lions there, If they wish. And, II they
care to take advantage Of this oppor-
tunity, | will gladly assist any soldier
or colony of soldiers in furnishing
maps. showing where they can take
up homesteads and assist them free OF
charge. This land until a short time
& had not been surveyed. But now,
although not generally known, ii has
been surveyed. 1t is about 125 miles
northeast of El Paso.
Why the Land Is Valuable.
1T is believed by the best ~artesian
we'll experts that artesian water will
be struck at from 450 to 600 feet UNI
der the Oscuro valley. One well Is be-
ing drilled there at this time for oil,
a and artesian water, and at a depth
Of 563 feet the water raised to within
So feet Of the surface, and we think
that this well would flow If the wa
tiers above were oased off. But TO get
a big flow of water we should case off
all this water and then drill down 100
feet further. Then this water will be
cased off and we will go further down
for oil. Experts assure us that we
have SO chances out of 100 OF strik-
ing oil in paying quantities.
"The country around Oscuro took
first premium on apples at the ST.
Louis and Chicago worlds fairs and by
putting water on these LANDS you can
raise n kind of fruit and grain that
can be raised in any other country, ex-
cept the tropical fruits.
Find Coal Deposits.
we have deposits OF the finest coal
within three-fourths Of a mile Of the
town Of Oscuro. Besides we have good
deposits of copper and one some of
the claims there is planned the erec.
ton Of a concentrator as soon as the
money can be raised. We have also
abundance of fire brick clay, lime
stone. gvnsum sand stone and fine
potters clay for manufacturing pur-
poses. Besides, there are large ranges
for cattle and sheep and goats on the
mountain slopes nearby. Enough for
age could be raised on the valley lands
to feed them for adj time to come and
these are some of the reasons that this
Oscuro valley will DON become valu-
able for homesteads. l am very
anxious to get the soldiers to settle
up there or at least to investigate the
opportunities and will gladly help
them every way possible

60 CARLOADS FEED
STUFF SECURED FOR
COUNTRY STOCEMEN
HAY AND ALFALFA CHIEF COM
MoDlTiEs SHIPPED IN As RE-
SUIT OF WORK OF COUNTY
AGENT.

About sixty carloads OF feed stuffs
have been secured for the stockmen OF
Santa Fe county through the office Of
the county agent during the cold
weather Of December and January.
The greatest amounts OF materials
shipped in n hay and alfalfa, al
though several carloads of seed cake
have been received. Through conces-
sions in freight rates granted to ship
pers receiving certificates from the
county agents office, the stockmen
have been saved a large amount Of
money. In anticipation of a cold win
ter, the stockmen we're warned to Sc
cure supplies Of hay and cake in adj
vance. Some Of them did SO. This
winters experience has established
beyond a doubt, 1t is stated by compe-
tent authorities, that it is almost fu-
tile to endeavor to winter herds with
out a supply Of feed ready for use
when the conditions demand. County
agents throughout the state have
aided In preventing losses of livestock
this winter by aiding growers to OBJ
tain cake and hay quickly.

place holds and contends is a pledge
upon the part of this city to aid Mel

was located in this city. Melrose, ac.
cording to the contract or agreement

the location of the county seat to Clio

city was to reciprocate at that time in
supporting Melrose in the creation OF
still another county which should com
