has been received by Luis Monies de
Oca. Mexican consul who has been
charged by the de facto government
with making the purchases. Some
thing Of the size Of Villas farming

the fact that the order includes har-
ness for 1900 mules and 500 plows.
What the outfit viii cost the Next

until Mr.. Monies de Oca gets a list
Of prices. Many Of the contracts viii

That the former bandit intends
growing hay on a large scale is sug-
gestad by the fact that the order
calls for 20 moving machines and 400
scythes.
Road building and other land i'm
provements are contemplated as 80
scrapers. 500 shovels, 500 spades. 800
picks and 800 axes are called for
