SCENIC LOOP ROUTE is
LATEST STATE HIGHWAY

A scenic loop-the-loop route
to include the most interesting
scenery in the state is being
planned by the Clovis Cham
Der of Commerce in connec-
ton with cities along proposed
route. The highway will start
from Clovis over the Ab6 Pass
route. through Ft. Sumner,
Santa Rosa and Las Vegas,
where it will enter the noun
tains. Thence the route will
continue to Santa Fe and will
include all the Indian villages
down the Rio Grande through
Albuquerque, Isleta, and Be-
len. Then the highway will
take the Abo Pass route back
through the mountains to Es-
tancia, Willard, Vaughn, En-
cino, Fort Sumner and Clovis.
"This route should especial
ly appeal to tourists from
Eastern New Mexico and Tex
as who want to take a short
tour through the state, and
who want to see most of the
sights that New Mexico holds
for the visitor" said Mr.. Jones,
secretary of the Clovis Cham
Der of Commerce.
A similar route through
Texas is being planned with
the cooperation of chambers
of commerce. The route takes
the tourist from Clovis through
central Texas by way of the
state capital at Austin, and on
to the coast by way of Hous-
ton, Galveston and Corpus
Christi, then back through San
Antonio, San Angelo, Midland,
and Lubbock to Clovis.
1T is our plan," said Mr..
Jones, ito have our scenic loop
for Texas visitors in summer,
and the Texas loop for our
tourists in the winter"
Chambers of commerce of
cities along the New Mexico
loop are taking great interest
in the project, and Texas cities
too, are anxious to get their
loop completed and we'll ad-
vertised by this winter.-Clo-

ket the farmer should sort it
as to quality and size. The
Bureau Of Markets from time
to time has recommended
grade specifications for vari-
GUS products, and, wherever
these recommendations have
been followed, satisfaction and
increased monetary returns
have generally resulted. For
instance, it is estimated that
in 1919 the potato growers in

a half million dollars by grad
ing their produce. Similar re-
suits are being obtained in

SHOT TO DEATH

corona, July Z4tn I'M
morning Jim W. Gillespie,
prosperous rancher who's
home was nine miles east o
Corona, was shot and killet
instantly in front of the post
office at Corona, by Pascha
Luttrall, neighbor of Mr.
Gillespie.
1t is presumed that the mer
came to town close to thu
same time Saturday forenoon
Gillespie drove to Corona ir
his car about II a. M. He
stopped his car in front o.
the Stockmens State Bank anc
entered the bank, where he
remained for about ten min.
utes transacting business. AT.
ter leaving the bank he pre-.
sumably entered the post
office, next door, and got his
mail. In about ten minutes
from the time at which he
left the bank a shot was heard
and DR.. J. S. Stone, whose Of
flee stands next to the post.
office, upon looking out to in
vestigate the cause of the shot,
found MI. Gillespie lying on
the street with a bullet hole
in his head. Luttrall, who in
the meantime was standing
near, remarked to DR.. Stone
that he was the person who
fired the shot and was ready
to surrender.
There was no one who wit
messed the shooting save a lit
tie lad of about six years of
age who was sitting in a car
close by. He, however, knows
nothing clearly
The county sheriff was no,
titled of the shooting and
came and placed Luttrall un-
der arrest, taking him to the
county jail at Carrizozo. Fol-
lowing his arrest the prisoner
would make no statement a.
to his reason for shooting Gill
lespie.
Gillespie has been a resi-
dent of the Corona district for
several years, having come
from Texas. He was "a years
old and left a wife and one
child, boy about two years
old.
Luttrall is also married and
is the father of two small boys.
He is about 80 years of age,
and has lived near Corona for
the past two years.
The tragedy has caused a
profound sensation in the.
town and community, where
both men were well known.
1t is believed that the mys-
terry surrounding the shooting
will be cleared up when the
preliminary hearing takes
place.
Mr.. Gillespie's body was
shipped to Ell Paso for burial.

Swartz in the outfield got gen.
erous applause for brilliant

some great base running, run

The Carrizozo players did
equally well, the only differ
ence in the playing being that
the Estancia players managed
to bunch their hits so as to
yield runs in four innings.
while the Carrizozo boys got
together with the bat in only
one.

ESTANCIA INFLICTS FIRST
DEFEAT ON CARRIZOZO

The Estancia ball player,
went to Carrizozo last Sunday
and in a game that was wei
played on both sides inflicted
the first defeat on the Carri
zozo club which it has suf.
fered this season.
You can't get the Estancia
crowd to talk about the game
much. They trail off into
praise of the Carrizozo play
ers and people, and the treat
ment accorded the Estancia
crowd. They say they were
entertained like princes and
were treated in every respect
as distinguished visitors, not
only by the ball players, but
by the Carrizozo people in
general.
The Estancia crowd arrived
in Carrizozo at noon and
found a sumptuous dinner
awaiting them. After the
game they were entertained in
the ice cream parlors, and up
on arrival at Corona at eight
o'clock in the evening on the
home trip were halted and
treated to a good supper upon
order of the Carrizozo people.
All had their fill except Jack
Welch, who says he didn't get
enough to eat.
During the game there was
not an angry word and no dis
putes of any kind between
players or spectators, and the
Carrizozo crowd were as ready
with their cheers for good
plays by the Estancia players
as for their own club.
If all ball games could be-
played under such conditions
the sport would gain immense
ly in popularity and there
would be no criticism from
any quarter.
Let us start a rivalry be-
tween the crowds that witness
ball games, to see who can
treat the visitors with the
greatest courtesy and generos-
ity. Carrizozo has set a fast
pace, but there's nothing like
trying to equal it. Let the
Estancia crowd see if they
can't match it when the Carri-
zozo players come here.
The record shows that the
game was a good one. When
Two amateur clubs play a
game with >only three errors
each, it is pretty good bail
playing.
The Estancia players were
all in good form, and made
none of the ragged plays tnat
hey sometimes pull off. Ray
Burrus played a perfect game
behind the bat, while Mil
oourn in the pitchers box was
Is steady as a clock and had
he game we'll in hand at
every stage. He allowed ten
lits, but they were well scat
;ered and brought no runs ex-
,ept the two in the fifth in,
hing. Barkis Keen played a
brilliant game at first, while
B. Keen made some. great !
plays at second. Draper and
Welch at third and short were

estly think he is the best
pitcher in this country. Some
OF these ball players thought
they could not be beat and it
is a good lesson for them.
Hoping you are all we'll and
in first class shape when we
come over to play you. And
| also wish to tell you that
you certainly have a very
pretty ball player in that
short stop. /.

More Sugar for You.

People who have soft-ped-
aled the sugar bowl for six
years may be interested in the
statement that crop conditions
on July promised an in
crease in next falls sugar pro-
duction in the United States; +;
an increase amounting to, ap-
proximately, $4,000 tons, or
enough to load a train of
freight cars 70 or rs miles
long, allowing 40 tons per car.
This prospective crop is equal
to more than % pounds of
sugar for every man, woman
and child within the United
States, and the increase over
last year equals more than six
pounds per person. The su-
gar-beet crop this year covers
almost a million acres as
against the 5-year average of
about two-thirds of a million;
and the growing condition on
July was above the 10-year
average There is more than
half a million of sugar cane
this year, about half of which
is intended for sugar and the
other half for syrup, after de-
Quoting considerable amounts
for planting the next crop.
There is a substantial increase
in acreage over last year, es-
pecially in Louisiana, where
nearly all the. cane sugar of
the United States is made. The
growing condition of the cane
in Louisiana is much better
than last year but consider
ably under the average for the
past nine years. The Depart
ment of Agriculture, which
has carried on a number of
projects looking toward MAX
ing this country self-sustaining
from a sugar standpoint, is CO.
operating with other agencies
in protecting the crops from
insects and disease and other,
wise promoting the production
and utilization of a bumper
sugar crop. 1t should be borne
in mind, however that the
forecast for 1920 is based up
on conditions on July i, and
the actual outturn would be
above or below this forecast
according as conditions be-
tween July 1 and harvest are
better OF worse than average.
