MRS. R. E. ROWELLS
DIED LAST SATURDAY

Mrs. r. +. Rowells died last Satur-
day morning at her home on North
Merriwether Street, after an illness
of several months, which she bore
with much patience and fortitude.
The deceased was a member Of the
Baptist church and one whose Chris
tian character was exemplified in her
deeds of charity. In her, the needy
always found a friend, and the doors
Of her home, like her heart, were open
to all.
The remains were shipped for
burial to Palestine, Texas, her for
mer home, to which place they were
accompanied by her husband, Judge
r. E. Rowells, and her son and daugh-
ter, Forrest Long and Mrs. Ralph
Rose. Besides her husband, three
sons and one daughter and several
grandchildren, Mrs. Rowells leaves
many friends, by whom she will b.
sadly missed. The News joins these
friends in extending coincidence to
the bereaved family.

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
HELPING TO FIND
MARKET FOR CATTLE

The Clovis Chamber of Commerce,
in conjunction with the New Mexico
Cattle and Horse Growers association,
is trying to find a market for the sur
plus cattle in Curry and adjacent
counties.
Stockmen having cattle for sale
are requested to list same with the
Clovis Chamber of Commerce. This
list will then be transmitted to the
New Mexico Cattle and Horse Grow
ers association at Albuquerque and
published in the newspapers and 9TH
erwise throughout the feeding coun-
try.
The object of this plan is to bring
the producers in New Mexico in di-
rect contact with the finishers in
other states and thus eliminate ex-
horbitant fees which many cattlemen
in the past have been required to pay,
much to the financial detriment of
the cattle interests of New Mexico.
This service, both by the New
Mexico Cattle and Horse Growers
Association and the Clovis Chamber
of Commerce, is absolutely free to
all cattlemen whether they are con-
nccted with the Association or the
Chamber Of Commerce or not.

Big Year Ahead For Club
Work, Says Mrs. Durand

in the community means invaluable
experience to the boys and girls in
the actual business Of becoming bet
ter men and women, the young people
Of the county are beginning to realize
what it means to succeed in their
projects.
AS an illustration, the cooking team
from Grady won high honors at the
club encampment last fall They
then competed in tho contests at the
State College and wen first place.
They were then given a trip to the
Western National Stock Show at Den
yer, where they met with no compe-
tition. They gave five demonstra-
tions before the stock show audience
and made a very creditable impress
sion for New Mexico club work.
1t is not yet too late for other COM
munitics to start the club work this
year, according to Mrs. Durand, and
every community which has not al
ready made arrangements for its boys
and girls to get the bentfit Of this
splendid training should communicate
at once with the county club leader.

Club work for the boys and girls
Of Curry County will make better
record in 1921 than in any year since
the work has been introduced into
the county, according to Mrs. Edna
Hume Durand, county leader.
Eleven communities, Melrose, Bell
view, Texico, Locust Grove, Grady,
Ranchvale, West Chapel, Pleasant
Hill, Frio, Moye and Hollene, each
carried the work through to success
full completion during the past year
In 1921 fifteen communities will
strive for high honors in the goal for
better boys and girls in Curry County,
for Fairfield, Havener, Shiloh and
Ruth will also start the year with
standard clubs.
During the past year S12 members
enrolled in club work, and 2S7 fin
shed the work. Seventeen Of those
who dropped the work moved from
the county, leaving only eight who
actually started the work and drop
ped it before the close Of the club

BIC CROPS RAISED
IN BAILEY COUNTY
Some OF the Winners in Blackwater
Valley Corn Products Contest
Have Been Announced.

Awards have recently been made
in an interesting grain growing con-
test in Bailey County, Texas, during
the past year. Stephens A. Coldren,
owner of large tract Of land near
Muleshoe, offered last season prize
of 81 200 cash to the farmer Cf the
Blackwater Valley country who rails
ed the largest yield of corn products
(Indian corn, June corn, Kaffir,
Maize, Hygeria or Feterita) on fif-
teen acres Of land,
The prize was recently awarded to
C. r. Farrell who raised 42,l53
pounds of kaffir on fifteen acres
which makes a yield of about fifty
six bushels to the acre. Three other
contestants raised almost as good
rops as Mr.. Farrell. Robert Faulk-
Siler raised fifty bushels per acre; Lee
Lowery raised 55 bushels per acre,
and Fred Rice threshed 40 bushels
per acre.
Mr.. Coldren, who donated the prize,
has been in Clovis this week. Speak
ing Of the Blackwater Valley country
Mr.. Coldren said: "There are in the
neighborhood of 10000 acres of land
in the vicinity of Muleshoe that can
be easily irrigated on account Of the
water being only 9 to 35 feet deep.
This fine country will some day be
divided into small tracts and culti-
waited intensely. This section is only
35 miles from Clovis and the Magic
City is the logical trading point Of
that section at present"

CLOVIS TEAM DEFEATS
ROSWELL FIVE 70 To l5
Pecos Valley Lads Take Second Drub.
bpg From Clovis Basketeers.
Championship Still in Sight.

The Clovis High School basketball
team stepped up one more notch to-
ward the state basketball champion
ship when it defeated the team from
Roswell High School by score Of
20 to Is on the local court Friday
evening.
Though a little erratic at times,
the Clovis team displayed better gen.
eralshp throughout the tilt than did
the Roswell five, and Kent Hunt and
Foreman stood out above the visitors
in basket shooting. Early in the sec
ond half, Anderson, guard, went out
of the game with a bad knee and his
place was taken by Greer.
A review Of the score book shows
that Clovis has won two games from
Roswell, two from Santa Rosa, one
from Portales and has lost one to
Albuquerque. Albuquerque has lost
two games to Santa Fe, and Santa
Fe, in turn, has been defeated by
Las Vegas. This puts Clovis still in
the championship race, and game
will probably be matched with Santa
Fe or Las Vegas before the end of
the season.
Clovis High School and Pleasant
Hill will play for the championship
Of Curry County in the High School
gym Friday evening.
