ing in conjunction on the agricultural
possibilities of this county state that
in and around San Jon and in the
Porter Valley, there will be planted
not less than three thousand acres
OF wheat this fall. That much wheat
will be raised in and around Norton
and in the tight land region of Quay
Valley. Some may also be raised in
the Montoya Valley. The raising OF
small grains. wheat, oats, rye and
barley in the valley surrounding Tu-
cumcari will mean that Tucumcari is
to be the center of a large farming
country. Millions of bushels OF grain
will be marketed here, and the value
OF valley lands will increase and the
population accordingly.
The stockman who has suffered
losses on accoun OF depreciation in
the value OF cattle may |recuperate on
account OF the increased value OF his
land for farming purposes. Wheat
is the farmers money crop, and with
thousands OF acres being planted tc
wheat in the valley, Tucumcari looks
out on a bright future.

the dippy. mad magician as the
headliner. with a set OF tricks and
a line OF fun too contagious to be
resisted and on down through each

plenty OF variety and a good choice

and Girls, a short sketch with Lewis
and Norton. a novelty act offered by
the three Rianos, Clinton and Ca

Chinko and Kaufman. juggling

The same good choice used in the
selection of the acts for this week

liner is to be the Honeyboy Min
