It is time to plant cotton, for-
age crops and other tender plants
and the farmers are busily en-
gaged in putting this character
or seed into the soil.
Harry Moore is doing grand-
jury service this week, and made
it convenient to call and see The
Leader force. He has a splendid
farm out 15 miles north of Lam-
pasas on which he makes a
splendid living. Having been
raised a few miles from Lampa-
sas his many friends here will be
pleased to know that he is doing
well.
A Jenkins Easter Party.
Miss Hazel Hooper entertained
a number of her friends with a
“Jenkins party,” Saturday even-
ing. Miss Merlb Easters received
highest score. Easter sugges-
tions were carried out throughout
the evening.
A delicious salad course was
served to the following: Misses
Fay Yates, Helen Lytton, Enla
Brooks, Mamie Mitchell, Matha
Haby, Eloise Lewis, Maud and
Laura Marcee, Frances Liles,
Eva Berry, Madge Moore, Mira
Witcher, and Imogene Hooper,

Eas'ter Sunday was a cloudy,
gloomy, disagreeable day. Cold
north winds blew all day, and a
sprinkle began to fall about
10:30 o’clock, ariqL continued
throughout the afternoon. Only
about half an inch of rain fell,
but the rain and cold prevented
anyone from going out of doors.
Special services commemorating
the resurrection were held at the
Episcopal, Baptist, Christian and
Methodist churches, and but for
the rain the night service at the
Presbyterian church woul
been so devoted.^-Stmrgs^recita-
tions and sermons were rendered
which tended to show faith in
the resurrection of the Son of
Cod, and the adherence of the
people to Him as the divine Sav-
ior. It is goodtjto have these.re-
curring occasions of devotion
and that they help to fix the faith
of the young and steady the
allegiance of the older ones
is beyond question. All nature
at this season shows the power
of the resurrection, and human-
ity should rejoice and be glad.
The children of the Presbyte-
rian church were unable to give
their Easter program ' at the
church last night on account of
rain, but will give it "tonight at 8
o’clock. All are invited.
Born, Monday, April 13, to Mr.
and Mrs. Ray Logan of the Na-
runa section, a son.
J. B. Stanton is spending this
week in San Antonio at a gen-
eral meeting of the lumber men
of Texas.
Miss Mae Blair is at home
from Brownwood where she spent
Easter Sunday with her sisters
who now make their home in
that city.
Rain of a little more than half
an inch fell Sunday, and will
probably bring the “frosfcput of
the corn” to such an extenh.as to
remove the necessity of planning
over. It will also give the small
grain a new lease on life and will
almost bring the early oats to
maturity. Grass is also refresh-
ed and will take on a rapid
growth with the return of warmer
weather. Prospects at present
could hardly be better, though
some are still uneasy about the
early planted corn.
Ray Traweek, now making his
home in San Antonio, spent sev-
eral days of last week in this vi-
cinity with his parents, Mr. and
Mrs. S. T. Traweek. His father
has been quite sick, but is able
to be up again, and Ray has re-
turned to his work.
water. We have no water on
top of the ground. Twelve
months ago there were only four
wells in the valley, now there are [
twelve and three more nearing
completion, so you see this coun-
try is improving.
We have a good school with
forty scholars enrolled; have
Sunday school every Sunday,
but have no preacher at present.
There are people here from all
parts of the world. Cedarvale is
on the Mexican Central railroad,
125 miles from Roswell.
We had a complete failure in
crops last year, but are hopeful
of better times in the future as
we have a fine season in the
ground now.
Yours with many regards,
W. G. Dunn.

Cedarvale, N. M., Mch. 27, ’14
To my many friends in Lampa-
sas, Texas:
Will say that this part of Es-
tancia valley is as fine a looking
country as you will find any
where. This valley is from five
to twelve miles wide and thirty
long, with plenty of cedar and
pinion timber for fence postsand
nre wood, and plenty of pine in
the mountains for building pur-
poses.
The soil is a deep red sandy
loam, and is very productive.
The only objection is the lack of
Barker Briggs has sold all the
cotton seed he had to spare^ but
says his advertisement is still
bringing him orders for seed.
Thereby hangs another story
about that six acres of land, and
as Mr. Briggs is reliable, and
The Leader likes to give facts
that can be depended upon, here
is the story of what he did
the past year on that six acres:
Cotton sold in the seed, cotton
sold in the bale, and seed sold
after the ginning, to the total I
amount of $674.00, or; a little!
more than $112.00 per acre in the
one year. This land was irri-
gated, properly cultivated and
the best seed were used, and Mr.
Briggs estimates that he lost
something like $50 to $75 in the
flood of October. The Leader
believes in irrigation, and be-
lieves in the Lampasas county
farmers, and also believes they
should all own their homes, or as
near all of them as possible.
While this land is very valuable,
yet such crops as it produces
under the methods followed, will
not only pay for the land in a
few years, but will also make a
living Tor the family while the
land is paying for itself. Get a
home. A small tract of irrigated
land if possible, but get a home.
There is no country that can sur-
pass this as an ail round country
in which to make a living and
become independent.
Pain!: Now
If you ought to have painted last-
year and waited, how much do you
think you made?
You’ll buy an extra gallon this year.
There’s $5 or $6 for paint and labor.
You think you won’t, but you will; you
can’t stretcli paint.
It is always so: the longer you wait,
the more paint and wages. Besides
what paint is for. What is it for?
