FROM I. R. HARDING.
1129 N. Tyndall Ave., Tucson, Ariz.
Dear Editor: We arrived here
Tuesday afternoon, October 28, just
two weeks from the day we left home.
The first part of our trip we visited
relatives and friends so did not get
very far from home.
Our first stop was at Neligh Where
we visited my uncle, Wm. Bartell and
family. The small grain in that
county was good, but the com did not
give promise of more than half a
crop.
We stopped at Elgin and had dinner
and a short visit with Mr. and Mrs.
Walter Shutz, who lived a number of
years on the E. F. Roberts’ place north
of town.
We then went on to St. Ewdard
where we visited a cousin.
The crops in this vicinity were
much the same as ours, perhaps the
corn will not make as good a yield
or be as good a quality as in Holt
county.
From St. Edward we went to Elm
Creek where we stopped with a friend,
Orin Thayer, formerly of Inman, on
this trip we crossed the fertile val
ley of the Loup and drove about one
hundred miles up the Pir te river val
ley. Much of this is irri 'ted and we
saw many alfalfa stacks The com
did not look very good a; 1 much of
it showed the effects of frost damage.
At Elm Creek they thought that
corn would be about half a crop and
told me that the small grain crop was
above the normal for that part of the
country this year.
From Elm Creek we drove to Nor
catur, Kansas, where we stopped with
Mr. and Mrs. S. D. Gallentine. At this
town Mr. Gallentine informed me there
was an oil boom on, that several car
loads of material had been shipped in
and that they were going to start
drilling for oil there soon.
Most of the country on this trip
looked dry and as we were getting
out of the com belt the country look
ed more barren than ever to me. How
ever the number of elevators in the
towns along gave evidence of crops of
some kind and I was informed that
the wheat crop was good both in
quantity and quality this year.
From Norcatur we went south to
the central part of the state and stop
ped with an old family friend, Henry
Yasoner, of Arnold. At t’lis place it
rained nearly all night which was a
very great help to the fall wheat crop.
Practically all they raise here is
wheat, some oats, but the oats was
a poor crop this year.
This takes up the first week of our
trip and is the last visit we made.
We were a little over four hundred
miles from home.
From Arnold we went straight west
into Colorado. This was one level
road for one hundred miles, not even
a draw or ravine. The roads were
muddy and all through Kansas were
not very well kept up.
We drove about two hundred and
seventy-five miles in Kansas and did
not see a stack of wild hay, and not
very much rough feed of any kind,
mostly wheat straw, some cane and
corn fodder and some millet. I have
the impression that the farmers of
this section are having hard times.
They have very little live stock as a
rule while the buildings are old and
unpainted, much of the land is not
fenced.
There are no trees, most of the
towns seem nice and, clean, but are
not very large.
We drove a little over one day in
southeastern Colorado. Here we saw
many sights new to us. The gather
ing of sugar beets. The big beet
dumps and the large fields of canta
loups, the bowerys where the canta
loups are crated and many other
sights very interesting. This country
was all irrigated and had many fine
farm buildings and silos. There were
several large herds of sheep feeding
on the beet fields after the beets had
been taken off. We then came to the
coal mining towns along the Colorado
New Mexico border near Trinadad,
Colorado. We did not stop to look
through any of these mines, but could
see much of the machinery used in
mining coal,m also saw great heaps of
coal and coal slack piled outside the
mines.
We next came to our first Mountain
pass between Woolton, Colorado, and
Raton, New Mexico. Here we reached
an altitude of nearly 8,000 feet in the
foot hills of the Rockies.
I had alwavs heard of the carbura
tor troubles in the mountain altitudes
and by some accident got my carbur
ator set about right the very first
change I made with it. We passed a
great many cars stalled on the hill.
Some men were underneath draining
gas lines, some were pumping out the
gas lines, some were waiting for
motors to cool, others were cleaning
and draining the carburators. There
were large and small cars alike.
Then came the descent with its
crooked narrow shelflike road. I
literally burt up my reverse band on
this hill using the reverse for a brake.
That night in the tourist camp a man
from Ohio with a new six-cylinder
car stopped. He had passed me early
in the day and I passed him on the
hill; he told me it took him two hours
to climb the hill.
The next place of interest was
Santa Fe, the capitol city of New
Mexico. This is one of the oldest
cities in the United States. Most of
its streets are very narrow and there
are a great many Mexicans here.
The capitol buildings are beautiful
being built of a yellow stone, the city
had a splendid tourist camp, but
charged $1.25 for the night, giving us
a private cabin and garage with cold
water and electric lights.
From Santa Fe we traveled south
west for two days over some good
roads and some very poor roads. New
Mexico has built many miles of good
roads, but they do not keep the roads
up after they are built.
We crossed the state from corner
to corner and only saw them dragging
the roads in one place, while the roads
are cut up and very rough in most
places.
We stopped at Elephant Butte and
saw the government dam at that place.
This is one of the masterpieces of
American Engineering. It required
five years to build the dam and the
reservoir is fifty miles long and in
some places two or three miles wide.
I did not get to see any of the
country irrigated by this project as
our route took us west from there.
We camped one night at Lake Val
ley. This used to be a silver mining
town in southern New Mexico. One
of the old residents there told me this
had been a lively little town at one
time. That they had taken sixteen
million dollars worth of silver out of
the mines there and that there were
seventeen saloons in the town at one
time. Things are very quiet there
now. They are not operating any of
the mines and most of the business
places are closed and only a few peo
ple live in the town.
On our trip through New Mexico
we saw many herds of cattle. In most
of these herds the cows that had
calves running with them this sum
mer were very thin and we saw hun
dreds of carcasses laying near the
roads, all along the way. The grass
was short and dead looking and I am
wondering what this stock will live
on this winter. We did not see any
hay or roughage and I don’t believe
it is a costum to put up feed for
winter in this section, so it is quite
evident the stock will have to depend
on this barren range for winter susta
nence.
From Lake Valley we came south to
Deming and from there we came west
ward to Tucson. In Arizona we found
the roads some better although they
were just graded and badly cut up in
the eastern part. The last one hun
dred miles of our trip the roads were
the smoothest and best kept up that
we had on our rip.
After arriving here we found our
cousins place very easy and we took
a good rest after washing and clean
ing up.
Our camp outfit and everything we
had along was so dirty and dusty we
could not bring any thing inside. The
flour like dust of the road had found
its way into the trunk, suitcases and
everything we had along.
After two days house hunting I
located a three room bungalow that I
rent for forty-five dollars per month.
It seems like an awful lot to pay but
the house is new with screened in
sleeping porch and is only one half
block from public school.
Most every thing we have to buy In
the grocery line is as cheap as there
with garden truck and fruit much
cheaper. Potatoes are two cents per
pound, milk and eggs are high.
We will not have a coal bill which
will seem odd to us. The days are
bright and warm and the nights are
cool.
A great many have their gardens in
but the Japanese and Mexicans raise
garden truck and sell it so cheap that
it hardly pays one to raise their own
garden.
My wife and I voted Saturday, No
vember 1st. It cost us $1.50 notorial
fee and 45 cents postage to vote this
year besides quite a lot of running
around and formalities connected with
voting by mail.
Should any reader of this paper
come to Tucson this winter we will
be very glad to have you call on us.
We live in the northeast part of town
at 1129 North Tyndall Ave.

I. R. HARDING.
