IRRIGATION HEADQUARTERS, CHICAGO. 



The Pecos Valley Irrigation and Improvement Com- 

 pany of Eddy, New Mexico, have opened a suite of 

 offices, Nos. 417-420, in the Chicago Stock Exchange, 

 corner Washington and La Salle streets, Chicago, and 

 will have on exhibition a fine display of irrigated fruits 

 and cereals from the valley of the Pecos. This is a 

 move in the right direction, and will be an accommo- 

 dation to the public, as anyone desiring information 

 can there obtain it, accompanied by a practical demon- 

 stration and proof of the fertility and success of an 

 irrigated farm. The company will be represented in 

 Chicago by Mr. J. P. Massie and a corps of assistants, 

 who will be pleased at any and all times to furnish 

 reliable and accurate information, data, etc. Mr. 

 J. P. Massie is an old resident of that section of the 

 country, and has made irrigation a study and is com- 

 petent to inform the public, and is at any time ready 

 to receive parties who are or desire to become inter- 

 ested. The Pecos Valley Irrigation and Improve- 

 ment Company is one of the strongest and most 

 successful irrigation projects in the United States, 

 and has a record that is enviable. We predict that 

 this move will be of benefit to irrigation interests in 

 general. A cordial invitation is given to all irriga- 

 tionists to make this office headquarters while in 

 Chicago.

A new method of mining-, milling, roasting- and smelting- 

 different kinds of ores has been successfully demonstrated in 

 Germany and is now being- introduced with unprecedented suc- 

 cess. The slow and cumbersome methods heretofore employed, 

 will be discarded, and the cost of various ores in treatment or 

 conversion into metal, especially L.ead. Zinc and Silver Ores, 

 Nickel, Cobalt and Copper, greatly reduced. All the matte of 

 the latter, which was heretofore sent to Germany, is now being- 

 refined in the United States. THE HARTSFKLD GERMAN 

 MINING SYNDICATE, of NEWPORT, KY., invite* corre- 

 spondence. (See their advertisement.) 



I Will Get You Settlers, 



If your irrigation enterprise is not doing well for 

 the want of settlers, and can pay a salary of $1,000.00 

 and 3 per cent, commission on water sales and 1% 

 per cent, on land sales, try me. I make a business of 

 colonizing and am very successful. Settled 75,000 

 acres of Government land during 1893. Am thor- 

 oughly posted on the U. S. land laws and irrigation 

 of all kinds. I work on a different basis from any 

 one else one that brings in the settlers. References: 

 present employers. Also refer, by permission, to 

 THE AGE. Can begin work on 30 days' notice.
