ek.  Sudie  told  me  that  her  father  owned 
what  is  now  the  NAN  Ranch,  on  the  Mimbres,  and  that 
he  was  buried  in  the  cemetery  on  Lower  Mimbres,  just 
beside  the  road  to  Deming.  In  December,  1962,  Carl 
Mrotzek  and  I went  to  the  cemetery  and  placed  the 
Gamble  tombstone  upright.

As  typical  of  abandoned  cemeteries  in  New  Mexico, 
a barbed-wire  fence  has  been  run  thru  the  middle  of 
it,  and  cattle  have  knocked  down  most  of  the  tomb- 
stones. Just  a bit  of  the  steer  money  that  is  put  into 
Cadillacs  would  fence  all  of  the  early -day  cemeteries 
that  now  look  like  trash  piles. — Rhea  Kuykendall.

H.  I.  Peck  brought  out  a car  load  of  brood 
hogs  from  Kansas,  which  have  been  placed  on 
an  alfalfa  ranch  at  Duck  creek  by  Lyons  &

Campbell.
