Is Who?
Each day adds to the interest shown in
The Herald's "Who Is Who" advertising
contest which appears next Wednesday,
July 26th. It is barely possible that some
live advertiser has been overlooked in the
rush. If such is the case, telephone the
Advertising Dept--both phones and the
"Who Is Who" promoter will call at once
and explain in detail the value of the
"Who's Who" contest.
Who Is Who
It is a "business fact in El Paso that The Herald is the one
paying medium when it comes to advertising. The "Who
Is Who" contest "besides being a vehicle for conveying gen
eral publicity will be made specially interesting by liberal
cash prizes given by The Herald to readers and advertisers.

line is about lour miles out from Ele

'so that an Incoming train will stop at
the summit and notify the office so
that the motor -car will not "leave camp,
thus avoiding any collision in the fu
ture. Mr. Reed, the only one painfull- hurt
in the last accident, is mucn improved.

He was accompanied to this place by
W. H. Frankland, chief clerk for the
reclamation service In New Mexico,
who' will spend several days here.
The river has been quite high here
recently, but not as (high as several
weeks ago.
Work Progressing.
"Work is progressing rapidly here on
the various lines of reclamation work.
A great many of the preliminary re
quisites have been accomplished. Con
siderable machinery is arriving and
being installed. Additional laborers
have been added to the various gangs
Two derricks, Nos. 2 and 4, are aid
ing in the excavation for the flume on
the west side of the river. Ztetrick No.
3 will soon be in operation; derrick No.
1 is temporarily out of commission.
The excavated material is now being
hauled out over the new standard gage
track by means of the dinky engine,
and the 12 yard dump cars. Tne exca
ration can now progress more rapidly
with this new equipment.
Plume Very Lob.
The flume will be 1000 feet long and
will require the excavation of 75,000
cubic yards of material,wmostly rock.
This flume will be used as a by-pass
for the river during the time required
to lay the foundation of the dam.
. ' Buildings Spring Up.
Great progress has been made on
the buildings being erected by the re
clamation service. The office men's
mess is practically completed. The
new cottage being erected for Mr.
Schmaulhousen will be ready for oc
cupancy in a short time. The office
men's dormitory is now under roof.
Work has begun on the new mess at
the new town. "Work on these build
ings has in a. measure been hindered
by the recent rainy weather. The
frame work for the new blacksmith
shop for the machinist blacksmith is
up and work on the corrals at the town
site is about completed. Stable room
will be provided for 80 horses.
A recent ruling of camp is that all
horses must be kept in the corral,
whether owned by the reclamation ser
vice or private families. This is in or
der to carry out sanitary measures. Th
government corral is cleaned each day.
Harry Stanton, engineer of the recla

PLANS E SHEEP
RANCH IN WEST
TEXAS
(Continued from Page 1.)
to give the various trade grades 'of
karakule sheep. The skins are used
extensively In Russia and the Asian
country for caps, coats and muffs, both
by men and -women.
Roosevelt is Interested.
Dr. .Young succeeded in interesting
Theodore Roosevelt in the opportuni
ties for this Industry in America. Let
ters "were given to the secretary to
the csar of Russia by Mr, Roosevelt
and others. Dr. Young made a trip to
St. Petersburg in 1908 and had an au
dience -with the czar. He secured the
necessary papers permitting him to
bring out a herd of the pure blooded
karakules, in spite of the great oppo
sition to allowing these sheep to be
taken from the native country, where
they were the source of its greatest
income.
Dr. Young's journey Into the forbid
den country by caravan reads like a
romance of a Russian traveler to Thibet-
He got five rams and 10 ewes from
the kishlock or government protected
sheep farms. After meeting with
difficulties which seemed unsurmount
able at times, Dr. Young succeeded in
getting his sheep to this country and
to the Lowden ranch, near Dalhart.
Before they were permitted to be
brought to America, they were held in
quarantine nine months and were In
transit more than a year. The herd of
pure bloods now numbers 56 and these
are being crossed with other breeds of
sheep in order to test the strain. These
tests are now being made by the de
partment of agriculture with success.
The University of Edinborough has also
arranged for a, small herd of these ka
rakules, which will be the beginning
of a herd to be studied by the Scottish
university.
Plan Rancli at Finlay.
Dr. Young is here to arrange for the
establishment of a karakule breeding
and distribution ranch near Finlay.
He says it will not be longer than 90
days until he can have his sheep on the
ranch and can begin breeding opera
tions on a large scale. He is making
an effort to -convince western Texas
ranchers of the immense returns from
these karakules and he will nport
many of the graded ones to Mexico.
While carrying on experiments with
the new animals he was appointed
commissioner of agriculture of the
state of Coahuila and only recently re
signed the position to devote all of his
time to the promotion of the Finlay
ranch project. He will go to Bokhara
in the fall to bring over another herd
of 50 full blooded karakules, which will
be taken direct to the Finlay ranch for
breeding purposes. The permit for
bringing these out of the country has
already been Issued by the czar of
Russia through his secretary.
