Of the Mesilla valley Mr. Hoa-land re-
ferred particularly to the general jdea
OF local merchants to import produce
rather than patronize home industry.
he referred also to cases where com
MISSION men in Fl PasO would pay less
Tor produce raised in the valley than
could be realized by shipping the same
produce to Albuquerque ana points in
northern New Mexico
The cooperation Of grower and deal
er was urged as a means of OvercOm-
ing this difficulty and the farmers
present were urged TO try the quality
OF their produce and to build UP the
home market, as this field is the one
that means the most to the home
grower. The era OF 10 acre tracts
would never be realized until the mar
keI conditions were improved.
