MESA COTTON GROWERS
 WILL MEET AGAIN TODAY
Three Thousand Acres to be Planted on
 the Mesa the Present Year.

A meeting of the Mesa cotton grow
 ersis called to meet at the town hall, Mesa today for the purpose of forming an association that will have general supervision of the affairs of the grow CTS is called to meet at the town hall, will be at least three thousand acres of cotton grown in the Mesa during 1913. it is important that a strong as sociation be formed to attend to the details of securing pickerS, arranging for the ginning and sale of the crop While the growers have taken cognlz- ance of the warning sent out by the agricultural department against an overproduction and consequent diff culties of securing pickers, they do not consider the amount now contemplated as being burdensome and difficult to handle. Many of the individual grow CTS have already looked into the pick ing proposition and believe they will be able to handle the situation-and that too. without the importation of negroes
 one plan that has been suggested and which meets with considerable favor. is to send a competent man south and there arrange to secure the better class of white pickers, prefer ably married men. For this purpose the railroad companies would no doubt give low rates. These people could be given work during the picking season. In the meantime lot the association. or some one acting for the association, se- cure a tract of land that could be sub divided in small buildings and sold to the heads of families at reasonable price and on long time payments. The families would have plenty of time during the year to grow sufficient for their support on the land and thus be able to set aside a portion of their wages each year toward the payment of their homes. This would prove a great benefit to the people brought to the valley, who could soon become land owners and enable them to educate their children. something many of them. under the conditions that at present they confront are unable to do. \ colonization plan of the kind above outlined would add to the population ] of the valley and increase the volume 1 of trade of the business men. Both the 1 cotton growers and their helpers would l be benefited and the prosperity of the | valley augmented. Remember, the
 meeting will be at o'clock, p. m., to- day, March 1st.
