COTTON GROWERS
MIGHTY BESET.

Sloan, Nov. 19.-The famers OF
this community were mighty beset
last week when they learned that
cotton buyers had ceased buying cot
ton, except a few that were paying
the small sum of seven cents, which
was enough to dishearten any civil
lied person who has to pay the price
for cotton goods that we are paying
today. Somebody is making Some
Profit!
Mr.. Walter Smith, of near Pisgah
church, sold his farm to Mr.. Dave
Maxey for $4,000, Mr.. Smith has
bought Mr.. Bill Gamers place for

DRESDEN NATION
AL FARM LOAN
ASSOCIATION.

It is comparatively easy for a far
mer to procure loan from the Fed
eral Land Bank through our associ-
alton.
For example: The rate of inter-
est is s. " per cent; the man borrows
$1,000; his semi-annual payments
are $3.50. These seml-annual pay
ments will pay the loan off entirely
at the end of 341a years, if allowed
to run that long. Loans are made in
sums of from 500 to $4,000. The
loan, however, may be paid off at any
interest-paying date after five years,
or sooner, by agreement.
We are expecting the government
appraiser soon and if you are inter
ested, get your application filed with
us soon. This is the farmers friend,
low rate of interest. For further in
formation call on, Chas. A. Ogan,
Abstractor, M. H. Levy, President,
or our secretary-treasurer, c. H. Hill
lard.

T0EL PAS0, ROAD IS GOOD
Pasoans Make the 235 Miles in Day and Find Road
in Good Shape Most of the Way; Signs and Road
Work Needed on Carlsbad End; Fine Road
From Van Horn to Ell Paso, Most of the Way.
By G. A. MARTIN.

I'll PASO has as good an automo-
bile road to Carlsbad as to Ros-
- well The distance IS 235 miles
and It can be made easily in a day.
With a little work upon the road at
the Carlsbad end, it will be quite fast.
On the whole, the road is as good as,
II not better than the road from FL
Paso to Roswell by way of AIamogor-
do, but when the new road between FL
Paso and Alamogordo is completed. this
will hardly be the case. In rainy
weather the Carlsbad-Ed Paso road
would be quite bad If not impassabl
in places, but the same is true OF the
present FL PasO-Roswen road. in fact
the road between Ell PasO and Alamo
gordo in its present state is impassa-
bic IN wet weather.
Carlsbad wants 10 have a branch Of
the Ozarks trail through there from
OF Van Horn The people OF Van Horn
are now planning to build a good road
west towards Orange. n. NJ. and ex-
pect the Carlsbad people to connect
with them at the county line.
Old Road Very Poor.
The road from Carlsbad to FL Paso
through Artesia. Hope and the Flat
Lake country by way Of Hueco Tanks,
is passable, but is rough and poor,
principally because Of the rOughness
OF the mountains ana the high centerS
end the sand in the road. so this is

Carlsbad at o'clock Sunday morning.
they reached FL Paso, a distance of
235 miles, at 8 o'clock Sunday night.
and they killed" two hours on the
road-an hour at Sierra Blanca for
lunch and another hour in stops on
the road. Twice they lost some time
getting on the wrong road, from
lack of signs. but this was for but a
short time. The road is so well de-
fined that il is not hard to follow.
