TO MEET OIV MERGING MESA ORCANIzlTI IONS

MESA. Aug. 31-Plans for the merg- ing of the Mesa Cotton Growers as sociation and the Mesa Farm Bureau Federation into one organization are now being discussed by Mesa farmers and the plan will be taken up officially at joint meeting of the two organiZa- tions to be held Saturday afternoon.
 Fewer organizations and more con- centrated efforts. it is believed by those interested in both organizations, will accomplish more and to that end it has been proposed to merge the two bodies together under the farm bureau head.
 The Saturday meeting has been called jointly by D. F. Jones. presi- dent of the cotton association, and Leonard Nets. president of the Farm Bureau. The two bodies will meet to- gether on the city hall plaza Satur- day afternoon at o'clock and the con- solidation of the two organizations will be accomplished at that time if the plan is agreed upon.

 Would Buy Cotton
 Three bales of cotton at any price were wanted in Mesa Tuesday bv a buyer for eastern house and had 1 there been any cotton here suitable to what he wanted it is probable that a price for this season would have been established. Three bales have been ginned here this season. but from stub cotton which did not appeal to the buyer. Lacking the cotton to purchase, the buyer didn't state any price he would pay beyond saving that he would go the limit for the three bales his company wanted for exhibi- ton in the east.
