PRODUCTION Of
WOOL THIS YEAR
SHOWS DECLINE
Total for State Has Been
Dropping Off; New Mex
LEO SIumpS From Third
to Ninth in Union.

Las Cruces, N. M, Dec. 15.---New
Mexico has dropped from third to
ninth place in the scale Of wool
producing states in the union, ac-
cording to a report of r., +. Hare,
agricultural statistician in the fed
eral bureau of markets and crop
estimates.
The production this year is below
the totals of 1919 and 1920, but the
general production over the nation
shows a similar decline.
Mr. Hare's report follows:
Wool.
The revised estimates OF the I'm
tied states department of agricul-
ture, on the production of wool IN
New Mexico for the past three
years, are as follows: 1913, 1l,600,-
600 pounds; 1920, 1O,50O,000
pounds; 1921, 100000 pounds.
These figures show a large de-
cline in production of wool in the
state. A few years ago it was
third in production among the
states. Now the production in
wyoming, Texas, Idaho. Utah. Mon
tana, Oregon, California and ONO
exceeds that of New Mexico.
The estimated production for the
United States in 1921 is 224,564,-
600 pounds. This is 1O,44l, 600
mounds less than the estimate for
1920, and 25,394,00O pounds less
than for 1919.
Cotton.
The number of bales OF cotton
produced in 1921 for the United
States, was estimated by the de-
partment of agriculture on Novem-
Der 25, at $4,000 bales. This is
an increase of 100000 bales over
the forecast made August %, which
was based on condition at that time.
The ravages of the boil weevil were
not so severe as conditions at the
time indicated they would be. Sub
sequent weather conditions are also
responsible for this increase over
the estimate of August 20.
The production for New Mexico
is estimated at 6,400 bales from
about $4,000 acres.
Ranges and Livestock.

The message from the Ottawa air

Of the Navy took occasion to say, how

that the first obligation Of the airmen

The industries of this country can
neither prosper nor long survive under
the burden of wartime wages and
working conditions.
This is as true of the railroads as
of other Industries.
There can be no prosperity or nor

general cost of production is lowered.
1t is evident as to all Industries and
particularly the railroad that wages

The number of idle industries, the

An Independent Club Composed of La

Base Ball.

Charles f. Baker the business man
ager has made arrangements for the
club to play here on Tuesday, July
26, at the local base ball park. One
feature of the game will be the pitch
ing of Miss Kate Becker, the champion
lady base ball pitcher of the world.
The record of this in 1919 was, won
l05, lost 81, and in 1920 won ll2, lost
rs games, which is record for any
league club to be proud of.
The club carries two catchers, one
Mabel Bohle, the only lady catcher in
;he world. and four pitchers, SO as to
always be ir good shape to give a
good account of themselves on the
field. Some people ask. ''Do they use
mem" The answer is yes. few, not
all, just enough to make the home
boys step out lively IL they want to
win. The ladies' club always use five
girls in the line up.
The local boys will have to play in
mid-season form TO beat this club of
ladies on the above date, so let us see
you get out and let every fan turn
cut and root for the home boys. Mr.
Baker requests the home boys to play
as hard rs they can to beat the girls.
AS the clippings show that Mr.. Bak-
er carries from various games played
throughout the country that these la
dies do know the game and they will
demonstrate that when they cross bats

pecially invited to attend this game

the already large number of idle fac

posing every effort toward such revis-
ion.
1t is surprising indeed that railroad
employees who constitute the highest
paid class of labor in the world and
who during the war and since bene
fitted from wage increases and work
ing concessions to a much greater ex
tent than any other class, should row
be the most active and conspicuous
in opposing readjustment. In this
they not only display selfishness but
lack of judgment and leadership.
There must and will be revision
of wages and working conditions COM
prising all industries including the
railroad and this revision will be soon
and downward In this respect the pub
lie mind is crystallized, determined and
will brook no interference. Whether
organized or unorganized those who
oppose such revision are riding to a
fall.
