CALEXICO, Oct. 17.-The Interna.
tional Cotton Pageant TO be held here
on November TO IL, inclusive, is going
TO 90 over with a bang.
Enthusiasm locally and abroad is
growing more and more with each pass
ing day, and new ideas, suggestions
and support is being given the big ex.
position than at first thouht possible
The cotton men of the district, gin
ners and growers, as well as oil mill
people from all parts of Southern Cali
fornia have gotten behind the project
and are going to spend thousands OF
dollars in the erection of a wonder
full Cotton Palace, where cotton and
|cotton products in every stage of de-
velovment will be on display for the
information and instruction, as well as
amusement of the thousands and
thousands of visitors who will visit here
during the time of the hi gshow.
Amusements OF every kind, character
and description will be here, with a
big dance, spindle booths, and possibly
a Ferris wheel or merry -go-round for
the kiddies.
The industrial display booths are be
ing reserved by local merchants and
foreign manufacturers about as fast
as they can be taken care of, over 90
booths being already spoken Ior, and
no one having been solicited as yet,
except by etter to manufacturers at
Los Angeles, San Diego and other out
side places.
The big water circus, which made
such hit at the Pageant of Progress
at Los Angeles a short time ago, is a
whirlwind of amusement, and the local
features which are being w5...t ! out
for incorporation in the program of
events to be staged at this water show
are going to be worth every effort

The value of all farm products have taken a
drop in the after-war re-adiustment but the
greatest fluctuation has been in what might be
termed table luxuries'
The ner, who today is raising those crops
which e country cannot get along without, is
playing safer than the farmer who is going after
the bigger profits promised by other products.
Lack of employment, strikes and hard times do
not so greatly affect prices of fundamental
crops, and it is only the farmer with adequate
capital that can afford to gamble in raising lux
uries
We are glad to note that Imperial Valley is
,ra Idly returning to the accentuation of alfalfa,
the dairy herd hogs and feeder cattle, for in
these agricultural activities are to be found con-
tinuous prosperity. Cantaloupes lettuce,
fruits, ETC.. have proven big dividend producers
also, at times. they have shown "red ink"
These latter crops should not be neglected but.
they should not overtop fundamentals.
