TOP PRICE FOR
MESILLA VALLEY
DURANGO COTTON
Thirteen Bales Sold at Las.
Cruces for 28 "a Cents.
a Pound; Acreage to Be
Larger in 1923.
Special to The journal

Las Cruces, n. NJ, Nov. g.
Thirteen bales Of Durango cotton
grown in the Picacho district OF
the Mesilla valley, brought 2S$I
cents q pound. This is one and Il
half cents higher than the top price
reached q week ago, when Arthur
Williams of Fort Fillmore, N. M,
sold part of his crop at u Ia cents
a pound.
Experts, including buyers for
large cotton houses in Texas, say
that Mesilla valley cotton will go
up to at least 80 cents pound be-
fore the close of the season. They
agree that the long staple and
whiteness of cotton grown in this
valley gave it a greater value than
the lint produced in most Of the
older cotton states. That, they
add is the reason for the pre-
miums over the regular price.
Production of the banner crop
of cotton and the high prices paid
by buyers have been the means OF
directing nationwide attention 10
the Mesilla valley. The Dona Ana
County Farm bureau have received
hundreds of inquiries to date.
Most of the letters come from Ok
lahoma, south Texas and SOUTH
ern states, where the boil weevil
and other cotton pests played hav-
oc with the cotton crop.
Charles H. lifting, president of
the Mesilla Valley Cotton Growers
association, estimates that upward
of 5000 acres of valley land win
be planted to cotton next season,
He says that the farmers of this
district cannot go wrong by put
ting every acre available in cotton.
Just what this years crop means
to the cotton farmers is best told
when it is known that in numer-
Gus instances the value of the crop
is greater than the cost OF the land.
j. l.. Esslinger, who is farming
2S acres south of here, is credited
with making nine bales on four
acres of land. He received 26 L.
cents a pound for his cotton.
w. H. Lee of Barstow, Tex, who
expects to plant more than 100
acres of cotton in the Mesilla val
ley next year, says that because of
the world shortage of cotton, the
price will hold up in 1923, as mil
lions of bales will be required to
make up n reserve, which is now
exhausted.

HILL WILL MAKE
FINAL CAMPAIGN
SPEECH TONIGHT
Republican Candidate for
Governor viii Speak in
High School Auditorium;
Says Fight Is Won.
s: ecial TO The journal

Las Cruces, n. NJ, Nov. g.
Charles l.. Hill, republican candi-
date for governor, before leaving
for Albuquerque, where he Will de-
liver the final speech of his cam
paign on Saturday night, said: Il
am going to make one more talk
and then / will be through. l am
confident that the fight is won,
and that the republican ticket VIII
be elected; but whether it is or not,
it is a satisfaction to me to know
that the campaign has been
clean one and that personalities
and mud-slinging have been left
entirely out of it.
My democratic opponents Mr..
Hinkle, has of course been severe
ly handicapped from the start, be-
cause il is very hard for a man to
run for an office when he has
nothing constructive to run on, and
that is exactly the position in
which Mr.. Hinkle has been
placed"
"All that the democratic plat
form contains is condemnation and
criticism: there is not construc-
tive plank in It, and, consequently,
Mr.. Hinkle has been forced to the
necessity of promising the voters
of the state, who believe in prog
ress, that as a democratic COVER
nor he will carry out the pledges
of the republican party.
HE couldn't do otherwise, be-
cause If New Mexico is going for
ward at all in the next two years,
it will have to do in conformity
with republican and not democrat
ic ideas.
"The republican platform pledg-
es me to work for the constructive
development OF the. state. The
democratic platform pledges its
candidates to enter only one thing.
which is to the prompt reduction
of taxes and retrenchment in pub
lie expenses,
"That one phrase in his party's
resolutions is the only thing that
Mr.. Hinkle has had to wage CAM
paign upon, and ! must congratu-
late him on having been able to
stretch 1t sufficiently to make it
last him for more than two
months of active speech making.
But there is another thing that
cannot congratulate him on
which is that Mr. Hinlle does not
know what it is that the people of
New Mexico want from their gov
ernor.
"They do want an efficient, eco
nomical business administration
which will stop the leaks, if there
are any. which will get rid of in
competent and lazy officials. If
there are any, which will be hon
est with itself and honest with the
people. But they do not want road
building to stop nor do they want
their school systems interfered
with by their chief executive.
II have been going over the
state for the past month looking
into just these things and l know
that, regardless of Mr.. Hinkle's
statement to the contrary, what
have said about roads and schools
is true. The people want economy,
efficiency and honesty in admins
tration but they want these things
to go hand in hand with Develop
ment and construction and in or
der to secure this combination they
must turn to the republican party
and the republican platform, be-
cause the democrats and the dem
ocratic platform promise them
nothing"
