night after a weeks vacation which he
devoted TO visiting every part Of the
Lower Rio Grande Valley from Roma to
Brownsville
Starr county in common with the
rest of the Valley will produce big
cotton crop" Mr.. Lott said. land two
new gins have been erected in that
county to assist in handling the cot
ton which II now coming in rapidly
one Of the new gins being located at
Roma and the other at Rancho Viejo.
ebOve Roma. On the Mexican side cf
the Rio Grande there il also q big cot
tor acreage between San Miguel and
Guerrero. which probably accounts for
the small number Of cotton pickers
coming across the river in that sec
tion. The Mexican cotton is fully as
GOOD as that raised on the American
side. and practically all small farmers
and laborcrs on the Mexican side. who
in previous years crossed the river to
pick cotton. are now engaged in PICK

Mr.. Lott described Hdalgo- county
as "a mass Of cotton" lie has resided
in the Valley many years, and states
that he had no idea that the Valley
could produce such an enormous crop
The leaf worm damage. he states. is
more to the appearance Of the plant
than TO the cotton, except in the late
cotton. and he predicted that the total
yield would not be affected to the ex-
tent at first believed.
The dry land sections in the Valley
will produce big crop. Mr.. Lott re-
ports. and in most Of these sections the
damage hy the leaf worm was not AS
extensive as in the fields closer to the
river.
In every community from Roma 10 III
Jardn every available cotton picker has
been placed in the field. but the labor
shortage is acute In some sections. he

gins in the Valley are now running on
a 2i-hour schedule. but in very few To-
calities have they been able to keep up
