(special 10 The Heraldl

SAN BENITO. June 12.-Thousands
Of laborers, armed with everything
from a pillow 70 q machete, invaded
the cotton fields Of the Lower Rio
Grande Valley Monday Of this week,
and launched a battle against weeds
and boil weevils.
II was the first time since the
series of storms started almost three
weeks ago that they have been able
10 go into the fields, and there are
still many parts of the Valley par
ticularly around Weslaco and Mer-
cedes, where they can not get into
the fields yet to work.
During this time the cotton and the
weeds have both grown on almost
equal footing, and the fields are rank
with overgrowth. The cotton is
blooming out again with the bright
sun Of the past few days, and the
cleaning out process has been started
in order to give il a chance to fruit
heavily.
Near San Benito scores Of laborers
could be seen in almost every cotton
field, some working with plows, some
with hoes, some with machetes, and
other instruments. cutting weeds. and
IN some places cutting out a little x
cess cotton.
If the present weather continues
growers and gin men are agreed that
the Valley still has a chance to make
an excellent record in cotton. The
yield may eve be a little larger than
il would have been without the last
reavy rains. The stalks have put on
considerable additional foliage, and
while they have dropped some squares
and bolls. they will put on others, If
the weevil battle is waged success
fully.
busting Of cotton in some sections
of the Valley by airplane is expected
TO be started the latter part Of the
week il the weather remains favor
able, and a large part Of it may be
busted in this manner, in order to
get over il in a hurry.
Fields in this section Of the Valley
are practically dry on the surface.
with plenty Of moisture under the
surface TO mature the crop, and the
growers are losing no time in cuiti-
il to hold the moisture.

p~erience in the banking business In

Both candidates are well known
and have mar friends throughout
the county. and political observers
predict that the race for the treas
urer's office will be one Of the most
interesting contests in the campaign.
