Stevia BEanca and Huda^e-iA Caunty
Directors of the Southwes-
tern New Mexico Grazing
Association met with Secre-
tary of the Interior, Walter
Hickle, in Roswell, N. M.,
Tuesday night. The group
met with Secretary Hickle
before a fund-raising dinner
held in Roswell.
Charlie Lee, Bob Jones,
Mark Smith, Tom Lineberry
and Congressman Ed Fore-
man were present. The
group was very encouraged
after the meeting regarding
public land problems.
Dell Valley -Most of the
soils in the Dell Valley area-
are highly susceptive to wind
erosion. The desirability of
adequate vegetative protec-
tion on the land surface can-
not be over-stressed, as it is
often the only method of
erosion control. Excessive
tillage or tillage with im-
proper implements are ma-
jor causes of vegetative co-
ver reduction. Residue
management practices that
leave the soil protected at
all times are essential for
the best erosion control. This
is also probably the most
economical way to prevent
erosion.
The majority of the soils
in this area will be properly
protected against wind ero-
sion with the minimum of
2, 000 pounds per acre of
residue left on the surface.
An easy way to estimate the
amount of surface residue af-
ter harvesting the crop is:
3, 000 pounds per acres
Grain Sorghum harvested
plus 1, 000 pounds equals
4, 000 pounds per acre of re-
sidue on the soil surface.

Weather was ideal and co-
tton harvesting increased ra-
pidly in the Texas portion
of the El Paso territory. For
the week ending Friday,
October 3, about 1, 000 sam-
ples were classed, accord-
ing to J. A. McAfee, In
Charge, USDA's Consumer
and Marketing Service, Co-
tton Division Office. Total
for the season reached 1, 700
compared with 700 classed
at this time last year.
About one fourth of last
week's receipts was ginned
on roller gins. Middling was
the predominant grade at
34 percent of classings.
Strict Low Middling was a
very close second at 31 per-
cent. Eighteen percent gra-
ded Middling Light Spotted,
seven percent Strict Midd-
ling, six percent Strict Low
Middling Plus, two percent
Light Spotted. Seven percent
was reduced in grade be-
cause of GRASS content.
Fifty-three percent stapled
1-5/32 inches, 22 percent
1-3/32 inches, 15 percent
1-1/8 inches, seven percent
1-3/16 inches, and three per-
cent 1-1/16 inches.
Average mike remained
high at 4.1. All samples
miked 3. 5 and higher. -
Fiber strength was about
unchanged at 88, 000
pounds per square inch.
Middling, 1-5/32 inches
was quoted at 27. 45 cents
per pound. This quotation
and all USDA upland spot
quotations are for cotton
with mike readings 3. 5 thru
4. 9, in mixed lots, uncom-
pressed, free of all charges
in the warehouse in the
market.
Cooperatives were advan-
cing $41.00 to $45.00 per
ton for cottonseed.
SCHOOL BOARD
Dell City -School Board
met a week early this month
in order to accept and sub-
mit preliminary application
for funds.
The Financial Report was
not available at this meet-
ing as the books are being
audited by George Angelos,
C. P.A., El Paso, Texas.
Policy on appropriate stu-
dent dress was discussed at
length and a resolution passed
stating in effect that the
school board will continue
to back Superintendent and
Principals in their efforts to
encourage students to be pro-
perly dressed and use good
judgment in hair styles and
tire use of makeup.
A policy on students atten-
ding the full four years of
high school before graduation
was adopted. It would en-
courage attendance for the
four years and in an emer-
gency, a student might grad-
uate in less than four years,
with approval of school board,
Superintendent and Principal.
Some restrictions on activi-
ties would be imposed, and
a special status for student
established.
A public address system for
the football field was pur-
chased. It is a portable sys-
tem with record player and
extra microphone included.
The electric score board re-
cently purchased is being re-
paired and will be installed
for next home game with
