Luna Cotton Co op Column From Deming NM
In Luna New Mexico the Luna Cotton Co op notes good cotton weather and a barley price of 2.30 per cwt delivered to their warehouse. Most workers are on vacation, a Oklahoma trip is mentioned, and the column praises local telephone service while urging payment of the 1962 63 fiscal year debts by June. A quip about farming methods and barley appears, ending with a faith themed line from Emil Hohman.

Material alteration frees innocent party in contract
Johnson assigned rights under a contract unaware of an alteration. When the instrument was altered to change performance timing, Smith refused payment and delivery. The court held that a material alteration by one party without consent allows the innocent party to treat the contract as void, even if the assignee did not know of the change. As Johnson’s assignee, McGuire bore defenses Smith had against Johnson.
