Rocky Ford enterprise., 1907-02-08

1t is quite generally understood
that Colorado is one OF the most
prosperous states in the union. And
the prosperity OF the Centennial
State is nowhere more evident than IN
the Arkansas valley. Its rapid
growth and development Is astonish-
ing even our most sanguine boomers.
In all portions of the valley from Pu-
eblo to the Kansas line new farms are
being opened. new irrigation enter
prises pushed. large farms are being
cut up into smaller ones for more
intense cultivation, and the towns are
by rapid growth keeping pace with
the fast growing country.
Among the newest sections which
are Joining in this march OF progress
is the splendid Holbrook country.
north OF the river and east OF Rocky
Ford. Ever since the Holbrook ca
nal was constructed the rich lands
under it have been in great favor. and
this popularity has recently been in
creased by the construction OF the
Arkansas Valley Railroad. which gives
the Holbrook country the advantages
of railway transportation enjoyed BY
other communities along the line OF
the Santa Fe.
The present and future develop
ment OF this choice portion OF Otero
county has made a demand for new
trading points. And this brings US to
speak OF the new town of Shelton.
named from that enterprising citizen.
