Jones who lives in the western part Of
Grant county. is the owner Of species
of beans with a remarkable his
tory. They are the fruits OF a bean
that was found in a cliff dwelling in
the hills along the western bOundry
of the county. and which have retained
their vitality through the ages in which
they were stored up In a mole IN the
rocks by the cliff dwellers-
When this handful of beans found
at this place were planted only one
stalk sprouted and grew. and the few
kernels which Mr.. Jones has been saw
ing until next season are the results Of
the crop. If the variety carries out
the promises it has already made, these
few beans may result in a develop
ment of a crop which viii turn all
these semi-arid plains Of Grant coun-
" into a great food producing region.
II is REGARDED certain that the people
who grew this crop were an agricul-
tural race and that they grew some
crop that produced abundantly in this
region.
