The Snyder signal. (Snyder, Tex.) 1887-????, 1918-08-23

A Signal representative took q
Ford drive Sunday afternoon to Joe
strayhorn's farm across the river
west Of Ira and In that deep sand re-
glon thore will be some cotton made
even without rain and with a good
rain about now there would be lots
Of stuff made there.
Coming back We took look at
Pope strayhorn's irrigated farm and
saw there as good cotton. maize, TO-
ierlta and johnson grass as was ever
grown In scurry county. This farm
shows what can be done here with
water and the time is bound to come
when irrigation will be the rule
There are very few farms In the
county without a draw or swaF
where a dam could be made and .
few acres put under irrigation. A
large area Ia not so essential. A small
tract properly handled is enough for
an ordinary family and even II the
farm is not irrigated garden patch
can be cultivated and made to almost
support the family
