comprises one OF the most fertile and product
i've bodies Of irrigated land in this country.
1t produces almost all kinds of fruits. grains
and vegetables in abundance. In Ward and
Reeves counties. Texas. where our lands listed
below are located. alfalfa Is the leading crop.
A stand OF it Is easy to get and five cuttings
can be grown In the season. Seed natures well
and often yields 500 per acre. Cotton Is an
other staple. The Valley Is free from boil
weevil and other plaques which the cotton
planters farther east must combat. Alfalfa and
cotton rotate to perfection. When alfalfa gets
thin. pillow the land and you are sure to get an
immense cotton crop, sometimes two bales per
acre. After two or three years cropping to
cotton the ground becomes as good as new for
alfalfa. For an Industrious farmer tire climate
is ideal. The winters are so mild that he can
pillow comfortably almost every day in the year
in his shirt sleeves. The very best lands in the
valley are supplied with water from the Pecos
River for irrigation by the Cedarvale Irrigation
System or by the canals of Ward County Irrlga-
