CASA GRANDE NOTES

Ted Healy and Lemuel Mathews
spent Tuesday in Florence; on their
way over they visited the Overfield
Cotton company plantation, the
White & Purdy plantation, the big
Tweedy ranch, the Davis cotton plan
tation and the Fred Brown ranch and
took several pictures of the growing
crops on all these farms. The
Tweedy ranch has the largest acreage
of Indian corn and milo maize in the
valley, and it certainly did look beau
tiful
There are four hundred acres in
cultivation on this place.
The cotton on the Overfield, White
& Purdy and Davis and Brown places
was fine and will run big yield, all
OF these places having large acreages
to cotton and are specializing on this
particular crop. However, they are
raising lots of other crops.
All of these places are located il
what is called the shallow water dis
trict and all depend entirely on
pumping water from wells, but they
are all making great successes this
