BIG PINTO BEAN CROP

S. G. Swanson, who owns one of the
most productive ranches on the old
Grand Canyon road, east Of Flagstaff,
threshed out 513 sacks of pinto beans
this year from 50 acres of ground
Mr.. Swanson says that not all
ranchers can raise pinto beans, nor
can they raise potatoes to good adj
vantage on all ranches. He believes
that it is up to the rancher to find out
what his particular location and soil
will produce, then stay put with the
crop that promises best. Switching is
a losing game.
