Avalanche marks fiftieth year with hope for future growth
In a New Year note the Alpine community celebrates The Avalanche’s fifty years of publication and looks to a bright future. Readers are thanked for support from Alpine and Brewster County, with plans and discussions on state land use for sanitarium purposes, water and fuel needs, and philanthropic prospects. Fort Davis notes describe church, youth activities, and a mining discussion on mineral rights and local mines such as Chisos Mining Co. and Shafter silver mines.
