Will Have 18 Fat Years in West Texas Say Pioneer
Sam Henderson of Coleman predicts 1911 will begin 18 fat crop years for West Texas, driven by high yields and rapid land use. He cites experience in Arkansas, Tennessee, and North Texas, arguing cotton farming here outproduces other regions and can sustain multi-year cycles. He also notes a proposed Texas cigarette ban moving through the legislature and examines debt avoidance in Southern farming.
