Tiny Hamlet Faces Slow Drift Toward Mississippi
Tomato Arkansas, May 1. The 300 Houle, two churches, three stores, and a grammar school cling to land as the Mississippi erodes the town. In the past year about 30 houses and the school were moved by tractors across town. The river has drawn 300 yards closer since New Year, forcing some homes to northern outskirts while the town three weeks ago lost the shortest gravel route to Blytheville. Despite losses, few families leave because the land yields rich returns per acre.
