Federal funds for irrigation in New Mexico
Federal funds under the public works administration did not require a new estimated appropriation for the reclamation bureau in the 1935 budget. The special reclamation fund was cut to 862,750 from 3,003,000 in 1934, while the general fund appropriation rose to 8,048,000, largely for Boulder Dam. Several projects from 1934 lost allocations, and operating costs on most reclamation projects declined. The Rio Grande project in New Mexico and Texas saw a slight increase to 307,000, and Grand Valley Colorado, Carlsbad New Mexico, and Rio K my New Mexico Texas show 1935 advances planned.

Grapes Rise Again in New Mexico Valleys
Albuquerque reports renewed interest in grape cultivation in the Middle Rio Grande valley.
