Farmlands prove rich in Southwest wealth surge
The El Paso Herald reports New Mexico and Arizona farmers turning modest plots into rich returns. A New Mexico farmer sold 2392 dollars of corn from 65 acres costing five to ten dollars per acre, while another raised 5000 pounds of beans on a two hundred dollar farm for three hundred percent profit. Arizona Pima cotton sells above 53 cents a pound as full blooded Indians join the gain. A three fourths acre alfalfa patch funds beef for two steers, and a county shipments of six thousand cattle worth 190000 dollars in a month signals strong prospects for local commerce beyond farming. The piece likens farm wealth to Wall Street gains, betting mortgages as the only laggard.
