Clayton Enterprise weighs Cimarron trade impact on Clayton

The Clayton Enterprise surveys Cimarron trade influence, noting limited benefit from Cimarron shipments to Clayton and arguing against a competing town nearby. It argues Clayton’s position as county seat, existing firms, and western territory offer safety for investment, while a new town would draw away trade. It references Silver City Enterprise and Roswell Recon on Tallmadge cases and Roswell dispatches.

Farmers Seek Cheap Wheat Lands in Northwest Rail Corridor

Report from Washington describes three Sexton brothers detailing early farming trials in the Pacific Northwest. They recount soil preparation, weed control, and wind damage that ruined crops before proper technique was learned. With one year of soil work followed by harvest years yielding 30 to 60 bushels per acre, they urge investment in land near rail, and propose a community fund to prepare 40 acres for a 1960s style wheat program.

Clayton Trade Shifts With Santa Fe Route Split

In Clayton the impact of a Santa Fe route down the Divide north of the Corrumpaw is debated. The line’s end across the Oklahoma border could curb Cimarron trade by up to 4 percent while transferring much of Clayton’s commerce to a prospective railroad town. Proponents question whether settlement of lands between Clayton and the new town will offset the lost trade as agriculture remains minimal in the area.
