Portales town notes praise and agricultural display
The report highlights lush crops fifty days from sowing with falfa sixteen inches high, apples such as Grimes golden and Missouri pippins, peaches, grapes, peppers, tomatoes and more. It lauds Portales valley as Eden like, the fine high school, a state road to Clovis, and a cordial visit by Mrs. McDonald and the Portales boosters praising home building and community progress. The Womans Club of Clovis and local citizens receive a warm welcome amid strong town pride.
