FARMERS SEEK
ELPASO, Texas, March 13 (by Asso
ciated Press).—The next step in the
Rio Grande reclamation project is
community building and colonization,
according to L. M. Lawson, project en
gineer at El Paso, in a statement just
published in the latest issue of The
Farm Bureau News, distributed by the
country farm bureau of the El Paso
chamber of Commerce.
“With ample storage works provid
ed to guarantee a sufficient supply of
!yvater, even over dry seasons, and
drainage canals excavated to such an
extent that a large area of the culti
vated lands are protected from the
rise of ground water, development
turns from such work to the use of
the benefits provided,” Mr. Lawson
says.
“The work still to be completed by
the reclamation service consists of
the extension of the drainage works
into areas not yet relieved of the
water logged condition: the extension
of the canal system to new areas, the
reconstruction of a limited amount of
the old systems and the reorganiza
tion of an operating force of adequate
training to operate and maintain the
system provided.
“In no time in the history of the
projects has there been a more gener
al demand for farming property by
actual farmers than at present. The
future success depends, in some mea
i
sure, on obtaining settlers for the
idle lands who will be desirable cit
izens.”
The El Paso valley has 556,160 acres ;
of land that might be irrigated, ac
cording to T. W. Parry, irrigation
manager of the Elephant Butte, New j
Meixco, project. Mr. Parry adds that j
there are 29,914 acres are subject;
i
to being cropped without other than
ordinary preparation. The value of
crops produced from the cropped
areas in 131!) was $1,350,000, accord
ing to Mr. Parry.
