The population was large, and sup
ported itself with farming and sheep rais
ing. This valley was75 miles from the San
ta Fe main line to California before the
cut-oiT and Santa Fe Central were built.
The first settlers came in by a round
about way, via old Santa Fe, over the A
T. & S. F, old line, via the Rock Island'
and via the Santa Fe cut-off.
The valley is new. The time has just
arrived when it can be said that there is
practically no choice farming lands left
for homestead entry, making it necessary
;o acquire others' rights to land before
filing on it, and about all the conditions to
be found Sn any new country at this
stage, are to be found here.
There is opportunity for the investor,
and the man seeking a home or improved
health, ora nature beauty spot in which
to enjoy his sojourn upon this earth.
