Description
Lamesa in Dawson County has done well with it's cotton season and can do it again. But this year, with deficient rainfall the county can count on only about 12,000 bales from irrigated acreage. In spite of the decrease in country cash, the town is far from being out of business. Lamesa has attractive homes, wide, well paved streets, good schools and an abundance of water. The Lamesa Independent School District embraces 333 square miles. Shown is Lamesa's $1,000,000 high school opened in 1948.
