e Wiggins System of Sub-Irrigation
If YOU are familiar with, the growth of the Magnolia Fig
Industry in Texas if aware of the possibilities that attend it as
an enterprise of profit then you need not be urged to buy.
But one question should precede your purchase, and that is:
Where are conditions most favorable for fig production on a
commercial scale?
The reply is: "AT FARMINGTON," in the heart of South
west Texas. It is directly on the Asherton and Gulf Railroad and
but one hundred miles South of SAN ANTONIO, the largest city
in Texas.
Why "AT FARMINGTONt"
Because of six things, namely: productive soil; an abundance
of pure water j a climate that is unsurpassed; excellent transpor
tation facilities; nearness to market; and, last in order but first
in importance, the Wiggins System of Sub-Irrigation.
What is this system?
Our literature explains. It describes and illustrates the won
derfullv superior advantages possessed by it over other forms.
The system is installed "AT FARMINGTON."
In fact if you were to see how our fig trees thriveabout
sixteen thousand all told many of them set out as twigs last
March yet today strong and healthy trees averaging five to six
feet tall; and then, if you were to have demonstrated the average
vield of fruit per tree and its quick disposition at a high price,
vou would be amazed at such an enterprise's promise of profit.
