Perhaps a word about this cotton farm is in order.  It was
established some time during the 1870's by the United Order
of Boxelder Stake.  Some people from Brigham City were called
there about 1875 to produce cotton for the people of Boxelder
Stake.  A group would stay two years or so, and then others
would take their place.  James May was in charge of the Cotton
Farm at first, and after him Isreal Hunsaker was sent down
to be foreman.  Other members of the group were Simeon Dunn,
George Dewey, Christ?ian Iverson, and some people named Loveless.
A considerable amount of fine cotton was produced there.  They
took the water out of the river by means of a rock and brush
dam which was built on the rocky bed.  This dam was easier to
keep in than the Washington dams had been because the channel
of the river was rocky at the place where the dam was placed
and the river was thus more easy to control.  The rock walls of
one or two of the rock houses still remain at the site of the
old farm, but there is no farming being carried on there now.
