“In this municipality, the data referred to in this survey does not exist, as there is no one occupied in agriculture because of the lack of irrigation and only a few residents do a small amount of rainfed planting to help with their subsistence.” (No hay en este Municipio los datos a que se refiere esta voleta [sic], pues no hay quién se ocupe en la agricultura por la falta de regadio y solamente unos cuantos vecinos hacen agunos [sic] pequeños sembrados de temporal para ayudar a su subsistencia.) Incomplete table from Casas, Tamaulipas, June 9, 1899. Archivo General de la Nación, Fomento y Obras Publicas: Exposiciones Extranjeras y del País. Caja 51, exp. 8.
