Hinkley is a bank cashier who made a wonderful success at farming at San Benito in the Gulf Coast Country ( He purchased twenty acres of land on October 28, 1909, anc by May, the following year, harvested 193 tons of cabbages at a net profit of $4,652.13, or $310.14 an acre. This paid for his entire farm, in¬ cluding five acres set out in cotton and com, which gave him additional clear profit and left him with a six per cent return on his original in¬ vestment and a surplus of seven hundred odd dollars before his first year was over. All the while he was working in a San Benito bank, simply overseeing his place and leaving its managemeni in the hands of his Mexican help.
