Additional Details:
The bustling town of Lordsburg still remains a Frontier town as it borders on Arizona and not far from the line of Mexico, with its mining, cattle raising and picturesque desert country it is strangely interesting. The main business street, over the old Butterfield Stage Route, is more than a mile long. It is surprising that the slight variation in temperature is unequalled in the Southwest, with a difference of only some 20 odd degrees between summer and winter.
