Years after the Dust Bowl of the 1930s, severe drought devastated portions of New Mexico -- an area that had been known as "The Pinto Bean Capitol of the World." Many farmers just "up and left," as others had done during the Depression Era, leaving a place such as Oklahoma for California.
Those who abandoned their homes often sold their land to ranchers to use for cattle ranching.
