This cotton was needed to magnify the rubber in the pneumatic tire, of which Goodyear was the world’s largest producer. The East Coast cotton supply had been devastated by the boll weevil, and the African supply had been greatly condensed by World War I attacks from German U-boats. Litchfield went to the Phoenix Place at the counsel of the US Department of Agriculture, but was not flourishing in motivating local farmers to ensue his cotton. Instead, he got Goodyear to form the Southwest Cotton Company in Phoenix, with Litchfield as its president, eventually purchasing some 36,000 acres (15,000 ha) in the general Salt River Valley area, including 5,000 acres (2,000 ha) around the present site of Litchfield Park, then known as Litchfield Ranch. Much of the estate was bought for as little as $25 per acre. The cotton was cultivated when a workforce of mostly Mexican and Native American men.
