El Cerrito, San Miguel County, New Mexico. Rooms in all these houses differ considerably as to furn . . .; Scope and content: Full caption reads as follows: El Cerrito, San Miguel County, New Mexico. Rooms in all these houses differ considerably as to furniture, arrangement and shape, but almost all of them are surprisingly clean and well kept. The influence of the church on the lives of these people is very strongly reflected in the decorating to be seen on the walls of their homes. Notice that nearly every one of these pictures shows some sort of religious symbol. Mealtime for a large family. There are three generations here and an extra cousin or two. Food is usually plentiful but there is little variety. Chili with meat or beans is of course a staple and there are green vegetables in season from the irrigated gardens. Milk and butter are almost unheard of since the local pasture is too poor for dairy cows.
