The State Of Sonora, Mexico.

Sonora is bounded on the north by
Arizona; on the east by the Mexican
State Chihuahua, on the south by the
State of Sinaloa and on the west by the
Gulf of California. The area is 81 100
square miles and the population about
10000. The eastern portion is mount
aims. being traversed by branch of the
Sierra Modre. The western portion is
composed of extensive plains. The
principle rivers are the Mayno, Yaqui,
and San Jose, all emptying into the
Gulf of California.
Unquestionably, the country is rich
in gold and silver mines. Copperas,
amianthus, alabaster, jasper and car
Donate of soda, and nitrate of potash,
are found. The climate is hot ON the
coast, mild in the center portions and
cool in the elevated regions of the east.
Lands are very cheap. Much of the soil is
fertile, and farming operations are chiefly
confined to the districts watered by the
Mayno and kYaqui Rivers. The staple
productions are wheat, corn, barley,
oats, beans, sugar, cotton and tobacco.
Coffee is raised and fruit is abundant.
There are extensive forests, but little OF
the timber is suitable for building.
Copal, gum arabic, archil, moss, chochi-
neal, oysters Gncluding pear oysters),
and fish of good quality are found in
inexhaustible quantities. There are
seven steam and a number of flour
mills. Coarse cotton goods are manu-
factured in a mill of sixty looms at San
Miguel.-Denver Tribune.
