YUBA.

W Iunty lies directly northeast from
and adjoins Suffer county. Its area is Gil
square miles, or 395, 900 acres. 1t lies on
the eastern side of the Sacramento. and
embraces considerable portion of the foot
hills on the western slope of the Sierra Ne
vada. These foothills, which were once the
home of many thousand miners, are now
being settled and cultivated by agricultur-
lists, who find the soil we'll suited to a va
riety of crops. The western portion of-the
county lies in the valley proper, where the

TRINITY.

This county properly belongs to the class
whose trade is directly tributary TO the
Sacramento valley. 1t adjoins Humboldt
on the west, but draws its supplies chiefly
through the railroad system that penetrates
Shasta on the east. It's area in square
miles is 2,625, and its acreage is 1855, 0O0
The population in 1880 was little upward
of 5000, which mas since been increased
somewhat. Trinity has been something of
a mining county in the past. and its pres
ent annual yield of gold is about S40O, 900.
1t is chiefly devoted to grazing, although
there is
CONSIDERABLE AGRICULTURE
Carried on in the valleys. The county is
mountainous, generally speaking, but has
many fertile spots capable of sustaining a
considerably increased population. The
scenery of Trinity is bold and grand, and
tourists find it delightful region to visit
in the summer months. The county-seat
is Weaverville, a picturesque town of
some 1000 inhabitants. Trinity possesses a
healthful climate, and its people are an en-
terprising, hospitable class.

SHASTA.

Shasta county, situated at and compris-
ing the head of the Sacramento valley, is
one of the largest and most sparsely-settled
counties of the State. Since the days of

ness of its placer mines, and the amount
of wealth in gold taken from its streams.

decline of its placers, the great resources
of its mineral wealth III numerous and ex-
tensive deposits of precious metals in
lodges and lodes began to attract the atten-

The center of the county is reached by
the Nevada County Narrow-Gauge Rail
road This road runs from Colfax, on the
Central Pacific, to Grass Valley and Ne
vada City, a distance of about twenty-four
miles, From the two towns named five
wagon roads run to all parts of the county.
Some of these roads are splendid results of
engineering skill in the matter of passing,
by easy grades, over sharp and high ridges.
The scenery on these roads is unsurpassed
on the coast.

Several surveys have been made for irri-
eating canals within the past two or three
years by such public-spirited citizens
as n D. Rideout, II. B. Julian, John
Boggs, L. F. Moulton, w. S. Green and
others, and it was ascertained, that for
total expenditure of less than million
dollars an area embracing $50 square miles
of land could be thoroughly irrigated. The
capitalists who had thought of investing
their money in these enterprises were fully
satisfied with the outlook and determined
on proceeding with the work. But they
