 "Certain peculiarities Of csnsigre seem favorable to i's agricultural future:

 2. T. e climate is mild in this season Of he Year and labor i. therefore more crrl 'n-.able ard effective.
 3. n case of extreme drouth the crop is no: lost bu: the plan. simply stops growth and waits for better con- di.ions.
 4. Harvesting may occur at any time, the mature crop remaining in the ground indefinitely without injury. and even with . certain amount Of improvement.
 As to the value Of the product, it appears that under existing conditions the objective point is crop which can be 90 d at from five to seven dollars ton"

HORIZONS IN MEXICO.
From U. s. Consnl Louis M
 Buford's Report.

The Mormons have ten colonies in northern Mexico. Nine of them are in the state of Chihuahua and one is situated in the state of sonora.
 In ths lower vaileys, the colonists raise cattle, fruit and grain; and in the mountains they attend to general farming, growing vegetables and grain and raising sheep.
 They are likewise largely engaged In the lumber trade. running four stesm saw mills. besides doing great deal of tanL,ng, shoe and harness making, canning and drying fruit, and manufacturing furniture. tinware and candy.
 Their merchants, aside from the trade with their own people, do con siderable business with the Mexicans, who flock to the Mormon stores from ali directions, coming with their pack trains and their mule and OK teams from hundreds of miles to lay in pro- visions and other supplies.
 One store at Colonia Juarez. during the past year, did over S60, GOO worth of trade.
 Many of the Mormon colonists are engaged in buying and selling Chihus hus ssd Sonora cattle, and one of their firms handled about 500, 900 worth oi live stock last year.
 The principal markets for their pro tuce gre at present the mines of Cor ralitss and Sabiusl. For their milch cove, csnnsd goods, etc., they find ready sale in the city of Chihuahua.
 The holdings o! the Mormon colo nists are iu the finest portions of northern Mexico. The soil is very rich and produ ;,ise, and with the ad- vent of railroads mus. become greatly enhanced in vslne. At present they are from I35 to 200 miles from any railway.
