Ell VALE AND GALEANA.

For many miles south of Nueva
Casas Grandes, and all tributary to
that town, reached via Chocolate
pass, is prosperous ranch country,
having an abundance of water from
the rivers Santa Maria and San
Miguel.
The towns of Ell Vale, Galeana and
Cruces are along the present stage
route, which is on the line of the pro-
posed extension of the Sierra Madre
railway, the main line of which is
headed for Guerrero, and ultimately
the Pacific coast. The survey has
been made to point ten miles south
of FL Vale.
Ell Vale is town of nearly 5000
inhabitants, and is one of the pref
test towns as well as one of the most
prosperous communities in northern
Mexico.
The Santa Maria river furnishes
excellent irrigation. The town has,
like Colonia Juarez, many shade
trees, and it presents very enticing
and hOmelike appearance.
Much wheat is raised and while the
district is distinctly fruit country,
small garden truck is being raised
in abundance. Peaches and pea
nuts are Ell Valle's stand-bys.
Galeana and Cruces, farther down
the valley, are also in the midst of a
fine agricultural and fruit raising
country. Ell Vale has its corn and grist
mill, Galeana, also, having a Touring
mill

year after year, to buy improved ma
chinery to work with and the orchards
become matured, the aggregate re-
suits of each season becomes greater.
The large influx of new people
who are daily arriving to engage in
farming for a livelihood, must when
they get settled, bring the annual
yield in all kinds of grain, market
produce and fruits of the district, up
to tremendous output, yet there
will be market for it all.
No other enconium on the fertility
of the soil is needed when it is stated
that the Mormons are here and are
coming in in large numbers.
They are the people that made the
great desert of Utah blossom as the
rose, and are fast bringing the new
country to that pastoral perfection
for which the great Salt Lake valley
is now famous.
Imagination cannot conceive of the
blessings that may be expected from
the wise and economical utilization

AGRICULTURE And

Great Progress in These Two Lines
and Good Crops are the Rule.

The Casas Grandes country has a
number of desirable resources, any
particular one of which, if developed,
must result in building up a thickly
populated community somewhere in
the district.
The great mining possibilities of the
territory have been usually spoken of
as its chief feature, though it as we'll
as the agricultural and stock raising
capabilities of the country, is still
only in its infancy.
The progress that has been made in
general farming and fruit raising and
the increase in production of the
farms in the vicinity of Nueva Casas

) Took RAISING.

While many head of cattle are
raised by the inha bitants of the little
group of towns in the Casas Grandes
valley, Dublan having a shipping
stock yards, its the country to the
south that is the great cattle raising
territory. The hacienda of ex-Gov-
ernor Terrazas is reached by the rail-
way, being but ten miles south. 1t is
said that General Terrazas owns over
100000 head of cattle, and his ranches
give him an increase of 10000 calves
each year. Two-thirds of the state
of Chihuahua is said to be owned by
this one man, it being used for the
most part as ranges for his cattle.
He is easily the cattle king of the
world.
A number of large American cattle
companies have large herds of cattle

blooded stock farm of the Hearst
estate is in that district. The Cor

interests. Cattle, sheep, hogs and

ton could be sustained in the val

The present crops include corn and
wheat at Colonias Dublan, and Diaz,
corn atsColonia Garcia, oats and po-
tatoes at Hidalgo and Chuichuipa,
while alfalfa seems to do best at Co
lonia JuareZ.
Of course these crops are supple
mented at each place by the raising
of the smaller garden truck and fruit,
the soil at Colonia Juarez seeming to
be particularly well adapted to gar
dening and fruit raising.
It would indeed be difficult to find a
better gardening or fruit raising land
than along Piedras Verde river The
finest varieties of potatoes are raised
in abundance, watermelons and musk
melons are raised in considerable
quantities, while in it's warm, rich
valleys figs and peanuts also do

other vegeta bles; and in fruits, plums,

Poultry raising could be made very
profitable; bee keeping could be en-
gagged in on a large scale; a dairy
would be a paying venture; every
branch of stock raising from the
blooded stock farm of magnificent
horses and cattle to the industry of
swine raising would bring sure and
extraordinary returns.

PRETTY COLONIA JUAREZ.

Lying in a picturesque valley, linn
tied in size, but no limit to landscape
beauties, is Colonia Juarez, the first
of the Mormon settlements to rise in
Mexico and the model of the other
little hamlets growing into habita-
BILE communities.
1t is 16 miles from Casas Grandes
station, the places being connected
by daily stage, and the traveller who

would not prefer the restful shade of
such an ideal village, where one can
commune with nature the live-long
day and enjoy it's sweet pastoral
quiescence, to the industrial hum of
the metropolis?
Everywhere is evident that artis-
tic taste in landscape beauties for
which the Mormon people are noted,
and the natural grandeur of the pref
ty vale has been improved upon until
it presents an appearance az near
like paradise as is ever given NOR
tai eyes to look upon. Even the we'll
fed house dog, coming to greet the
stranger with a wagg1ng tale, is a
mute sign that peace and content
ment reign here supreme, if those
twin virtues are found at all in the
world.
Watch the rosy checked lads and
lassies tripping homeward from school
talk with the happy and contented
people of their prospects and ambi-
tions-live among them for a few
days and one will leave the commnni-
ty with regret, feeling that he is bid
ding farewell to Utopia.
If you cannot accept the religion
of these people, how well you would
like to enjoy the happiness it seems
to bring; or is their well known thrift
and industry mainly responsible for
the happy order of things that so evil
IDENTIFY prevails among them?
Juarez is the oldest of the colonies,
and when you admire aloud the charm
of the whole scene, the pleased in
habitant will tell you that it's beau
ties will be repeated at Dublan, Diaz
and the other Mormon colonies, when
they are as old as this.
Colonia Dublan is especially well
situated and will become exceeding
ly attractive when the trees that have
been planted in recent seasons attain
Here is also followed out the Salt
Lake city plan of having stream of
pure and sparkling water flowing
down either side of the street, which
furnishes irrigation for the trees and
small garden patches, is a constant
source of delight to the thirsty stock
and is used by the Mormon housewife
for almost every domestic purpose
but drinking. Parks are already
laid out in Dublan, and Nueva Casas
Grandes which borders the colony on
the south, is also to have these desi-
xxvi%1 =,
shady avenues and beautiful drives.
May they also copy the ideal home
like scenes that are such a gladstone
picture in pretty Juarez. The houses
are all costly furnished, the little par
lors are most cheerful, and here, far
away from commercial centers where
books can be bought, are little libra
ries containing the works of the best
authors, and not there only to make
the room more attractive as one will
find in starting a conversation with
the very intelligent young people of
the household.
Colonia Juarez has an excellent
academy, spoken of elsewhere, and
also has it's mutual improvement So
cieties FOR young people, and a La
dies Aid society and a"Primary" So
ciety for children.
The Young Ladies Mutual Improve
ment society meets once a week, the
young mems society of the same
name meets as regular, and once a
month the two have joint meeting,
at which there are debates, a itera-
ry program is furnished and extracts
from the Advocate, a journal edited
by the members of both societies are
read, and general intellectual feast
is enjoyed.
