Hot SPRINGS Scattered In

| The Taos valley is natural basin
about thirty-flve miles broad and twen-
ty-f1ve miles long. 1t Is entirely sur
rounded by mountains, the Sangre dc
! Cristo range on the north, east and
south and the continental divide on the
west. 1t is one OF the best watered and
drained portions Of New Mexico, the Rio
Grande flowing through its center from
north to south.
| THE COUNTY SEAT.
Taos, the county seat, has about 1,50G
inhabitants, two no tells, three churches
and three schools 1t is typical adobe
town, and reminds travellers of Egypt
Taos is situated on the southwestern
| slope of spur of the Sangre de Cristo
| mountains.
PRECIPITATION.
| The average precipitation in the Taos
valley is about 10 inches per year. The
soil is sandy loan. Eight never fail
ing streams flow through the valley
from the mountains to feed the Rio
Grande.
ALTITUDE AND SUNSHINE.
The altitude is about $500 feet, and
| this makes 1t an ideal resort for inva-
lids, warm, bright, sunshiny days and
| cool nights. The roads are good for
driving. riding and bicycling. Fishing
and hunting are unexcelled. In fact, 1t
Is an ideal place for one who wishes to

A SALUBRIOUs DISTRICT.
Typhoid and malaria are unknown,
and it seems to be country of longev-
ity. Here we see many men and women
from 80 to 100 years old. Acute diseases
are almost unknown.
A HISTORIC REGION.
1t is a safe estimate to say that
there are over 300 sunshiny days in a
year in the Taos valley. The tourist
and health-seeker will find here many
things to interest them, particularly the
Taos pueblo. called by Lummis "The
American Pyramids" Here one can
study the customs of centuries ago,
folklore tales. and try to fathom out
the secrets of the "kivas" or council
chambers, and many ceremonial func-
tions and mystic dances. Here one can
find rest from the daily monotony of
an active life and recuperate his gray
matter 1t is an ideal spot for sum-
mer's outing, and win compare favor
ably with a trip to Egypt, while not
taking up so much time and being less
expensive.
