WAYSIDE NOTES.
An Interesting Trip to Prominent Points
 in the san Miguel Valley, sonora.

At Tuape l received cordial welcome from Mir. James G. Chism, who has been engaged in business in that place seventeen years. Originally from California MT. Chism went to Tombstone when that great camp was in the hey day of its prosperity. He was employed by one of the mining companies there as a blacksmith. Thence he went to Santa Elena; ill the em- ploy of the company which bought that great gold mine from General Pesqueira. After two or three years with them he located at Tuape and engaged in merchandising. He is also heavily interested in agriculture and cattle growing and has been interested in one or two successful mining deals. He was interested with Doctor Alderman and MT. Spires in the Klondike sale, and the fortunate buyers are assured ofa bonanza. Many of the fine ranches up and down the river both ways from Tuape are the property of MT. c. and those cult ivating them work upon shares, although several of the best he manages personally. Beside his own crop Mir. Chism buys from the small farmers along the river, and his tenants and ships to Te- rrenate and Hermosillo each season about 5000 fanegas os wheat. A fa- mega is ISo pounds. He has at Tuape a small flour mill with which he does custom work for the small ranchers.
 Cultivation oi sugar cane and manufacture of "panocha" was once great industry along the San Miguel river, but removal of the state duty has made it possible for Sinaloa sugar producers to undersell at Guaymas and Hermo- sillo the product of this part of the country, and as a consequence only sufficient 'panocha" for home consumption is now produced. In former times Rayon was great sugar producing section, and MT. Chism informs me that the output of "panocha" annually produced in that vicinity reached the hand some value of SIoo, ,ooo.
 Another old resident at Tuape is Doctor Elm Alderman who has been there about fourteen years. Previous 10 that time he practiced medicine at Ores and elsewhere in Sonora.
 Fortunate sales of good mining properties he had denounced have placed him Ion Easy street." and be practices now only as matter of accommodation. Doctor Alder man is a native of Pennsylvania, and was brought up in Ohio. Com ing west many years ago he located in the practice of his profession at
The oasis., 1901-06-08
Tucson, where he resided several

years
 Sunday morning MT. Chism
 showed me about the town, which is small villa of about Goo people The principal point of interest is an old church dating fully 200 years back. The building is of goodly size, of adobe, and is not in the very best repair. Adjacent to that structure are crumbling mounds of adobes which MT. c. in- formed me were the ruins of what was once a large convent, the home of a large number of nuns. In front of the church, hanging to a parallel bar set upon two uprights, are three old, copper bells, the
 largest bearing the year of its cast ing-I6oo. It is wonderfully clear and pure in tone. The mine from which the copper in these bells was extracted lies in the mountains not far eastward from the town.
 At Tuape 1 learned that another mining deal of importance has re- gently been made by Doctor AL derman, who has sold to the Wash ington people who own the Cerro Prieto property two mines in the mountains east from Tuape. They are named the Nacimiento and La Lave. La Lave has big ledge of ore bearing gold and silver, and the other mine has a small ledge, running very high in values in the same metals. Already a force of men is doing development work, and mill will be erected 10 reduce the ores. It was to attend business of a legal nature in connection with this deal that Doctor Alderman was upon his way to Ures when 1 met him. The new company which has been formed to take over and work these properties is called the Rich field Mining Company. The directors are Hon. Jesse B. Wilson, Judge R. E. Doan. Manager J. A. Cooper and MT, J. w. Briggs of Washington, D. C., and MT. James G. Chism of Tuape. The prop critics are considered of the very best description, and the new owners are believed to have secured a bonanza.
 MT. Lauro Morales of Ures also owns number of fine farms along the San Miguel river.
 From Opodepe I made the return journey to Copete Monday without incident or anything worthy off note.
 My trip had taken me along about forty miles of the valley of the San Miguel river, very fine region. The point where entered it is about fifteen miles above Car bonera, the place where I visited MT. c. s. Mills, the day preceding my outset for the trip up the river, from Carbonera the river flows to juction with the Sonora river, a few miles from Her

towns ot Horcasitas, Los Angeles
 and Pesqueira, At Los Angeles is
 the big cotton mill of C.. Moller &,
 Co. Sues, of Guaymas. The head
 waters of the river are upon the
 south slope of the Cananea noun
 tains, about sixty miles above
 Tuape. beyond which place are two
 towns Cucurpe and Dolores. In the mountains in the vicinity of the first named town are three good mining camps the Cucurpe, owned by people from the State of Wash ington; Cerro Prieto. where Wash ington, D. C. capitalists have a good property upon which they have erected 2o-stamp mill-It is reported that they intend increas- ing the capacity to 100 stamps-apd the Klondyke camp where tue Empora Mining Co. (Mr. J. F. Tener and associates) are develop ing very valuable property.
 All the way from Dolores to the month of the San Miguel, the valley is susceptible of a very high state of cultivation, and there are many fine ranches. Near Pesqueira Don Vic. tor Aguilar, state treasurer, owns a very fine property of many thous- and acres, which he is developing to high state of perfection. Mir. Aguilar has driven a number of wells for irrigation, in all of which the water rises close to the surface, ard from one it flows over plainly demonstrating that the flow is art. esian. Experts declare that strong flows of artesian water would be developed by drilling to lower water strata than that cut by Mir. Aguilar.
 The Sonora railway enters the valley of the San Miguel near Pes uueira station. The line of the rail- way leaves the line valley at Santa Ana, and passing Llano, Querobabi, Posa, Carbo and Selva traverses broad plain between the two rivers. This plain comprises of acres of rich, fertile soil, supceptible of the widest, most varied and profitable agricultural production in the world. All that vast plain will one day be under cultivation, irrigated from the artesian flow beneath.
 Tuesday morning I took the stage from Copete to Carbo, and reached the latter place in the after noon, terminating another very pleasant trip in Sonora and another batch of Wayside Notes, which can be appropriately closed with an ex- pression of thanks to Messrs Hard wick, Mills, Vasabilbaso, Chisin and others along the way for hos pitalities extended and services rendered.
 I visited all of Sunday morning with MT Chism, and when bade 1im "good bye" after dinner had | n my pocket handsome contract !
