Making a Great Showing.

Upon several occasions lately TIE OASIS has mentioned the "Providencia," "Dormido" and ad- jacent mines, the property of Mir. H. K. Chenoweth and his brother Doctor W. F. Chenoweth, both of Nogales. Development work con tinuing upon the fine properties daily adds to the extent and value of the ore bodies. The ores are high grade, free milling gold rock, carrying in large quantities free gold, visible to the naked eye. Assays show the rock to run about $40. gold per ton. Upon the "Pro- valencia" alone there are in sight, ready for stoping, one thousand tons of that kind of rock, reaching an aggregate value of $40,000 in the proved ore body. Upon the "Dormido" work is now being vigorously prosecuted, and the showing is outstripping that al- ready made upon the "Providen- cia." Geologically the formation is fine, gold bearing rock, and the
 properties are in the very center of a rich region pronounced by the eminent geologist, Professor Robert T. Hill, of the United States geolo- gical survey, lone of the greatest gold regions anywhere in the world" The Announcements held by the lucky owners are large and extensive, and with development and machinery for reduction will doubtless very shortly reach the first rank of productive gold mine.

ings. The cations through the foothills are well wooded with beautiful groves of sycamore, mes quite, box alder, walnut and oak trees; over the foothills is scattered growth of medium sized oak trees, while the oak and pine forests in the mountains include some 30,000 acres of timber with a great prospective value.
 The development of the great mineral wealth in the Cananea mountains, close it hand, has sup piled a permanent market for all the productions that can be turned off from the ranche.
 Beside the Cocospera they have recently received from the Mexican government patents to the Santa Teresa grant and other lands ad jacent to the Cocospera, and equally valuable, all united mak- ing principality.
 Proto Brothers are devoting un- remitting attention and large capital to the gradual development of all the latent possibilities of this great domain, and are fast making it one of the greatest and best appointed haciendas in Mex leo, producing a great variety of values and within easy reach of the best markets.

A GREAT PROPERTY
The Cocospera and Santa Teresa Ranches of Proto Brothers in the Msgdalena District of Sonora.

Recently TIE OASIS man passed a couple of days at the Cocospera ranche of Proto Brothers, which extends across the valley of the Cocospera river in the Magdalena district of Sonora, from the summit of the Pinita mountains on the west to the summits of the Sierra Azul and Cocospera ranges on the east, and includes about l44,000 acres of as fine land as there is in Sonora, embracing great variety of mountain, mesa and valley land, well timbered and watered giving great areas of lands, upon which are grazing fine herds of cattle; fine bodies of arabic land susceptible of the highest cultiva- ton, with development possible of an unfaiing supply of water for irrigation and cultivation; and in the mountains great forests of pine and oak which will prove a re- source of inestimable value.
 The land included in the grant is reached in a ride of about eight miles from Imuris, and the home ranche, which is about twenty-one miles from that station, Is located in about the center of the tract. At this place there is now under cultivation large area of land, where alfalfa and grain are raised, and a very fine orchard of 300 trees is growing. Below the ranche there are many other handsome and fertile areas likewise under cultivation. As an illustration of the surprising fertility of the land Mir. Luis Proto relates that year or so ago he experimented with the yield of single fanega of wheat. He first prepared the land very carefully, blowing and crossplowing and thoroughly pulverizing the soil. The seed was then planted, in due season properly irrigated and at harvest time was cut and threshed separately. From that one fanega of wheat the yield was EIGHTY fanegas of splendid grain. The usual yield under ordinary methods is fifteen to twenty-one.
 In all there are some 15,000 acres of cultivable land, and by the judicious construction of reservoirs, for which there are many eligible sites, the waters from vast water shed can be stored and utilized for the irrigation and cultivation of all that great area. This work is already in hand and is being ex- tended from year to year, so that within a few years it will be all completed
 The herds upon the Cocospera ranche are graded Herefords and Durhams, the quality of blood being gradually improved by the importation of finer strains until within a few years the cattle will all be of the highest grades, from thoroughbred bulls of the finest strains of blood.
 The Cocospera river and it's tributaries drain the tract, and the river runs down through the cen ter. Here and there its banks are lined with beautiful clumps of cot tonwood, walnut and mesquite trees, which beautify the landscape and give charm to the surround
