which will prove profitable under improved
methods Of reduction.
The southwest presents a variety of topo-
graphic features, and many of its economic
resources are closely related to them There
Is great range in altitude, with corresponding
variation in climatic conditions. One of the
most salient features is the wide, high plateau
OF northern Arizona, which reaches an alti-
tude of 5000 feet. It is surmounted by varl-
Gus volcanic peaks notably San Francisco
peak. which is 1851 feet above sea level
To the east this district merges into an
irregular series Of high plateaus. constituting
the western half Of New Mexico.
To the west and south 1t drops by huge
steps into the great region Of desert valleys
or blossoms of Nevada. western Arizona, and
i southeastern California. These deserts are
wide long plains. lying between mountain
ridges Of varying lengths and heights, ridges
which are all very rocky and mostly treeless
and trend north and south.
extends the long curving ridge of the Sierra
Madre and San Bernardino mountains, be-
tween which and the ocean lies the large oval
area known the valley of southern Califor-
mia. This valley is the great citrus fruit dis
trict, and Los Angeles.
There are two great rivers in the south
west, the Colorado and the Rio Grande The
Colorado river has been compared to the Nile
and the similarity is notable. Both are
streams Of the first rank. rising in high noun
tains. and finally crossing broad region of
semi-tropical, nearly rainless deserts Both
empty into seas in nearly the same latitude
and their lower courses through wide DEL
tas of fertile soil. The annual overfows add
new sediments fertile with plant food and at
time favorable for the crops
The agricultural capabilities are closely
similar, but while much Of the lower Nile val
ley is utilized the Colorado valley is just be-
ginning to be settled. The watershed area of
the Colorado. with its two head branches the
Green and the Grand, is over 100000 square
miles. its course 1000 miles in length and its
annual discharge is 100000 acre-feet, or
