One great drawback has been the shadow of a great land grant that has been rejected by the Interior Depart ment, but is in the courts now with every prospect of speedy adjudi. cation and rejection there. With that out of the way there will be turned in that direction a stream of homeseekers which will settle the valley very rapidly.

 RAILROAD FACILITIES The county is served by two branches of the Southern Pacific, the Tucson x Nogales Railroad from Tucson to Calabasas, where it intersects the New Mexico x Ari- zona railway, from Benson to No gales. Trains are run through from Nogales to Benson and No. gales to Tucson, connecting at buth places with main line trains in either direction, and at the line city with trains to and from all points on the West Coast reached by the lines of the Southern Pacific of Mexico. Other lines which the county will need in the near future will be one from Vail's station, on the main line of the Southern Pacific, down through the Elgin region and San Rafael valley to connection with the Nogales- Cana nea line at or near Gorilla station, on the Mexican boundary, to haudle the traffic which will arise with development of the eastern part of the county; another from Amadovile in southwesterly direction, to tap the Orc Blanco region, giving an outlet there to the rich mineral region developing; and a third line across from Tubac along the west and south sides of the Santa Rita mountains to Pata- gonia, thence southward along the Patagonia mountains to meet the wants and needs of the great min- eral regions developing in those mountains.
 THE TOWNS
 Within the county are few in num- Der as yet, and beside Nogales com. prise Patagonia, Harshaw, Tubac and Gro Blanco. The first named is lively place twenty-seven miles from Nogales, on the Nogales. Ben- son branch of the Southern Pacific. It is situated near the north end of the Patagonia mountains. The min eral development taking place in those regions and in the Santa Rita mountains on the northwest, are giving the town decided impetus Telephone lines connect the place with the Alto mines in the Santa Ritas and with the Mowry mines in the Patagonia mountains. Mail stages, carrying passengers, run from Patagonia to Harshaw, Mowry and Washington Camp, making the round trip daily except Sundays. A mail goes also to Alto.
 Harshaw is one of the oldest mining camps in this part of Ari- zona, and has been very lively place.
 Tubac is an old town which gees back in history to the time of the early Spanish occupation, and it was place of some importance at the time of the American occupa- tiop.
 Orc Blanco is another old town which has seen better days, but is coming to the front again with the new development
 , Elgin is a town in embryo, but with development of the agricul. 7 tural and horticultural possibilities , of the Rain Valley it is destined to l become place of great importance. 3 In drawing to close the forego-

 FINE APPLES
 P. J. Mccarthy of Camille and James Brash of Patagonia on the Sonoita )have marketed large quan- titles. Two years ago Mir. George Beebe sent to New York several boxes of apples from the Mccarthy place, and they were pronounced by experienced fruit dealers as finer than anything in that line that had come to that market from any other part of the United States. In the coming years, when the or chards that are projected and that will be planted come into bearing, the apple growing industry in San ta Cruz County will attain colossal proportions, and the exportation of that luscious and health giving fruit to Eastern markets will go forward by trainloads.
 DAIRY PRODUCTS
 will become also among the sources of wealth to the part of the county herein described, and among those who have made already starts for fine herds of dairy cattle are Mir. Leonard w. Klene near the Pima county line, ,northward from Elgin, and MT. H. D. Carver and Maojr F. A. Putnam, in the vicinity of Sonoita station, westward from Elgin. MT. George Beebe, at Elgin, contemplates also entering in the dairy business on an extensive scale, and is planning to establish creamery, to handle his own milk and to buy from all the farmers in the vicinity.
 The long established farming re- zion in Santa Cruz county lies along the valley of the Santa Cruz, extending from the International boundary at point about six miles directly eastward from Nogales, in a northwesterly direction about thirty miles to the Pima county line at Amadoville. The first set clements in this valley were made by the Franciscan friars, with Father Kino at the head of the missionary band, who established missions at Huebabi and Tumaca cOri, the ruins of which latter build ing are yet in fair state of pres ervation at point in the valley about twenty miles northward from the line The Huebabi mission has disappeared long since, and the site is marked by nothing except a small mound of earth, the debris ot the long ago crumbled walls ot adobe. This mission site Is about six miles northward from the line In establishing these missions anC that of San Xavier, near Tucson the devout friar came from Caborca in the Altar district of Sonora bringing with him, so wrote th' historian of their
