Patagonia business interests at Q
o'clock.
This meeting, it is believed, WIN
be the forerunner of steps to be
taken toward giving much publ
city to the Patagonia mining d.
trict. 1t is realized that the great
est need of the rich Patagonia d.
trict in order to attract capital to
develope that great mining area
IS publicity.
Every business man in Nogales,
whether a member of the Cham
Der of Commerce or not, should
take part in the motorcade, there
by getting jbetter acquainted with
the Patagonians, and learning
from them first hand just what
the district offers in the way OF
opportunities.
Prominent mining men arriving
at Patagonia since mining recent
ly took on new life throughout
ihe country have expressed them
selves greatly surprised at the op-
portunities existing at Patagonia.
All declare that steps should be
taken to advertise Patagonia to
the world. Development of the
Patagonia district will help both
Patagonia and Nogales greatly.
