San Francisco, Feb. 25-From
Guaymas south to Mazatlan, 734
miles below the United States, one
of the most fertile and rapidly
developing agricultural areas in
the continent is opening up.
Sixteen rivers, flowing west
ward from the Sierra Madre wall
to the sea water this subtropical
territory. Irrigation is necessary
in the northern states of Sonora
and Sinaloa, but is not needed in
the river valleys of Nayarit with
their rich alluvial deltas.
The climate is so warm and the
Land so productive that West Coast
melons start for the United States
in November and tomatoes in De-
cember.
Thousands of carloads of these
products, together with sugar cane,
bananas, tobacco, rice, wheat and
garbanzos (chic-peas) may be seen
moving southwark to Mexico City
or north to Nogales.
h American colonists are pene-
trating this littIe-developed ooun-
try, despite the stringent Mexican
land ownership laws. Cajeme,
home of the late General Alvaro
Obregon, is also the home OF
many American farmers and
growers.
Gold, copper and minerals
abound in the Sierra Madres to
the east, and are brought down
to the main line by various bran
ches from the mining centers.
The territory is rich in historic
background as well as in present
day agriculture and mining.
Culiacan, 500 miles down the
coast from Arizona, was once, in
the days of Spanish rule, the
capital of a vast area, including
California, New Mexico and Ari-
zona.
At San Bias, 46 miles away, the
southwestern most segment of the
great dreamed-of railway system,
the Kansas City, Mexico & Orient,
taps the Sud-Pacifico mainline
and is operating with renewal
vitality itself under the recently
acquired direction of the Santa
Fe system.
This section of the Orient runs
from Topolobampo, on the sea,
through San Bias to Ell Fuerte in
the mountains. Another section
operates in the state of Chinua-
hua, and still another from
Wichita, Kansas down the Texas
Panhandle to San Angelo.

connected, under the ownership of

promoters dream of a railway

Specially Made Rayon
 Takes Different Dyes

WILMINGTON, Del, Dec. 16.- Rayon making has advanced to
 where it is possible to put a piece Isuccessively into two dyes and have some threads take one color while the remaining fibers take only the other
 This cannot be done with any piece of rayon, but only with that specially woven. The color selectivity is due, says
 report of the research depart ment of the Du Pont Company, to
 development of varied methods of
 making rayon, particularly one which employs acetic acid the sub stance which causes cider to turn to vinegar.
 The Acetate variety takes cer- tain dyes which other threads re- sist, so that by weaving two kinds of rayon threads. unusual dye tricks can be performed.
