STATE OFvSONORA d
c
The star of Sonora, which is rc-!c
ported to ~ave withdrawn from the, e
Republic of Mexico, is the most A- ]merican
region in Mexico, according r
to a bulletin of the National Geo-:
graphic Society. I {
"Here in Sonora the American
ideal has iaken particularly deep
root," writs Frederick Simpich in a ^
communication to The Society.
* "Mexicans from other states call j j
these Sonora natives 'the Yankees of, (
Mexico because of their thrift, ad- j
vancement, and close relations with j
the Americans. Practically all fami- J
*ies of the merchant and ranching jj
classes send their children to schools I
in the United States. ( j *
"These younsters, returning to
Mexico, are proud of their English?
and their Yankee slang. They wear (
American made clothes, dance all the
popular 'steps' and display an understanding
of American ideals which i *
can only make of them more friendly c
and helpful commei'cial neighbors in (
the years tocome.
s "Even now the average home in
northwest Mexico is largely furnish- S
ed with American wares?the Yankee
sewing machine the piano, grapho- q
\ phone, kitchen range, brass bed and v
baby carriage are everywhere. And ?
from Uncle Sam's factories our Mexi- s
can neighbors get most of their ready i
made clothing, their shoes, hats n
vehicles, farming implements, canned,
foods, and sporting goods. I

"Strikes have never disturbed
lis camp. Its American managers
re required to learn the language of
he country, to study the psychology
f the people, and to respect their
ustoms and traditions. When one of
his company's native engineers
acrificed his life in an explosion to
ave many fellow workmen, the comany
named the town plaza in his
onor and built a monument to his
lemory.
"The change in plant and animal
fe and industries as you pass from
Li'izona into Mexico is very slight
or the first 200 miles or more. Had
hey not searched your trunk at the
ustom-house, and maybe charged
ou duty on that new camera, you
light not /have realized that you had
rossed a frontier. It is only after
ou quit the high, rolling grassy
anges of northern S'onora and strike
he Yaqui valley below Guaymas that
new world reveals itself. Here the
right, colorful life of the vast
oasted plaiiio begins.
"Many of the same forage grasses
hat cover the great Arizona ranges
re also found in Sonora and Sinoloa.
'he beans of the mesquite tree are
ikewise very fattening, and it is no
ncommon sight to see a Mexican
eifer stand on her hind legs and
each for the higher twigs of this
ucculent bush.
"One odd class of prospector?
lakes a good living hunting bat
aves. In the hill countries of Sinoln
nd Sonoi'a the Mexican bat breeds
\
y the thousands, and makes it home
n caves among rock cliffs. Here dei-.;?its
