RESOURCES.
The bulk of the resources of this county are yet dormant. The mountains are full of minerals; timber is abundant; grassy hillsides are tempting to the sheep and cattle, while the soil is rich, and when tilled will be found to produce excellent crops. The county has a fine future for wealth from all these sources, and, while the mines are first to be made productive, without doubt the fruits and cereals will come into their own in time and furnish much of its wealth.
