It is the proud boast of the residents of Sonoma that they have the finest county in the State. To prove that claim, they point to the fact that they have never had a failure of crops; to their climate; to the superiority of their vineyards, producing annually two and a half million gallons of wine; their table grapes, stone and seed fruit, vegetables, potatoes, corn, cereals, and blooded livestock; their lumber, their mines, their railroads which bear these varied products of the soil to a ready market; to their bay and seacoast front, which renders a monopoly to transportion impossible; their schools, and churches, and thriving towns; their mineral springs, their unrivaled scenery, their redwood forests, their fertile valleys and lofty hills. We have outlined the county of Sonoma from the Valhalla to the Huichica, and from the Estero Americano to its northeast corner in the Mayacmas range, and reluctantly bid the reader good-bye.
