Population, 19,270; agriculture,
lumbering and fruits. An estimate of last year's cut, given in
round numbers, for the eleven saw mills in the county, shows an
aggregate of 50,000,000 feet. Wine making is rapidly coming to
the front as permanent among the interests of Santa Cruz county.
There are several factories in a thriving condition, while its
transportation facilities may be judged of from the fact that
there are fourteen railway stations and five steamer landings
within the county limits. Santa Cruz is the county seat. Its
fine surf-bathing facilities are known all over the United
States. Assessed valuation, $11,784,459.
