Lambert Snelt, q Nevada country
farmer, was thrown from his horse and
killed on the 2lst. His foot caught in
the stirrup and he was dragged nearly
mile over the toughest kind Of road.
1t is estimated that the Sacramento
Valley, from Suisun bay on the south
to Shasta on the north, contains 81
$4,000 acres of level valley land; and
if the rolling foothills were included
to an elevation of $500 feet above the
level of the sea, or as far up as. the
cereals can be raised, the number of
acres would be doubled, or would
amount to at least seven millions and
half. fall this land were sown in
wheat, says the Real Estate Circular,
and the small crop of fifteen bushels to
the acre only was reaped from it, the
total crop would amount to liz, $780,
900 bushels, which at even 81 per
bushel would amount to as many dol
lars. Some day, and that not many
years distant, all of this land will GER
tainly produce crops, either of grain,
wool, wine or fruit equal in value to
hese figures.
