ladies OF the Woman's Christian Associa.
ton of this city are working willingly
and eagerly, not only to lmeliorate
where it is possible, the physical condi.
ton OF the needy, but TO show them
their power to help themselves and bear
to them the Gospel Of Christ. Tho
meeting Of the Association Just held
showed the work Of the month to have
been thirty-six homes visited and $50
religious tracts and papers distributed.
But everywhere is felt the great need OF
a city missionary. Miss Boyd, the for

the Association, and every well wisher
OF the city feels her departure to have
been public loss.

WATER STORAGE.
The question Of storing water for use
in irrigating the desert lands of this
State is an important ono to our poo-
pie, and should demand tho attention
Of our Legislature. In this county
alone there are thousands of acres of
arid land which, by the construction
Of dams in our numerous mountain
canyons to store tho water furnished by
tho melting snow in the Spring, could
be made productive and thus be the
means of attracting to us q large and
desirable immigration that now goes
through to the Golden State. These
dams could, in some instances, DO con-
structed with small outlay of money
and the area of land that could be irri.
gated by the water thus stored would
produce large crops of hay and cereals
that would yield rich returns for tho in
vestment. In soil and climate Elko
county has the advantage Of California,
and lacks only the water necessary to
irrigate her rich lands to make Thorn as
productive Oh those OF any section Of
the Pacific Coast. This oan be 40
complished, as above sta tod, by storing
the water furnished by the melting
SHOWS in the mountains, as has been
proven by tho success Of the Nevada
Land and Cattle Company in squaw
Valley, this county, whore the waters
Of Willow Creek are stored and used
in irrigAtIng land that hitherto has been
unoultivatsd. Their success should
prompt others to follow their example
and make use Of the water that every
season goes TO waste. Lot our LegiBlA.
turo bring this subject to the attention
Of our Representatives in Congress and
AJAX them to secure an appropriation
from the general government to aid in
the enterprise, and thus thousands Of
acres of land which 10 now practically
worthless would be restored and the
government would DO able TO sell the
same 70 permanent settlers who would
take advantage Of tho opportunity to se.
cure valuable homes and our State
would rapidly increase in population
and wealth.
WILD oAMS AND FISH.
During tho past ten years q number
OF our prominent citizens and sports
men have devoted much time and means
to tho importation aud transplanting OF
useful game and fish, such az par
tridges, several speoirs Of quail, eto
eastern trout and other useful food
HSh, all OF which will thrive and do
we'll here. But owing to the total dis
regard for. and lenionoy Of the proper
authorities in enforcing the wholesome
laws passed for their preservation. both
game and Ash arc in danger OF becom-
ing every year deoimated and finally
