colonizing White River Valley.

The last White Pine News says:
Some thirteen wagon-loads of
Mormon settlers have passed through
Ely during the week, bound for the
Church ranches in White River val
ley where they expect to make their
homes in the future. Each colonist
is allowed to buy Is acres of alfalfa
land with water rights at $16 an acre
and one town lot containing an acre
ofground for $25, thus making a
total Of 16 acres for 1865, with seven
years in which to pay it. Only the
men are coming out from Utah at
present and it is their intention to
put in their crops and build some
sort of shelters before going fol-
their families.
The Pahranagat and Moapa Val
leys in this county will be quickly
colonized in the same way as soon al
they become more accessible to I
railroad. The lands there are more
productive than those now being set
tied near Ely, yet it will be noticed
that comparatively small tract i
taken by each party.
Throughout the southern part o
this county many families hold bu
from ten to fifteen acres and make
living off it. It is about as mucl
land as one man can work when pre-
perly divided between alfalfa an
fruit.

Search Lights On Land.

The recent night attacks on Britt
ish army posts in India have led to the
suggestion that all such exposed mill
tary camps be provided with power
full electric search lights, like those
used by war-ships. With bright beams
playing over the surrounding coun-
try, it is argued, the danger of night at
tacks would be greatly diminished,
and sentries and outlying pickets could
be protected from the assassin, who. it
is asserted, not infrequently stalk them
like gene and murder them in the dark
eas.--Youth's Companion.
