The success OF Messrs Cohn and

fornia people to settle in the Carson
Valley means great deal to the

meet with the encouragement they
should receive. others will follow. IL
colonization proves success for
Ormsby county, other counties will
take il up and il won't be long before
Ncvaha's resources will Jc known to

tion now seeking other States will lie
turned this way.
There are large tracts OF well wat
cred, tillable land in nearly every
county i'll the State that could he cut
up into small farms and male to sup.
port much larger population than
we now have. AS the great need OF
the State liz more people to build
homes and cultivate her soil, the col
onization scheme seems to bc the
means by which people can be
brought here. 1t is at least worth
trying.

The interest centered in the new conpo-

They were about $50 in number-mag-
nificent, noble creatures.
The two finest among them were the
Kings of the troop and were called
Bill Prasad and Narain Gal prasad.

is to fetch and provide fodder for BILL

right well. At early dawn their ma
bouts, or drivers drive them into the
jungles and they work like real slaves.
They collect the sweet sugar canes,
tearing them up by their roots, the
young, succulent grasses and tender
leaves, and heap them up in masses.

These loads are put on their backs and

OF a soup plate These cakes he bakes
on the iron dish.
We were anxious to taste them, and
we found them very good. We punched
out with our fingers all the nice brown
spots and ate them piping hot. And
to make UP to Bill and Narain for taxi

pared a treat of which they are par
ticularly fond. From the bazaar we
had brought great balls of sugar cane
