Crops Are Improved,

The fine weather for the past ten days has made a wonderful improvement in the condition of the crops The cotton is exceedingly small for this season Of the year. but is now looking well and growing rapidly. The stand Is worse than ever known. and in many places in the county owing to the bad stands the cotton was plowed up and corn planted. This has to some extent reduced the acreage. Corn Is looking well and there will be more raised than for a number of years.

FROM DAGGETT ON THE SOUTH
TO TON0PAH ON THE NORTH
Grand Section OF Country Which the New
Proposed Railroad Will Open Up.

The road then runs north through
the Ralston valley till Klondyke well
is reached, leaving Silver Peak to
the west about twenty miles. The
Montezuma district is close to the
road, and on the completion of the
latter, it will become one of the
most prominent shippers in the
state. Only few miles to the west
are the Paymaster, Esperanza and
other promising properties. Contin-
uing, the survey passes between
Lone and Gold mountains and follows
the fiat south of town till Tonopah IS
reached.
The whole country through which
the survey passes possesses wonder
ful resources, and within the next
few years will become one Of the most
prosperous sections Of the west. Its
principal need is means of trans
portation for handling its produc-
tions, and from present appearances
the time is not far distant when the
railroad will have entered into and
opened up its treasure businesses.
