FINEST LAND

the irrigation project now cnder

SAYS he will return in the near

NEW ROAD WILL
NOT HIT FALLON
There Is Talk of Constructing a
Branch Line, However.

The present indications are
that another railroad is to be
built through Churchill county,
extending from Hazen to Wabus-
ka. The road is to be built and
operated by the Southern Pacific
and already that company has
force of engineers surveying
the proposed route. The main
line of the new road will not
touch Fallon, and this town
will be as far away from the
railroad as at present. 1t is
said, however, that a branch
line is to be constructed from
some point Oh the new road tc
conpect with Fallon.

TEN CENTS
CONTRACTORS
oARE SATISFIED

The writer visited the various
canal construction camps this
week and found each one q hive
of industry. Work OF excavat-
ing is going rapidly ahead and
there are scores of men and
teams are employed.
At the headquarters camp,
above Harriman's, a steam
shovel will be put at work the
coming week. This contract is
fast nearing completion and the
complement of men and teams
are being daily increased.
At Harris camp, across the
river from the headquarters
camp, the same condition pre-
walls and nverything is moving
satisfactorily. Mr.. Harris stat
es that he will move camp in
about a month to a point near
Fallou where he has another
sub contract.
Brooks & Baglan express
themselvcr as highly pleased
with their contract and say they
only wish it was a larger one.
And SO it is all along the line.
Not one of the contractors has
any complaint to offer or kicks
to register, as each says he is
tot losing any money on the job.
Each camp presents the ap-
pearance of lively little village
and the contractors and their
wives, as well as the men, are
comfortably quartered.

GOOD TIMES IN
STORE FOR
NEVADA.

The San Francisco contract
ors who are building for the
Federal Government the big
irrigation canal in Nevada an
nounce that, dnlesS the untor-
seen occurs, the work will be
completed before the end of the
month, says the Sacramento
Union. The canal is 80 miles
long, q feet wide at the bottom
90 feet wide at the top, IA feet
deep and will carry 13 feet OF
water or a volume of 400 cubic
feet second. 1t is to furnish
water for the irrigation of 800,
900 acres of land. The big ditch
starts from a point on the True
kee river, 30 miles east from
Reno, runs eastward IA miles
alongside of the Central Pacific
road, and thence southeastWard
Is miles.
The incident of the completion
of this work calls attention to
the good times in store for Calf
tornia's neighbor State. The
sagebrush lands of Nevada,
once water is gotten to them,
produce enormous crops.
In the Humbolt River Valley,
where large areas have already
been brought under irrigation,
a hundred bushels of wheat to
the acre. three crops of alfalfa a
year, are by no means exception
al cases. The land is admirably
adapted to the raising of vege-
tables, potatoes in particular
Welding abundantly and of fine
quality. The irriga ton of 800,
600 additional acres means a
great advance in the develop
ment of an exceptionally rich
State.
But the development of Neva-
da will not be Nevada's gain
alone California will share
largely in it. Even now Nevada
is good customer Of California
and particularly of the north
central part of the State, OF
" hich Sacramento is the com
mercial center. The addition of
5000 families to Nevada's popu-
lation cannot but increase this
trade. California and parricu-
larlv the northern half OF the
State, can well afford to rejoice
with Nevada over the good for
tune that has come to her.

Chester Epperson, well known

REAL ESTATE is
ON THE ADVANCE
Investors From Afar Pleased With
the Town and Country.

Fallon real estate is looking
up after a lull OF several weeks
The past few DAYS have wit
messed IN my strangers in town
whose mission Tor the most part
is to look over this section with
q view to investing.
1t is the general concensus OF
opinion among these strangers
that Fallon is desnmed 20 be
one of the leading agricultural
towns on the coast and they
stand ready to back their opin-
ions with heavy investments.
In one instance, a California
lady who has travelled quite eX-
tensively III search of a home for
herself and children, arrived in
IEalloD a few DAYS ago and is SO
favorably impressed with the tu-
ture of the town that she at
once opened negotiations with
John Oats for the purchase OF
an entire block OF land from him
on which to erect Il home. She
states that Fallon is just such a
place as she has been spending
considerable time and money to
find and that she is content to
settle here for the remainder of
her days.
This office is constantly re-
ceiving inquiries concerning Fal-
lon and the surrounding coun-
try from which it would appear
that this town is being looked
to as a field for profitable in
VeStment.
