tention and hopes for the future
in the direction o. the agricul-
tural industries o than eve
before, and the time has at last
come when the agricultural in
d~ustries of the Silver State are
to see the marked development
that natural conditions and
human opportunities make pos
sible, says the Orchard and
Farm.
Heretofore Nevada has al
ways suggested to the outside
world the mines and wonderful
mountain ranges. That it had
extensive stock ranges many
knew in a vague way, but only
in the minds of a wise few has
the soil been taken into particu-
lar account in conceptions of the
future. The appelation Sage
brush State has had much force
in disseminating the idea of gen
eral sterility.
Now the federal government
has begun in Nevada the execu-
ton of one of its earliest great
irrigation projects, and the
striking enterprise commands
the attention of the country to
the vast agricultural possibilities
of an arid region of large extent,
hoored with rich soils and pos
sessing a favorable climate, and
which needs but water to yield
abundant harvests. Then in the
southern portion of the State, a
transcontinental railroad is be-
ing built which will open up a
rich and heretofore inaccessible
region and which possesses arid
valleys that have the soils and
climate potent with the semi
tropical glories of the best parts
of the great southwest, when
water is supplied.
Little that is necessary to the
upbuilding of a great State was
omitted when Nevada was ere
ated. The raw materials were
aRhndantly bestowed, and only
tsshe lack of human endeavor has
k~prevented this rich and extensive
region from taking a high place
among her sisters. Far from
being an ash-heap. with streaks
of silver through it, as so many
have been led to believe, the ter
ritory within her borders has
someNof the richest soil upon the
globe. and where it can be
reached by an adequate water
supply the crops are never
failing, the quality the finest.
and the yield tar greater than in
the rainy states.
Nevada is the fourth in extent
of the Union, only Texas, Cali
fornia and Montana being lar
ger. She has nearly II, 000 900
acres, of which perhaps seventy
five per cent would be tillable if
water could be provided.
The fact is gradually dawning
upon us that the desert is rich.
We recall the fact that the
ancient civilizations occupied the
deserts of the old world-Egypt,
Asia Minor. Syria. the classic
