Aforementioned DEVELOPMENT 10 nevada.

The agricultural development of
Nevada is but beginning. Her
grains and apples long ago took first
prizes at great expositions, and her
potatoes and butter have never
failed to bring prices in advance of
the market rate in San Francisco
and other coast cities. Yet fruit
culture with one or two exceptions
is not attempted. To be sure, there
are hundreds of small apple, pear
and plum orchards, but they care
for themselves, and neglected as
they are, bring forth fruits of ex-
cellent soundness, color and flavor.
The area devoted to potatoes, which
Is in the Reno valley and the valley
above Dayton on the Carson River
often give returns of $3.50 an acre, is
comparatively insignificant. The
sugar beet, which is considered an
ideal crop under irrigation, is not
grown, although test crops show
the Nevada valleys to be unusually
well adapted to its culture. There
are only a few creameries in opera
ton, but their product is of such
value that, even after long ship
ments by team and rail, handsome
profits result to the dairymen.-A.

February.

ley a couple of weeks ago, have

STARTLING But True.

People the world over were horri-
fed on learning of the burning of
Chicago theater in which nearly six
hundred people lost their lives, yet
more than FIVE times this number or

with scarcely q passing notice.
Every one of these cases of pneumo-
MIA resulted from a cold and could
have been prevented by the timely
use of Chamberlain Cough Rem
edy. A great many who have rea-

edy. The following is an instance
