The Board OF Aldermen will tonight

the fight promises to be Interesting to

mon Council last Friday night, and while
Il i Is no e. known exactly on what line

certainty that they will not agree to the
substitute and will exhaust all possible
means 80 secure some broader policy.

may desire them In territory not now
within the cltys limits.

This valley Is about 30 miles each

canal from the Carson river TO irrigate
about 100000 acres OF this land AZ
least cne-half Of this amount can be
taken up under the homestead act, the

soil IS good; some OF II IL heavy clay,
while other portions Is sandy loan.
There is but very little mineral In any
OF the land.
The water supply IN the Carson river
runs short In the latter part OF the
season, for that reason the government
has cut a long canal from the Truckee
river into the Carson river, so there VIII
be plenty OF water in the future.
There Is not any timber short Of 20
or 80 miles off, except cottonwood,
which is plentiful In the valley. Wood
cut into stove lengths sells at from 81
TO SO per cord. Coal costs about $lS per
ton. The average yield OF grain Is
about one ton per acre, and the average
yield OF hay per acre at each cutting Is
counted two tons. Alfalfa can be cut
three times per season with good care
but most people cut but twice and pas
