WILL EXTEND TO BULLFRoG.
Directors Have Decided to Build Line
to the Famous Mines.
/cz- E----- D.II

AO
John w. Brock, president of the To-
nopah railroad, arrived this morning
from Tonopah and is at the Palace
hotel. Mr.. Brock is accompanied by J.
H. Miller, G. A. Hughes, c. A. Daniel,
w. Henshaw and T. A. Keith, who are
owners of the road and residents of
Philadelphia.
In an interview Mr.. Brock said:
cit is some years since the Eastern
owners have seen their property, and
they thought that it would be a good
idea to come out and see for them
selves what they have out here. 1t
Is needless for me to say that they are
well pleased and that they have sucn
faith in the country that they are will
ing to extend the road.
"The truth is that the Tonopah
road will be extended to Bullfrog, AMI
this has been determined on after the
visit of the owners / have advocated
the building of the road for some time.
1t is, however, not an easy matter to
build a line. There is such an extra
ordinary demand for rails and all
kinds of railroad material that it is
almost impossible to get an order filed.
We intend to put in our order for rail-
road material as soon as possible. If
we had all the railroad material piled
up at Goldfeld the extension of the
line to Bullfrog would take little time
to build. At any rate, we expect to
have the line completed by the sum-
mer. 1t will require a little over sev-
enty-fve miles of rail and some of the
country has an easy grade, and we
do not anticipate any great difficulties
in building the line"

ends of this company. 1t is upon the
facts which we here present that we
base our conviction of the rapid and
permanent growth of the state.
We are cautioned not to judge from
appearances. But the wife and mother
certainly the girls and boys who
think of coming to this western coun-
try, will want to know how it looks.
For the average man who must earn
a living for the family, scenery does
not count. He wants to know what
the soil will produce, and what a quar-
ter section of it is worth, but to the
woman who is to stay by the home
and beautify it, however humble, by
little adornments within, and a few
flowers without, how the country looks
will be the first question.
Nevada is not attractive to the eye.
1t looks forbidding to those accus-
toned to summer showers, where grass
covers every inch of soil, or forests
weave their verdure over the hilltops.
Here there are but few trees. The low
hills and u~ncultivated plains are COW
Tered by the gray sagebrush, and this
humble, fragrant "dusty miller" look
ing shrub helps to give the color kew
to the landscape. 1t is gray. There -
much volcanic ash and the appearance
of a desert.
But Nevada has a fascination of its
own which is hard to analyze. The
writer of these paragraphs made his
first home in the Silver state, and is
familiar with it's gray hills and plains,
but after many years the memory of it
is full of sunshine. After thirty years
/ bark back to the clear skies, the gen.
ial climate, the pale gray key of the
landscape of Nevada. 1t is a land
apart, unique in its appearance, and l
can testify to an interest in it which
am at a loss to define. They have a
saying in Nevada that "one who has
once lived in it can never die unless he
returns to it," and the saying has a.
deep root in the country itself. It's
freedom, it's larger life, it's indepen-
dence may help to explain the f%ascina-
ton, but it is certain that having lived
here a few years one is rarely inclined
to return to the older communities.
The general surface is table land,
high enough to have a fine invigorat-
ing air as of mountain regions, but
without the cold winters of the east,
the billiards. of the northwest or even
the SHOWS of the higher attitudes of
the west.
1t is traversed by low ranges of
mountains seldom rugged, the valleys
between varying from five to twenty
miles in width. These are traversed
by numerous rivers, the Truckee, Car
son, Walker, Humboldt, Owyhee and
others, and these valleys, with their
wealth of water, constitute the chief
agricultural resources of the state.
There are several lakes of considerable
size, and these receive the waters of
the principal rivers. AS they have no
outlet to the sea, their level is main
tanned by evaporation, a fact which
suggests the extreme dryness of the air
and means of comfort at once for the
man in the fields in summer, and for
the invalid in the house.

Schwab-McKane Plant at Susan Bay
to Have Increased Capacity.

John McKane returned from an ex-
tended Eastern trip on Thursday
night, and though an extremely busy
man, spared sufficient time to give a
representative Of the Miner some in
formation as to his and Mr.. Schwab's
plans for the future. In speaking of
their mining operations, Mr.. McKane
said:
eve shall continue the same aggres-
sive policy of development of all ou-
properties as heretofore, whether in
Tonopah, Goldfeld, Bullfrog or any
orther part of Nevada. We have spent
a large amount of money in Nevada,
have stood by the state, and hope the
people of Nevada will stand by us.
GAS to our properties in Tonopah,
the Extension is loking better THAI
ever, and the development of the Red
Rock, McKane and Golden Anchor is
progressing in a satisfactory manner.
Work on the Midway Extension will
be commenced shortly.
"I have always believed that if a
company owns a mine it should also
own it's own reduction plant, and in
the case of a smelter, its own fuxin5
ores. As a step in this direction we
have purchased the Pacific Coast
Shelter at Susan Bay, a comparative
" new plant which has been little
used, but it requires some slight
notifications, now being planned by
Mr.. Gillies, the general manager, n
when these are completed the Tonopah
Extension output will be shipped and
treated there, using copper ores as a
fux. 1t is difficult to say when the
smelter will be in operation, but 1T will
be blown in as soon as possible. It's
capacity for Tonopah ore will be about
12O tons a day, and this smelter may
form the basis for more extensive oper-
ations. As to fuxing ores, | have
spent thousands of dollars in the past
three years looking for these and still
have some properties under considera-
ton.
"Mr. Schwab and I both consider
the present railroad rates to smelling
points too high, and if we can secure a
reduction of these it will benefit the
whole camp
Mr.. McKane's operations at Gold
field are now mainly confined to the
Highland group, from which a pipe
line is being run to supply water 20
Goldfeld and Columbia. When this is
completed work at the mine will be re-
sumed.
Mr.. McKane spoke most hopefully
of the Bullfrog country, and of the
Crystal-B ullfrog and Great Eastern
properties, which he is now develop
ing, and also the Cactus Peak prop
erty, on which the final payment of
$4,000, the balance of the purchase
money, was made by him on the goth
inst, and where some high grade gold
and silver ore has been developed. Mr..
McKane will make Tonopah his head
quarters for some time to attend to
his interests in this section.

The "Great Bonanza" State is be-
coming a land of the farmer. New min
ing interests, indeed, are here that
promise to eclipse the glory of the
old, but the permanent foundation that
is being laid for the New Nevada is
agriculture. Always the permanent
growth of cities, of manufactures and
Of rests back upon the land.
When the country fills up with farm
ers and the homes of farmers; when
fields and orchards begin to yield sup
port for the population, then the
prosperity of towns and cities is as
sured. But in Nevada the extension of
the farming interests waited upon the
coming of an irrigation age" 1t
was useless to multiply small farms
until water could be had to insure the
growth Of crops, and this in turn wait
ed for government action. Convic-
tions about the value of our arid lands
had to grow; the wisdom of artificial
irrigation had to make its way; the
lessons of experience had to be
conned; the Anglo-Saxon had to un-
learn SOM prejudices against ~cloudless
skies and scanty rainfall. We were
accustomed to depend upon the bounty
Of the clouds; all of our systems Of
laws, our customs and our traditions
were based upon an ample rain fail,
and had to do with the drainage
rather than irrigation. We were not
used to dry and elevated plateaus, but
to the valleys, to the prairies, to thu
rolling country Of the middle west,
and the hills of Ohio, Pennsylvania and
New England. The habits and Gus
toms of a people are not changed in a
day or a decade. 1t takes time. And
when little by little, through long
years, the value of irrigation has made
its way into our convictions, and the
general government was ready to take
up the problem of supplying the water
for the arid lands, a new era was az
hand.
The American has vigor and adaps.
ability; he knows a good thing when
he sees it, and he is quick to act, and
today Nevada is taking on new life.
The wonderful mining developments
unite in point of time with the dig
ging of great canals and the taking up
of irrigable tracts, and every branc;l
of industry and achievement is feel
ing the pulse of new life. Soon great
areas Of wild land will be converted
into diversified farms and orchards Of
fine fruit, and the plains and valleys
of Nevada will be the homes of thous-
ands of prosperous and enterprising
farmers.
This little book aims to attract your
attention to this new aspect of the oil
Nevada. You will be a little skeptical
may be, about this being a. farmers
land, but the government is not.
1t is the policy of the Southern Pa
cifc to encourage state development
by presenting it's resources, and the
facts about Nevada soil and climate,
it's waters for irrigation and it's mar
kets will make their way. There is no
wisdom in deception. Exaggerated
statements react. Misrepresentation
leads to disappointment and loss, and
could not in the highest way serve the

Money begets money and no other
form of investment begets it in such
goodly quantities as mining, but the
same as it takes time to establish a
paying business, cultivate a crop, fat
ten stock, etc., it takes time to
thoroughly develop a mine and place it
in the productive stage, therefore
don't become impatient at not receiv-
ing a dividend tomorrow.
