day occurrence. The population At
present is estimated at about 1900
and before long this will be doubled.
Everything a be secured at reason

are excellent. On III way back we
visited the property of II. Fletcher
which is about six miles from Mil

in Winnemucca and elsewhere to
know that he is on the eve of reap
ing the reward for the confidence he
has shown in carrying on the deyei-
opment for many months, going down
into his own pockets for the money
necessary to carry on the work,
That Florence is to have a boom Is
beyond question OF doubt and that !,
is going to be i great thing in a
business way for Winnemucca is just
as certain.
Since lots in the Florence townsite
we're placed on sale, there has been
a brisk demand for them both locally
and from the outside. This Is thu
fo%rerunner of the boom which within
a few weeks will make Florence CAM
one of the liveliest in the state.
