MANY LOCATIONS FILED ON
NYE COUNTY SALT MARSH

The potash discoveries in Rail-
road valley has awakened gu lite a
bit of interest, in salt marshes in
Nevada. and before long probably
all these deposits will be pros
pected.
The reco rder's office has re-
ceived in tile last few day about
30 locations of this nature made
near Cirac. in this county. On the
locations appear the names of
some very prominent ,Goldfield
operators. While it is not stated
that these locations are potash it is
generally accepted that they are.
If commercial bodies of this
mineral are located in this county
it will add great wealth. to the
state.
Potash at present is controlled
by Germany. and as that country
has discouraged the expectation
of the mineral by putting an ex-
port tax on it, the United States
government is now encouraging
the finding Of it. and the geological
survey has already published a
statement saying that the salt
marshes in this state afford the
most likely place of discovering
the mineral. Potash il used in
fertilizing, manufacturing powder
and in numerous other necessities.

toned yesterday as beng in
Winnemucca was in Elko about
two weeks ago and looked over
this field with a view Of locating
a plant here, and before leaving
took an option on II lots in the
western part of town. 1t Is very
likly that the plant will be located
here as Elko is undou )tedly the
best distributing point for eastern
Nevada. In case the company
decides to locate here 1t will
mean the building of q large
corrugated iron warehouse, stable,
wagon sheds, pumphouse, and
three tanks Of capacity each of

ing gasoline, distillate and coal oil.
