ity of the farmer or rancher and
wants "to be shown that he has
been laboring under delusion, all
that he has to do is to journey
TO the Reese River valley section
and he will not alone find the
genuine farmer hospitality, but the
most productive farms in acreage
in the whole state of Nevada While |
talking of production, | might say,
incidentally, the baby crop has not
been neglected in this fertile section.
Every household is blessed with |
from five to ten healthy offsprings, |
all happy, healthy children. be-
lieve this soil will produce any
thing desired to.
Owing to the fact that unusual
late rains have been the order of
the day for the past week, some
thing unheard of in this neck-o'-
the-woods, the entire valley popu-
lation for radius of eight miles
decided to have a day of carnival
and fun and so notified the deni-
zens of Camp Tonopah' that they
would arrive at Park Tonopah on
Sunday morning the 23rd day of
July at s p. m, Pacific time, so
strong, and everybody was to
'whoop- cr-up" for all day long.
Their program was carried out
to the letter, at precisely 1855 a.
m the procession of vehicles, autos
and cowboys and beautiful cow-girls
on prancing bronchos We're seen
coming down a lane that is lined
on both sides with beautiful cot
tonwood trees, the lane ending
Tonopah Park, which is virtually
an amphitheater with Gods blue
sky as canopy for the ceiling,
Newton Crumley and the writer
announced the coming of these
good Reese River people with sa-
lutes of cartridges from their guns
and only ceased firing when re-
minded by their better halves that
fagehens were plentiful and am.
munition limited
1t could be readily seen at &
glance that King JOY was tt
reign supreme for this one day Of
all days to the residents of the
valley, and truly it was a happy
day. Canvas had been provided
which was laid upon mothers greer
swarth, and to the music of Mr.
and Mrs. Mike Keough Thy the wa!

Austin 23 years ago and have jus
returned to visit Mr. and Mrs
George Keough and family -violiI
and guitar-the beautiful lassie
and there are many in the val
ley-and the lads whirled in tn,
dreamy waltZes and those laboriou
two-steps, the married couples fount
enjoyment in the old-fashione,
quadrille, to the tune of "Old Dal
Tucker. Too bad Billy Douglas
Jim McQuillan and Dan Robb wer
not here to enjoy the dance, a
quadrilles are the only dances the
can dance, Horse races and fan
cy roping occupied the attentio
of all for an hour in the after
noon.
At noon covers were laid upo
the grassy meadow, and such
feast, all eatables being fresh fror
the ranches seven miles below Cam
Tonopah. At p. m. the meado'
covers were again spread with lus
