CITY OWNS VALUABLE LAND.
Tract Of Blue Limestone and Cement
Owned by Webster City.

Special to Times Republican.
Webster City, April 11-:Webster City
has just awakened to the fact that she
owns a valuable tract of blue limestone
and cement rock. There are some
twenty odd acres in the piece and the
rock ranges from twelve to thirty feet
in depth. The land is part Of the
Kendall Young etsate and lies north of
the city This estate, valued at some
$25O,OO0, was left the city for the per-
manent up keep of the Kendall Young
library here.
Limestone and cement rock are very
valuable. Old residents of the city have
known OF this rock land for many years,
but not until now has the city awak-
ened to the real value of the piece. 1t
has been suggested that the CONNER
cial League take the matter in hand
and bring an expert here to erect ce-
ment mills and lime kilns and that the
enterprise be worked on royalty
to be used for advertising Iowa.

NEVADA R. R. COMMISSION
WINS ANOTHER VICTORY
Federal Judges Deny Injunction
Lumber Rates Lowered

This morning in the Federal Court
before Judges Morrow, Van Fleet
and harrington decision was hand
ed down that spells another victory
for the Nevada Railroad Commission
Some months ago the Nevada Rail
road Commission ordered a general
reduction on all lumber hauled from
Verdi to Tonopah and Goldheld over
the Southern Pacific and the Tono-
pah & Gold6eld railroads. The rail
roads resisted the order Of the Com
mission and applied for temporary
injunction against the Commits sion.
The injunction was granted with the
railroads furnishing a bond OF fifteen
thousand dollars each Since that
time the old rates have been paid on
all lumber hauled to the southern
camps by the consumers.
Yesterday the railroads. through
their attorneys, asked that the in
junction be made permanent and thus
restrain the Nevada Commission
from enforcing the reduction By a

OF ACRES ARE
NOW OPEN TO SETTLERS
IN NEVADA

The biennial report OF c. L. Deady
Surveyor General and State Land
Register, for 1909 10. has just been
issued, and IS an interesting docu-
ment on account OF the large amount
of information it gives pertaining to
The public lands OF the State, especi-
ally the agricultural, regarding which
it gives considerable valuable data
should draw greater attention to the
settlement OF lands for agricultural
purposes and dispel the belief that
The arid lands are fit only for the
raising or sagebrush, cactus and horn
toads Regarding the soil and its
production the report says:
The best arabic lands are the sage
brush lands. Sagebrush grows al
most everywhere, from the lowest
valleys to the mountain tops OF the
interior portions Of the state. The
quality OF the soil is indicated by the
size and thriftiness Of the sagebrush;
the larger, of course, indicating a rich
deep soil, containing more than an
ordinary amount OF moisture. A
short, dwarfed growth indicates a
thinner soil, with less moisture.
Where thrifty sagebrush grows, and
the natural moisture is sufficient,
grain can be grown without irrigation
and water can be found by digging,
al no great depth below the surface
"Greasewood brush indicates soil
to a greater or less de-
gree with alkali, and is often found
gowing thriitily where the ground is
covered and white with alkali
"Greasewood lands usually indicate
a deep, rich soil, and are productive
where there is moderate amount OF
alkali. All that is needed to make it
SO is a sufficient amount of moisture,
which, if not found to exist naturally,
must be supplied by irrigation, and a
a rule. it may be said that all sage
brush lands, to be productive, require
to be irrigated, thus producing all the
cereals, fruits and vegetables adapted
to this latitude east of the Rocky
Mountains, which can be raised in
Nevada in abundance and in superior
perfection.
The prevailing opinion that the
desert lands OF Nevada are produc-
tive OF nothing useful TO mankinl is
rapidly being discredted.

decision OF the Judges in banc, the
temporary injunction was dissolved
and the permanent injunction denied.
1t was further ordered that the rail-
road companies refund ON all ship
ments made since November 20th Of
last year. This is practically full
victory on all contentious claimed by
by the Railroad Commission
The railroad companies were rep
resented by Attorneys Levers and
Dnbrow. while Attorney General Ba
ker and Railroad Commissioner Bar
tine appeaed for the State.
The case is one wherein the Tono-
pah Lumber Company appealed TO
the Railroad commission Tor a re-
duction on freight rates on lumber
from Verdi to Tonopah The Com
cited the railroads before
them and after hearing both sides OF
the question made ruling reducing
the freight on dressed lumber from
Sl3 per thousand feet to So, and on
timbers from S13 to S.

NEVADA LANDS AND
WONDERFUL FERTILITY
Interesting Items From Land Office
Reports Made Public

!, The experience of twenty-five to
a greater area Of the public domain
OF Nevada is susceptible of cultiva-
!, ton than was first supposed. but that
such land possesses within itself
contant recuperative power lnstan-
ces are numerous where lands have
been cultivated for fifteen years and
! yet show no signs of deterioration.
and some farmers claim that their
lands have improved in productive
ness during that time, although no
artificial fertilizers have been applied
to them. This may be due, in part,
to the fact that such land contains
superabundance of silicas and alum
ina, and that through the process of
evaporation there are annually
brought to the surface a proportion
Of the salt, alkalies, nitrates and
phosphates that lie stored in mex
haustible deposits far below the sur
face and produce such conditions OF
the soil as to render il prolific of veg
citation.
The best evidence of this fact is
shown in the wonderful growth OF al
falfa, which crop, instead OF dimin-
ishing, seems to increase in abund-
ance year by year. The selection of
farm lands is now better understood,
as the light of experience has shown
where the earlier settlers were at
fault"
From the 70,O37,863 acres, the es-
timated area of the state, there re-
mains 56.474,6S8 acres of unsold gov
