scheme OF MID
WINTER FAIR

To revive The Days of Old, the
Days of Gold and the Days of Forty
Nine" is the proposal of Sam P.
Davis, of Carson City, New, made
to the California Exposition
company, in a letter in which he
asks for the acreage upon which to
construct replica of Yankee Bar,
Red Dog, Hangtown, Poverty Flat,
Yuba Dam and the old-time Cali
fornia mining camps.
Sam Davis is naught when he is
not unique. Contemporary of Bret
Harte and Mark Twain, humorist,
veteran journalist, politician, ranch
owner, known in every club and
newspaper Office in the world, he
is now having plans prepared for
enc of the most spectacular stunts
of his life. Davis proposes to have
gulch, a real placer diggin where
visitor to the exposition may wash
out a little gold dust of his own,
provided he knows how to operate
rocker and a pan. The vision of
some of the surviving Argonauts of
the forties returning to the gravel
banks of half century ago, is
interesting, to say the least. Other
features Sam proposes are a dance
hall, real old-time shooting up af-
fray, faro banks, roulette wheels,
everything in full blast just as it
was in the days when men washed
fortunes out of the sand bars OF
the Feather and American rivers in
the daytime and spent them on the

this additional land belongs to the

One of the interesting things on the
Truckee-Carson project has been the
planting of considerable acreage in
fruit. orticulturists predict that the
Truckee-Carson section is going to
be a second Yakima valley. Some
of the trees which We're planted
when the project was first opened
in 1905, are now in bearing and the
fruit is of excellent color, fine flavor
and perfect shape Apples, pears
and cherries are the principal vari-
cites Of trees planted There are

also Q few peaches. The apple crop
is especially promising.
This is the first year of sugar
beets in the Truckee-Carson section.
The sugar factory has just been
completed at a cost OF 100000, and
several thousands acres were plant
ed in beets this year An interest
ing feature on this project has been
the successful farming of the Indians
on their allotted lands. For the first
time they have been induced TO
plant alfalfa and their crops this
year were good.
