Why the People
of Nevada Should
Be Thankful

The following summary of the re-
sources of Nevada will be of much
interest to those who wish to keep
in touch with the progress of the
state:
Eighty-three per cent of Nevada
farms are free from debt. No 9TH
er state can approximate the i'm
munity from heavy interest burdens.
With $4,000, ,000Ydeposited in
state and national banks, or a per
capita wealth of over 81 .95 for every
man, woman and child ,Fpovertyyis a
negligible factor: It is all the more
remarkable that the leading farm
ing counties have the largest de-
posits. Elko banks report deposits
aggregating $2,067, 166; Winnemuc-
ca, Lovelock and Quinn River banks
hold for depositors something over
81 1872, 800, Churchill county, on the
Truckee-Carson project, has on hand
1926, ,233.43 at a,time when ranchers
are still waiting for returns from
their crops. The banks of Douglas
county are carrying deposits aggre-
eating $685., ,9S02S. These reports
do not reflect any hardship. This
does not include the millions dis
tributed by mining companies to
nonresident stockholders. The
gold and silver production of Ne
vada, according to the last United
States census, $27S. IA ser capita, or
225 per cent greater than that of
thr next nearest mineral producing
state. The output of gold, silver,
lead, copper and zinc last year from
Nevada mines was valued at $34,-
600, 900.
So good for the money extracted
from underground. Let US take a
view of the surface which is thou
sand times more interesting and
profitable. Here there is no ex-
haustion. Acreage increases and
crops multiply constantly. Last
year farm products aggregated &c.
100000, not counting sales of wool
valued at Sl,350,O00. On Nevada
farms January |, 1912, there were
hogs representing $l,969,0 and
the hog industry is only in its in
fancy; sheep many of them
of the purest strains, worth $5,4S7,-
900 and cows and other cattle valued
at $l2, 2,l97, 900.
At the California State Fair at
Sacramento, held in September, 1912
the winnings of the exhibit by the
Nevada agricultural college totaled.
8 firsts, IA seconds, II thirds, and
l3 championships. At the same
The Record-courier. [volume] (Gardnerville, Nev.) 1904-current, 1912-11-29

fair last year Nevada won the prize
for the largest exhibit by state
institution.
In wheat Nevada leads with 32.5
bushels per acre for spring planting
of farm price of 95 cents bushel,
making $30.87A per1acre. Winter
wheat yielded % bushels, or 21.8O
per acre.
Montana, the nearest competitor
is credited with 31.7 bushels, but
with farm valuation of II cents a
bushel. the crop was worth only
$23.87 an 'acre. Idaho produced
Bis bushels, but as the market
price was but &C cents, the producer
received only $20.79 per acre.
In barley, Nevada leads with 40
bushels to the acre, with a farm
value of 81 cents, netting $32. 100 per
acre. Utah and Idaho are the only
two states which have a greater
yield per acre, but the crop value
was more than offset by the differ
ences in prices on the farm. The
Utah farmer received &c cents a
bushel, or $2S.38 per acre, and the
Idaho farmer who harvested AZ
bushels, received 80 cents, or at the
rate of $29.40 per acre.
In oats Nevada again claims the
trophy for she was only excelled by
Montana with a production of 1913
bushels, valued ct 40 cents, or $19.-
92 per acre, while the Nevada yield
was As bushels or at the rate of
1920 per acre.
Alfalfa is the uncrowned king of
the farm when it come to compar-
ing Nevada with states. Nevada
raises $40 tons per acre of an aver
age value of $3.50 per ton, or $32 30
per Facre. The Montana farmer
is content with 500 per acre and the
colorado farmer thinks he is lucky
he stacks US at the rate of $3.50 per
acre. Utah harvests $3.50, Idaho
$23.56, and California $19.07 per
acre from alfalfa. These fignres
mean much to the stockgrower and
lamb finisher, as it is also conceded
that there is more nutrition in Ne
vada hay than that of other states.
For feeding it brings results to the
bank. @
Authentic reports of hogs raised
on nothing but alfalfa show that
they realized 81 cents pound at the
age of II months, equivalent to SIS
ton hay. In Moapa Valley, in
Southern Nevada, there is a record
of IL to ID tons from six cuttings
which extended over 10 months of
the year.
