Nevada Turning to Farming.
rom the San Francisco Call.

From the San Francisco Call.
Nevada is beginning to find herself, not
only in a mining way, but likewise in an
agricultural way. The late census bull
letin shows a 1874 per cent Increase of
population in the past decade. which is
more than four times as great as the
average for all states of the Union. Prior
to 1900 the state of Nevada had been
showing a downward trend in popula-
ton ratios, so that the condition set
forth in the census of 1910 marks a
radical and, we believe. Significant
change, which means a greatly acceler-
ated progress.
Nevada is a state Of marvellous unde-
veloped resources. 1t is region of great
discoveries some of them verified and
some in the experimental stage. The re-
markable record of the big Goldfeld
mines in the last half dozen years is the
wonder of the world. Tonopah keeps
pace as a big producer and the recru-
descence Of the Comstock gives great
promise and has already resumed pay
ment of dividends.
So much for mining. and now the agrl-
cultural interests are beginning TO make
themselves felt The country about Reno
has been converted into delightful gar
den spot, and the big Truckee-Carson
irrigation project of the reclamation
service promises an enormous produce
tive capacity. as may be inferred from
the fact that Observation-Disclosures
dollar beet sugar manufacturing pant
has recently been installed at Fallon.
