DIXIE VALLEY POTASH DEPOSITS
Railroad Valley Company Now ExPlor-
ing for Salts In New District

CIV ExposItor: An immense deposit
Of potash has been discovered in Dixie
valley. situated about 50 miles east OF
FaIon and so miles south from Love
lock The deposit has been secured by
the Railroad Valley Company which
has been searching for the salts in Rail-
road valley ZEAL Duckwster, for some
months. E. L. Fletcher is in charge
of the work in Dixie valley. where the
company recently started drilling in an
old lake bed similar to the u where .
hole was put down in Railroad Valley.
The discovery in Dixie valley is re-
ported to surpass the a made some
time age at SeArles, San Bernardino
County, California. and to prove the
theory formed with regard to Railroad
valley. The Dixie valley find has
boosted the shares of the Railroad Val
lev Company to par. A short time ago
the company was offering a large block
at 50 cents q share to raise q fund to
continue exploration work in search for
potash salts. The agents of the COM
pany have been quietly getting titles to
the lands in Dixie valley and the fact
that potash had been found there be-
yond q doubt was kept secret.
In Railroad valley. pending the con.
illusions reached by Expert Free. who Is
making an exhaustive study Of the geol.
ogy Of the valley, the company has sus-
pended the search for potash aud is de-
veloping water for irrigation instead.
The first hole for irrigation. and the
second to be put down by the company
in the valley has reached a depth ol
800 feet and tapped water. The large
flow that is expected to be tapped will be
looked for betweed 500 and 600 feet. and
If it is as large as that struck in the
other hole will be sufficient to irrigate
200 acres OF land. The company expects
to develop sufficient water in a number
Of holes TO irrigate nearly $4,000 acres Of
Hand that will be thrown open for set
tlement beginning about the first o
