SENATOR PITTMAN ON NEVADA
Saws States Potentialities Will
Support Great Population In
The Future

United StateS key Pitt
man. in speaking on the proposed
wool tariff bill in Congress August
q. thus eulogized his State:
Nevada is destined to be a great
AGRICULTURAL State. Within its bord-
ers are 70,2S5, 440 acres of land, 90
100000 acres of which are of the
most fertile soil, capable of raising
anything that may be raised in a
temperate or semitropical zone. The
State is divided into a system of val
levs by chains of mountain ranges
running north and south. These
valleys in the northern part of the
State have an average altitude of
about 5000 feet and gradually slope
towards the south until at places
they reach a point near sea level. The
distance from the northern part of
the State to the southern is approx
mately 300 miles and within this
range we find a variation of agri-
cultural products from wheat and
other grain and hay in the northern
and central parts of the State, to
fruits. melons, and vegetables in its
southern portions. | realize that in
the opinion of the great majority of
the people who have not visited our
State it is largely a barren waste.
81 will admit that but a few years
ago vast areas were considered by
our own people to be practically
worthless, by reason of the lack of
water, that to-day r raising mag
nifcent crops under the stimulus of
the water supply in the State from
streams and springs within its bor-
ders. but to-day we have under way
great governmental irrigation projects
that will bring under cultivation l.
232. 142 acres of that land which in
the past was referred to as barren
waste land. 1t has been discovered
that all our valleys are underlaid
with running water, in many instan-
ces but a few feet from the surface;
in fact, our great valleys are nov
known TO be but river channels, filled
with rich soil which has come down
from the mountains through the
ages. In addition to this water sup
ply. available artesian water has been
discovered in every portion of the
State, and there is every reason to
believe that land that is not subject
to irrigation by means of irrigation
projects and pumping wells will re-
ceive an ample supply of water from
artesian sources.
For the purpose of encouraging
the homesteading of this latter class
of land | have had the honor to in
troduce in this body a bill amending
the homesteaders on this land to be
permitted to reside off Of their home
steads until sufficient water can be
developed for domestic purposes.
Another bill has just been introduced
into the Senate by the senior Senator
from Idaho which provides that the
work of developing water on such
lands and fencing the same shall be
accepted In lieu of the requirements
that so much of the land be cult
waited each year. These acts will
greatly stimulate the homesteading
Of these lands, and in our State we
have between 10 and Is millions of
acres subject to homesteading under
such provisions"

Dripping Water Forms Power

So long as the water is allowed to
drip into the heated air the engine
will continue to run. When started
yesterday the pressure gauge showed
only the 80 pounds made by heating
the air plus the original Is pounds
furnished by the hand pump.
By the time the engine had at
tanned a speed of 400 revolutions a
minute the pressure gauge showed
60 pounds pressure, and the engine
continued to run as long as the
water was turned on. This extra 30
pounds pressure, the inventors claim,
could easily be raised or the surplus
power could be diverted by means of
a pulley and belt to drive a machine.
To maintain a steady heat in the
air chamber the engine will be fitted
with a magnetic on the fy-wheel
which will generate a current for a
rheostat coil under the air reservoir.
In yesterdays experiments an ordi-
nary gas jet flame furnished the
heat,

San Francisco, Sept. Con his
return from a "get-acquainted' trip
through Nevada, President William
Sproule of the Southern Pacific is
enthusiastic over the prosperous con
ditions and bright futurein store for
the Silver State. His trip covered
all the Southern Pacific lines, as
well as Tonopah, Goldfeld, Carson,
Susanville, California, and Ely.
Its cities, such as Reno, Winnie
mucca. Elko and Ely, are much alive
and up to date" says Sproule.

Mining Is Prosperous

There is more ore in sight in Ne
vada to-day than at any other time
in its history and more money is be-
ing made in the mining business
than ever before. The boom stage
is passed and the mining business in
a large way is on a solid foundation.
The great copper shelters of Mason
Valley and Steptoe Valley are in ac-
tive operation. The mills of Tono-
pah and Goldfeld aggregate prob
ably more ore than ever before. 1t
will be news to many that quicksilver
is produced in Nevada in commercial
quantity.

The trial motor, which was de-
signed to generate one-eighth of a
horsepower, drives a two horse-pow-
er air compressor and has power to
spare. The inventors claim that in
its perfected stage this surplus pow
er can be adapted to run every con-
ceivable mechanical device--automo-
biles, steamships, locomotives and
power plants of all descriptions.
The engine consists of an air heat
ing receptacle into which the air
compressor discharges at every
stroke. To start it the air chamber
is first pumped to a pressure of 10
pounds to the square inch. This
compressed air is then heated to a
temperature of 500 degrees, when
the water is admitted from the in
The water in dropping into
the heated compressed air, instantly
expands 247 times and forms a gas
which is led to the throttle of the
engine by a pipe supplied with a
valve. By opening this valve the
engine is started and drives the COM

Base hits from the American and
"Three-eycd" league.
Reports from Scouts Williams and
Jaeger say that several Of the minor
leagues are ripe for major league
company.
It's limited that several veterans
of the major league are slipping and
that their faces may again be seen

In fact, Dame Rumor says that
the scouts themselves, in order to
hold down their berths, IN despera-
ton are very daring and reckless on
the paths
Williams claims, however, that his
"fade-away" insures him for several
years in fast company.
During his brief period in the

said to be a disturbing element, and
now it is do or die" in the Ameri.
