and the rainfall slight. These are
conditions which may easily be ex-
aggerated, leaving upon the mind the
impression Of great poverty of agri-
cultural resources. The average
traveller crossing the state for the
first time thinks of Nevada as a re-
gion largely barren and worthless
for farms. But this is not the case,
and IL the traveller will turn aside
and look for green fields, for square
miles of alfalfa, for leagues of natu-
raj grass, for herds of fat cattle, and
for gardens and orchards, he will
find them. If he will stoop down and
examine the soil of wide areas called
desert" he will find It rich In the ele-
ments of plant life. The very char
acter OF the sagebrush will hint the
quality of the soil beneath.
Nor is the country impossibly dry.
Nevada has rivers and streams,
creeks, spring and underground
fountains, and is generally well
watered There are four rivers of
considerable size. IL more which may
be called important, and IL others
which are Of considerable conse-
quence. In the southern counties
artesian wells are adding copiously
to the supply of rivers and springs.

Is dry (as to rainfalD that is not also

full. 1t does not follow because all of
Nevada's rivers do not run into the
sea that crops will not grow; that be.
cause the region is basin It 10 a
vast bed Of chemical salts, and there.
fore barren. II does not follow be-
cause there are wide stretches of des-
ert that the soil is not rich over other
wide areas, or that the desert Itself
cannot literally be made to blossom
with profitable crops. After the des.
ert comes the garden, and comes in
Nevada as truly as in Egypt.
