HOW TO GET LOCATED HERE
People Living Abroad Must Come to
Fallon to Enjoy Rights to Locate
Our Lands.

This newspaper office is flooded
with inquiries from parties living at
distant points, asking for any infor-
nation that might be deemed of in
terest to intending homeseekers.
emphasizing the fact that the dis
semination of knowledge surround
ing our land has not been as general
as the demand for land. To indulge
will govern in the disposal of the
project lands from the second unite
of this irrigation system have been
published repeatedly by the local
papers. we may say that people may
register by coming here and making
a proper application, acknowledged
before a notary in Fallon and pre-
senting it in person to the authori-
ties in charge. Mr.. J. NJ Keener,
of the general land office is here on
the ground to receive these applica-
tions, which may be filed from this
time forward until the 18th of this
month, when the registration will
close. The land drawing will occur
on September 18th, and fortunate
ones will have prescribed periods in
which they may then appear here
before the United States land COM
mi on 70. Tftxr
make their formal filings.
In all cases the registrations for
drawing privileges must be accom-
panied by the first years water
charge, i. e., $500 per irrigable
area of the unit selected. As a mat
ter of fact there is no practicable
method open to the intending home
seeker, other than trip to this Sec
ton, for an inspection of the land
sought would be a business require
ment on most anyone's part.
The man, however, who registers
on the last day of the period name
ly September 10th, will have the
same opportunity for unit as the
earliest applicant, disproving the
old adage that to the early bird
must go the worm feast, for all ap-
plications will be handled in bulk
and the drawing, the manner of
which has not yet been determined
by Mr.. Keener, will accord every
one an equal chance for the piece of
our land that may be desired.
The project authorities and the
Churchill county chamber of COM
merce are both active agencies in
diffusing knowledge to people living
at distance regarding our registra-
tion and land drawing. Inquiries
thus addressed will quickly bring
the desired information. II there
are any who wish to come to the
land of perpetual sunshine, equable
temperatures and wholesome sur
roundings, where the soil will bring
a due reward for homebuilding eff
fort, he should lose no time in get
ting in proper touch with local con-
ditions.
The project population is going to
be added to by a considerable in
fiux; new people are certain to ben
eft roundly from enterprise and
enjoy the fruits of industry in far
greater proportion than those labor
ing in the more congested centers.
