the belief is that the White river
which sinks in White Pine county
has been intercepted on its subway
journey to the Colorado. Then there
are thousands and tens of thousands
of acres of the finest kinds of land
in Nevada that are underlayed at no
great depth with water which can be
easily pumped and the modern pump
for farm and garden use is cheaper
than a windmill
The products of the soil of Nevada
cannot be excelled. The claim is
made that their sugar lands yield
from twe1vV to fifteen tons per acre,
that Nevada butter commands a
premium in San Francisco and that
nowhere around this big world can
better celery be raised than in Ne
vada.

mining state for five and fifty years

state is soon to be as famous for

Judge c. c. Goodwin always has a
good word to say of Nevada. He
knew the state when it was only a
mining camp. His recent visit to the
scenes of his youth in and about Car

tribute to Nevada Farming, published
in Goodwin S Weekly:
"Nevada is fast becoming a good
deal of an agricultural state. That
row of valleys at the foot of the ST.
erras-Truckee, Steamboat, Pleasant,
Eagle and Carson val1eys-are fine as
Salt Lake valley from Ogden to
Provo. Humboldt valley is fast be-
coming a garden and north and south
of the Humboldt valley are dozen
great valleys, enough to make the
ordinary eastern state, which are
splendid in productions. Then in the
south, the people believe they will
eventually intercept all the waters
that sink in the northern portion of
the state and the result at Moapa
give strength to the claim. At Moapa

that Sears, Rocbuck & Co. did a total
business OF $S.464713 during the
