Frank Buol farmer of the Pah-
rump, brought the news of the new
crop to Las Vegas this week.
The Pahrump valley, which is
the other side of the two-mile-high
Charleston peak, and just a few
miles west of the Clark county line.
promises to be as big a farming
community as Las Vegas valley. Ar
tesian wells have been secured, al
though not in such volume of water
as around Las Vegas, the largest well
being under so inches, according to
Buol.
The Pahrump ranch has been
farmed for many years, but has been
allowed to drift more or less with no
strict management for money max
ing purposes. The announcement of
the cotton culture indicates that the
Shoup-Dockweiler company plans to
make the ranch a better paying prop
osition
While cotton has been grown in
Las Vegas valley and it makes a fine
growth, none has been planted on a
commercial scale. Many samples of
cotton grown have been brought to
the local Chamer of Commerce at
various times.
With cotton at 20 cents and the
southern growers reaping huge prof
it's from the high prices, the cotton
crops should be profitable, and it is
probably this fact that has influenced
the Pahrump people to plan the new
crop.-Clark Co. Review

STATE AUDITOR COLE
FILES annual REPORT

1t cost each person in Nevada on
an estimated population of 1O9.736,
1854 to run the state government
during 1916. according to the report
of State Controller Geo. A. Cole. his
annual report having been recently
issued.
This sum was divided as follows:
Educational, $405; charitable and
penal institutions, $3.50; commits
sions and board, 43 cents: miscel-
laneous departments, s192.
Figuring on the same population.
the receipts per capita during the
past year were $11.95, of which ST.
56 was secured through taxes and 90
cents in licensees.
The balance on hand in the state
treasury January l, 1916, was $276-
00O.02. On December 81 the balance
was $515, 457,02. During the year
the receipts amounted to $1.S14,545,-
50 and the disbursements to $1,575,
| 0S8.95. OF. the expenditures $264,-
$3.50 was spent on maintaining the
public schools and S163, 6073S at
the university. The expenses of the
state prison was $73,50966; the Ne
vada state insane aylum, S5S.517,-
OS; Nevada School of Industry, SILL
RIO SO and thn 20
! 1875. Interest on bonds amounted
to $4,000.
1t is the first time in the history of
the state that a controllers report
has been ready for delivery to the
members of the legislature on the
first day of the session.
The report covers a wide ground
and contains mass of figures and
statistical data of considerable in
terest. Among other things it shows
that while there was a debit balance
on the books of the state January /,
1916, of $49,054.91, yet on January
|, 1917, there was a credit balance
of 2,744.51. Controller Cole says
that this reversal of form is due prin-
cipally to two things: the increase
in valuations by the state tax COM
mission and the increase in the net
proceeds of mines which necessarily
increased the taxes derived from that
source of state revenue. The net pro
ceeds of mines in Nevada in 1916
amounted to $14,S60,569 according
to the controllers report, being the
largest in the history of the state
since 1873 when the great mines OF
the Comstock were harvesting theil
crop of millionares.
1t also is shown in the report thai
the tax for the assessment roll o.
1916, 46.3 cents, is the lowest in the
history of the state. The state rate
on the assessment rolls of 1S79-'8(
was 5 cents and up to last year i
was the lowest on record.
