ance

Fallon is to be made over into
butter and cheese production with
the largest distributing points in
the west. This has been the dream
of George Wingfield for a decade
and the announcement from him
during his visit here this week that
he is to actively undertake single
handed the financing of dairying
enterprise here within the next few
weeks is in fulfillment of his ambi-
tion. Constructive by nature this
valley holds incentive fer Mr.. Wing
field in many regf rds.
He set afoot the first dairying ef-
fort in this valley on an organized
scale and financed stock buying in
big way later building and equip
ping one of the finest creamery edi-
fees in the west. The revival of
dairying and the reopening of this
creamery and the enlargement of
its scope constitute one of the in
centives for Mr.. Wingfield's return
to Fallon as an active participant
In local business. He wants to in
troduce into this valley during the
year 1921 approximately 1000 head
of approved dairy stock and he
wants to help to secure a due recog-
milton for the soil products of this
project.
In fulfillment c. the dairying plan
d Iaidv Mr. NU;p1RolJsa ran.o
ger of his Churchill county affairs,
will leave within the near future
for the dairying sections of the
north central states where cows
will be bought to the number stated
and shipped direct to Fallon for sale
on easy terms TO the farmers of this
valley. In the meantime Mr.. Leidy
is preaching the doctrine of the
COW as the happy medium between
hay production and prosperity. He
has been holding meetings in the
several districts of the project and
reports enthusiasm wherever he has
gone. Farmers generally realize,
he said, the necessity of diversified
effort and now propose to engage
in both dairying and sugar beet
growing.
1t was Mr.. Leidy, who established
broadcast reputation for Lahon-
tan valley cantelcupes last season
and made them famous in every
part of the United States and ii Il
Mr.. Wingfeld's plan to ship several
cars of this delectable fruit out of
Fallon every day throughout the
harvesting season of this year. He
has already been assured ample
market In the east for all that can
be produced.
Another project entertained by
ming factory that would care for q
vast amount of acreage of succulent
garden products in the raising of
which thig valley excels in no un-
certain manner. Horticulture is al
so to be encouraged and he pro-
poses to send these forms of farm
products to outside markets canned
and labeled in a manner that will
make the Newlands project far
famed No one understands better
than Mr. Wingfleld the problems
that are incident to desert farm land
development, nor is any one pos
sessed of . broader understanding of
the certitudo CT eventual greatness
for this vast agricultural area
which is destined TO blossom as the
rose and green bay tree. He knows
that intelligent, intensive and di-
versified farming effort ig to make
this into one of the great, thickly
settled agricultural communities of
the United States and his decision
to become an active leaven in this
process must be welcomed by every
project resident familiar with local
needs.
