In covering the 321 miles between Ely and here today I decided there was a great opportunity for a couple of good real estate men I never saw so many vacant building lots in my life And the principal towns are 100 miles apart!

I was particularly interested in Fallon on account of the cantaloupes I received I don’t wonder they raise fine cantaloupe— it’s hot enough to raise bananas! The Carson river runs through Fallon and wherever they get water on the desert country everything grows so fast that they have to tie weights to the Toots The sec- tion between Fallon and Reno has plenty of water and is probably the finest agricultural part of the state ‘ Notes on the Cuff Department Just before leaving Ely I was In the coffee shop at the Jlotel per- sons claim the draft system is We are doing a lot of things lately that are not American By Ham Park Nevada looking off into space with my customary mournful expression when a waitress (Betty is the only name I know her by) asked me if I was in trouble and could she help me?
