'Hia old saving that gold is
where you find it has received
fresh proof by the opening of a
new gold mining region on the
shores of Lake Mead in Nevada.
If you don’t recognize Lake Mead
by riame, it is the great new arti
ficial reservoir in Boulder Canyon,
created by the building of the
Hoover Dam.
The gold has been there always,
but nobody could get to it until
the water impounded by the dam
rose high enough so that boats
could reach the previously inac
cessible slopes of the steep moun
tains bordering the canyon. Now
a real “gold rush” has started,
since a prospector in a motor-
boat discovered a promising vein
of gold-bearing rock a year or so
ago.
The new “strike” is known as
the Gold Butte Mining District, 53
miles up Lake Mead from the dam.
High grade ore is being shipped
by barges towed by motor-boats,
"nd is said to yield from $6 to $10
to the ton.
There is always something fas
cinating about news of a new gold
strike. This one is especially in
teresting because it initiates a new
way of making gold accessible. It
is novel as the methods now used
in the island of New Guiana,
where airplanes are used to bring
the gold down from the inaccessi
ble mountain peaks, as well as to
take machinery and miners up to
the mines.
The earth’s store of gold is, ap
parently, very far from being ex
hausted. Not enough has been
mined so far to satisfy the
monetary demands of the world,
which now almost universally re
gards gold as the only real money
for the exchange of commodities
between nations.
The United States Treasury
holds more than half of all the
world’s stock of monetary gold.
If the other nations were as well
supplied there would be better
assurance of peace and prosperity
for everyone.

yield on 284.2 acres of wheat on
which records were kept by grow
ers cooperating with the Exten
sion Service in 1937 was 19.4
bushels per acre, says M. C.
Rochester, farm management
specialist. This yield is more than
double the state average of 9.5
bushels per acre.
In 1937, 54 enterprise records in
16 counties were completed. These
records were analyzed in order to
determine the factors affecting
the yield 'and cost of production.
“The average cost per bushel”,
Mr. Rochester says, “amounted to
68.1 cents per bushel. To secure
this better yield and ecqnomical
cost of production, the records in
dicate, it is desirable to have large
fields, higher-than-average humus
in the soil, early planting dates
(wheat planted in November gave
the highest yield per acre), seed
treatment with ceresan, wheat
following the more highly fertil
ized crops such as corn or corn
and legumes, seeding with the
drill, the use of 1.1 to 1.5 bushels
of seed per acre, and freedom of
the crop from diseases and insects
“In order for wheat growing to
hold its place in the farm organ
ization of today and play its
proper part in a living-at-home
program, these economical meth
ods of production should be fol
lowed”. concludes the farm man
agement specialist.
