There are "Reasons Why

there will never come a time when residence lots in Elko may be bought for less money than
now. The (lay is in sijjlit when improved property here will pay interest upon three times
present values.
Outside forces have predetermined the future of Hlko. The National Government; the
necessities of competitive transportation companies; increasing demand for gold, and the un
challenged march of civilization westward, already have Nevada in their grasp forcing pros
perity upon the State.
Elko, the largest town in eastern Nevada, liinsl share this prosperity.
You will make, and you will save, money, if you buy Hlko lots now. Buy right. The
Hlko of the future will not be on low ground. Come up out of the wind and dust into the
sunshine of the hill.
Just now we offer special advantages to home-builders.

among the farmers of this valley who
liavo produce to noil foi shipment to
outside points, It in claimed that the
railroad company ban nil kinds of prices
for all kinds of people. For instance,
shippers of spuds to Tonnpah get a rate
of ?11 per ton frous Wnbunloi, while the
producer, if he wnntq to ship a carlond
on his own nccount, in charged ?11 per
