Agriculture and Stock-Raising in Custer County Prospects

Agriculture and stock-raising sustain Custer County alongside mining. Salmon River and tributaries irrigate thousands of acres of arable, largely uncultivated land. Irrigation will transform desert into valley, boosting hay, oats, wheat, and potatoes yields. Stock industry funds most county tax revenues, aided by mild winters and ample ranges. The county boasts timbered mountains, fertile soil, growing rails, schools, churches, and rich mineral wealth in gold and silver, copper and iron.

Alaska's Mineral Value and Prospects Highlight Growth

The Mint statistician notes Alaska's mineral output rose to 7,2002 dollars last year with gold and silver totaling 5,521,253. Growth from 1895 to last year reaches 5,257,985, driven by Cape Nome placer and Junesc quartz mines. Copper, coal, and new expeditions loom as a larger future supply. Cronje at St Helena will benefit from new submarine cable links to England and the Cape. Mexico City death rate near 44 per 1,000. drainage project may cut it by half.
