Frost and drought hit crops with scattered gains reported

Drought lingered in southern, eastern, and western regions prompting irrigation use. some nights froze barley and fruit, with wind and cool spells reducing conditions in parts of Nevada and nearby locales. The Ideal Stamp Mill project advances with a new mill move to Yerington and Globe Iron Works mill near Stockton. local trade notes include Chamberlain’s Pain Balm praise and Reno hardware firms promoting stoves and ranges.
