Potatoes Shipments Push Rail Requests and Local Notes
George W. Friedhoff led a petition from the Walker River Producers Association in Reno urging Southern Pacific to provide cars for potato shipments. The group has moved 155 carloads and still needs 350 to 400 cars, seeking better transport and market access. Last Tuesday Hope Lode and Naomi Chapter installed officers, with a banquet at Brooks Cottage and a portrait gift. Nevada Consolidated’s W C Orem returned home after reviewing Lyon County interests. Also noted: Texas crops, international war talk, and a Briand cabinet in France as background political color.
