HISTORY OF HUMBOLDT COUNTY, NEVADA
Extracted from the History of Nevada, 1881. Thompson and West Publishers

THE HUMBOLDT HOUSE and grounds, though not in themselves remarkable, are quite so when the surrounding circumstances are considered. Perhaps no more desolate place than this was can be found in the State of Nevada. What it now is shows what the State might become with proper preservation and distribution of the winter rains. A stream of water of perhaps 100 inches miners’ measurement was brought in a ditch from a cañon some miles away, and turned upon the desert, irrigating or moistening about thirty acres. The results are 1,000 fruit and shade trees. Among the former are 500 peach, apple, pear, and apricot trees, which produce fruit equal to that of California or Oregon. The shade trees, consisting of locust, cottonwood, willow, pine, and oak, give an air of comfort and prosperity to the place, all the greater for the contrast with the surrounding sterility. Gooseberries, strawberries, currants, and blackberries, the lilac, rose and other flowering shrubs grow as if to the manor born, while eight acres of alfalfa, yielding several crops a year, and a garden of all kinds of vegetables, supply the physical wants of man and beast. What might Nevada be with a people as energetic as the author of this place?
