Excerpt from The History of Nevada, Vol. 2: Illustrated
We can hardly state that Nevada has had a large share in the raising of horticultural products on a commercial scale up to the present time. As a consumer, however, her nearest neighbor on the west has benefited very materially from the large quantities of fruits, and particularly small fruits, shipped in and well paid for by Nevada's generous purchasers and good livers.
That she has not reached the limit of her possibilities for fruit-growing is very certain, and much progress is being made along horticultural lines. The early settlers with the gold fever excitement could not be expected to have the temperament necessary for the careful planting, pruning and cultivating of trees. Then again they found the native grass growing abundantly everywhere and with it made money easily, so why risk the unknown and untried. But as in all aggregations of people there were a few with the experimental or investigational type of mind and it is to these that we must look for the beginnings of things in a horticultural way.
