Eagle Valley is nearly a circular basin and the town is located a little west of the center. Carson City is named after Kit Carson and the townsite was surveyed by Curry, Proctor, Green and Musser, after whom streets were named. It is the county seat of Ormsby County, as well as the capital of the state, and is on the line of the Virginia & Truckee Railroad, 30 miles from Reno and 22 miles from Virginia City. The grazing wealth of the surrounding country was discovered early and farming or ranching is one of the leading industries. Cereals, such as barley, oats and wheat, vegetables and the hardier fruits are all easily produced. The city's railroad and its stage connections make it a disembarking point for the mining towns of Nevada and for those of Alpine and Mono Counties, California. The machine shops, round house, foundry and car shops of the V & T R R are located here. Carson has a number of handsome buildings, among which may be mentioned the Assay Office, originally used as a mint, and costing, with machinery, $240,000; the State Capitol, costing $175,000, and the Orphans' Home, costing $12,000. The city has Catholic, Episcopalian, Methodist and Presbyterian Churches, daily and weekly newspapers and long distance telephone service. Exp W F & Co, Tel W U.
