In 1875 Washoe County issued bonds for $7,000 to build a county hospital and poor farm. By 1877 the poor farm consisted ofโ€ฆ

40 acres of โ€œgood landโ€, a county Hospital, Pest house (for contagious diseases), Cemetery, Superintendentโ€™s house, several small houses for the county poor, 2 barns, 3 hen houses, a tool shed, large pastures for livestock, a fruit orchard, 3 vegetable gardens, and a brand new poor house. All powered by a large windmill which sat on the property.
