The business men of Reno
have organized Company and raised
$4,000 for the purpose of sinking
Artesian Wells in Wsshoe county. 1t
was hoped that Congress would see
fit to appropriate sufficient amount
Of money to make few experiments
in this line in Nevada, but as she
failed to do so the people of Washoe
are bound to make the experiment
anyway. 1t would be a good idea
for those interested in agricultural
pursuits in this county to organize a
company of this kind as there is any
quantity of land in Lyon that could
be made profitable which is now
worthless on account Of its not being
irrigated. In Mason Valley, the
rnnchers would certainly be greatly
benefited by an enterprise of this
kind. There 10 one we'll there now,
1t is understood, and several parties
are talking of sinking others. The
cost of sinking these wells is consid.
ersble but the increase in the crops.
would more than pay for the outlay
in a short time. 1t is claimed by
20 cd judges that water can be found
at no great depth in both Mason and
Smiths Vallies. With these wells
throughout the country Nevada could
be made very fine agricultural State,
and there would be no drawbacks on
account of scarcity of water in dry
seasons.

A method of adulterating milk by
adding to it solution of CONNER
cial glucos has been exposed by
Mons Krechel, in a communication
to the French Academy of Sciences.
As the solution has the density of
good milk, the adulteration Is not
detected by the ordinary testing in
struments.
Prof. Edward Hall considers that
throughout the early geological
epochs known as Archalan, Silurian
and Carboniferous, the sea covered
North America, the British Isles
and Western Europe, while large
part of the North Atlantic area ex-
listed as dry land He urges that if
his conclusions prove to be well
grounded the doctrine of the per
manency of oceans and continents,
as tested by the case Of the North
Atlantic, must be discarded.
Late observations made at Ian
same. Switzerland, have shown that
an intimate connection exists be-
tween the electrical condition of the
atmosphere and the weather; and it
is thought that an intelligent use of
registering electrometers may en-

weather several days in advance.

How Watches are Made.

Ina SOLID GOLD WATCH, aside from the
necessary thickness for engraving and
polishing, large proportion Of metal is
needed only to stiffen and hold the en-
graved portions in place, and supply
strength. The surplus gold is actually
needless. In James Boss Patent Gold
Watch Gases this waste is saved, and
solidity and strength increased by sim
pie process, at one-half the cost A plate
of solid gold is soldered on each eide of a
plate OF hard nickel composition metal,
and the three are then passed between poll
ished steel rollers. From this the casos,
backs, centers, bezels, etc., are cut and
shaped by dies and formers. The gold is
thick enough to admit of all kinps of
chasing, engraving and engine turning.
These cases have been worn perfectly
smooth by use without removing the
gold. This is the only case made under
this process. Each case is accompanied
with valid guarantee signed by the
manufacturers warranting it to run 90
years. $50, 600 of these cases now carried
in the United States and Canada. Largest
and Oldest factory. Established 1854.
