A Hint to Dairymen.

Dairymen should push the point
of improvement by lessening the
number of their cows and increas-
ing the yield per capita. Only those
men become disguised with dairy
ing who are pulled down by inferior
COWS in their herds. We are sure
that there is almost no herd in
which the better half does not pay
a fair profit, and we do not see why
the owners do not kill off the infe-
rior cows. By raising calves from
their best cows, bred to pure-bred
bulls, they could, without increas-
ing the investment either in time
or labor, add one-half to their in
comes and get the balance for the
whole herd on their ledger.

It is within n month now of the
time to hold the County Fair in this
District if is to be held this year.
So far we have heard of no prepar-
atoms being made, but presumably
the Directors have taken some steps
towards the arrangements. Lyon
can get up as good little fair as any
District in the State if her people
would only take the interest in the
matter that other people do in other
Districts. A fair track could be
made at Wabuska and races between
local horses would prove quite an
attraction. Our agricultural and
stock industries cannot be excelled
in the State, and our advice to the
people is to get together and hustle
a little so that we may have a good
display this year.

sow,Timothy and Glover

The only kind of hay raised, to
speak of, in this State, is alfalfa.
Alfalfa is good enough for some pur-
poses, but there are other kinds of
hay that are far superior, and they
can be raised here just as we'll as
alfalfa can. ]. N. Mann, of Smith
Valley, has field of timothy and
red clover that he has had in for
many years, and he raises no alfalfa
at all. His field does not yield as
many tons to the acre as if sown to
alfalfa, but the nutriment is con-
siderably greater. Timothy and
clover have the advantage of alfalfa
because it does not bloat cattle, and
it is far superior to alfalfa as food
for dairy cows, In the Eastern
States timothy and clover sown half
and half would not do, as the timo-
thy would crowd the clover out in a
few years, but Mr.. Mann says that
it grows here when sown half and
half, and comes about even every
year. Lyon county farmers should
try the experiment.

The Oest mine at Silver City con-
tinues to turn out rich ore. A re-
cent cleanup after a Fridays run
returned about 500, 900 to the owners
of the mine. When litigation over
this mine ceased a month or two
ago and it changed owners, it began
to prove bonanza. The first clean
up has a great deal more than put
the purchasers of the property out
of debt, and they expect to have a
cleanup of between $4,000 and
$4,000 at the next run.

VIII Let the Courts Decide.

There was considerable excite
ment in Silver City this week over
piece of property adjoining the
Occidental mine. Three different
parties, Fred Bierke, J. B. Dazet
and Mr.. Foote, claim the ground,
and the dispute was triangular
one. First one crowd armed with
shotguns held the ground and then
the other, and it looked for time
as though blood would be spilled
before the difficulty was settled.
Wiser counsel, however, prevailed,
and the question of ownership will
be settled in the courts.

and outhouses burned this week by
the forest fires that have been raging

house and contents. The fire has
done considerable damage to ranch
ers and orchardists property in that
vicinity.

Amy Protestant Woman Not Engaged
in a Mental Occupation"

"Any Protestant Woman Not Engaged
in "A Mental Occupation"
The Young Woman's Christian asso-
citation of New York city have estab-
tablished a home which is the next best
thing to cooperative housekeeping
among working girls. A dining room is
provided where the girls can have their
meals-breakfast, luncheon and dinner
for half a dollar on the week less thar
ordinary boarding houses charge for
food that is scarcely so good. The din
ing room is a handsome one, looking
really quite swell and artistic, and it
canno fail to have a refining influence
on the 400 working girls who take their
noon luncheon here. Connected with
the place is a lodging house where
women transiently in the big city can
have rooms over night or for a week at
much less than hotel rates. Still,
though, it must be said that the price is
higher than many excellent girls who
are very poor could pay. But the ac-
c~ommodations are superior, the rooms,
like the dining room, handsome and ar
tiGic. This is what working girls
and women need in their poor lives
as much as anything else. 1t is a
satisfaction TO record that the no
tel and restaurant pay, as all
such undertakings should pay, otherwise
no self respecting wom would touch
them with a pair of tongs. Then, after
having done so much that is admirable,
these tender and pitiful young women
Christians spoil a good deal of their
work, woman fashion, by making it u
little bit harder for g woman to get into
their establishment than to get into the
kingdom of heaven. This is their re-
quirement, ANY Protestant, self sup
porting woman, who does not earn her
living in mental work, and can bring sat
isfactory references from employer or
pastor, not from relatives, can obtain
admission" And yet people wonder
why there are no longer any decent
domestic Servants" And yet Chris
tians lament the prevalence of theo-
logical bitterness and hatred! When
Roman Catholics establish a home
for working women, or a hospital, do
they discriminate against Protestants?
Nay, more. Did the founder of Chris
tiauity say, Come INTO me, any Prot
estant woman moi engaged in a mental
occupation, who is weary and heavy la
den and can bring good references from
her pastor, and l will give her rest"
Then, too, what about Jewesses and ag-
nostic-esses?
The most learned e~ntomologist in
England is Miss Eleanor Ormerod, q
wealthy girl who took up the study of
insect science that she might, if possible,
help ave the farmers grain from de
struction. She was accustomed to go
into the grain fields before daylight of
summer mornings. Then, with a water
proof wrapped about her to protect her
from the dew, she would lie fat upon
the ground and study the habits OF the
insect pests. In several instances she
suggested the means for destroying
them. While society girls were deep in
their morning sleep that was what this
fine intellectual girl was about. She is
a member of the Royal Agricultural So
ciety.
