Stewed socks.

A couple of old Mason Valley
'baches" played joke on them
selves last week that they did not
relish very much. One of the
firm, to whose lot it fell to do up
the dishes the other night, had al
most completed the task when he
was called from the cabin on some
other business. He left bean-pot
half washed and the dishrag in it.
His partner came in directly and
in the twilight dumped several
quarts of beans into the pot, poured
in some water and set the mess to
cooking. Two days were given
the musical fruit to cook, and when
the delicacy was served the old
folks had their mouths fixed for a
great feast. DIS was the first
to discover that there was some
thing wrong with the dish and he
shouted to By, "what in the
devil is this black stuff, pard?"
"Divil a bit do 1 know" replied
By, ''but l have a suspicion
its the bacon put in to flavor the
fruit" ats blasted black bacon,
at all events" replied D-s.
"Hould yer whist, now, and don't
be kickin', its only the lane part of
the sow-belly," replied By.
"Take it for yourself and see"
said D-s, and By doing so
exclaimed, "be Jasus, it's the ould
dishrag left in the pot" Expla-
nations followed, and the old boys
agreed to keep mum, but the story
got out, and they say the dishrag
resembled for all the world an old
sock

DredGe Matters.

The river raised considerably
this week and necessitated the pull
ing out of the dam below the dredge
scow. The water has now receded
some, still there is sufficient to float
the boat. AS good weather is now
almost assured work will begin in
making some alterations to the boat,
and connecting all the machinery.
Superintendent Rae has ordered
about $4,000 feet of lumber for
sluices and work on all parts of the
plant will be commenced about the
first of next month. An experienced
dredge man is expected here next
Monday or Tuesday from San Fran
cleo to take charge of the dredge.
1t will be but a few days now before
that part of the river where the
dredge is moored will be scene of
activity that will gladden. the eyes
of the people.

A drummer named Payne, rep
resenting Strong & Co., of Sacra-
mento, met with a painful accident
here yesterday. Mr.. Kean's deliv-
cry team had gone down to the
train to bring Mr., Payne up town;
he had seated himself in the wagon,
and as the team started and made
short turn, he was thrown from
the seat to the ground. He fell
upon his face and turned both
hands under him as he struck. 1t
was lucky that no bones were brok-
en-, but the gentleman received a
shaking up that will make him
sore for some time.

There was little extra work to
do on soft piece of the C. & C.
road below Dayton one day this
week, and extra men had to be
employed. AS no Cinnamon could

The new Touring mill in Mason
Valley started up the first of this
week. Everything ran smoothly,
and those who witnessed the start
were much pleased. The mill will
grind all the wheat that will be
raised in the valley, and it will be
a great benefit to that section of
the country. Every family in Lyon
county should use no other -four
than that from the new mill. Give
it trial anyway.

Butter Thieves.

Mr.. Harris, the Carson Valley
rancher, was in town with load
of produce last Saturday. That
night he left his wagon in Shaw's
corral, and some miscreant stole
eighteen rolls of fine butter from
the wagon. A couple of parties
are suspected of the theft, but no
proof sufficient to warrant an ar
rest has yet been obtained.

Feeding Roots to Milch Cows.

Carrots stand at the head of the
list. That they are an excellent
food for all kinds of farm stock must
be admitted, but they should not be
regularly fed to mich COWS, for as
small quantity as four quarts
three times day will give the but
ter carrotty favor. This may not
be disagreeable at first, but with
age it becomes unpalatable and
makes the butter unfit for culinary
purposes. Cabbages and turnips
should never be fed to COWS where
their milk is made into butter.
Some feed these roots to COWS right
after milking; others put boiling
water into the milk; some even dose
it with inter, but nothing will de-
stroy the peculiar taste in the but
ter when turnips are fed. Feed ju-
diciously and not in such large
quantities as to lax the bowels.
Turnips do very well as a feed for
dry cows, young stock, sheep and &C.
casionally hogs. They should not
be fed to horses, as they are liable
to produce collie. All kinds of beets
and mangolds are excellent for COWS
MIXED in winter, and best of all
these is the white sugar beet. 1t
can be grown more easily than the
turnip and will produce a far greater
number of tons per acre. Chopped
and sliced and fed with little wheat
middlings and cornmeal, it will pro-
duce a large flow of heavy sweet
milk and make butter of excellent
quality and flavor, which will keep
sweet for months Improperly packed
and kept in a cool, clean place.

RumOr OF q Mining suit.

1t is reported that there is a
suit on the tapis over some mining
property in Pine Grove, owned by
the Wilson's. Some time ago Gun
Gle Billy" Wilson, the original To-
Gator of the Pine Grove mines, but
who sold his interests in the prop
erty some years ago, leased the
Midas claim from David Wilson
and began work. He run outside
of the Midas ground in following a
stringer, and there found a large
and rich bunch of ore, with indi-
cation of a bonanza. This ground
he located, and it is over this that
the suit will be brought. Exactly
what the claim of the Wilson Bros.
is we are unable to state. If they
claim the ground located by the
elder Wilson it will be new point
to settle in mining law.

Montana Companies shutting Down.

A dispatch from Butte, Mont,
says that owing to the low price of
silver the Alice Silver Mining Co.
hung up the stamps of its sixty
tsamp mill, and all of the miners
in the Alice, Magma Charta and
Blue Wing mines were laid off last
Monday. Twenty more stamps of
the Alice Company will be hung up
next week. The Silver Bow mill
ceased dropping its stamps last
week. The Combination Company
of Black Pine is making its final
cleanup preparatory to a shut
down, and it is currently reported
that number of other silver pro-
ducers in and around Butte are
getting ready for the inevitable
close-down, as they cannot continue
operations under the present price
of the white metal.
