The Cattle Business

At present Nevada Is shipp3ng al
immens- lot Of stock East, purchased
by the Eastern buyers for ttar mar
ket,
Realizing some time ago that the
crops OF the East were going to be
bountiful and that feed would be cheap
this season, buyers we're sen to Ne
wade and began purchasing lambs,
calves AID cattle in large numbers
and ship them East to fatten. Up to
this time the cattle supply is getting
to be q'lte shor as me great droves Of
cattle which have left the State have
almost left US without beef cattle.
Ii will be a. least two years before
the young cattle now on the ranges
will be large enough for market. but
our ranchers and stockmen should see
that after weaving their calves they
should be well fed and proper atten-
ton paid to them, as good prices are
derived from them will be Seer from
the following prices which were paid
" lho SflleiS vi CdtLle at

Odds at 1913 and 1855 5-y, ar-Olds at 1871 SO.
The quantities OF ieea on the ranges
this Fall is sufiHi"nt evidence that a
great many more cattle could be Tais-
ed here il u ranchers and stOckmen
take this natter n hand.
The million O. acres that will be
made productive by irrigation is not
all the land in this State that will
produce good crops by a long way.
1t is rather so much which Is PROSPECT
lively to be added to the productive
resources Of the State. There is a
very large area Of grazing land,
which in former years has produced
some Of the very best cattle that have
ever been sent to outside markets and
the time is not far distant when every
acre in Nevada which can be made
productive by irrigation will be turn
ed to account by an increasing pOpu-
lation
The above prices were sent US from
Chas A Jones. General Manager Of
Humboldt L and and Cattle Co, for
which he has our thanks for t..
same.

A RAILROAD ACT.
1t Makes Times Lively in The
V. & T. Shops.

10 March 1893 an act was passed
compiling all the railroads in the
United States to put automatic coup
liDSs and pneumatic breaks on their
cars. Som Of ne roads which have
neglected TO comply with this law
have been sharply raped over the
knuckles by the Interstate Commerce
Commission. Several or these roads
have asked for an extension Of time
wlthln which their cars, under the
act Of March 2, 1893, are required to
be equipped with the automatic COUP
lers and power or train brakes. the
time fixed by the act being January
l, 1898. The commission has made
an order fixing the hearing Of such
petitions for Wednesday, Dece mber l..
Inc commission has ais ,rde1ed
that any railroad filing application
Tor extension, shall also make, on or
before November 20. 1897 "a state ment
under oath Of the number Of freight
cars owned and the number Of freight
cars which will be equipped with auto
matte cOuplers and the number which
Will be equipped with power or
train brakes by December !, 1897. and
the number of freight cars which
have been equipped with automatic
couplers and the numt er which have
been equipped with power or train
brakes each calendar year since the
act went into effect.
The V. & I. R. r. considered this
an Interstate prop DsitiOn not affect
Ing roads whose termini were iD one
State, but recently Mr.. YeriugtoD.
Superintendent of the Y. & T. re-
ceived a note from the Commission
to the effect that all roads came under
the provisions of the act. ever if thew
were no more than a mile long, so
long as they hauled cars which came
from other States into the State where
the road operated.
The road was ordered to comply
with the act or suffer the penalties.
This nas caused H large extra force TO
go In the machine shops, moulding
pattern and department. The coul,J4rs
are known as Sans couplers" trpm
the name Of the inventor, and enuotes
the cars to be coupled without h.
employee going between them. The
cars are coupled autom atically and
uncoupled with the touch of a lever
from the side. The invention is a
humane n and will save hundreds
Of lives lost annually by means Of the
old system.
forthe next few weeks there will be
a busy season 10 the V. & I. shops.
there is also a royalty on the couplers
and thea agent Of the company was in
this city yesterday making
ments to collect it.

While it has often been spoken of by
the press and by men who have OBJ
served the matter the people of the
state have never seemed to realize the
the fact that our forests are fast disap-
pearing. Labor Commissioner Morse
has investigated quite carefully and
again calls attention to the matter.
He says that the pine is nearly all
gone and the forests of oak, ash, maple,
Eastwood, black walnut, etc, are rap
idly being destroyed. There is no
doubt but that the removal of these
forests has had some effect on climatic
conditions. The information obtained
by Mr.. Morse came through township
officials. The total figures for the
state are: Hardwood, 6,l66,977 acres;
pine, IT'S, POS; hemlocl<, 46s, l66; plains,
5000, $40; swamps, 3,265,667.
