The well at the Dangberg sheep
ranch is down sos feet. Mr.. Allen be-

water they can obtain. If the flow is
satisfactory they will discontinue oper-
ations at that place and move the ma
chine to the sage ranch.
Some of the silly blunders of Prof
Lamy are quite amusing, but it is be-
lieved that they do no special harm.

figures and lead pencil through a
sausage grinder Perhaps he will then
discover that the taxes for 1901 are not
yet payable.
John Wood, the nurseryman, writes
from Carson that the tree business has
been very good this year. He will
likely visit his Douglas county patrons

shipped from Carson to Sacramento
this year-one carload by Chinese.
Potatoes are only worth So ton in
Carson. A six horse load and a four
horse load of seed potatoes left Carson
for Dayton Tuesday. Mr.. Wood sage
ly remarks that sit looks like Italians
and Chinese will do the business in
future"
