Flne lookla0 Ore.

Some specimens of ore from the
Mazuma mine, in Pumpkin Hollow,
were shown to us this week, which
were literally lousy with gold. The
ore came from 3o-inch ledge at a
depth of about 10 feet. Assays of ore
in which no gold could be seen went
as high as $500 to the ton. The ore
spoken of above would doubtless go
$4,000 or $1,000 per ton. Mr.. Cavanagh,
who is having some work done on
the property, shipped the samples
back to his people in Connecticut.
We do not mean to say that this is
average ore out of the prospect, but
in all probability the ledge will pro-
duce ore which will average $50 or
$40 per ton by a milling test. If a
prospect such as the above should be
found in any old inaccessible place
on the face of the globe outside of
Nevada, hundreds of people would
be on their way to it.

issue will be found the announce
ment of N. w. Willis, who is desir-
GUS of being the next District Attor
ney for Lyon county. Mr.. Willis is
the first aspirant for Office in Lyon
county to declare his intentions. He
is young man who has lived in this
section of the county for a good
many years. He has been quite prom.
inent in politics, but this is the first
time he has asked for anything from
the people. Mr.. Willis passed a
splendid examination before the Su'
preme Court and was admitted to
the bar some months ago. He is un'
doubtedly qualified to fill the position
to which he aspires, and we bespeak
for him the consideration of the cleo
tors of Lyon county.

The WladOw 6ardea.

The window garden often almost
wholly represents the floral world
to jewellers in the crowded localities
of the cities where story upon story
towers skyward and buildings are
built so close that space is denied for
even blade of grass to grow. Aside
from the number of flower growers
who are from necessity confined to
the limits of the window garden
there has been a steady increase in
the matter of window gardening,
from choice alone, greatly outweigh
ing the taste for open air cultivation.
The absence of destructive storms,
drouths and outdoor pests, with the
added value of plants az an adjunct
in home decorations, all conduce to
this condition. The various classes
of plants which thrive best under a
moderate temperature, according to
The DeLtnedtor tor September, are
abutilons, azaleas, carnations, callas,
cinerarias, cape jasmine. Chinese
primrose, cyclamen, hibiscus, mar
guerites, petunias, roses. violets,
stevias, palms and ferns and Spring
blooming bulbs.

There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets inflamed you
have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely
closed deafness is the result, and un-
less the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its nor
NAL condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of
ten are caused by catarrh, which Is
nothing but an inflamed condition of
the mucous surfaces.

The lioaey Industry.

Messrs. Flory and Hartman, who
came in here last Winter with three
or four carloads of bees, are now
beginning to harvest their crop.
Last week they received a carload
of five gallon cans, and are now ex-
tracing the honey from the comb
and filling the cans for shipment to
market. Some of the honey will be
marketed in the comb. In extract
ing the honey from the comb a pro-
cess is used which throws the honey
out of the cells and leaves the comb
almost completely intact. The comb
is then replaced in the hive and the
bees go to work to repair and refill
the cells. AS the repairing takes
but short time compared to that
which would be taken to build an
entire new comb, the bees begin al
most Immediately to again store up
honey. Messrs. Flory and Hartman
are well satisfied with their crop so
far, considering that the season has
been a very cool one. They find that
the freight on supplies brought in
here and on their product out is a
heavy tax on their enterprise. The
honey is a gilt-edge article, however,
and commands the highest market

Water Meetina.

The meeting of the Walker River
Irrigation Association was called to
order in Craig's Hall last Saturday
afternoon at 3 o'clock by Chairman
J. l. Wilson.
The minutes of the previous meet
ing were read and approved.
L. r. Ames, one of the committee
appointed at the previous meeting
to secure a copy of the agreement
and bylaws under which the Car
son Valley farmers acted in the
suit with Alpine county some time
ago, stated that the committee had
performed its mission, and presented
to the meeting a copy of the agree
ment.
The committee also presented and
had read an agreement drawn up on
the lines of the Carson Valley agree
ment but made to fit the require
ments of the Walker River Irriga-
ton Association in the suit now
pending with Miller & Lux.
A committee was then appointed,
consisting of l.. K. Ames, G. w.
Wilson and ]. M. Houston, to report
upon the advisability of the adopt
ion of the agreement by the Associ-
alton, and a recess was taken until
& o'clock to allow the committee to
work.
At 445, the committee being ready
to report, the meeting was again
called to order, and the committee re-
ported favorably upon the adoption
of the agreement.
Sixteen members of the Associa-
ton, defendants in the Miller 4 Lux
suit, signed the agreement there and
then.
The original executive was chang
ed some, and now consists of ]. 1.
Wilson, L. K. Ames, J. Z. Gignoux,
Pat Gallagher and Frank Simpson.
To this committee, by the adoption
of the above mentioned agreement,
is delegated the power to adjust all
matters for the Association, levy
and collect assessments on the men,
bers, employ counsel if necessary,
confer with Miller & Lux in regard
to an amicable Termination of the
suit now pending, and, beyond all
else labor to bring about a condition
of affairs whereby in this suit, or
some other one, the rights of every
appropriation of water on both forks
of the Walker River will be perpet-
uated by decree of court.
The main work of the committee,
to start with, will be to secure the
signatures of all the defendants in
the present suit to the agreement to
act as a unit in this matter. We
understand the committee has met
with fair success on this line this
week. After this work is accom-.
plished the balance ought to be easy.
The meeting of the Association
last Saturday adjourned to meet at
the call of the president.

George Barrett brought to this Of
nee this week specimens of four va
rieties of potatoes raised on the Bar
rett ranch in this valley. All of the
potatoes are beauties. The seed of
each variety was obtained in Maine.
The white Pearl" variety is light
colored, early variety with thin
smooth skins, and will produce I6
tons to the acre on average ground.
The New Brunswick" variety is
also an early one. They are light in
color, rather larger than the former,
rank growers, and will produce IS
tons to the acre. The early Puri-
tan" is little later variety than the
above mentioned, and are of pink
ish color, smooth skins and average
we'll in size in the hills. They will
produce 10 tons to the acre. The
North Pole" variety is the earliest
of the lot. The sample we have has
pinkish tinge smooth skins and
average size. They average one
third of pound each and are from
seed planted on the 4th of June. They
will produce about tons to the acre.
Mr.. Barrett is taking considerable
pains to get the best in the shape OF
agricultural products for this val
ley, and he is continually expert
me nting to find out which varieties
of vegetables are the best adapted to
our climate and soil. We have not
