Valuable Information for Farmers.

We condense the following from a
communication written by H. H. Beck
of Reno to the Journal:
l am sure the crop of wheat now be-
ing threshed is the best ever harvested
in the western counties of our State.
This is particularly true of Washoe and
Douglas counties. 1t is no doubt a
fact that the crop is considerably short
of that of two years ago. This is one
of the results of the low price of grain
during the last three years. Indeed
the price was SO low that many farm
ers abandoned grain raising and devot-
ed their energies to stock-raising and
the dairy.
This fact has resulted in short
crop this year, not because the yield
per acre is less than usual, but because
less acres were cultivated, so that Ne
vada has returned to her normal con-
ditions of years ago, when the state
only produced about one-fourth or
one-third enough wheat necessary to
feed its inhabitants.
However, a "better day" for the
wheat farmers has come through the
enhanced price of grain, not only in
Nevada, but in all the grain-raising
districts of the United States, if not of
the world. Two and three years ago
the wheat farmers of Lovelock valley
exported thousands of tons to tide
water from which they realized sum
at home of much less than $40 per ton.
The grain raised there this year is
scarcely sufficient for local use, al
though if they had their usual crop it
would bring them more than $27 per
ton at home.
Generally the price this year is far
greater than for number of years
past. II may be here noted that the
grain merchants of Chicago, st. Louis
and San Francisco all agree that the
present high prices are more than
likely to last for years to come, so l
sidered by our farmers and prepare
tons made for the coming season.
Idon't hesitate to say that fall sown
or winter wheat is the best for our soil
and climate, because:
First, it will yield more and better
flour. Second bushel and half OF
seed sown in the fall will produce from
ten to twenty per cent more grain
than spring sown wheat and as already
suggested, better quality for which
the -four mill man no doubt will pay at
least 81 per ton more.

Believe Calvin was Poisoned.

The Reno Gazette says: The good
people of Overton are all wrought up
over the sudden death of Chas. Calvin,
about two months ago, and shortly af-
forwards of the elopement of DR.. John
son, the physician of Overton, with
Mrs. Calvin, the wife of the deceased.
Charles Calvin was buried in Car
son and it is rumored that his re-
mains will be disinterred and an au-
topsy held.
The deceased died in commissions,
and after the elopement foul play was
suspected.
AT the time of his death few were
suspicious of the circumstances and
from what has since transpired the
suspicious of the entire community
have been aroused
DR.. Johnson and Mrs. Calvin have
been seen together since their depart
ure and if the autopsy discloses any
thing discriminating they will both be
brought back to Overton.

The county tax-list for 1903 has been
printed and will be distributed to the
taxpayers in a day or two. The assess
ment roll foots up about $1,000 less
than last year. On account of the
change in the State line, Douglas coun-
ty loses portions of the Bassman and
Panning properties to Alpine county,
Cal, and personal property in the
shape of steamers on Lake Tahoe,
amounting to SO, 900, heretofore assess
ed in Douglas county, was assessed in
California this year. The tax-list
shows an increased valuation of real
estate and slight falling off in per-
sonal property. The tax rate is $3.50
on each 500 valuation. Taxes pay
able, Monday, November 2nd, and de-
linquent Monday, December eth. One
half can be paid on or before Dec 9TH,

 Quick, energetic and useful people usu- ally have short, narrow roreheads. A straight forehead, one that rises from the eyebrows in a perpendicular line. is a sign of inflexibility and tenacity. l As to heads, in the beauty market the small one takes the prize. The American girl must realize this fact. for she has somehow lost the large head which she | once had.

 If her head is too large for beauty. the girl of the present day is clever enough to make 1t seem smaller by dressing heI

What is called tine Russian system for removing wrinkles in the forehead IS worth trying if lines are threatening the appearance of the brow.
 The Russian way Is to bind hot cloths wrung out of hot water. upon the brow and then to lie down. As the cloths should be changed frequently. a maid or an accommodating friend is useful ad- junct to this toilet rite. The ''pa- tient" is given a vinaigrete of soothing salts to quiet the nerves; she is directed to think pleasant thoughts and to hold her face as quiet as possible. so that the lines may be allowed to disappear under the magic influence of the hot applica- tions This Is a treatment which must be taken when time is not pressing.
 Another new wrinkle for curing wrin- kles is the "frowner." This is designed primarily to blot out or erase the wrin- kles caused by frowning, but 1t may be | applied with equal success to crows feet. or to the literary wrinkle"-the one deep crease between the eyebrows.
 i The frowner consists simply of a small and rather stifr bit of white paper. with a coat of gum arabic on the back. The bit of paper may be round or square and just large enough to cover the lines it Is designed to cure. Moisten the papeI and paste 1t on wherever 1t Is needed The bits of paper may also be kept or by means of narrow bands of ribbon.
 Heavy writing paper from which tC fashion these frowners is available t. all.
 Before attempting to obiiterate lines the skin should be whitened, if necessary by removing tan and sunburn. A lotioY for this purpose is made of ounce O, citric acid and ? ounces each of vioIe' water and glycerine.
