RAILROAD
POSSIBILITIES,
Branch Line From C. & c,
May Connect With S.
P. at Hazen.

II is quite possible that the South
ern Pacific company will do something
with the C. & c. road in the near fl.
ture which will be Of much benefit tc
Mason Valley, says the Lyon County
Times. 1t has been decided by the
lonopah Mining Company to ship its
ores to Salt Lake instead of erecting
reduction plant in Tonopah. To dc
this a low rate of transportation must
have been obtained, and it has been
decided to run a branch line into To-
ropah from the C. & C. Whether
this will be broad gauge or . narrow
gauge no one seems to know but we
are inclined to think 1t will be the for
mer. The cutoff surveyed from
Churchill station on the C. & C. to
the Southern Pacific main line at a
point near Wadsworth, some years ago,
has recently been run over again, only
this time 1t strikes the main line near
Hazen. in Churchill county. 1t can
easily be seen what great saving in
transportation such a cutoff would
make, especially If the road was a
broad gauge. 1t is possible that this
stretch Of road will be broad gauge
and that the road from Mound House
to Churchill cutoff will remain narrow
gauge and third rail allow the small
trains traversing the broad gauged por-
ton of the road until such time as the
company sees fit to broad gauge the
entire road and extend it south to con-
meet with Los Angeles. All these
matters are now being seriously con-
sidered by the Southern Pacific Com
pany.

that If they have taint of white blood

A COMPARISON
In Money and Food Value.

Coffee had been used in our family
for years. and we all drank it except
husband, who gave it up some years ago
because it injured his health writes a
lady from Granville. Ohio
Last year we spent the summer in
the northern woods. Among our table
supplies. unknown TO my husband, 1
had taken along several packages of
Postum Food Coffee, but it was stored
away and forgotten for weeks. during
which time we used coffee
"One day my husband said: 1 wish it
were possible to get some Postum. l
would like to try it Two hours later. at
dinner, l served him cup. brewed ac-
cording to the directions on the package.
His surprise was complete The taste
pleased him and he drank second cup.
From that hour We continued TO use
Postum with gratifying satisfaction, and
not another cup OF coffee has ever come
TO our table.
My husband found that il did not
produce the distress that forced him 10
renounce coffee. and that It strengthened
his nerves and stopped all his stomach
trouble. Its effect on me vas no less
gratifying; though I had drunk coffee
but sparingly. had suffered considerably
from it. II disordered my nerves and
disturbed my liver Postum corrected
these evils and proved sedative and
most wholesome food
we were both interested in the COM
parative cost OF coffee and Postum. We
had always paid b cents pound for cof-
fee. A large package Of Postum costs

quarter Though we drank Postum more
freely and frequently than We had coffee.
we found that the large size package OF
Postum lasted as long rs two pounds OF
coffee. a difference Of - cents in favor Of
Postum. In a year this saving Of MONEY
was considerable. and tbs fact recon-
mends Postum 70 all people who believe

law some four years ago. The law gov
erning the county superintendent was
passed on the request OF almost all the
county superintendent and school teach
ers in the state The second Monday in
January is about the middle of the school
terms in the country districts. The old
county superintendent may have iDaug-
urated some new ideas which ne wished
to try in some of the districts and he
may have his teachers organized TO do
certain kinds of work during the school
year. Many other reasons were brought
forward when the change was advocated
The new superintendent may not know
what schemes the old incumbent may
have used and he may have some az his
own that he wishes to try. Each super
intendent has a different way Of con
Quoting his schools. The experiments
may be working successfully and the
teachers may want to keep their old

him regarding their work. The new Of
ficer would know little. IL anything. about
the work as advocated by the former Of
ficer and il is said that the changing Of
officers always worked q hardship on the
teachers and pupils on account Of the

schools close and the reports for the

TRANSPORTATION DELAYED
Has Been Sharp Advance in
Tin and Copper.

New York, Jan. s.-R- G. Dunn & Co s
weekly review of trade tomorrow will
j say: Collections are notably prompt at
, all leading centers. bearing testimony TO
the strong financial position of the ma
tons industries at the opening of the
new year Distribution of merchandise is
heavy and manufacturers are pressed for
prompt delivery. Orders for spring goods
come freely and in some lines there is
more than a sample business in fall
weights. Tardy deliveries in the past
lead purchasers to anticipate require
ments more than heretofore and orders
are being placed far in advance of actual
needs. The fuel situation is still the one
seriously disturbing element rendering
abnormally high the cost of manufactur-
ing and restricting the purchasing power
of almost the entire population. Fortu-
rately, this comes at time of excep-
tional prosperity. or there would be
geenral contraction of consumption in
other lines. There is little interruption
many operations are interrupted by the
delay in transit of needed materials
In the iron and steel industry the most
significant event of the week was the
discussion regarding the profit sharing
proposal by the leading producer. made
quate supplies of coke are still restrict
ing operations.
Partially because of the published sta
tistics of supplies, but more on account
of London speculate there was a sharp
advance in prices of tin and copper fol-
lowed by some reaction due to realizing
sales. New England producers of wool
wear are busy on spring orders and a few
deliveries have already been made.
although shipments are light in these
lines as yet.
Exceptional activity in rubber goods
had reduced supplies to an unusually low
point. Some varieties of leather had adj
vanced slightly and tanners of hemlock
sole have onl ylimited holdings.
No new features have appeared in the
domestic demand for dry goods The
best event as to cotton has been the con-
tinued buying for export. which has ex-
ceeded expectations very largely. The
print cloth market has ruled very firm,
with business restricted by the reserve of
sellers. who show no disposition to make
concessions. AS to wooden goods TIE de-
mand for overcoatings for next fall has
not come up to expectations. which may
be attributed In part to the fact that the
season opened unusually early. Prices are
