A HAY DEAL.
AGENTS Of Russia ScOur.
ine Nevada for War
Fodder.

1t Is reported that during the past
week three agents Of the Russian gov
ernment have been Ia Washos county
buying all the bay they can get for
shipment to Port Arthur
The hay that was five dollars In the
stack is now quoted at fifteen ton.
They took all they could get along the
Truekee Meadows, paying In San Fran
cisco checks and are now in Humboldt
county, where they are taking all Of
fered at any price. The Nevada farm
ers sympathize with the Flaps when
they are fighting Russia, but when
they are offered fifteen dollars per ton
for stack hay and no very close scru-
tiny in measurement, they sink their
feelings of sympathy with the little
Japs long enough to close the deal.
The advancing price of hay is alsrm-
ing the cattlemen and they are rushing
to fill their shorts and IL there Is a
shortage in hay, beef Is liable TO re-
spond to the touch Of the hay market
II the open winter continues it may
not be SO bad, but heavy snow fall
now will send stack hay to twenty dol
lars and possibly higher than 1t was in
the fearful winter oflS90
II you have hay hang on to it, and
II you have beef do the same, provided
you have the hay to feed 1t.
Uncle Sam has lot of horses in
Churchill on the irrigation scheme,
and now Uncle Sam and Russia will
have to get into the market and bid.
Here again is where the thrifty Washoe
and Churchill rsncher will ltemporari-
ly of course), sink his patriotism, and
sell to the highest bidder.
He likes his country and the old flag
and the appropriation, but cannot see
any apprecable difference between the
color of Russian money and the curren-
cy of Uncle Sam when the amount is
represented on certified check drawn
on solvent San Francisco banking

ALIBERAL OFFER.

Through the efforts of DR.. Stubs,
president Of the University of Nevada,
the college men of that institution will
have an opportunity to become thor
ough railroad men. A communicate
Ion received yesterday from General
Manager Kruttschnitt of the Southern
Pacific Company stated that two
college men will be taken into the sys-
TEN as students each year, upon a
small salary, and given thorough and
practical course In railroading.
Upon leaving the university the
young men will first enterthe account
ing department, there to familiarize
themselves with the statistics of the
road. After serving their apprentice
ship in that department they will take
another step up the ladder and enter
the stores department. This is the
second grade of the course. They next
go:into the engineering department
and from there into the department of
maintenance of way This will give
them very thorough all around rail
road training.
The complete course will take from
two to three years aud during that
time the young men will receive a sal
AIRY of about fifty dollars month. At
any time should they be temporarily
placed in the position of regular en-
ploye of the road they will draw his
salary.
After the completion of the course,
while the company does not promise
a position to the student ii Is reason
able that an effort will be made to all
who strive to become thorough railroad
men. The system is so large that
capable men are In demand at al

MoNo-The year 1908 has been one of
improved prosperity fer Mono
county, The leading industry, mining
has taken new start, outside capital
is becoming interested and the real
mineral wealth of the county is surely
being revealed. At Lundy, the rich
ledges of the Crystal Lake mine, for
merly known as the May Lundy, have
been tapped in the lower tunnel at a
depth Of 2500 feet New capital has
come to the rescue of Bodie, and the
South End will soon be compelled to
give up the great mineral wealth it
contains. Electric power plants are
being installed south of Mono lake, on
Rush creek and Lee Vining creek.
Power will be transmitted to Bodie
and thence to Aurora and Tonopah, in
Nevada, and thus will be solved the
problem of working large bodies OF
low-grade ore at profit. A marked
improvement Is noted In the Castle
Peak mines, also in the mines at
Sweetwater and in Antelope valley.
The three-stamp mill at the Golden
Gate mine, iu Antelope valley, during
sos hours run, produced over S2950,
the bullion assaylng s1s.s6 per ounce.

Want TO Pasture
In The Reserve.

California sheepmen are making a
strong appeal at Westinghouse induce
the Government to change its rulings
regarding the grazing of sheep in the
forest reserves, which, the sheepmen
say, are entirely destitute of timber
but which yield food for sheep. In
Mono county the sheepmen are anx-
ious to open up the country now in
cluded in the forest reserve, and have
sent a representative to secure a hear
ing from the interior department as 10
concessions. The Secretary has hither-
to refusad them, holding that the
primary purpose of the law permitting
the creation of forest reserves renders
it impossible to permit the grazing of
sheep or cattle.-Rural Press.

OUR SISTER

What The San Francisco
Chronicle Has TO Say
Regarding Their
Resources.

ALPINE-With a supply Of timber
and good pure water more than abun-
dant for the needs of the county, AL
pine has made substantial progress
during the past year. It is one of the
mountain counties of the State, with an
elevation varying from 52O4 TO lO,40
feet above sea level. and with vast
areas Of land having valuable natural
resources as yet untouched. The
present population is estimated to be
in the neighborhood of 1000, and
throughout the whole country it is a
prosperous thrifty class 1t is a nota-
BILE fact that during the past three
years the county jail has not had sn
occupant, and the county Almshouse
has been obliged to support only one
pauper, an old man who had outgrown
bis usefulness. Those who have built
comfortable homes in Alpine and are
drawing from the soil, not only enough
for their own support but are able to
lay aside tidy sum yearly, are de
sirous that the opportunities of the lit
tle-advertised county shall become
more widely known, as they consider
1t a. splendid place for the home
seeker Good crops of grain, hay,
vegetables and all hardy fruits, such
as apples, pears, plums and peaches,
are produced, while noticeable inn
provements have increased the income
from quartz mining. The building in
this county of three different water
storage reservoirs during the past
year has contributed in no small meas
ure to the general feeling of satisfac-
tion.

A BIG MINE.

The Treadwell mine in Alaska Is
well known as the largest operated
mine in the world, but the following
figures taken from the Mining and
Scientific Press will give better idea

Co, at Douglas is adding to It's hold
ings, having bought the Juneau-Alaska
group on the mainland across Gastin-
eau channel, opposite the Treadwell.
A tunnel two miles long will be run to
open the bodies Of ore. There are 69
miles of tunneling ia this mine, and
one of these tunnels is said to extend
out under the sea for 1900 feet. On
the surface are miles Of tracks to
keep the Treadwell plants in opera
tlon. Two hundred tons of coal day
are required. The 800 stamps crush
$500 tons of rocks daily, and the con-
centrates are carried in ships to the

Is her bullion record of Sl,500, AL ,57o.70
Excepting California no mineral terri

confidently predict that Nevada

According to the "seers" a remarkable

ing the year 1904. These dire predi;-
tiOns, like the seventeen-yesr loeusts, are
heard periodically, and, like our weather
prOgnostigatiOns in patent medicine al
manacs. have ceased TO attract much
attention except among the lovers OF the
marvellous As the year 1881 drew on
many astrologers painted gloomy horo-
scopes OF what was likely TO occur dur
ing that period, while many religious
people believed that year would witness
the close of the present Christian GispeD-
sation. This belief was based upon
Mother Shipton's prophesy-"The world
TO an end shsll come in the year eighteen
hundred and eighty-one. Many fencies
connected with that year were published
broadcast. The great pyramid ofEgypt
was supn0sed TO 5e a miracle IN stone
mutely picturing to the world the Ger
tainty Of the end of mundane things in
1881. These notions were by no means
confined to the iliterate, but some men
holding high positions in the religious
and scientifc world seemed TO be i'm
pressed with the forecast. The year
1881 ran it's course The world did not
come to an end, nor was the year marked
by anything phenomenal or outside OF the
ordinary. The year 1904 will probably
become a back number VITA nothing
special IN its history that has not occur
