SCISSOR to pay the county treasurer
within four weeks the sum Of $50,
for twenty uncollected poll taxes
due the State of Nevada and the

the opinion of the commissioners
these poll taxes could have been
collected by the assess or by ordi-

board says it has been lenient in
the matter because no such action
has been taken against previous

l.. FL. Taylor, resident hydro
graphyist, who is personally SUI
perintending the construction of
the great irrigation reservoir in
Churchill county, has made a num-
Der of statements that should prove
most interesting and i%nstructing
to persons who proposes establish.
ing homes on the tract when il
shall be thrown open to settle
ment.
We expect to have water ready
for distribution over from thirty
to fifty thousand acres by March
1867 said Mr.. Taylor. "Quite
a number of filings, I might say a
large number, have been made,
but in my opinion they are all i'll
advised. Every filing made now
is subject to the track distribution
by the interior department. The
land first watered is to be divided
into 160-acre tracts. It is design
ed to allow each settler not less
than 160 acres in all divided into
80 acres watered and so acres in
pasture. Only the head of each
family will be permitted to file.
The entire tract will be surveyed
into quarter sections. Each set
tier will be allowed to file on one
distinct quarter section only. He
must file on his quarter as a whole.
Intending settlers should not be
misled by agents with alleged
knowledge of choice tracts to be
watercd.
"About May LIST, the govern
ment will issue a map showing
clearly the land to be reached by
water, and 1 would advise every
intending settler to wait for the
map before filing locations. After
filing, the locator will have six
months in which to make actual
homestead entry, say, until Jan
uary, 1905. Within two months
of that time the water will be ready
for distribution. Thousands of
acres of this land will produce an
abundance of grain, alfalfa and
the finest apples and other fruits.
The land will be distributed alb
solutely without favor. The land
at present is absolutely barren and
unfit for habitation.'

Now the baby that is not pretty is surely sweet, and if the wee tot be a little cross at times, beauty must offset this badness. Fond parents at least are expected to think their ba- bies are both sweet and beauti- ful, and so they do.
