Discouragement cuts the nerve or
prcsent effort and darlrns the sky or
hope for better things. The evangelist
who coined the phrase. God cannot
use n discouraged man" was wise
preacher. he might also have said that
the world has no use for discouraged
man. Booker r. Washington, In his
Up From Slavery" gives the Keynote
Of his own success In the following SEN
slble words II do not recall that l

begun everything with the idea that
I could succeed. and I never had much
patience with the multitudes Of people
who are always ready 10 explain why
one cannot succeed Such spirit
will carry one through every dihiculty,
and over every obstacle. Speaking OF

POULTRY FOR MARKET.

ing the poultry drawn before delivery,
especially if the carcass is naturally
plump We buy white tissue paper in
large quantities and use Il freely 70
stuff in the cavity after the entrails
have been drawn; In this manner the
body is kept plump anu there is no
taste from the paper transmitted TO the

In the markets Of the larger cities
dealers do not care 20 have the fowl
dressed beyond the plucking Of the
feathers. and in some markets they de-
mand that the feathers be LETT on the
neck and lower legs. u Is surmised
that dealers get q much higher price

and with their ice boxes the carcass
is easier 10 keep than when IL IS drawn

SAVES THE ICE.

bcred that water from melting ice has
just the same temperature as the ice it
self although a large amount Of heat
has been absorbed in changing the
physical form OF the vapOr, it will be
seen that this water, which is just at
the freezing point, is a good refriger-
atiag medium itself, and should be util-
lied. The difficulty is that all refrig-
orator designs disregard this fact, and
allow the cold water, derived from the
melting Of the ice, to flow away TO a
drain or waste pipe. BY equipping the
refrigerator compartment with a reser-
voir presenting "A large surface area,
and collecting the drip water therein,
the melting ice is reduced 10 mini
mum. the water absorbing a large
amount Of heat that would otherwise
be consumed in transforming the ice
into water. Means, Of course, should
be provided 10 carry the cold water 10
the bottom of the reservoir and to per-
NIT the surplus water 10 escape from
the surface.-Philadelph Record.

WHEN LAMBS NEED DIPPING.

II mature sheep are troubled with
ticks, and lambs run with the flock,
most OF the ticks, in two or three weeks
after shcaring, will have left the old
sheep 10 live upon the tender skin
and amid the longer wool OF the lambs.
II is, therefore, evident that money
will be saved by dipping the lambs. In
badly infected cases a second dipping
will prove advantageous, unless the
old sheep were dipped az the first APP
plication. Ticks multiply very rapidly,
and even If few escape death. their
progeny will cause the whole flock
untold discomfort The coarse woolcd
sheep are more susceptible to this pest
than the fine wooled, as tho oil and
gum Of the latter DO not offer n suitable
home for them. Many ilocks are in
tested with this pest each year by
using a coarse wooled ram, whose
fleece is inhabited by them. Use great
care in this matter and If an examina-
ton shows the presence OF ticks dip the
ram twice. at intervals Of two weeks,
50 that any eggs which may hatch will
be destroyed before admitting him TO

No country produces fruits Of finer

there such celery, such mealy potatoes,
such juicy berries.
Nevada should be the seed farm for the
nation. Her wheat is heavy and strong
in food values. growing on clean. golden
straw, free from rust or smut. None OF
her oats goes for horsefeed, as there is
such. a demand from the breakfast food
factories that 1t is all sold for shipment.
She could supply onion seed by the car

true OF alfalfa and many other crops.
The facilities for careful culture afforded
by irrigation as against summer showers,
of the long dry seasons which may be
depended to ripen the seed. the bright
sunshine which could be used as II comes
or modified by artificial shade, the ad
vantages Of different elevations and diff
ferent slopes for experiment would give

way Of good living on the land or OF
clear money earned.
Where the farmer has to seek a market
abroad, he receives the prices paid there
with the freight taken of. but where he
has a home market, which he cannot
quite supply, as is the case In all the
mining countries he receives the market
price with the freight added. 1t IS this
fact that has made the Nevada farmer
the most prosperous and contented OF his
class.
Just now there Is talk OF beet sugar
factories at Lovelock, on the Humboldt
nerville- The inauguration OF these and
kindred enterprises will enhance the
value OF land immensely and the man
who makes his home In Nevada now viii

vance.
There is probably no place IN this
country where land can be bought to
better advantage or on more favorable
terms.

In material interests Nevada Is just
trembling on the rise and not IN a thou

to settlers that she does to-day. The long
period OF depression Is OF the past, the
future is assured.

The wonderful wealth of the Bullfrog

unknown to the general public. Did such

To no other State in the Union can the
Congressional reclamation act of June IL,
1902, bring so large measure Of beneht
as to the State of Nevada.
This State third in area, but forty
fifth in population and wealth, has less
than l per cent of the total area under
cultivation Great tracts of land are so
broken by mountains or lie so high that
their cultivation now or ever is absolutely
out of the question. These lands are not
worthless, for they furnish feed for great
herds OF cattle, sheep and horses tnat
Craze upon the wild herbs and grasses
that grow upon the mountain slopes.
Other enormous tracts of land are
deserts upon which can be seen not
vestige of vegetation. Here there is no
animal life not even a lizard or
horned toad. For centuries under the
biting winds of winter and the parchlng
summer sun, these wastes have lain,
Stunned by man and beast, dreary, IN
hospitable, dreadful. To regions such as
these Government aid to irrigation can
bring no change Not all that wealth
can do or science discover can make
these desert lands fruitful or fit for the
habitation of man. These may aptly
be called the Country that God Forgot
But it is the valley land-the land made
rich by the washings of the leaf mold
from the mountains through numberless
ages Of time, to which the great Govern
ment act above mentioned brings
promise.
The summer flow of the streams had
been nearly all appropriated prior to
the passage of the act, but the flood
waters of the principal streams have
heretofore been wasted. BY the storage
of these flood waters in great reservoirs
for use during the summer season the
amount Of valley land that can be irri-
gated during the growing season will be
greatly increased.
TRUCKEE-CARSON PROJECT.
The Truckee-Carson irrigation project,
now under construction in Nevada, was
one of the first undertaken by the ma
tional Government. The Truckee River
is the outlet Of Lake Tahoe. 1t is prob
ably 10 miles In length and empties into
Pyramid Lake. 1t has a grade Of about
twenty feet to the mile A. great canal
takes the water from the Truckee River
at a point about ten miles above the
town of Wadsworth and conveys 1t to
the Carson Sink Valley, where a large
reservoir will be constructed to store the
flood waters of both the Truckee and the
Carson rivers. From this reservoir late
rails are being constructed to distribute
the water to the lands offered for settle
ment.
