NEVADA


1t is not only in the rich gold
discoveries that Nevada is attract
ing attention. The new irrigation
project of the government looking
to the reclamation of arid lands,
known as the Truckee-Carson
project, will ultimately rival the
mineral discoveries. This will
benefit the State as long as time
lasts and water runs. Approx
mately $4,000, 900 will be expend-
ed and $4,000 acres of land re-
claimed, and the writer, speaking
by the card, says there is no rich
er land on the face of the earth
not excepting the valley of the
Nile. Private enterprise at Love-
lock has already demonstrated be-
You'd question the richness of this
territory. The limited space al

NIT giving it the consideration it
deserves, but it must briefly be
said that the completion of this
project will add to the permanent
population of Nevada by many
thousands, and if successful-as it
undoubtedly will be, it will only
be the forerunner of other similar
projects to follow.-K. R. Casper

There is more Catarrh in this Sec
tion of the country than all other
diseases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be
incurable. For great many years
doctors pronounced it a local disease
and prescribed local remedies, and
by constantly failing to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it incur
able. Science has proven catarrh to
be constitutional disease and there
fore requires constitutional treat
ment. Halls Catarrh Cure. manu-
factured by F. J. Cheney 4 Co., To-
ledo, Ohio, Is the only constitutional
cure on the market. 1t is taken in

SEEDS Thai co TRAVELLING
Often Attain Great Elevation ana
Are Blown to Far Distant
Lands.

It was an English astronomer;
w. X. Davis, who first discov-.
cred the true character of cer
tain objects, floating across the
field of the telescope, which had
been mistaken for meteoriteAv
says Saturday Evening POST
He made a REIMBURSEMENT of the
focus of his instrument for the.
near point, and found that they
were in reality seeds of various
plants-such, for example, a.
the thistle and the dandeliOn. j
Undoubtedly such seeds often
attain a great elevation in the
atmosphere, and are carried by,
the winds enormous distances
which is exactly what Nature,
anxious for their distribution,
wishes. For this and no other
purpose the seed of the dande-
lion is provided with a tiny para
chute, by the aid of which 1T
makes aerial voyages, as does
that of the milkweed.
1t is really wonderful what in
genuity nature exhibits in such.
matters. The poppy has a sort
of pepper-dredger, containing it's
seeds, which are thrown broad,
cast when the wind rattles the.
dry stalk. or when some animal
knocks against it. The so-calledi
shooting cucumbers" explodes,
when ripe, like "a bomb. and scat
tiers its seeds far and WIDE.
Birds. of course. are great dis
tributers of seeds and so like
wise are water currents. But in
this line. perhaps, there is moth
ing more curious than the ''sea
beans" which people pick up ON
the Florida beaches. Popular
belief assigns to them a marine
origin, but in reality they T
the seeds of certain pOd-bearing
vines which grow beautifully
along the shores of the Carib-
bean. They fall into streams,
are carried into the ocean, and
the gulf stream fetches them
into Atlantic waters.
1t has been as~certained that
many kinds of seeds will bear
immersion in water for four
months, or even more. and still
retain their terminating power,
so that when thrown ashore they
are ready TO sprout.

fourteen years Sister Nutter vas
happily converted and united with
the M. E. church, in which COM

Sister Nutter though not de-

everyone who asked an intelligent

Till age and infrmity deprived
her of the privilege she was
found in her place in the sanctuary
giving reverent attention to the
preaching of Gods Holy Word.
Sister Nutter was happy in her
social life, her genial, generous
spirit drew to her numerous friends
and kind neighbors-by whom
she was affectionately known and
fondly called "Grandma Nutter."
She was an effectionate wife,
loving mother and kind and gem

all who knew her.
Her last sickness began about
the first of last April. She bore
with quite patience, fortitude and
resignation her suffering, saying
to her daughters who kindly and
