REVOLUTIONIzED but, unlike
other inventions, this new system
will make use of all wire systems
as we'll as the wireless systems.
This new instrument for sending
and receiving messages should
prove far more useful to the world
than anything ever invented along
these lines, and the shareholders
will surely receive millions and
millions of dollars in dividends.
The financial history of inven-
tions In the electrical line is cer-
tainly wonderful, and many wise
people have been made rich from
small investments at the begin
ming and are now enjoying hand
some incomes for life.
At a recent demonstration given
to the representatives Of the Los
Angeles press, all of which were
represented, considerable space was
devoted to giving the public an
outline of the new and wonderful
invention.

Farming:
She was a beauty all right when
Tom brought her home from the state
fair. She was a fine six-month-old
gilt right up in show condition.
Tom had recently sold pony that
he had been allowed to claim as his
own and the $50 it brought seemed
like fortune to the boy. SO he got
permission to visit the fair and spend
his money as he saw tt
Tom had a natural affinity for hogs
so he spent most of his time around
the hog pavilion He talked with the
breeders and became enthused with
hog raising. At the end Of his four
day stay Tom was the owner OF Beau
ty-a pure bred Duroc for which he
paid $50. There never was a prouder
moment than when he unloaded his
purchase at the old farm.
She's fine looking all right, but my
land, the idea of paying $50 for one
pig! Why boy, you could have bought
a whole herd of pigs for that price!
They worked you to finish, didn't
they?" Such was the half critical
comment of his father, but Tom re-
piled, "You just wait year or two
and see how my bank account stands. !"
At the right time Tom bred her to

One Acre Alfalfa Worth Nine Acres
Timothy.


One acre of clover is worth three
acres of timothy, and one acre of alfal
ia is worth three times as much as
clover, for the protein content To
test this statement, Professor Hall
compared the protein content, using
the table below. There are 2.8 pounds
protein in 100 pounds timothy hay; in
twenty hundred pounds, or one ton,
there is 50 pounds and in 1-2 tons Ga
fair yield per acre) "a pounds protein.
Red clover hay has 68 pounds pro-
tein per 100 pounds, 1856 pounds per
ton and 272 pounds in two tons Ga
fair yield per acre). This is more than
three times as much protein as that in
one acre of timothy.
Alfalfa has II pounds protein in 100
pounds hay, 22o pounds in one ton and
I,Ioo pounds protein in one acre Of five
tons. There is little more than four
times as much protein as in one acre Of
clover.
The one acre of alfalfa is worth nine
acres Of timothy, considering the pro-
tein alone.
care you going to keep on raising
timOthy?'
A great many farmers don't feed
enough protein. "I hope these things
will be taught in the schools. Every
eighth grade boy ought to be taught
and they ought to be taught in the high
school if not before"
Now, the above gives a very clear
method whereby every farmer can es-
tablish in his mind standard Of values
concerning different kinds Of hay. He
ought to have a Judgment born Of the
best sources of knowledge. We have
seen scores of farmers who thought
timothy hay was the best that could be
grown for the animals of the farm.
Their standard of judgment was not
based on the best Sources Of knowl-
edge. The following table Of feeds, ar
ranged according to their protein con-
tent, is in the above referred to cir-

a registered sire of merit, and in due
season got his first litter of pigs. He
had used every precaution in feeding
to have the young sow thrifty, and
provided a clean, safe bed, and then
sat I'D nights until the eventful time
was past. He was ridicu1ed by his
folks and his friends for staying up
nights with a pig-but Tom had mon
ey invested and didn't intend that
carelessness or neglect should rob
him OF it. Seven fine little porkers!
What a sight. Never before had
there been such a uniform litter on
the farm. Beaut' had been made such
pet that she was as gentle as a
house cat Having no fear for her
little ones she did them no injury.
Tom carried out to the letter Mr.
Lovejoy's advice on hog raising as
given in Successful Farming. R1di-
cu1e turned to praise. Every member
Of the family became an advertising
ready sale for the four boar pigs at
$40 each when but few weeks old.
The SOW pigs were kept. Tom gave
his father a share in the pigs in pay
ment for the pasture and feed con-
sumed
The hog business became a center
of attraction on Hope Farm. Instead
of side issue it became the hub of
the wheel. Hog breeders were visit
| ed, swine papers taken, information
gathered everywhere and applied to
the bunch of Durocs on Hope Farm.
Beauty did better with her next lit
ter. She brought safely into the
world ten we'll developed, spry baby
porkers. These were fed carefully,
their health preserved and sold at
reasonable prices to neighbors when
the pigs were Weaned.
For six years Old Beaut' was kept
as breeder. In that time she alone
had successfully raised 81 pigs that
were worth a small fortune The best
sows we're maintained in the home
herd and the rest sold at from ten to
fifty dollars When the Hope Farm
annual hog sale was advertised it
brought buyers from far and near 1t
was a great event in the neighbor-
hood. Hope Farm Durocs were in
evidence at the state fairs They
were in evidence everywhere
Tom was standing by his pen of
hogs at the fair one year and a neigh
Dor came along and remarked, 'Tom,
we who at first ridiculed you for pay
ing $50 for pig were bigger fools
than you. That pig brought you fame
and fortune. But that is not all. 1t
brought prosperity to Our whole
neighborhood. We learned the value
Of better blood, even in a hog, so
we began to improve Our herds. The
Improvement brought us better prices
for our market hogs Your careful
methods taught us the value of doing
the right thing at the right time in
the right way. In fact, you taught us
better farming. So you see we have
all prospered because of Old Beaut!
My boys take better interest in farm
ing because they see the better way
of doing things. Young man, I wish
you a continued prosperity"

an effect upon the market value, the

Some Of Our South Florida exchan-
ges have been predicting that the
mango will become one of Florida s
most important crops. We doubt it.
The fruit is too difficult to eat. Tan
gerines are popular, and it is more
on account Of the convenience in
which the fruit can be eaten than it
is that the tangerine is superior to
the round orange. In Chicago they
have been trying tropiac1 fruit from
Hawaii: Avocado or alligator pears
are praised; papuya receives fair treat

of mango, most Chicagions say
they taste like turpentine, and all
agree that it is wise to eat them in

ADVICE FROM A
MINING man

To the readers OF the Record
Courier who are interested in min
ing and prospecting, let me make
a few suggestions in view of my
observations while visiting the
various camps and prospect. My
desire to be of benefit to all thus
engaged, prompts this brief effort.
/ observe that most OF the prospect
work done in Pinenut is useless be-
cause of the habit of sinking or
digging on the ledge at the most
CONVENIENT place, regardless Of
values. In mining it is only value
that count. To intellieently pros
pect a ledge it should be cross
trenched every SOY lor 100 feet to
solid formation, then take samples
clear across the ledge from wall to
wall at each crosscut. Resample
the different kinds OF ore apparent
across the streak. Break this up
fine as corn and quarter down to
about one pound. Check samples
from each place, duly marked, and
record made of each sample.
Take to the assayers andwhen you
get returns if values are carried,
take the best average, taking cross
cut of size of ledge as the best
place to do your development work.
A good sample is almost worth
less. First because prospectors
like to deceive themselves. Second,
because the best looking rock may
be the poorest. Then fol- the
the ledge. If more than one ore
body is discovered place your shaft
so as if possible to reach these
without long drifts. Better spend
5000 to find your ore body before
you sink as you thereby Largely
avoid failure and expensive under
ground barren drifts. Ii the
assays all fail to reveal values above
two or three dollars, quit the ledge
quick and give it to your worst
enemy.
A few Dont's. Don't hog the
country. Don't ask nine prices for
prospects. Don't show rock that
did not come from the place de-
as men who examine
mines read rocks as the ninth grade
scholar does books. 1t may cause
one to turn from good prospect in
disgust. Don't claim your ore to
be richer than it is or your ledge
larger than it will be found.
Be willing to lease or bond with
out cash payments, thereby show
ing your faith. Don't talk against
other prospects in your vicinity, as
you will kill your own "Golden
Egged Bird"
Don't send one piece of rock TO
one assayer and another kind to
another and expect like returns

GONE TO THE
GREAT BEYOND

Last Friday morning when the
news received over the wire from
Reno that Miss Lottie B. Frey Of
Genoa had passd away, it was re-
ceived like thunderboldt from q
clear sky. Could it be possible
that this bright young lady who
less than week before had been
in Gardnerville chatting lightly
and laughing SO merrily with her
friends, had been removed from all
earthly cares? While Lottie had
not been in the best of health for
several months her condition was
not considered serious. On April
29th, Miss Frey, accompanied by
her mother, went to Reno to ICON
suit a physician of that place. On
Friday morning, May 3rd, and just
as the first rays of the morning
sun peaked over the eastern slopes,
the spirit Of the young lady un-
expectedly wended its way to the
Land OF Eternal Rest. While she
has gone from the scense, the con-
ficts, the sorrows and pleasures of
life, she will still live in the hearts
of those who knew her best. Her
retiring nature lead her to hide her
best qualities from public gaze, but
they were revealed to those who
enjoyed her acquaintance, yet it
was in her home that her true
worth was most conspicuous. She
was kind, loving daughter, and
her devotion to the family circle
had no limit. Her future was full
of promise, and we dare not ask
why she was taken from IS in her
prime unless, as the flowers are
picked before the frost finds them
that we may not witness their de-
cay. 1t is sad, indeed, to see one
so well equipped for life taken SO
unexpectedly, yet for her there was
no Istanding on the border land,
gazing into the unknown, for
death came as the sunset dies a
long the hills when the day 10
over.
The deceased was born in Genoa
26 years ago and had spent the
greater part of her life at that
place. She leaves to mourn her
loss, a heart-broken father and
mother, one sister, Mrs. Geo.
Brown, and five brothers, Walter,
Albert, Edwin, Francis and VIM.
The funeral services were held
last Sunday from the Methodist
church of Genoa of which the de-
ceased was member. Rev.
Emigh delivered very impressive
and feeling sermon at the conclus-
ion of which the floral offerings
were removed from the white
casket and friends gazed upon the
