ed on the farmer-When he pros.
pered, all prospered, He then
stated that there were certain
questions which the farmers
should take up. One of these
great questions, that of levees,
had been partially solved. An
other closely allied to it was that
of drainage. 1t is as important
to protect the crops from the Wa
ter from the heavens as it is from
the Mississippi. But this protec-
ton involves another question,
that of taxation, land every Ameri-
can hated and despised to pay
taxes-it is an inheritance from
our fOrefathers who fought the
Revolutionary war to keep from
paying taxes. Yet we can't have
clothes, or food or homes
| without paying for them. We
found we couldn't have schools
without paying for them, and the
great common sense of the peO-
pie, meeting that issue, it has
been done, and none had gone
ahead Of the good old parish of
Lafayette in providing for her
children.
The farmers might think they
didn't want drainage. but they
did and were going to have it.
Another thing they wanted
. and wanted bad was good roads,
! for bad roads was the biggest
tax they paid. A buggy which
ought to last three years lasted
but one on account of bad roads,
horse could do only One-third
of the work he ought to do. and
a wagon could haul only one third
of load. When a wagon broke,
it was mistake to believe they
were paying for fixing it-they
were paying a tax for bad roads.
Could good roads be had, and
good drainage? Yes: just as
easy and it would cost whole
lot less. When an American
found he could have good thing
cheaper than a bad one, he had it
every time. He didn't object to
a tax, what he wanted was a hun
dred per cent. return. This is
shown by the evidences of i'm
provements seen on every hand.
He believed the ladies should
encourage the organization of the
farmers. That they were the
greatest moral moving force in
the country. When the women
take charge of a question it was
settled and settled right. When
they wanted drainage they would
have it. When they tired of hav-
ing bad roads, they would have
good roads. When the women
wanted anything all that was left
to the men was to give tito them,
and he urged the ladies present
to take an interest in public ques-
tiOns and make the men do.
He closed by paying fine trib-
ute to the greatness and re-
sources of our Louisiana, and
asked that the youths of the State
be taught to cling to it's glorious
traditions and noble ideals.
He was listened to throughout
with close attention, and at the
close President Avant expressed
appreciation of his practical and
entertaining address.
After America had been sung,
all were invited to partake of a
fine barbecue dinner, to which
everybody did full justice.

Buck RakeS Used on Alfalfa Hay

On the sagebrush ranch, which
is owned by the Dangberg L. and
l.. S. Co. a new system has been
inaugurated for putting up alfalfa
hay. What is known as buck
rakes and Jackson stackers have
been pressed into duty, and while
they are generally used for grass
hay growing on river bottoms, this
is the first time they have been
used on alfalfa and is done because
of the scarcity of men. While this
mode of hauling alfalfa hay is not
as practical as hauling it on wag-
ons, yet more hay can be handled
in shorter time, and the only
drawback seems to be the losing
of large percent OF leaves from
the alfalfa stocks.

INDIAN HACKS PAL
TO DEATH WITH
Pocket knife

Word was received in Gardner.
vile last Sunday that two Indians
had received quantity of whiskoy
from Fale's Springs on the Bridge
port road and after drinking the
fire water entered into a quarrel
which resulted in one of the red
men getting cut and hacked to
pieces and thrown into the creek.
The Indian committing the
crime was captured by the sheriff
of Mono county and is now in jail
at Bridgeport. The people of Mono
county are very indignant over the
affair and the parties who sold the
whisksy to the Indians will un-
doubtedly get their just deserts if
positive proof of their guilt can be
obtained.

Some of the finest copper speci-
mems ever shown in Gardnerville
were this week displayed by John
Donnelly and were takenl from his
mine which is located within
twelve miles from town. The cop
per ore was placed in forge in a
blacksmith shop and the pure cop
per was rought to the surface of
the different specimens. 1t is said
to be the freest copper proposition
in Nevada and experts have stated
that the ore could be worked for
less than three dollars ton. Just
now the mine is under bond to a
Goldfield company and had it not
been for the labor troubles which
have caused a tie-up in the mon
ey markets of the State, this mine
would have been sacking ore before
this.

FARMERS TAKE
NECESSARY Steps
HUNTING PROHIBITED.
Hunters Destroy and Damage
Property is Given as the
Cause.

Chas. Lewis WAS in town this
week and gave out the information
that the ranchers in the lower end
of Carson Valley had combined
and will prohibit hunters from
their fields from this date on. He
claims that in the past, those hunt
ing on the ranches in that vicinity
have missussd the privilegeslgrant-
ed them, by breaking down fences
manning stock land doing other
damage, and as result it will bar
all hunters from their fields. A
mong the farmers are kirman q
Lewis, Dangbrrg company, includ-
ing the Schulz, Cradelbaugh and
other property controlled by them,
Peter Heitman, Fulstone ranch
and Fred Schacht.
In closing those fields from pub
lie hunting, it cuts out some of the
best hunting territory in the Val
ley, but the hunters alone are to
blame. The farmeas are not TAX
ing these steps from selfish stand
point, but merely to protect their
stock and property, and the mis-
doings of a few unscrupulous per-
sons, have deprived we'll meaning
hunters from privileges which
would otherwise been theirs.

Bessie VAR Visits
Childhood Scenes

Miss Bessie Vair spent several
days in the Valley last week re-
newing old aequaintances and in
cidently paid the Record Courier
Office short visit. Some fifteen
years ago, Miss Vair, then slip of
girl, was residing with her
parents at Lake Valley. Many
logging camps were in operation
in the mountains in those days
aud the services of a railroad was
required to transport the big logs
from the camps to the long pier at
Bijou where they were rolled into
the lake and towed to the sawmill
at Glenbrook. Bessie's father was
conductor of the wood train and
while making a switch one day, fell
beneath the wheels Of the engine
and his life was crushed out. Az
ter her fathers death, the big
hearted woodsmen poured out
their sympathy and offered their
assistance to the stricken family.
Though very youpg in years, Bessie
realized and appreciated the ex-
tended kindness and came all the
way from Ravenna, Ohio, to once
again view the scenes of her child
hood.
