About Pecan Culture.

We continually read in the
newspapers of phenomenal yields
from pecan orchards. The profits
from these orchards are almost
fabulous and Pecan orchards un-
doubtedly pay the most handsome
dividends of anything known in
observation-disclosures are the most
valuable of commercial nuts and
the supply can never equal the
demand. The trees grow in any
Southern soil and require but
little attention. Anyone wishing
to improve his property should
write to the Southern Nut
Nursery Co.. of Lafayette, Lou
isiana, for their free catalogue
about Pecan culture. This con-
Germ owns and operates the
largest Pecan Nursery in the
world and makes a business of
selling Pecan trees. f2S-3t

As factories increase so do the

these plants. 1t is the center of

of dollars annually. 1t has al
ready several of these plants In
active operation.
One hardwood plant is now in
operation at Dugdemonia a con-
tiguous location. HardwOods are
in active demand and are valu-
able assets for those who own
them. This section is surround

investor who has capital to place

an ample field for successful and

Attempted Assassination

John Smith, a highly respected citi'
zen of Caliente, Lincoln County, was
shot there on the night of December &c
last while visiting at the home of his
brother Phil Smith, who is the Sheriff
of the county. He was shot just as he
stepped on the porch preparatory to
leaving the house. 1t is believed the
assassin intended killing the sheriff and
got the brother.
The rifle ball entered just below the
groin and penetrated into the abdomen.
Mr.. Smith was taken to Salt Lake for
surgical treatment.
The people of the entire county are
highly wrought up over the affair, and
it is thought if the murderer, who was
still at large at last accounts, is caught
he will be severely dealt with.

Rescue Work Is Progressing Slowly

Ely, Nevada, December 31-At least three weeks more must
elapse before the three imprisoned men at the Alpha shaft of the
IGiroux Company can be brought to the surface, with the rate Of
progress made yesterday considered as an average, even if no un-
|foreseen circumstances intervene.
The greatest disappointment which has been dealt to the res
cuers is that as they go down they find, contrary to their expecta-
tons, no solid ground in the shaft, all so far encountered havino
been loosened by the shifting of the tmbers and earth which first
caused the cavein.
Sixty feet below the 500 level were the miners yesterday and
about ten feet a day is the progress they make. Extreme caution
lis necessary on account of the instability of the ground on which
work is being carried forward.
Foreman Gallagher of the Veteran, has, it is stated, given IN
all attempt at estimating the length of time which it will take to Get
down to the 1O00-foot level and effect the release of the men on #
All that he can say is thatwork will go forward as rapidly as possible.
The men on the ten hundred level are cheerful in spite of the
messages which tell them of miscarriage Of the fond hopes of the
rescuers. They feel that they are in no danger and even should the
length of time taken to reach them be extended many more weeks
they will be able to survive until they are gotten out of their predica-
ment.
