Adolph Dressler, who lives few

the best farming properties in the
Valley, has decided to install an
electric plant both for power and
for lighting purposes. Unlike
others, he will not need to install a

was built near his place and it was

MUST KEEP RECORD
WHEN SHIPPING

Those of this section who may
have occasion to ship horses tc
points ontside of Nevada, would do
well 10 heed the experience OF ship
pers OF other sections. 1t appears
that there is a law on the statutes
of Nevada, making ii unlawful 10
ship or drive horses from this state
without first filing with the sher fl
OF the respective county, COM
plete record of brands OF each
animal
The law will work IA little diff
Guilty upon legitimate shippers but
nevertheless il is for their pro-
trction. Wholesale horse stealing
has been very common in different
parts Of Nevada in the past, and
with the exercise of the abovs law,
such thievery cannot be carried on
without detection and the guilty
can easily be apprehended.

SHIPS MACHINERY
TO ThORNE, NEv.
Western Oil Company May Have
Difficult Time to Secure
Teams.

Contrary to expectations and all
logic, the Western Oil Company
according to reports, have shipped
the five oil rigs to Thorne instead
OF Minden as was expected. The
company has made endeavors dur.
ing the past few days to get the
freighters teaming on this road to
haul the machinery from Thorne
to Mono Lake. This they refuse
to do, claiming that it would be
impossible to freight over the road
at profit because of the deep
sand and heavy roads.
The natural enirepot to Mono
county is through Carson Valley,
being the route selected when
Bodie was in its zenith, some fifty
years ago and since that time has
been traversed by the freighters as
the only way to old Mono. Ac-
cording to those who are familiar
with teaming to that section, the
Western company has made n
serious mistake and will find it a
difficult problem to get teams to
haul from Thorne.
Mr.. Turner, one of the oil ex-
perts who has been on the ground
for the past few months, was in
Gardnerville this week and states
that Mono Lake will be scene of
great excitement during this sum-
mer and that big rush to the
new oil fields is expected.

REPUBLICAN
CONVENTIONS

According TO the Republican
State Central Committee, which
met at Reno recently, call was
issued ordering primaries to be
held in the several counties in the
State on April 4th for the purpose
of selecting delegates to the State
Convention to be held at Winnie
mucea on April Goth, there to
elect and pledge delegates to the
National convention TO be held at
Chicago, June l6, 1908.
1t has been the usual custom in
this county to leave it to the Goun-
ty Central Committee To select the
delegates to the State convention,
but whether this will be done, is
not known. We are lead to be-
lieye that the greater number of
the Republicans OF this county are
for Roosevelt principles with Taft
as the next Republican candidate
for President. With those, this
paper stands, and while efforts are
being made by some of the leading
Republicans of Nevada to indorse
Governor Hughes of New York,
it is far too early to ke fair
and partial guess as to which is the
favorite candidate with the party
of this county. Douglas is en-
titled to five delegates to the State
Convention

BALL GAMES
ARE BILLED

A baseball game between the
first nine of Gardnerville and the
Carson nine has been arranged to
be played in Gardnerville, Sunday,
March %. This is the first of a
series OF games to be played dur
ing the coming summer between
these two teams and should prove
a close and hotly contested game,
since from ali that can be learned
of the merits of the two teams, they
are very evenly matched. A small
admission fee of % cents will be
charged those who desire to wit
ness the contest.
Gardnerville has wealth of
good baseball material and these
preliminary games are for the pur-
pose of selecting those best fitted to
uphold the honor of the town on
the baseball diamond. A site for a
diamond has been secured in
Ezelfs field almost within the city
limits and if the team is properly
supported by the business men and
others inter, sted in the welfare OF
the town these grounds will be
nicely fixed up for the accomoda-
tion OF both spectators and players.
If possible suitable uniforms will
also be provided as well as the nec-
essary gloves, bats and etc. To do
all this the team must have sup
port so don't forget the date of the
first game, Sunday March %.

trees require more pruning than most

STARTING A YOUNG ORCHARD
Points to Be Observed in Securing a
Good Growth.

There are many farmers who keen
themselves busy saying that there is
no pay in bothering with an orchard
and with them and the way they man,
age it, it does not pay.
After you have set the trees the
work of profitable orchard is not all
done. That is only the beginning, and
1t is we'll to make a good beginning,
but the young trees need some future
care. They need cultivating especially
While young. You had possibly bet
ter not set trees at all as to set them
IN sod and let the grass grow IN
around them. for then they will grow
slow, be stunted, and likely die before
coming into bearing. The grass takes
up the moisture and the plant food,
and robs the tree of vitality.
Young trees should be cultivated
frequently for the first few years un-
less you know better method. Some
are using the mulch method and l
think it is all right so far as the tree
is concerned. l think it is fully as
good as cultivating if it does not make
too much of harbor for mice. | have
never tried this method.
My success in caring for the young
orchard, writes an orchardist in Farm
ers' Mail and Breeze, has been to Gull
tlvate the young trees during the
spring and summer and go over the
ground about once week, or after
every rain. Keep the surface cult.
waited. Either do this by growing some
crop which needs cultivating, or be
sure and go through the trees any
way. Likely you will neglect it if YOU
DO not plant some crop, and the crop
will not hurt the trees.
Set the young trees on good ground
so they will grow we'll, and plant DO
tatoes between the rows or any other
crop. but be sure ard keen the sur
face cultivated.
