To the Ladies.
Dear Madam:

Dear Madam:
We believe it is the ambition of
every woman who has charge of
a family, to have the best bread
that can be made, and the first
requisite is good flour. Every
house wife realizes that care must
be taken to produce a light spongy
bread.
First: Good flour.
Second: Good yeast. (Home-
made potato yeast preferred.)
Third: Intelligent and careful
mixing. Don't put in too much
flour. If you do the bread will be
dry and crumbly.)
Fourth: Proper temperature
for rising.
Fifth: Sufficient kneading.
Sixth: When the loaves have
risen to the right point they should
be placed in a properly heated
oven.
Seventh: Care in baking.
We can furnish you with the first
requisite in the "GARLAND"
flour which has no equal as breed
producer. It is rich in gluten

A Nasty Ness

Editor Parker Of the Battle Mountain
Herald is rather eve in his criticisms
of the treatment Elko gave the visiting
base ball clubs ut the celebration. He
charges that the visitors were cold
decked at the start and jobbed all the
way through the tournament. Mr..
Parker denies that Battle Mountain
paid $1,000 for professional players. nor
rs much as Elko payed Witt and
Kelley. the Lovelock battery to throw
the game. lie also claims that he saw
the $3.50 Witt and Kelley received.
While the writer does not know any
thing about the inside workings of the
base ball tournament, candor compels
him to say that circumstances certainly
point to crooked work somewhere. He
does not believe the members of the
Elko club did the crooked work. II
Kelley and Witt were bought by ElkC
money, that money was doubtless put
up by men who had bets on the game
and not by members of the club.
The whole matter is getting TO be 4
very nasty mess and the more it i:
stirred the more it reflects upon Elko
1t is unfortunate that Elko's invited
visitors should have any cause to fee
that they had not been given Il square

revision downward. As the temporary
leader of the party do not hesitate to
say with all the emphasis of which | am

mandate of power in November it will
perform its promises in good faith"
Theoretically the president is Il non
partisan executive; hut custom. since
Washington's terms, has ignored that

the perquisites of the congressional
