Largest Anchors Just Completed.


Several anchors have recently been
made at the navy yard at Charles
town, Mass, which are the largest
eser made for any purpose. Four an
chors are used on battleships gener-
ally, and the new anchors are being
shipped In sets to the Pacific coast.
One pair Of this set Of four weighs
1900 pounds each. The largest an
chors ever forged prior to those now
being used weighed 16, 500 pounds each
and cost $4,000 each. They were also
made at the Charlestown yard. Each
of the big anchors required the work
Of five men for a month, hammering,
smelling and welding it. These mann
moth anchors are sufficient, barring
unusual conditions of weather and
sea, to hold the largest battleship
afloat. The. size is Is feet long from
crown to shackle, and about nine and
one-half feet from one arm point to
the: other. The heavy crossbar is al.
so about Is feet long, while the palms,
OF broad, fiat pieces, welded to the
arm ends. are about 80 inches wide.

The Prolific Queen Bee.

The queen bee is a great antagon-
ist Of race suicide. She strives to
pcrpetuate the race with an ardor and
an understanding that is worthy of the
highest commentator. Some have
been known to lay 1000 eggs day for
a year, the number lessening after
that to 1000 and going forward at
that ratio for another two years.
With $4,000 bees to the colony that
single praiseworthy queen laid enough
eggs to establish 46 colonies. Bee
keepers figures on a net income of
three dollars a colony each year. If
the owners of the bee under discus
sion profited from her labors to that
extent the gain was $148. 1t Is not
t. be presumed that any such results
were obtained. To argue so much in
favor OF one bee would be to place
belief in the statement that a man
with ten acres of ground and two rab-
bits can become a millionaire in three
years selling rabbit skins to glove

Tie New Courthouse Site
ELkO, n ADA, Jan. 81, 1909.
To THE EDITOR:
Dear Sir


Dear Sir
The sit for the cDurthous. seems to be
still unsettled; As taxpayer, l wish
to express my views on the subject
The consensus of opinion. of those
whom have interviewed is, that the
new courthouse, should be built on an
elevation, that would show it off to
good advantage; and on the other hand,
few think it onght to he built on the
present site, the old buildings torn
down.
Just IL little figuring. ought to con-
vince the most skeptical that the latter
plan, is not the hest and most &c 1nom-
ical, for those who pay taxes, las it
seems to u.s.
To build on the pr would
mean loss to the county of about
$4,000, or more, to begin with, and
more in coming years, as we will
endeavor to show.
All are agreed, that there is not
sufficient ground, belonging to the
county, where the courthouse now
stands, consequently, more must be
secured, the available ground in that
vicinity, would cost an actual outlay of
OF cash, of about $4,000, add to this,
the destruction of tho present court
house and Jail, which are worth at least
1000 to $4,000 then we would ha,
only about twothirds of IL block, on
which to erect our magnificent new
100000 courthouse, which would be
situated where it would be necessarily
partially hidden from view, and could
not show off to u good advantage, and
would be too near our county high
School, for reasons, as stated IL few DAYS
ago by PrO-Bono- Fublico.
On the other hand, there are several
slightly locations. on elevated ground;
one comprising the whole of Block No.
80, situated between 9th and 7th streets
fronting Juniper street, overlooking the
town, and surrounding country; the
whole block can be bought for less than
$4,000, and is only aboIt two blocks
further from the main business portion
of town, than the present courthouse.
There are also other good locations,
some of them are in blocks Nos. 1928
~, fronting OH Pine street, any of
which, would be slightly locations for
such building, as our new courthouse
would he.
Furthermore; the present courthouse
was erected at cost, of something
over $50, 600, and the present jail build
ing, cost Il little less than $40, 1000: and
as one ax-payer, l would like to ask,
does it look like good Judgment and
good buihcsS sense, or economy, to ask
our commissioners to sacrifice these two
good and substantial buildings, at such
Il loss to the county.
Those buildings, are conveniently and
centrally located, and could be fitted,
FOR public use, such Us the town and
county at present, and in future, needs
so much; we need a city hail. police
court, II dormitory for the high school,
n public library, Office building, and
various public uses. which would be a
source of revenue to the county.
In conclusion, let me SAY, if the
county should wish to sell these build
ings and grounds, they could find u
ready buyer, at II good figure, inst as
they stand. This last statement is not
guess work.
Fellow taxpayers, before the matter
of the courthouse site is finally settled.
Look well to your best interests.

And the next day it showed. Sum-
day morning the citizens of Miller
opened their eyes OF a beautiful
warm day, the first harbinger of
spring. The sun shone, the birds
sang, and everybody and his wife
went to church and yer happy,
dreaming about the Flowers that
bloom in the spring, ira Ia" But,
alas, the dream received a rude
awakening Monday, when a cold
wind and snow lurries reminded one
quite forcibly that the end is not
yet. However, only a few inches of
the beautiful fell here, and the sun
is again doing his work nobly.
