New tracks have recently ben laid along

APPARENTLY the wsterprocfug was not a

0RY THE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS K OF INSTALLED OFFICERS THE
A SUGAR BEET FACTORY
Is Just What We Want in This
Section and We Have Two
Inquieies About Such

Communications have arrived here
asking information in regard to the
chances Of locating sugar beet factory
from reliable parties in California.
During the past week DR.. c. A.
Hascall has received letter in answer
to one written to one written to the
Salinas Sugar Refining Co., of Salinas,
Cal, which handles business of this
nature. In their letter they state that
they have been looking after this pro-
ject as a good location for a factory
and want to know the existing eondi-
tions and number Of acres they could
depend upon in case they start plant.
Az we go to press DR.. Hascall has
shown Us a letter received by himself in
answer to one he recently wrote tie
Southern California Sugar Co., of
Santa Ana, Cal. In this letter there is
much interest shown as to the adaptness
of this locality to the beet industry.
Ia the past year the government has
taken l6 assays on beets raised in the
different soils and find that out of the
10 assays an average Of 19 per cent
sugar in the juice was secured and that
the purity of the sugar ranged from
81 to 30 per cent. This IS very good
showing, much better than in many
other places where the sugar beet in
dustry is a success.
AS to the acreage that The people
would furnish an enterprise Of this
nature, we believe we are safe in ssy-
ing that out of the 5000 acres Of land
that IS now under the delivery Of water
by the government o. = or 1926 acres
would be cultivated in sugar beets. We
arc not aware as to the number Of acres
necessary to supply beet sugar fact
CRY, but believe that Il the BUSINESS
would warrant It the farmers Of this
community would agree TO furnish at
least 25G0 acres.
In localities where beet sugar fact
ory is located people say that it is the
life of the community and Is of much
benefit to the people.
The climate Of this section is very
well adapted for this industry as we
have from 100 to $50 days in the sum
mer between frosts in which to grow a
crop OF sugar beets. The people, and
especially the ranchers, should consider
this proposition and assist all they can
in securing this new business for Fal-
Ion and Churchill county. Let all who
are willing to cultivate their land for
this purpose call at the Commercial
Club rooms and report to DIR. Hascall.
1t has already been said that several
of Fallon's business men are willing
to take stock in an enterprise of this
nature.

The Followers of Pythagoras
Had a Merry Time Sat-
urday Night.

w. C. Pitt, Grand Chancellor for the
domain of Nevada of the Knights of
Pythias, was a visitor at the hall of
Alpine Lodge No. "a, on last Saturday
evening. At that time Mr.. Pitt acted
as installing officer and the following
officers were installed for the ensuing
year. F. M. Sanford, C. c.; Mark
Wildes, V. c.; Will Kaiser. NJ. A.

K. of R. S.; Harry Clinton, o. G.; Roy

After the installation the members
retired to J. w. Popenoe's candy par
lors where the Pythian Sisters had pre-
pared lunch that would make any of
Pythagoras followers hungry.

THE LUCKY NUMBER IS NINE
In Our American History and
1t Has Always Pointed
To Prosperity.

John O'Sullivan, who has been with
H. B. Clafin, of New York, for nearly
forty years, takes a very optimistic
view of the business outlook for the
year 1909.
The 9's in American history have
always been characterized by prosper
ity and he said that if the traditions
hold out and surface indications are
correct, 1909 will be corker. Rum
ming over history you will find that the
panic of '37 was succeeded by the great
boom of '39. In '49 gold was discov-
cred in California. Pixies peak was
discovered in SO and the mines of Col
orado opened. In 80 the era of recon-
struction set in and the prosperity that
followed has never been equaled. In
'79 came another readjustment of indus
trial conditions, particularly in the
south and great prosperity followed.
In '89 came the boom that collapsed in
'93. In '99 the opening up of the Klon-
dixie and the revival of trade after the
Spanish war brought another boom.
1t looks as if history would repeat it
self 1909. What great discovery benz
efcial to the commerce of the coun-
try will be mnde?

No Action on Delinquent Settlers.

Washington, D. c., Jan. 7.-Thel
matter of delinquent occupants of the
irrigated farms on the Truckee-Carson
project remains in statu quo. There
have been further talks between Sec
retary Garfield and the Nevada delega-
tion in Congress, which have advanced
the prospects of legislation that will
leave 1t to the discretion of the Secre-
tary Of the Interior to decide wether
forfeiture shall be enforced.
The department is exceedingly timid
about letting the bars down in pay
ments for irrigated land, lest by so do
ing the very foundation of extensive
reclamation work be shaken and en-
dangered.
1t was stated at the department to1
day that there is no doubt whatevc'' Of
the abundant fertility of the soil in the
Truckee-C Carson farm. Once the sol
is subdued and vegetable fibers have
grown so as to hold the soil together
it will yield bumper crops.

LEGISLATURE TO Convene

The Nevada State Legislature will
convene on next Monday and Senator
R. l.. Douglass and Assemblymen All
len and Ferguson are preparing to be
on hand bright and early. They will
probably leave the last of the week fol
the capital to begin their duties. They
expect to have considerable work durI
ing this session and probably many new
bills will be introduced that will great
ly benefit the county. Ex-Lieut. Gov
Allen is candidate for Speaker of the
House and should be placed at ths
helm. A caucus will probably be held
on Saturday of this week to select tn,
officers of the House and Senate AM
also the attaches. If the members o
the Lower House of the Nevada legis

Farmers Association Meeting.

The Farmers Association held a
special meeting Saturday afternoon and
adopted plan of action in regard to
those homesteaders that want to dis
pose of their ranches. All those who
want to relinquish are to file their names
with a committee that has been ap-
pointed so if any of the excursonists
who will arrive the latter part of Feb
ruary, wants to purchase relinquish-
ment this committee will know who are
wanting to sell and who to take the
new prospective purchaser to. This is
a good plan and with this system many
men can be shown over tracts of land
which are for sale.

BENEFITED BY NEW LAW
Homesteaders Can Retain Entry
Even If They Should Reside
so Miles Away

The new ruling made by the govern
ment, or rather the Secretary of the
Interior, that person can retain his
homestead and live 80 miles away in
stead of ~ as the case has been.
This will mean the settling up of the
lands under the Truckee-Carson pro-
ject in the future than in the past.
Nothing more could have been grant
ed that would help increase the popu-
lation of this community than this rul-
ing. This will entitle people who live
in Sparks, Reno or nearby mining
camps the right to file on a tract of
land and retain it. The following Is a
communication from Thos. II. Means,
engineer of this project, regarding a
communication from the Secretary of
the Interior:
FALLoN, NEVADA, JAN. 5, 1909.
The following order has just been re-
ceived from the Secretary of The In
terror:
"Under the instructions heretofore
issued in connection with the Truckee-
Carson Project, Nevada, constructed
under the provisions Of the Act Of
Congress approved June Il, 1902. t32
Stat, 8ss), the limit Of distance to be
regarded as residence in the neighbor-
hood of the land to permit sales of
water rights for lands inprivate owner
ship was fixed at 20 miles.
by virtue of the authority contain
ed in See. 10 Of the Reclamation Act,
the said limit of distance to be regard
ed as residence in the neighborhood Of
the land, is hereby extended to 90
miles.
The extension of the limit Of resi-
dence of the Truckee-Carson project
from 20 to 80 miles does much to fur
ther the settlement Of this project, II
will enable a man who lives Ia Reno,
for example, and desires to purchase a
piece of railroad land, to buy the same
from the railroad and his savings
in the improvement OF his tract until
such a time as it becomes self-support-
ing and at that time ne can take
up his residence on the land. Hereto
fore it has only been possible 10 file
water right application on land when
the applicant lived within 20 miles of
the tract.
This increase of the limit of residence
to 80 miles was made at the request of
the Reclamation Service in order to al
low residents of the mining camps in
the neighborhood and in Reno and
in Sparks to own land in the project.
