CARSON DAM DELIBERATIONS
We're Held Last Week And
Construction Is Conf
IDENTIFY Expected.

On Friday and Saturday of last week
there was held at Hazen and at the
dam site, meeting of engineers of
the Reclamation Service to consider
plans for the proposed water storage
reservoir in Carson River, with the
dam located at the lower end of the
Truekee Canal. Besides representa-
tiyes of the Project Office. there were
present at the meeting Chief Engineer
A. P. Davis, and Supervising Engineer
f. G. Hopson.
The site of the proposed dam was
visited and careful inspection of the
test pits, tunnels and machine borings
was made. A review and discussion of
a large number of plans and estimates
prepared by the project Office was then
in order. and certain general plans were
agreed upon for further development.
1t was recognized that difficult prob
lens are presented in the construction
of this dam on account of the local Pc
euliarities Of the foundation rock, and
of the available building materials,
and hence IT appears necessary to give
the matter very careful and deliberate
study before final decision is reached.
1t is expected that the amended plans
will be gotten into shape by the project
office in few days so that they may
be accepted for final adoption by the
board of consulting engineers which
will pass upon them.
From the meeting at Hazen the Chief
Engineer went east to join the Board
of Army Engineers which has just
started out to observe the various
works of the Reclamation Service. The
first meeting of the new board in the
field will be in the North Platte project
in Nebraska and Wyoming.

ALFALFA'S WONDERFUL SCOPE
OF Usefulness is Unfolded to
Us As Time Goes
Along.

Recent discoveries seem to show that
only the beginning of the history of
alfalfa in the west has been written.
Its adaptation is general to the soils of
the west half of the United States and
its usefulness has been demonstrated
only in small part. This product is al
ready the chief forage crop, if not the
most important single agricultural
product on the Pacific coast. Every
year brings new use for this wonderful
plant. Alfalfa was first worshipped in
the irrigated regions because it yielded
several times as much hay per acre as
any other forage crop. and required no
plowipg or seeding after it was once
set. Now, it is known to have the fat
tening qualities of grain, is nearly as
rich in food qualities as wheat bran,
and it has proved to be feed for hogs
and chickens as well as for cattle, sheep
and horses. Also it has been demon
strated that its value as food is greatly
increased by grinding, and that there
is more economy in feeding and ship
ping ground alfalfa. For this reason
something like one hundred alfalfa
meal mills have been built in the west
during the past few years. The meal
is combination of nutritive substan-
ces, alfalfa of course predominating.
Most important of all are the inves-
legations undertaken by the Depart
ment of Agriculture. One of its ex-
plorers, Professor Hansen. spent twelve
years collecting alfalfa seed in the Old
World. A hardy drouth and cold-resist-
ing alfalfa was found growing in Siberia
at sixty eight degrees north, in a spot
said to be the coolest on the globe.
Seeds from these plants will be crossed
with the ordinary temperate climate
alfalfa, which sometimes winter-kills in
the colder sections of the Northwest.
1t seems certain that variety of al
falfa will thus be developed that will
grow in Alaska, or as far toward the
North Pole as any one cares to go.
Also the desert line will be pushed back,
and much of the now barren land of
the West will become very valuable.

FalIon- n-Stillwater Game Slow Affair

Stillwater's baseball team came up
Sunday and lost to the home team on
the local diamond by the score of 20 to
nothing, a rather bad showing. in view
OF the fact that Fallon supplied some
of the talent in the Saltwater ranks.
Several members of the Saltwater team
promise TO develop into rafting good
NIT artists, but as whole the team is
pretty much of failure. Fallon's
team manager. w. II. Reavis, is seek
ing games with outside teams and what
happened to Saltwater will hardly be
repeated this season.
The baseball boys of Fallon are not
rendered proper financial support by
any means Following the game of
Sunday The players had to make up a
sum of money representing the dis
parity between their expenses and re-
ceipts. Falon has good ballplaying
talent. A good team is a credit to a
town and is a potent advertisement as
well, but there is little TO encourage
the local lads to keep in trim or even
maintain an organization, in view Of
the late existing apathy. Let's get
out Of the rut.

the support of the business men of
Boise to Brady.
10 add to the discontinue of the
Democrats, it was yesterday brought
out by c. S. Polk who is campaigning
Ada County, that Jos. Pence, mayor of
Boise, on the stump for Hawley, and
Frank B. Kinyon, city attorney of
Boise and secretary of the Democratic
STATE Central Committee, and Sheriff
Bennett, Democrat, have permitted
six Spaniards, twelve Cinnamon and
nine women of i'll fame to sell liquor
without city or county license.
Judge Polk bitterly excoriates Haw-
ley's objections to the submission of
temperance legislation to the people
on the ground that it is un-American
and asks him if those who are most
opposed to the submission of this
plank are the highest examples, re-
terring to saloon men and reading
list of names of the Spanish, Chinese
and notorious women who are being
permitted by the Democrats 10 operate
without a license.
In addition to this, the Democratic
organization has been thrown into
state of CONSERVATION by reports OF
dissatisfaction among the labor unions
whose leaders are openly denouncing
Hawley as traitor.
Reports of harmonious conditions in
Republican ranks in all sections of the
state are confirmed by the action OF
Paul GLADSTONE, speaker of the House
of Representatives and B. F. ONeil,
both opponents of Brady, who are
working hard for the ticket and urg-
ing all Republicans to support it.
In contrast to the apparent helpless
ness of the Democrats to cope with the
situation and stem the tide Of public
disapproval is the increased activity at
Republican State Headquarters, which
will be maintained until the close of
the campaign. New speakers have
been placed in the field and the last
week of the campaign finds Republican
speakers of state wide reputation
speaking in every county in the state
Conservative political observers
here give Brady and the state ticket
twelve thousand majority with the sit
uation bearing all the ear-marks of a
landslide that may take it to twenty
thousand.

News speaks for itself:
Mr.. and Mrs. Olsen are at Hot Lake
Sanatorium this week Mrs. Olsen
submitted to a very serious operation
Monday morning and is now getting
along splendidly. Last June their son
was Hot Lake patient, having been
operated upon for appendicitis. His
recovery was so rapid and complete
that the family felt justified in sent
ing the mother to the same place

The Hot Lake Sanatorium is located
directly on the main line of the o. r.

tickets can be purchased at any rail
way station. A beautifully illustrated

be sent free to those mentioning this
publication and addressing DR.. w. T..

Continued ovation. At st. Anthony,
Rcxburg, Rigby and Ashton in Ere
mont County, he was greeted by i'm
n,ense crowds and enthusiastic ap-
nlause. At Twin Falls, he addressed
l6fteen hundred people and was given a
+ramendous ovation. In two days and
six hours, he traversed Cassia and
Twin Falls counties in trains, autos
and carriages, delivering ten speeches
10 fifty-four hundred people. At Ida
bo Falls in Bingham County, he ad-
dressed an immense and applauding
audience, over two hundred people
being compelled to stand. At Mont
nelier and Paris in Bear Lake County,
the people turned out en- masse.
Never before have the people so en-
nbatically manifested their sympathy
for a governor and endorsement of his
administration. Dispatches from the
different points at which o. V. Allen
and D. c. McDOugall, candidates fo1
state Treasurer and Attorney General,
have spoken, indicate that they'are be-
ing splendidly received. Comparison
between the money saving features OF
the last Democratic and Governor
Brady's administration riddle the
charges made by Democratic leaders
and impresssall with the fact that Gov
ernor Brady's administration has
saved the state nearly $350,000 more
than the last Democratic administra
ton. Following the usual Democratic
custom, insinuating reports have been
circulated Hagainst Hon. w. L. Clifford
candidate for Secretary of State. These
accusations are emphatically denied by
Rev. VIM. baltimore, pastor of the
First Presbyterian Church of Lewiston
Rev. E. M. Finn, pastor of the Chris.

zens of Lewiston. The "nigger in the
wood pile" in this case is the public

GENERAL MCDOUGAL A WINNER.
Boise, Idaho, Nov. .. 1910.


Word comes here from nearly every
county in Idaho that General McDougal
will win easily at the coming election
and predictions are made that he will
run hard on his ticket.
The attacks of Democratic papers
and authors are only having the effect
Of driving Mr. McDougal's followers
closer to him and will in all probable
ity increase his majority Mr. McDou-
gal is a man of substantial character
and in his position as Attorney General
has done signal service to the state
In all the complicated legal questions
that have come before him and before
the state authorities for settlement he
has shown a legal acumen and a re-
search in the law that has surprised
even his friends. He is one of the
most diligent and painstaking officers
that the State has ever had and his
success in conducting the legal affairs
of the state in the courts shows him to
be lawyer of wide attachments and
of great ability. People are very slow
to throw such a man as that over and
to put in his place an untried man like
Mr.. Moore.
Mr.. McDougal is making a splendid
campaign and more Of the people will
have an opportunity of hearing him.
He Is the right man in the right
place and will, no doubt, be elected by
a handsome majority.
