FARMERS HAVE
STARTED FLOWING

The perfect spring weather that
has been handed out for the past
two week has innoculated the
farmers with a spirit of anxious
ness TO get their plows at work
and begin the seasons work.
Those who have not already start
cd are getting things in shape to
start next week when plowing will
he in full blast should the present
weather conditions continue. On
account of the early storms last
fall and the frozen condition of the
ground during the winter very lit
tie plowiag has been done aud As
q result many are behind in this
branch of work. The many
thousands OF acres Of land that is
now devoted TO wheat and barley
production in this Valley will be
the chief factor Of busy times for
the next eight weeks.

FRANK EVERETT
TAKEN TO RENO

Monday night under the guard
ianship of Sergeant Newgard of the
Nevada State Police, Frank Ever.
EFT was taken from the prison to
Reno and placed in a hospital to
be operated upon for Jacksonian
epilepsy. 1t has been contended
ever since the crime was commit
ed which sent Everett to the prison
that he was sufferer from epilep-
sy and was not accountable for
the crime which he committed.
The development. which have
taken place in the prison since his
residence there tend to prove that
the belief was correct. Judge Cur.
Ter, attorney for Mrs. Everett has
been working for week upon the
matter and with Mrs. Everett has
brought to Carson some of the
best specialists an the Coast to
consult with DR.. Huffaker in the
case. 1t was the opinion of the
three medical men that an opera
ton was necessary and should be
performed at once and SO the
prison board consented to the re-
moval OF the man to Reno for an
operation. He was taken to Reno
on the advice of DIR. Huffaker and
the specialists who performed the
operation. In the hospital the
man has every attention and l..
guarded as safely as if he were in
the prison. Sergeant Newgard of
the State Police will be in charge
of the man at all times and will
see that he is returned to the pris-
on at the time of his discharge.

self against the wishes of the
petitioners and gave notice that
he would move TO reconsider the
question at the next meeting
No logical argument can be ad-

of the Jail. 1t is an absolute ne
cessity for the economic carrying
on of the county government and

entire East Fork. For years no
attempt has been made to punish
the Indian for drunkenness and has
reached a point where they must

the rough element that floats in
during the summer.
The petitioners have asked for
nothing that is not just, and the
two commissioners who have al
ready voted in favor of the jail
have allowed no partiality to
cloud their vision Of broadn ind
ness, but simply Judged the ex-
listing circumstances from busi

The commissioners will meet in

all fairness, our citizens will delve
to the bottom of this question in a
desire to show Commissioners

his opposition to the jail question
There is opposition to the jail

a commercial and revenue point
of view, inasmuch as any prison

towns in Nevada, nothing more
could be expected. They laugh
now when they think Of the pre-
dictions made five years ago, be-
cause, since that time the most
substantial buildings to built in
Gardnsrville have been erected.
We refer to the Jensen brick store
building, the lnelli block, the
substantial brick home Of the
Douglas County store, not counting
the half dozen or more moderen
residences that have followed
in the past few months. With this
remarkable building boom in pro-
gress, progressive addition has
been added to the community and
only divided from us in name, be-
cause the border lines OF Mlnden
and Gardneryille interlap and
the time is not far distant, WI hope
that the towns will be welded by
mutual aggreement and travel
thereafter under one name. Such
u compact would make this the
leading farming community in
Nevada.
And still the building goes on in
both ends OF the community. This
