The latest fad in society is the tub
cure. In this the patient arises just
as the crisp air Of morning is
mellowed by the first sunbeam
An ordinary wash tub is then
filled with hot water and soap
sads into which various articles
OF linen are thrown. After they are
thoroughly saturated the patient
takes them up one at time and rubs
them briskly up and down on the
waShbOard placed in the tub. This
is kept up until the neck, face and
hands are a glowing pink. The patient
then goes into the open arr and hangs
all the linen articles 90 line stretched
for that purpose. The one completing
the task first announces the time over
the telephone, and IS entitled to
a prize. 1t is healJhful and also invig-
Grating exercise.

THE VALUE OF THE DAIRY COW A RARE EXAMPLE OF HONOR
Some Statistics Showing the Re-
lation of the Cow to the
Wealth of Nation.

According to tho last year book of the
Department of Agriculture, there are
Il, 720, 900 mich cows in the United
States, and these are worth S702, 945, 900.
The magnitude of the industry can per-
haps be best understood when it is con-
sidered that these cows produce yearly
about 81, 900, 600, 900 worth of dairy
products.
There is no other branch of diversified
agriculture SO important to the progress
of community. The fertility of the
soil can best be maintained by the
liberal use of barnyard manure and
the dairy herd not only makes this
possible, but dairying is also more
remunerative than other branches of
farming when properly carried on.
Dairying has made wonderful
progress since the advent of the modern
creamery and the consumer of butter
has not only been benefited by being
furnished a more wholesome and
palatable article of food, but the wife
in the farm home has been relieved of
the drudgery incident to making butter
on the farm. Where formerly the
cream was ripened and churned into
butter under conditions not conducive
to fine quality in the finished product
and in the majority of cases by un-
skilled hands, now the most of the milk
or cream is delivered to a modern
creamery where conditions are suited
to the purpose of making butter, and
the result has been a wonderful inn
provement in the quality of our dairy
products. As the quality has improved
consumption has increased and the
progress of dairying has been remarkable
during the past decade.
The perpetuity of the country's
greatness depends upon increasing the
production of farm products from year
to year, a result which not only fur
nishes our people with food but main
tains the prosperity of cur farming
communities. Increase in production
can only come through improved
methods of agriculture and soil i'm
proyement. When it is considered that
the dairy COW is the foundation for soil
improvement and farming prosperity,
her Importance is best understood and
interest in her should not be confined
to her owner. She is an important fac
tor in the development and prosperity
of our country.

MINING CONDITIONS GOOD
Rawhide, Fairview, and Won
der. Tributary to Fallon
Scenes of Activity.

While the blowing of horns and other
forms of ado are absent these days the
development of the mining districts
tributary to Fallon seems to be of the
most substantial form. Boom condi-
tions have passed away from Rawhide,
Fairyiew. Wonder and the districts of
lesser Importance, and legitimate min
ing development is coming into full
swing. The hum of the typewriter in
the brokers' office has been supplanted
nv the elink of the hammer and drill
and stock manipulation has been for
gotten for real mine development.
Rawhde is producing more and more of
the right sort of ore, while overin Fair
view and Wonder the real mines are
being worked day after day and mean
while preparations are being made to
work the ores of the camps in the
most approved modern methods.
In Fairview, the Nevada Hills man
agement is installing a modern stamp
MILL while in the mine preparations
are being made to feed the mill with a
never ending stream of high grade ore.
The |. II. Kent Company received an
order Monday for 10000 of mine tim
Der, which is only forerunner of what
Is to follow.
Over in Wonder the Nevada Wonder
people are gong steadily ahead with
their plans. The pipe for the new water
system is being sent out in almost
daily consignments and more men are
wanted to dig ditching to accommodate
the pipe.
II is stated on good authority that
the power company, generating its
juice at Mono Lake, over in California,
Is headed for Rawhide and has reached
point near the camp with its pole
laying. This would Indicate, if true,
that the Nevada Wonder people will
have competition in the mining districts
Of this county, for it is but a short dis
tance from Rawhide to Fairyiew.
Over in the Saltwater range of
mountains more work is now in prog
ress than ever before in the county's
history. Not canyon leading down
into this valley but is being prospected
and worked.

OUR NEW PROJECT ENGINEER
Is Here and Likes the Section.
Tells Us of New Pro-
ject Plans.

d. W. Cole, new project engineer,
arrived IN Fallon last week and as
sumed his new duties as project head,
Immediately upon his arrival. He IL
very much pleased with the conditions
in the Truckee-Carson project and
stated to representative of this paper
that compared to other government
projects familiar to him, this stands out
preeminent when future possibilities
are figured. Mr.. Cole thinks the
government acted wisely in selecting
this great valley as point for recla-
nation. He sees nothing but success
ahead for the farmers of the project,
although he recognizes in fullest
measure the difficulties that may at
tend the making of farms in tho desert
and is wholly in sympathy with the
men who are hardy spirited and optimis-
tic to degree that will allow of desert
farm making. Mr.. Cole recognizes
in fullest measure that without the aid
of hundreds of thousands Of those
hardy spirits. the governments recla-
nation policy would be failure. for
to the arid farmers of the country il
left the task of demonstrating the
business side Of the governments
reclamation program.
When asked about the Carson dam
building project, Mr.. Cole told 10 that
plans were now being formulated by
the local project engineers, that will be
presented to the consulting board Of
engineers, which will meet In this point
or in Hazen, some time during the pres
ent month and decide upon the type Of
structure most feasible. A trip will be
made to the proposed dam site by the
consulting board and following their
trip of inspection, contractors plans
and specifications will be prepared.
Mr.. Cole hopes to see actual work
started upon the Lower Carson dam
before the end of the present year.

OUR FRUIT POSSIBILITIES
Investigated Last Week By Vir-
ginia Horticulturist Who
Likes Conditions.

George E. Murrill, fomerly president
of the Virginia state horticultural as
sociation, himself fruit grower of life
long experience, was in Fallon last
week He was here for the purpose of
looking the section over and seeking if
possible the analyzation of the fruit
growing resources of the section. Be
fore leaving, he told us that this val
ley, in his opinion had wonderful fut-
ure along horticultural lines. In his
travel over this valley he found pro-
life crop of hardy fruits and he was
particularly struck by the uniformity
Of the crop. He believes that apples
are extra ordinarily well adapted to this
section and the raising of pears as we'll.
He gave it as his opinion that the
higher localities of the valley would
raise crops of fruits with greater GER
tainty and was very much impressed
with the disparity of temperatures as
demonstrated at the experimental farm
by farm superintendent, F. B. Headley.
Mr.. Murrill advised the selection of
benches for orchard planting in order
to get the air drainage. The cold stra-
tas of air, he said, hug the low levels
of valley. Another apparent advan-
tage in this valley, he said, was its
scope and possibility of high state of
cultivation, when neighbors will be
able to cooperate and reduce the tenn
peratures over the entire area of fruit
growing tracts by the use of fire pots,
custom that has come to be general
in all the fruit growing sections of the
northwest and Colorado.
Mr.. Murrill stated that he would
very likely return to this section and
look it over more thoroughly in the
near future with the idea in mind of
acting on his impressions gained while
here last week.

STATE SENATOR DOUGLASS
TALKS ON POLITICS

Political lines of demarcation are be-
coming more and more apparent as the
days go by. The direct primary law is
only understandable in part by Churchill
county politicians and as result the
activities of political workers are cur
tailed in large measure. The candi-
dates announcement columns elsewhere
in this paper give the reading public a
fair idea of alignmsnts. For the state
senate, Thomas Dolf. Jeffersonian
Democrat, has been espoused by the
rank and file of local Democracy,
Hon. r. L. Douglass, who has
served the county in the upper house
for four years, having decided to
waive the honor this election time,
owing to the call of his business affairs
upon his time. Senator Douglass is a
young man and his political career was
started auspiciously four years ago
when he was placed on the legislative
ticket and won so handily that his vote
getting propensities were well defined.
He has been mentioned by various
papers over the state as a possible
candidate in the primaries for lieutenant
governor on the Dickerson ticket, and
being an aggressive and able young
man, Bob is very likely to kick dust
in the faces of all competitors, should
he heed the demand that is being made
upon him to try for the second place
on the state ticket. While he has not
confirmed the suspicion. it is highly
probable that the whisperings of his
friends over the state were factor
along with his stress of business in in
ducing him to forego the second term
that usually goes to good public
servants.
When asked by the editor of this pa
per for statement relative to his fut-
ure plans, Senator Douglass, bob" to
all his friends, disclaimed any know
ledge of the reports going the rounds
of the press, having to do with seeking
the nomination for lieutenant-governor
He did say, however, that he was heart
and soul with Thomas Dolf in his race
for the senatorial seat to be soon va
Gated by him. This is what he said:
'In Thomas Dolf, if elected, Chur-
chill county will have representative
in the state senate, able in every sense
of the term, to properly serve his con-
stituency. Particularly at this time
are men wanted who are of an aggres-
sive, fearless type. Churchill county
wants no figul ehead statesmen who
specialize on answering roll call and
signing for salary warrants. 1t needs
men who will work to the interests of
the county, and the needs of this Sec
tion are many at this particular time.
Should State Senator Douglass con-
clude to heed the demand that is being
made upon him to seek the lieutenant
governorship, it would be pleasure to
the management of this paper to sup
