HIGH PRICED WHEAT SEEMS
PERMANENT.

There is general belief Just now
that dollar wheat has come to stay.
The crop shortage in the Dakotas and
Manitoba caused quick upturn In
the market as soon as the extent of
the damage was realized and prices
advanced 90 cents in less than as
many days.
Early in the crop season elevator
men and others fixed on 80 cents al
Chicago as a fair price for wheat and
in the big slump Of June and july
quotations fell to about 80 cents
There was an immediate rally, how
ever. when the situation In the spring
wheat belt became known.
Dollar wheat in Chicago means
that farmers throughout the western
country will receive an average Of 50
cents at least. while nearer the sea
board they viii get upwards Of dol.

A horse that inhales dust contin-
ually at his meals cannot give the
best service and soon becomes per-
manently injured II dusty hay IS
thrown down before the horse two
or three times day, and he
breathes over it while eating a large
amount Of dust must enter the lungs.
This interferes, with breathing. and
what interferes with breathing inter-
feres in any endurance test.
Some men, and breeders Of splen-
did horses. too. prefer clean and
bright wheat straw for horses be-
cause Of the freedom from dust.
This must. OF course. be supple
mented with such foods as wheat
bran, oats, oil meal. cotton-seed meal
and corn. The straw is cut and
ground grain mixed with It for one
or two meals. At other feeds loose
straw and whole grain and bran are
given. To avoid dust some farmers
grow a mixture OF cowpeas and
sorghum for the horses. II this Ia
cured right and cut. it does make q
most excellent feed.
But II the hay on hand for the
horses contains a good deal Of dust,
the matter can be helped by throw
ing down the hay. to as great an ex-
tent as possible. while they are out
OF the barn, and by spinkling each
animals portion to keep down the
dust And for the same reason most
ground feeds are best when damp.

There will be less wheat for export
than usual, but the home demand will
be fully met. Had the hard wheat
crop turned out normal, the increased
acreage would have resulted in a glut
in the market Farmers would have
had more wheat TO sell but they would
be compelled to take twenty cents
per bushel less for u.
Extensive buying Of wheat by mill
ers. elevator companies and promi'
nent spectators is evidence that the
present range Of prices is a natural
one. though there may he the usual
fluctuations.
Deliveries have become large both
in the spring and winter wheat
regions and prices are well main
talned. Farmers seem to be I'm a
position to check sales on any serious
break in the market.
Considering the high price of live
stock and the general produce. IT
viii be found that the American
farmer is holding his own. Nearly all
farmers I'm the wheat belt OF the west
have an abundance Of cattle and hogs
which products insure a good income,
regardless OF partial failure In
grain.
This diversificatlon is going on all
over the country. as much In the
south as elsewhere and 1t means the
dawn Of d new era Of prosperity in
agriculture.
Just so far as mixed farming be-
comes the rule. just so far is the sue
cess Of the American producer resting
on a sound basis.

The farmer with small herd who
cannot afford to own a pure-bred
sire can usually arrange with a
neighbor to breed his cows to a bull
that will produce heifer calves; that
would greatly increase the earning
capacity Of the small herd.
Every farming community should
be supplied with prepotent pure-bred
bulls. The cooperation Of neigh
bors in owning such animals is the
ideal thing, and in a few years these
farmers will double their income.
Our farmers can ill-afford to neglect
matter Of so much importance.

FORMER LOVfLOCk BOY
BADLY INJURED IN
MASON CITY

The Carson News tells of the fol
lowing accident to VIM. Johns. son
Of Rev. Johns, and formerly a resi-
dent of Lovelock
VIM. Johns, electrician for Mas
on Water. Light Il Power Co.. was
the victim of bad accident Mon
day and Ia now at the home OF his
sister, Mrs. G. r. Leavitt, YeriAg-
ton, with a broken leg, and body
bruises ofa serious nature.
While stringing wires, in company
with John Gallavin, Johns was pre-
cipitated to the ground from the top
OF q thirty-foot stand pole, located
Just north of the Baptist church. He
was at the top of the pole, support.
ed by the usual swing belt and spik-
90 strapped to his leges. Wires
were being stretched for connecting
up a motor at the new well, when
without warning the pole snapped
Immediately at the surface of the
ground, under the strain OF pulling,
and fell northward. Johns was un-
able to e1tricate himself, and went
down with his body clinging to the
pole and cross-arms. 1t was awick-
edfall; fortunately the young man
was on the upper or south side OF
the pole. He came out right leg
broken Just above the knee, num-
orous cuts and bruises on the face
and head.

LOvELOCK ATTORNEY no DE-
FEND NATIONAL - MINER

:. The preliminary examination of
William Porterfield, the ational mir
er, accused of high grading from the
National mine will come up in
theJustice Court at Winnemucca on
next Friday afternoon. District At
torney Callahan, will conduct the
prosecution of Porterfield The de-
fendant has retained R. M. Hardy
of Lovelock as his attorney.
There. are no new developments
in the high grading case and no fur
thur arrests have been made at Nat
ional, says the Humboldt. Star, al
though suspicion is said to point
strongly in at least one direction.
It is now believed that but two men
were concerned in the robbery. The
evidence against POrterfield is said
to be purely circumstantial but new
ertheless quite strong. He was en-
ployed as blacksmith at the mine
and was one of the few persons who
knew of the high-grade ore being on
hand, the entire 200 pounds having
bean taken oit<by.thes day shift on

BARN BURNED AT
WILLOW POINT

At the noon hour yesterday a
large barn owned by Robinson bro
theirs at Willow Point caught fire
and was burned to the ground. So
rapidly did the flames spread that
everything in the barn was consum-
ed by the fire and two fine work
mares were burned to death. The
barn was filled with hay and a
lumber of sets of harness were
also destroyed. 1t Is not known
how the fire originated. The loss
is estimated at about $1,000.
The large stage barn owned by
Haviland & Hosgins, which was
only a few feet away, did not
catch. Had the wind been blowing
In that direction this firm would
undoubtedly have sustained hea-
Wy loss. The stage barn contained
twenty head of horses and the NOW
contained about thirty tons of hay
at the time the Robinson barn
burned.

GUS Is the house fly in this respect
that the leading authorities on this
insect propose that, it's name should
be changed from that of house fly
to typhoid fly, to call attention to
its dangerous character. The fly
problem is a difficult one to deal
with successfully in communities in
which primitive methods for the dis
posal of human dejecta are in vog-
ue, but 1t becomes much simplified
in welll-sewered communities. To
be sure we are unable to effec-
tually prevntflies breeding in a
town, but we can control it mater
tally by destroying their breeding
places, .privy Vaults and manure pill
es and where there sewers place all
human dejecta beyond their reach.
Eradicating the house fly may be a
difficult problem but the disposal OF
sewage. lis a comparatively simple
one which should be given our most
serious attention as sanitarians.

NO ACTION ON THE Big
MEADOW AFFAIR
IS TAKEN

Nothing was done by the Board
OF County Commissioner at their
last meeting In regard to revoking
the license of the Big Meadow
Investment Company, which through
its Manager, Breckenridge, alias
]. Carter Miller. was declared by
Lovelock jury to have been con-
Quoting a disorderly house. The abb
sence of the District Attorney from
Winnemucca, from whom legal ad-
vice was sought on the matter, is
given as the reason that no action
was taken. 1t is the concensus OF
opinion of a majority of the people
of Lovelock that the license of the
Big Meadow Investment Company, a
long as Breckenridge remains the
manager should be revoked. The
place has been conducted In such
a manner as to be disgrace to a
civilized community. and long suff
ering public want some assurance OF
