The Cheapest Farm.

The cheapest lands in the coun-
try are not in the West, but
many be found right here at
home. We can find a thousand
acres Of land in one body in
Grant county which can be pur-
chased for less than $50 an acre
on an average. The land may
have been badly used, but it is
not worn out land. 1t will pro-
duce good grass, and put in grass
and used as grazing land for cat
tie or sheep, in few years time
it will more than double in value
and all the time that it is improv-
ing it will pay the investor diyi-
dend amounting to mere than
legal interest On lis money. The
land in this section of the country
never wears out. 1t may by bad
handling become run down, but
it is never so far gon chat it will
not produce fertilizing crops.
Our advice to the man with from
ten thousand dollars and up to
buy old land if he wishes to in
vest his money where it will be

The family with young children
that is without sickness in the house
now and then is rare, and so it is i'm
portant that the head of the house
should know what to do in the little
emergencies that arise. A child with
aserious ailment needs doctor, it is
true. but in the majority of instances,
as any doctor knows, the child suffers
from some intestinal trouble, usually
constipation.
There is no sense in giving it a pill
or a remedy containing an opiate, nor
is flushing of the bowels to be always
recommended. Rather give it a small
dose of mild, gentle laxative tonic

The chrysanthemum is Japan's ma
tional flower. The native name is
kiku-no-hana, the flower that hears. ="
They have had chrysanthemum shows
in Japan since the Emperor Ouda In
stituted the first. in 900 A. d. In the
mikado's garden are chrysanthemums
that measure sixteen inches in diane
ter and often on account Of their
weight require artificial support. The
plants are sometimes treated so as to
produce on one stem blossoms of three
distinct colors. for instance. yellow,
garnet and coral pink. To deprive the
Japs OF flowers would be to take the

At It's close, a Republican Or
ganization was chosen, together
with a Republican representative
to the state meeting. President
Gillenwaters Immediately raised
large sized kick, and, together
with a few Democrats whom
he had rallied overturned the Or
ganization, and replaced the Re-
publicans with Democrats. 1t is
supposed that the purpose was to
send a Republican delegate to the
State meeting, who would vote
for Republicans clerk of the

Ivy Walker of Mound Valley. near Elko,

ditch that runs past the house The

supposed that he stumbled and fell into
the ditch.
Herbert Christie, the former Reno
City Clerk. who remained in Reno to at
tend the funeral OF bis father. may not

friends in Reno are circulating petitions
to the Board OF Pardons asking for his

punished enough aud that his aged
mother and young sisters need his
support.
Tons Of earth completely buried the
head and shoulders Of Dudley Feeney. a
miner employed in the ward shaft at
Virginia City on Monday. and caused
almost instant death. When dug from
the pile Of dirt and rocks which crushed
out his existence it was found that not a
bone in Feeney's body was broken and
that there was not a scratch On the re-
mains to indicate that he had met a sud-
den and violent death. Feeney and his
partner, Jim" Herrin. were easing
timbers on the 2l00 tank station of the
Ward shaft. Feeney reached behind
some tagging for the purpose of removing
a block. Suddenly the tagging above
him gave way and the mass OF rock
crashed down on the unfortunate young
fellow.
