Spud Production

lust what the potato production OF
Mason Valley was for the last season we
are unable to estimate, but there were
shipped out over the Nevada Copper
Belt railroad last fall, winter and spring
2l6 cars of the tubers, or 5,42l3 tons.
This means 8, So, 900 pounds, or over
81 600 sacks of ll0 pounds each, and at
the average price of SIS per ton the
value of the shipment would be S6l 5S7.
This is not the full crop of the valley,
as many spuds were hauled by wagon
from the lower end of the valley and
shipped direct from Wabuska, on the
S. p. Taking into consideration what
is consumed at home, it is safe to say
that the spud crop of the valley was
close to 500 600 in valuation

Nearly a Blaze

Thursday forenoon fire alarm
brought everybody i'll town to Burner 5
store, where blaze was found to be
crawling up the outside back wall of
the building. The blaze had a fairly
good start but the building is low and a
few buckets full of water extinguished
the blaze The fire had started in an
old tin can full of papers, etc, and this
can was standing close to the wall of the
building. How it got there is a mystery
to Mr.. Burner as when he last saw the
can it was standing out i'll the back lot,
and was not one that he used. The sup
position is that children playing with
matches set the contents OF the can on
fire There was no damage to speak of,
the boards of the wall only being charred

And ever afterwards, he says,

In our midst there is a singer
Who, all songs can sweetly sing.
Although her name I'm not 10 tell,
You all have guessed, it's Anna Belle.
Syhil! Well YOU know her;
You always have to show her.
With hair so green
AID eyes so blue,

But one is gone
The other will come
And win his suit just right.

CENSUS OF 1000 YEARS AGO.
First on Record Was in China, In
2042 B. C.-Moses' Census.

There is a record of a census in
China as far back as the year 2042 B.
c., and of one in Japan in the last
century before Christ.
Under the constitution of Scion the
citizens of Athens were divided and
registered in four classes, according
to the amount of their taxable proper.
ty or income.
The Roman census was burdened
with more statistics than any of these
however 1t had it's origin under Ser
vius Tullius, sixth king of Rome, and
was an affair Of much solemnity. Ev-
cry citizen had to appear upon the
| campus Martius and declare upon
oath his name and dwelling and the
value of his property, under the pen
atty of having his goods confiscated.
The most ancient statistical record
of census is found in the Bible. The
census was taken by Moses in the
wilderness, and, as shown by the first
chapter of Numbers, the enumeration
must have been very simple.
Take ye," says this account, 1.-THE
sum Of all the congregations of the
children of Israel, after their families,
by the house of their fathers, with
the number of their names, every
male by their polls; from 20 years old
and upward, all that are able to go
forth to war in Israel; thou and Aaron
shall number them by their armies. .
The women and children and Grip
pies and the old men were not in
cluded neither were the Levites num-
bered among them. Those who did
stand up to be numbered totalled

by Judge Vann recently, according to
a correspondent of the New York Sun,
which reads:
"The legislature of 1852 provided a
mode of changing the name, but that
act was in affirmance and aid of the
common law, to make a definite point
of time at which a change shall take
effect. Without the aid of that act
man may change his name or names.
first or last, and when his neighbors
and the community have acquiesced
and recognized him and his new desig-
nation that becomes his name"
Chief Justice DAILY also says: But
though the custom is widespread and
universal for all males to bear the
names of their parents, there is moth
ing in the law prohibiting a man from
taking another name if he chooses.
There is no penalty or punishment for
so doing, nor any cons equence grow
ing out of it, except so far as it may
lead to or cause a confounding of his
identity"
One has only to recall such assumed
names as Voltaire, Moliere, Dante,
Petrarch, Richelieu, Loyola, Erasmus
and Linnaeus and find himself in i'm
portant company.
So if one chances to have been
named Nebuchadnezzar by an unfeel-
ing parent, or to have inherited such
a patronymic as Bloobs or Surcingle.
one has only to choose Algernon or
Arbuthnot or whatever elegancy ap-
peals to one the most and inform ones
friends of the change. Cassandra
Jilkins may cease to be and Rosalthea
Crowninshield may take her place
