Reports from Reno state that %

ment from that city and that the
outbound freight exceeds the in
bound by ten per cent.
Plaster and gypsum shipments
which go through that city from
Mound House are credited as being
the largest shipments Of any one
Kind from one point. These ship
mcnts average eight cars daily and
are rapidly increasing. The Port
land Cement Company is operating
the works to its present full capacity
but arrangements are being made
whereby the plant will be increased

All of this product goes through
this city over the V. & T. and ma

PASTURACE
FOR SHEEP

A number of bands OF sheep are
p%asturing across the river from this
city. They have been driven from
the high hills to the other side of
the river where good winter feed IS
found.
The Pine Nut range has been for
years a favorite winter pasture for
sheep, as the snow is Generally light
and it is claimed that it is also much
warmer in that direction.
The fact that the deer leave the
Sierras every fall and migrate t.
the Pine Nut section seems to carry
ont this theory. They evidently are
directed by nature as to the warln
spots on earth.

Moisture Necessary to Health.

The bloom on the cheeks Of British
maidens is said to be due to the fact
that they live amid moist atmosphere
all the year round. Conversely. the
pallid and saffron tint Of the average
American complexion is, to very
great extent, the outcome Of the over
heated apartments in which fashion
and builders condemn Us to pass our
days and nights.
It would therefore seem that there
is q real need Of q radical revolution
in our system of house-heating. Our

to practice, are woefully wrong and

blunders. Until we exchange our SUI
