FARMERS ARE UNITED
TO FIGHT BIG SUIT

That the farmers of the Lovelock
Valley are a unit in the injunction
proceedings that have been started
against the Pacific Reclamation Co.,
was evidenced at a meeting held
last week. An assessment of 10
cents an acre on all of the land in
the valley was favorably consid-
cred for the purpose of properly
starting the proceedings. The SEN
timent prevails that there is no al
tentative for the lower appropriation
and consequently the case will be
fought to the last ditch. There are
$4,000 acres of land represented.
A representative of the farmers is
now in Reno and the suit will
probably be filed within the next
few days.-Review Miner.

SHOOTING WILD HORSES
is EASY IN THIS WAY

The shoeing of wild horses is
quite sight, and whenever one is
placed in the sling at the local
blacksmith shops it always draws a
crowd of passersby. Both shops do
a great deal of this kind of work
shoeing many of the unbroken ami
mails of the big freight teams that
haul in all directions from Winnie
mucca. The horse is placed in a
combination stock and swing, blind
folded and all his feet tied SO he
cannot move head or foot. Shoeing
a wild horse in this manner is an
easy matter and the blacksmith is
in no danger of being kicked or
bitten and he does not have to
pound the horse with a rasp or
hammer him because it will not
stand still. and the job is done
without injury to the horse. Hum

JURY SECURED

The district court. which con-
vened on Monday, is hearing the
case of L. l.. Blumenthal VS.. w.
Enger ct al. before a jury. The
jury was secured at 2:30 O'Clock
this afternoon and the defense open
ed their case with a statement from
Attorney Cooke. The case arises from
the administration of the Bernier
case. 1t will be remembered some
seven years ago Bernier and an
other man were murdered while
sleeping under a wagon in a corral in
the lower end of town. Bernier
had several hundred dollars in his
pocket when he retired with his
companion. This money was taken
by the murderers. Bernier was
the owner of a freight team and
the estate was administered upon
by Enger. Later on he drew the
money. some $4,000, out of the
bank, and. it is alleged, two attor-
neys received a portion of it, and
decamped for pastures anew. The
heirs are now asking for a hearing.

A HARMLESS WAY TO
I DARkEN The HAIR
Gray Hair Vanish--A Remedy
for All Hair Troubles.

Who does not know the value
of Sage and Sulphur for keeping
the hair dark, soft and glossy and
in good condition? AS a matter of
fact, Sulphur, is a natural element
of hair, and deficiency of it
the hair is held by many scalp spe-
cialists to be connected with loss
of color and vitality of the hair.
Unquestionably there is no better
remedy for hair and scalp troubles,
especially premature grayness, than
Sage and Sulphur, if properly pre-
pared.
The Wyeth Chemical company of
New York put out an ideal prep
aration of this kind, called Wyeth S
Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy, in
which Sage and Sulphur are COM
bined with other valuable remedies
for keeping the hair and scalp in
clean, healthy condition.
If your hair is loosing its color
or constantly coming out, or If you
are troubled with dandruff or dry,
itchy scalp, get a fifty-cent bottle
of Yeth's Sage and Sulphur from
your druggist, use it according to
the simple directions, and see what
a difference a few. days treatment
will make in the appearance of your
hair.
All druggists sell it, under guar
antee that the money will be re-
funded If the remedy is not ex-
actly as represented.
