RECLAIM|NG LAND BY ENERGY

Charley Taylor of Mount ain
House came in from the coast
yesterday where he hal been cal
led as a witness in the Hickey land
suits. H. returned to his holdings
on the morning train.
Mr.. Taylor is one of the men in
Nevada who is carrying out a big
land reclamation project on his
own hook. 1t has mostly been
done by hard work and plenty of
it. He secured thousand acres
Of land that lay below Mounta 10
House. 1t was considered only
worth sheep pasture. Taylor had
his eye on a neglected stream in
the mountains several miles back
of him. He made application for
the waste water and finally re-
ceived his permit. In the mean
time he had dug three miles Of
ditch all by himself, and burned
up fifteen hundred pounds of
giant powder in it's construction,
and last fall he had one of the
best power sites in the section,
which eventually will be turned
to use. Several applications for
the use of his power have been
made and he can turn it to account
at any time.
Mr.. Taylor will this season
have in about two hundred acres
Of land Some of the grain is up
and doing well, while forty acres of
alfalfa will be plan ted within the
nsxt few weeks. 1t has been a
hard struggle but he is on top and
within three year he expects Ito
have the en- tire thousand acre
under cultivation. This has all

HARMLESS CUSTOMS

A New York paper having said
that in the old days American
women did not smoke, the remark
is causing an immense ain cunt of
quarreling through the papers in
New York City.
The fact is that American ladies
did not smoke three score years
ago to any extent. Where women
we're smokers they were women
from across the sea. The writer
was brought up close to a settle
ment of Highland Scotch and it
used to be the admiration of hialife
to go about the neighborheod and
see the old Scotch ladies after a
five o'clock tea. sitting out on the
piazas or lawns, smoking white
pipes they used to smoke three
for penny-and talked. We nave
always had an impression since
that g aelic did not sound exactly
right unless it came from tie lips
of ladies mixed with the smoke of
Black Jack in old fashioned white
clay dudeens. But all that time
the American ladies had a vastly
more Objectionable habit. Almost
the last one of them was a snuff
taker, and when it comes to that,
surely the pipe smoking is cleanlier
and more graceful maitland humt n
nature is about the same always.
The old Puritan days put down a
whole lot Of customs as vices and
with a devoutness much to their
credit, but much TO their discom-
fort the old ladies accepted the
dictum, so did a few of the men.
But after all, the natural re
bound from that on the part of
the children probably accounts for
the great number Of smokers, men
and women, that fill this country
today. And our opinion is that
when young woman or young
wife feels as though she ought to
smoke, as though she would gi i've
a thousand dollars to smoke a
cigarette or pipe, that the best
thing for her to do is to get the
pipe and smoke it. 1t won't hurt
her; it won't hurt anybody else,
and it will tend to convince her
that when person does what he
or she believes to be right, that
they are not offending God, not
offending good taste, not advertis-
ing themselves as lost souls; but
they are having more comfort than
the other wives and they are TAX
ing an even chance Of getting to
Heaven after all.-Goodwin's
