GREAT VALUE OF SODA LAKE
Both In a Commercial Sense
And For Pleasure. Will
Be Fine Resort.

Eugene Griswold, of Oakland, who
formerly resided in Wadsworth and
who has owned store in the old rail-
road town for years, was in Fallon
Thursday and Friday on business con-
nected with the clearing of the title of
his Soda Lake property north of town.
Not only does Mr.. Griswold own the
lake, but all the land surrounding it.
The lake is one of the natural wonders
of this section, being mile in diame-
ter and of great depth. 1t carries in
solution something like 500, 900 tons of
soda, which under the old system of
working returned clear profit of $40
per ton, the average gross sale figure
being about $22. Lately however, the
introduction of the government irriga-
tion system in this valley has brought
the lake level to heighth that no long,
er allows of the operation of the vat
system on the lake shores, which are
about 100 feet below the level Of the
desert. The only method by which the
lakes soda can be reclaimed 10 by
pumping the highly impregnated water
to refining vats on the crest of the rim
that surrounds the body of water,
something that Mr.. Griswold does not
care to do.
He has put in claim for damages
against the government and seems to
have fair chance.to realize upon his
claim, as soon as he can clearly eetab4
lish his title 60 the property. This Is
one reason why he has been exertina
himself lately to clearly establish his
ownership.
Up to recent times, Mr.. Griswold op.
Grated his plant at Soda Lake, secur.
ing on an average of 500 tons Of soda
annually, which returned him q clear
profit of $4,000, an income that was cut
of short when the irrigation waters of
this project began to seep into the lake.
Mr.. Griswold believes that the lake
will eventually prove to be the object.
i've point of many pleasure seekers,
and the establishment of a resort on
its shores is one of his plans, which he
hopes to consummate. The waters con.
tain more solid matter than those of
the Great Salt Lake and swimming in
them is very easy. On the banks of
the lake are numerous cold water
springs, one furnishing an almost uu.
limited supply of sulphur water.
While in Fallon last week, Mr.. Girls.
void stated to this paper that he would
allow boating club all necessary priv
ileges for the full enjoyment Of this
sport, and local people who care for q
days. respite from town and hot weather
could not do better than act upon his
suggestion and invest in a gasoline
launch for Soda lake.

POPULAR YOUNG FOLKS
Are Married In Reno Last
Friday Night.

The futures of two of our popular
young people were united Friday even
ing when Miss Lizzie dollhouse be-
came the bride of Irving Sanford. In
cidently two of Churchill county's pio-
neer families were united. The cere-
mony that made this happy couple
man and wife was performed in the
Hotel Mccormick parlors in Reno.
whence they had gone on Fridays
motor armed with the proper creden-
tials. The officiating minister was
Rev. Trout. the Reno Congregational
pastor. The ceremony occurred
promp ly at $50 p. M, IN the presence
of the following: Mr.. and Mrs. r. X.
May, the groom's brother-ln-law and
sister, Mrs. Victoria Bailey, the brides
sister. Mrs. Peacock and Mr.. and Mrs.
Mccormick.
Both bride and groom in this instance
were oorn and raised in Churchill coun-
ty. Both have earned in round meas
ure the large public esteem that is
theirs, the bride having served Fallon
for several years as deputy postmis-
tress. The groom is employed as an
expert mechanic on the Coffrin d
Phelps auto truck and is possessed OF
both industry and probity.
Their home coming Saturday was
sigalized by a very pretty reception
rendered them by the parents of the
groom, Mr.. and Mrs. w w. Sanford,
to which were invited the relatives OF
the contracting parties. In all, 2S were
present and congratulations and re-
freshment4 featured the eveninr.

WATER is To Be CONSERVED
Reclamation Officials Issue a
Warning In Circular To Lo-
cal Water Users.
DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR
United STATES RECLAMATION SERVICE

DEfAhImENl Of The iN1EklOk
UNITED STATES RECLAMATION SERVICE
Fallon, New, June %, 1912.
To All Water Users:
The water supply is now rapidly dim
inishing and there is good reason to
suppose that within a few weeks, little
or no water will be available for DIS
tribution. For purposes of economy OF
water and efficiency of service, the
published rotation schedules will be ad-
hered to so far as this can be done with
equal Justice to all. Ii is hoped that
there will be an opportunity for all to
irrigate their hay land after the first
crop has been harvested, but the rivers
are falling SO rapidly that this appears
somewhat doubtful. In apportioning
the water hereafter, il will be the
practice to notify water users on what
day their run will begin, setting nc
time for end of run unless it should be
for "a hour period or less.
/. That requests for the delivery of
water for this second crop irrigation
be sent to the Fallon office at once il
possible.
2. That the request be for the lar
gest head and for the shortest run
practicable.
3. That arrangements be made to
irrigate garden, young alfalfa and mis-
cellaneous crops during this major ir-
rigation.
As water becomes scarce, it will be
necessary for the purpose of making
what there Is go as far as possible, TO
restrict the use to limited districts op-
Grating one lateral at time.
II, therefore, you receive notice from
this Office that the run you have re-
quested for certain time has been al
lotted to you at another time you will
know that this change has been made
not arbitrarily but with view to secur.
Ing the greatest good to the greatest
number. In all cases, however, an
effort will be made to conform TO your
wishes and convenience.
Delivery of water to individuals will
be based upon the area to be irrigated
and the amount previously used. Dur
ing the period from May lst to July lst
the rivers were carrying enough to
supply all demands irrespective of
acreage or previous allotments. In
making allotments for the remainder
OF the season, therefore, ii will be the
practice not TO consider overruns during
this period of plentiful supply as a
reason for limiting future apportion-
ments.
Very truly yours,
II. w. MAREAN.

DIES IN VIEW or HEIGHDORS
Cleas Lundgren, Consumptive,
Passed Away Saturday With
out Previous Warning.

Cleas II. Lundgren, a late arrival in
this section, was found dead in the yard
OF the tent house, just north of the Joe
JARVIS home, Friday afternoon, shortly
after the noon hour. Lundgren came
to Fallon about month ago. seeking a
change of climate for his health, but he
steadily grew worse, the dreaded tuber-
culosls having a firm hold on his consti-
tuition. He rented the Blair tent house
IN the Verpank addition and had come
to be known to his neighbors as a man
OF kindly disposition.
Littleis known of his antecedents be-
yond The fact that he was a native of
Sweden and has mother in Colorado.
Among the effects in bis abode were
found two insurance policies, one issued
by the Woodmen of the World for $1,000
and another by the New York Life In
surance Co., for $4,000. Both designat-
ed the aged mother as the beneficiary,
but 1t Is not known whether the policies
were in force at the time of death.
Deceased was 30 years of age ano
was unmarried. The verdict of the
coroner's jury was that deceased came
to his death from natural causes. He
was seen few minutes prior to his
death by neighbor, to whom he called
for drink of water, which was given
him. At that time he was up and
around and the morning preceding death
had been up town for several hours.
A sum less than 500 was found on his
person, this being his only visible re-
sources. A few days prior to demise,
Lundgren had been looking for q lob of
light work, but was unable to find a
task be could preform.
LundgTen's remains were buried
Saturday, efforts to locate relatives
proving futile. He was buried at the
county's expense.

SUGAR COMPANY PRESIDENT

President Henry Hinze, of the Ne
vada Sugar Company. was here be-
tween trains Monday from his home in
Santa Ana, Cal. He was taken through
the beet fields of the valley by his
brother Fred Hinze, the factory's man
ager, and the progress of local beet cul-
ture was highly pleasing to him. In
fact, he was jubilant and stated that
the seasons work has demonstrated TO
his complete satisfaction the great vir-
tues of our valleys soil for sugar beet
growing.
The growth. he said to date, had
been unusually vigorous, and the only
complaint he could possibly make. had
to do with a restricted acreage. He is
satisfied that the results of this season
will be such in a financial sense that
many others of the land owners in this
project will come over to sugar beet
growing when another year has rolled
around.

VISIT THEIR BIRTHPLACE.
W. w. and G. b. Williams Take
Trip Throughout The East.

w. w. Williams, Churchill county's
representative at the Republican Ma
tional convention at Chicago, returned
home Sunday from his 30-day visit in
the east. During his absence, he visi-
ted the home of his birth and
childhood near Portland, Maine.
Together with his brother G. B. he in.
spected the orchard he helped to plant
over half century ago, and though
many of the trees have died in late
years through lack of attention, some
are still growing vigorously. To go
back to the old homestead was to bring
to mind in reminiscent vein the hap
penings of very eventful life, from
the days when he left the Maine home
to come west So years ago up to the
present time when hard work and for
tuitous circumstances have finally cul-
minated in wealth and affluence.
During their absence in the east the
Williams brothers visited many of the
places of interest, including Niagara
Falls, Portland, Me-, Boston, New
York, Philadelphia and Washing
ton, spending two days in each of the
large cities.
But it was at Chicago that the real
thrills came to w. w. Williams, for he
was in the midst of the fray when Taft
and Roosevelt entertained the Ameri-
can public with the bitterest and most
stubbornly fought contest ever known
in the life of the republic. OF the
more or less sanguinary fray, Mr.. Will
liams has much to say, and sitting as
an instructed Taft delegate, he never
saw reason to be sorry, for he thinks
Roosevelt resorted to highly discredit-
able methods in order to attain his ends
in the convention. And Mr.. Williams
is now doubly sure that the downing of
the dentigerous gentleman has been a
real service to the country at large.
