Threshers
Work Side
By Side

For the first time in Carson Val
ley, two threshing machines were
set side by side last Saturday and
the straw from both machines was
'blowed' to the same stack. This
happened at the Sage ranch of the
Dangberg Land & Live Stock COM
pany. The Broekliss threshing out
fits had been working on the grain
company for nearly two weeks and
had completed their task with the
exception of one hundred acres
which had been cut with a binder
and shocked in the field. The ma
chimes were set close by and sixteen
teams were put to work hauling the
grain to the mawes of the threshers.
1t made a harvest scene, which if
thrown onto a moving picture
screen and shown through the East
ern states, would do more to adj
vertise Nevada as an agricultural
state than forty publicity commits
S ons could do. Homeseekers care
very little about character of soil
and technical rot, but they are inter-
e ted in results such as goes to make
up the every day farm life in Car
son Valley and other agricultural
districts of Nevada.
j. j. Brockliss, who owns the
threshers. states that this the first
season that threshing on the Dang
berg ranches has been completed in
August.

MAKE SHIPMENT OF LEAD
ORE FROM NEW FIND

Albert Evant, one of the locators
of valuable group of claims near
the Morning Star property in AL
pine county, was in town Monday
experimenting the shipping of
thirty sacks of galena ore. This ore
carries 81 per cent lead, S4 in gold
and So in silver. This gives the
ore value of S89 per ton.
Since the discovery of this prop
erty last May, Mr.. Evans and his
partner have been hameting away
and have developed the property to
a considerable extent. A chunk of
pure ssgalena ore, weighing about
so pounds, which was taken from
one of the two lodges by Mr.. Evans,
was exhibited about town and at
tracted considerable attention.
The owners of this property be-
lieve that they have the makings of
paying mine and the ore just
shipped would substantiate their
belief.

The Improvement Club has spared

bers have every reason to be proud
of the distinction thus earned for
the comm anity and Carson Valley

and progress of our PEOPLE in a con-
vincing and updispueable manner.
The building is 105 feet in length by

IMPORTANT
MINING DEAL
MASON SMELRER COMPANY
BONDS RUBY HILL "COPPER"
PROPERTY.

What is believed to be the most
important mining deal ever trans
acted in this county was put through
this week when R. C. Walker bond
ed the Ruby Hill Copper mine to
the Mason Valley Mines and Smelter
company. j. Labarth, representing
the smelter company was here We'd
nesday aad closed the deal with Mr..
Walker for his interest and the two
men then went to Reno for the pur-
pose of taking up the balance of
stock which is held by people of that
town. The price named for the
Ruby Hill is not known.
1t was but few weeks ago that
Mr.. Walker shipped a carload of ore
to the Mason Valley smelter which
attracted the attention of the
smelter people. They sent experts
to examine the mine and as result
the property was bonded.
1t is understood that a big force
men will be put to work on the
Ruby Hill just as soon as conditions
will permit.

MILLION AND a HALF
SHEEP ON NEVADA RANGES

Nevada people run more than
100000 sheep on the ranges of the
state. 1t is considered the finest in
the United States. Less than one
per cent of the sheep is infected-a
record that stands almost without a
parallel in the world. That the
sheep of the state are the finest is
evidenced by the fast that they
bring top prices in all markets, and
are especially sought by eastern
buyers, who maintain representa-
tives in Nevada throughout the
year. Prices are going up, in KEEP
ing with the excellent grade of the
fleecy focks that feed on the hills of
this most favored sheep raising reg
ion of the United States.

F. McFaul
Has Leg
Cut OFF

Fred McFaul of Lake Valley, and
we'll known in this section, had his
leg amputated Monday. The opera
ton was performed at Carson and
was necessary to save the young
mans life, blood poison having set
in. He stood the ordeal well and is
rapidly recovering.
A month or so ago young McFaul
cut his leg with an AK and at the
time paid no particular attention
to the injury, believing it to be of
minor consequence. The cut soon
developed alarming symptoms and
he was taken to Carson for treat
ment.

influx OF MORMANS TO
EASTERN NEVADA

Some time ago the first Stake of
the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter
Day Saints was organized in Clark
county, and at that time it was
stated that the members of that or
ganization had formed large settle
ments in Clark and Lincoln counties.
Now comes the news that they are
colonIzing Elko and Humboldt
counties. Only recently a number
of the church officials from Salt
Lake City secured possession of the
Sparks-Harrold ranch in Elko
county, consisting of 100000 acres,
and now they have secured possess
ion of the Harold ranch, on Quinn
river, in Northern Humboldt county
with 80, 900 acres; the Thomas Mel
son ranch at Stone House, consisting
of $4,000 acres; the Crocker proper
ty near Promitory, consisting of 73,
900 acres, and a number of other
properties, making their holdings in
the state close to 100000 acres.
1t is estimated that within two years
the 'Mormons' will hold the bal
ance of power in this state and will
be able to control all elections.

Terrier
Waits Release Of Master
From Jail At Louisville

Louisville, Ky, Sept. 23--Sitting on
the steps at the Jefferson County Jail,
silently scanning the face of every
prisoner that enters or leaves, Is a
little white fox terrier. On the inside
of the big bars is Sam Brown, the
lonly master that she has ever known,
and Fannie, AS the Deputies at the
jail call her, IS waiting for him to be
released from the custody of the law.
For two days and two nights the
little animal has stood guard on the
Outside. Threats aud coaxing alike
nave failed to cause her to leave her
post of voluntary duty.
When the Deputies at the Jail saw
that Fannie was not to be coaxed
or scared away they brought out food
and gave II to her.
They respect her devotion and will
see that she does not suffer until her
master Is released.
