While the motor car Is taking the
place OF the horse in the cities the
gasoline engine is accomplishing much
the same result In the country. Ma.
chine power comes very near being the
most important factor In successful,
scientific agriculture today, and while
motor or steam hauling has been gen.
orally adopted only by large planters.
practically every modern farmer uses
the gasoline engine for driving machin-
cry and doing the bulk Of the heavy
drudgery on the farm.
That machine power rapidly Is TAX.
ing the place Of horse or mule power
Is shown by the fact that almost all
the implements shown by manufactur.
ers and wholesalers at a convention Of
implement dealers in Kansas City
were equipped with attachments for
operating them by engine power.
That Is true particularly Of the heay.
Ter farm machinery, some OF which
now Is SO ponderous that 1t scarcely
could be moved by the number of
horses that conveniently could be
hitched to 1t.
The points that recommend the
gasoline engine to the farmer are Its
wide utility and the fact that Its
diet Of gasoline Is less costly than
the draught animals diet Of corn, oats
and hay. Since the farmer has come
to accept the engine as farm inple'
ment and to understand Its operation
he has applied its power in many In
genious ways probably never dreamed

Denies Report of the

Reports OF several kinds have
been circulated during the past se\

ship OF the Nevada State Prison.
Warden Cowing. on entering the
place declared that he did not desire
the position and would far sooner re-
main in the office with Secretary OF

fact the place had been rendered

back into the office. \ close friend
of Mr. Dickerson stated to-day that
Mr.. Dickerson would not accept the
position under any circumstances as
he had other business in view and
that he regarded it out of his calling

tensihed the report that something
was doing.
Mr.. Cowing undoubtedly made one
of the best men in the Capitol, as he
is thoroughly qualified for such i
responsible and clerical position.
Should he go back Mr.. Brodigan will
at least rest easy.
While it is all rumor. yet there
must be some fire where there is so

DRIVING
A WATER
TUNNEL
For the Reclamation
of Arid Lands

Frank Wildcs, who owns a cOnsld-
cradle acreage OF land south OF this
city is endcavoring to supply water
by tunnels run into the hill west OF
the old Holbrook place. During the
past two months he has kept crew
Of men employed on the main tunnel
and some very satisfactory results
have followed At present he has
about 20 inches of water flowing
from this tunnel, and it j. conceded
TO be the drycst year on record. As
the tunnel is advanced more water
i developed. and he i in hopes OF
cutting several other streams that
will increase this flow to point
where it will be OF considerable rec
lamation value.
The plan is to reservoir the water,
as he has number of natural sites
that are close at hand. At present
he has developed water enough for
the first ranch and is now looking
for a quantity for that across the
road or to the east Of his tunnels.
This land has been tested and
proven the best that is in the valley
All that is necessary is the water and
It will mean a big thing for this sec
ton He developed number of
fine wells on the fiat, but figures that
il gravity water can be secured that
it i far in advance OF pumps or any
other means OF lifting water. His
experiment in this line i watched
with keen interest by a number who
would gladly secure Il tract if water
could be made available.
During the process Of running his
tunnel couple OF quartz veins have
been encountered. One shows good
values. He expects to continue the
development work both for the
quartz prospect and the water that
is coming in From all appearances
the water is the best gold mine in
sight and he is winner any way it is
figured.
