like to get as far from the others as
can. they bother me with so many ques-
tions. You know. I am the only one
in the barnyard that really knows what
is going on in the world. Good-by, Billy
Pig. / am sure you must have dreamed
about the animal that bit your tail and
you Meter not tell that to anyone else
or they will laugh at you"
By the time Billy Pig reached his
garden Mr.. Gobbler was we'll out of
sight, and 1t was we'll for him he was.
for Billy Pig had only to look at the
empty rows to know who had taken the
seed and corn.
He is a greedy old thief" said Billy
Pig. 'he knew this was my garden. 1
believe he would eat me IL he could
swallow me-"
Then a thought came to Billy Pig
and he looked in the direction that Mr..
Gobbler had gone.
He was the one that tried to bite
off my tall" said Billy Pig. That old
gobbler thought my tail was a worm
and tried to swallow 1t. and after eating
al my sc'us, boo L II get
and tell mother. She will chase him the
next time he comes around here
But after thinking 1t over Billy Pig
changed his mind. she will know l
want TO sleep before I finished my
work If l tell her. No, l will have to
get more seed and corn and work all
the afternoon. Oh, dear. l wish / had
not taken a nap
But his mother was coming towards
the garden, and there was no use to
hurry, for he could not cover the empty
rows before she reached there
Il saw old Mr.. Gobbler coming from
this direction" she said, and
thought he might be waiting for you to
go SO he could eat our seed and corn.
Why. what have you been doing all the
morning." she asked when she saw the
empty rows, have you been asleep and
let old Gobbler eat the corn and seed?'
Poor Billy Pig saw he was caught
and he began to cry. He tried to bite
off my tail" he said.
1T would have served you right If he
had" said his mother, looking about
for a stick, now you go to work and
to be sure you work fast" she said
shaking the stick in such a threatening
manner that Pilly Pig worked faster
than ever before in his life and never
once did he stop until IL was finished.

Saw His Ideal On
Moving Picture Screen.

The manager and his stage director
sought a half hours diversion one af-
ternoon by going to a moving picture
show. and 1t waS an amusement that
proved in the end to everyone's advan-
tage-for on the screen Mr.. Hopkins
saw the embodiment of the ideal he
had formed of Miss Gates Gwendolyn.
He wired the Edison studios. and Miss
Dana's address was obtained. In less
than an hour she had seen the manag-
er. the contract had been signed. and
Viola Dana was on her way to her
home in the Bronx. with her part in her
hand.
Quite a simple little story. but one
that is full of interest to those who
have watched this little girls work in
the past as she has appeared on the
screen in hundreds of picture plays.

Moving Picture Star Is Success
In Drama, Declares Julia Murdock

first professional appearance at the
tender age Of three. when she became
attached to the Edison motion picture
studios.
From that time on. for several years.
she was conspicuous figure in the
movies. Thousands saw her and fol-
lowed her work from picture to pic
ture. and these thousands virtually saw
her grow from babyhood to girihood.
Rises From Movies"
To Legitimate Part.
Then came the time when little Miss
Dana moved up from the "movies'' and
became an actress before the footlights
rather than before the camera. Then
presently she acted the role of yergie in
THE Littlest Rebel" and next-well. her
career Is quickly told. She became tine
leading woman" then the star-then
the youngest star in Broadway, when
Arthur Hopkins selected her to play the
role OF Gwendolyn in THE Poor Little
Rich Girl" When the first perform
ance Of this play was concluded. Miss
Dana found that she had become IA
nous.
But this fame and fortune has not
turned little Miss Dana's head in the
least She Is still-t splendidly natural
little girl of the days Of the movies"
She, likes to play with dolls, takes a
wholesome interest in all sorts of
amusemerts. studies her lessons a part
OF each day. and is entirely unspo!led.
The manner in W oh ,,-os -
gagged to play the name part in The
Poor Little Rich Girl is interesting.
When Mr.. Hopkins was searching high
ana low for a girl to play the title
role in the famous Gates play. hundreds
Of Young girls-tall. short, fat. skinny,
pretty, and homeiy-were brought to
the Hopkins offices by fond and a.mir-
ing mothers. and submitted for inspec-
tion. None were selected. however. and
1t was Miss Dana's work IN the movies
that first attracted Mr.. Hopkins atten-
ton to her.

Hamilton News Notes

William HARDWOOD, general manager
and part owner of the Grand Prize mines,
came into town Sunday bringing samples
Of a new find that is one of the biggest,
if not the biggest of recent years. In
following the assure on which the rich
ore was found some time ago the ore
body all at once opened up until now il
is three and a half feet wide and from
seven to eight feet high, and one wall
has not been found yet. This ore. on
former assays, went from 250 to 297 ozs.
in silver. and from 40 to so per cent lead.
The present find will be at least as high
grade as that, and it is a solid body.
Mr.. Harwood is an experienced field
man. He came here last Fall a total
stranger. His associates are W. B.
Bierce and Donald Teasdale of McGill,
who have remained working there, giving
Mr.. Harwood full power to do as he
pleased, and they were certainly justified
in the confidence they had in him. He
first took up the Illapah water rights.
which will supply power to all the mines
and camps around here, and which
should mean a moderate fortune in it.
self. Then be secured from Minoletti &
Lani a group OF mines not considered
very desirable or amounting to much.
His experience. however, made him be-
lieve that they would develop something
good, and the result has justified his
belief. His associates are to be con-
graduated on the man who represents
them here. and the camp Of Hamilton
is also to be congratulated on having
such an experienced man in its midst.
Sunday morning we found that 9 foot
and a half Of snow had fallen during the
night. The day was fine, however, and
it is fast thswing. We hope that this is
the final farewell Of Winter. AS soon as
Spring sets in for good. many people from
the outside will come iocking in here to
invest, and Hamilton should see a very
active Summer. r. A. DEAN.

Wind Mills In Nevada

Where other power is no available in
some sections of Nevada. it has been
found possible to utilize wind mills for
pumping purposes.
On a farm north Of Carson City two
large wind mills, the invention of a Ne.
vada man. are in operation. While
they are in the experimental stage and
require a number Of improvements, the
work they are doing is sufficient to show
their possibilities.
One of those machines. between the
hours of 8 o'clock and noon. handled
over 80, 900 gallons Of water and only a
shortage of water kept tie quantity of
flow to this figure.
A number of orders for these mills
are to be filled during the Summer in
the Carson section and many inquiries
from the district north of Reno are
coming in.
The mill promises to be a big success
whore electric power is not available.

Swiss Cheese Made
From Ewes Milk

Dixon. CAL, April 10.-A new de-
parture in cheese making for this sec
ton of the globe has been inaugurated
ON the Glide ranch on Pntah Greek, six
miles north Of town. A party of Swiss
cheese makers have rented from j. H.
Glide 300 head of sheep and are milking
them. the milk afterwards being made
into cheese. 1t is the intention Of the
men at the head Of the dairy to increase
the number of ewes to 400 as soon as
they can be procured.
At first considerable difficulty wal
experienced IN milking the animals, as
they were not used to such procedure,
but they nave been accustomed to it and
stand quietly.
The milk is poured into large watts and
allowed to curdle, after which It is
made into cheese by the regular pro-
cess and is packed into large barrels for
shipment.
1t is said hat 16 different kinds Of
cheese are being manufactured ON the
place. The product is extremely rich
and is almost pure white in color. The
taste is said to be equal to that of the
finest Eastern cream cheese, but is not
generally used by Americans. However,
it is o great delicacy of the Swiss and a
ready market is found for it.
This is claimed to be but the third
enterprise of its kind in the world.

average will be 100 per cent as against

Another fake news item was given
this paper. in reference to the Buck
horn Mines Company. by a professional
man Of Elko who vouched for the
truth Of the statements. is so distorted
and exaggerated as to bear little SEM
blance to the truth. Mr.. Wingield
himself is authority for the statement
that Mr.. Prick is neither an officer. dir.
ector nor stakeholder in the Buckhorn
Mines Company. The capacity of the
new mill at Buckhorn will not exceed
300 or $50 tons per day. The amount of
ore blocked out is not I'll, 0OO. 900 or any
thing like it. However, there is enough
ore in sight to pay for the mills and
plants at Buckhorn and Beowawe and
give the stockholders a nice profit on
investment.
This paper will not. knowingly. dis
seminate any false or misleading state
ments. The truth is good enough
about Buckhorn and it is q splendid
property. worthy of most favorable
mention. MI. Wingield needs no
boosting. and the fact that he ia the
laading spirit at Buckhorn may have
had something to do with our informant
drawing the long bow, in telling his
story to the Independent man. There
is 40 stock for sale in The Buckhorn
Mines Company, and our informant
probably acted in good faith. but his de-
sire to boost a "good thing" was much
greater than his knowledge of mining at
Bnckhorn. The Independent desires to
tell the truth, all the time, and is glad TO
correct all misstatement of factwhenever
it has knowledge of inaccuracies, which
may happen to creep into these columns.
The whole truth. exact and even handed
justice. and fair treatment will be our
watchward all the time.
