MEAT IN DITCH
Meat Car on Milwaukee Leaves the
Track Near kenwood Last
Friday Night.
BRAKE BLOCK CAUSES ACCIDENT
Thirty or Forty Men Work All Night
Repairing Track and Moving
Meat Into Another Car. :.

Kenwood, May 2-Special-Quite
railroad accident occurred last Fri
day night at about 1890, when one
of the meat cars of freight train
containing about thirteen tons of meat
and lard, left the rails and plunged
down the steep bank into the creek,
around the curve near the first cross
ing north of Kenwood. The cause of
the accident was nearly half mile
north of this place, where one of the
brake blocks unfastened itself and
dropped down on the rails, throwing
the car off the track. For this dis
lance it ran along on the ties, cut
ting some of them in two, until the
curve was reached when it swerved
to the inside into the creek. The Sec
ton men of Kenwood, together with
thirty other men were busy all night
Friday and all day Saturday repair
ing the track and the meat was TAX
en- out and put in another car. One
lucky thing was that no other car
was taken off, but the air brakes
setting as soon as the cars un-
coupled probably prevented this. The
car will be lifted out of it's den as
soon as the derrick arrives.

Der of seeds is counted out from the
sample sent for test and these seeds
are placed between folds of blotting
paper and laid in the germinator.
In four days a count is made and
the number of seeds sprouted is re-
recorded. The sprouted seeds are
removed and further counts are
made in T. 10 and possibly IA DAYS.
The last count indicates the total
number that failed 70 germinate or,
to put it in the other way, the total
number that may be called good
seed. The four day count is an i'm
portant one also, in that it indicates
the quickness with which the seed
respon to growth conditions. The
whole is reckoned on a percen-
tage basis.
A need for these tests exist. For
the past two weeks some tests of
seed actually sold and sown in Ne
vada have been made. The average
result to date has been 50 per cent
This would indicate that 81 per cent
of the seed sold was no good. Some
of the samples germinated as low
as rs per cent; one was so old that it
would rot germinate at all These
tests will be continued all winter,
and report in the spring would
make interesting reading.
1t is not much trouble to enclose
a small handful of garden or field
seed and mail it to the department.
and il may save many dollars. Even
if the test is only on few onion
seeds used for table use, it may
save much disappointment, even if
the loss is small. And Nevada
should be a grand old place wherein
to get rid of old onion seeds.
Growers should avail themselves of
this free opportunity to protect
themselves. The same invitation is
0 zen to retail dealers who handle
seeds and who can thus ascertain tne
quality of what they buy from
wholesalers what they offer to
their customers.

RAILROAD TO
I AP BUCKSKIN

One survey has already been made
for an extension of the Copper Belt
railroad from the terminal of the
line at Ludwig to the Kennedy Con-
solidated mine at Buckskin, says the
Yerington Times. This survey leaves
the main line of the road some dis
tance south of Ludwig, near Delphi
Springs, and runs lower down than
the main line, passing between the
town Tof Morningstar and the old
pump station on the flat. The Ken
nedy Con. mine is about six miles
west of Ludwig, across Alkali flat,
but the road will follow the bench
land around to the north, making a
horseshoe, SO as to bring the track
close to the workings of the mine.
This will make a nice, easy grade.
Just when work on the road will be-
gin has not been announced, but the
date is probably not far off.

Douglas secured an option on the
Kennedy Con. by taking over the
stock in the company owned by
Messrs. Pitt and Campbell, some
100000 shares. This week the Ne
vada Douglas secured the holdings
of Buckskin Kennedy in the prop
erty, some 260, 900 shares. Kennedy
is the original locator of the mine.
For some time his whereabouts We're
unknown, but he was finally locat-
ed on ranch in California. The
Nevada-Douglas people now own
practically all of the stock ,of the
l 10000 shares in the corporation,
100000 being treasury stock. They
have make payments on the prop
erty and will, without doubt, take
up the bond when the time comes.
The movement of the railroad
company is an indication of such an
outcome.

Called By
Death

Harry Jensen, who for years has
suffered with epilepsy, died We'd
nesday evening at the home of his
parents in Gardnerville. He had
been in poor health for the past few
months and during that time had
been at the portals of the beyond
more than once. His end was ex-
pected at any time since specialists
had pronounced the case as hopeless.
Deceased was the eldest son of
Mr.. and Mrs. A. Jensen and was
born in Trinity county, Cal. Novem-
18th, 1885, thus being 27 years of
age. Practically his entire life was
spent in Gardnerville.
Harry, with all his suffering, was
patient and uncomplaining and ac-
cepted his illness with unfiinching
fortitude. In life he accepted things
as they came and wassa quiet, un-
assuming young man of many noble
qualities and his death is a sad blow
to his relatives and many warm
friends.
Besides his parents he is survived
by two brothers, Russell and Arendt
Jensen.
The family have the profound
sympathy of the community in their
hour of sorrow.

NEW PLAN TO
HELP FARMERS

The Agricultural experiment
station at Reno is in a position to
perform a new service for the agri-
culturists of Nevada by trying to
protect growers from loss through
the purchase of had seed. 1t has
for some time been the subject Of
more than definite suspicion that
Nevada was being made the dump
ing ground for poor seed. BY poor
seed is meant impur. seed. lacking
in vitality. Nevada has no large
seed distributing firm and the big
percentage of field and garden seed
used has been ordered from catalog
by mail. The result of these condi-
tions was only to be expected. Pre-
vented in their own states by local
seed control legislation, from sell
ing poor stock, the firms would na-
turally welcome an opportunity to
realize on stuff that would otherwise
be a dead loss, and figuratively
speaking. Nevada is the goat.
In the case Of field seeds, where
the grower is ordering in quantity,
he is within his rights and is doing a
sane act if he demands samples be-
fore purchasing. Or his order may
state definitely that he wishes only
reasonably pure seed of strong Vi
tally. In either case he should test
the termination power of the seed
instead of risking loss of time by
sowing without such test. He may
test at home in soil or boxes. Now
he may send a small handful in an
envelope addressed to the Agronomy
Department, Agricultural College,
and in two or three weeks a report
as to the strength Of his seed will be
mailed without charge.
The test will be made in the fol
lowing manner: The station is pro-
vided with a termination chamber
capable Of testing at one time 9G
samples in duplicate. In this cham
Der growth conditions of moisture
and temperature are maintained as
nearly as possible. A definite num-

The Ruby Note
Mining Company

The Ruby Note Mining and Mill
ing company is the name of the
latest organized company that has
been formed to exploit the copper
deposits in the Pine Nut district.
Some time ago VIM. Duval locat-
ed several claims in the vicinity of
the Ruby Hill group which is now
under bond to the Gunn-Thompson
company. Development work car
ried on has been very encouraging
and as an outcome the company was
organized to carry on the work.
The company has made arrange
ments to place a churn drill on their
ground and will sink several holes
to determine the values of the ore
at considerable depth.
With the announcement made two
week ago by George E. Gum that
his company would in all likelihood
exercise the bond on the Ruby Hill,
and other work being planned, un-
usual mining activity will be in
progress in the Pine Nut district
next summer.

Artificial Milk
Made From Beans

An artificial milk, which is said
to contain all of the elements of the
best cows milk and be usable for
the same purposes, is being manu-
featured from soya beans, according
to an article in the Journal of the
American Medical Association. 1t
is also stated that this artificial pro-
duct is more digestible than ordi-
nary milk and its cream more nour-
ishing. 1t can be used for all cook
ing purposes and good cheese can
be made from it, but it will not
produce butter. Being germ-free,
it will keep longer than cows milk.
The process of making this soya-
bean milk was discovered by three
Germans, who have spent three
years perfecting the apparatus. The
manufacture is said to be simple,
and the product is always uniform.
1t can be sold at a good profit for
six cents quart. which is cheaper
than milk in many localities.

JAMES Welsh STARVES To
DEATH GUARDING HIS Mine

Coroner krummes and Constable
Ramsay returned from the Sunrise
mining district late last Thursday
night, bringing with them the body
of the man found dead in a cabin in
that locality.
The dead man was a prospectol
by the name of James Welsh, who
had mined in that section for the
past four years. Welsh was last
seen alive about two months ago by
a prospector living some miles dis
tant. Knowing Welsh was without
funds to secure provision for winter
he invited him to come down to his
cabin as he had a good supply of
grub on hand. Welsh answered
that he would make out some way
and the men parted.
Welsh, it is said, believed that his
mine was one of great richness and
that enemies were trying to gain
possession of the mine. Years of
solitaire life in the hills and dreams
of great riches that were to come to

him had turned his head. To guard
his mine he hung on day after day.
When his last morsel of. food was
gone he would not leave and starved
to death guarding a hole in the
ground that has little or no value.
When found, he.was lying on his
bunk, hands folded on his chest just
as though he had been laid out for
burial. He had been dead for prob
ably six weeks and his body was in a
mummyfed condition.
A search of the cabin disclosed
the fact thatthere was not a bit of
grub about. The dead mans feet
were tied up in sacks and no boots
or shoes were found about the
place.
By letters found on his person it
was termed that he had a brother
living at but the Off
cials have been unable to get in
communication with him.
An inquest was held here Friday
and the remains were buried in the
Garden cemetery.

Jane Powell Has
Auto Accident

Wednesday morning while. on his
way to Gardnerville from Antelope
Valley, James Powell had a narrow
escape when his automobile left the
road in the canyon just above A.
Settelmeyer's ranch, and turned
over. Mr.. Powell's wife and three
children were with him and were
thrown clear of the car. 1t was
necessary to get team of horses
from the Settelmeyer ranch to pull
the machine back into the road.
The heavy snow made it impossi-
BILE to tell the exact location of the
bridge in the canyon and the wheels
on one side of the car missed the
bridge. Mr.. Powell and family are
indeed fortunate that they escaped
from the accident without injury.

game was fast and exciting, men,
bers Of both teams making excell-

Yerington lads at every stage Of the
game, but this is not saying that
the Yerington boys did not play a
good game. The score is given be-
low and the goals as made by the
several players. While some of the
players are not accredited with
throwing goals. it does not.indicated
that they played a poor game. Their
team work made it possible for the
goals to be made and each player
took an active part in each play
