DRUG STORES STILL
SELL A FEW DRUGS
Larger Part of Their Busi-
ness, However, Is Along
Other Lines.
CAUSE is DISCUSSED
Proprietors Are Simply COM
plying With Demands
of the Public.
CAUSE is DISCUSSED

1t is because the necessities OF the
public demand II that many drug stores
now carry for sale a wide diversity Of
articles not long ago unknown TO that
trade, according to one well versed in
the lntricacles of the business.
In the ordinary course of business evo-
luton the drug store has kept well to
the fore. is the view OF one local drug
glst AS the department store has de-
veloped and widened its scope so has
the drug store enlarged and diversified
It's stock In both cases the public de-
mand has been the chief factor, AS
the department store has found 1t neces-
sary TO carry toilet articles and tewelry.
TO say nothing of numerous other arti-
cles once considered foreign TO its ac-
uvities, so has the drug store met the
wants of the shopper in its way by put
ting In stock things that at one time had
no place as part of the pharmacist g
stock in trade.

Cause of Evolution.

First OF all, It is pointed out. the drug
store is now the convenience shop" OF
the citizen. 1t is open always until mid
night, and in several instances all night
whereas other stores generally close at s
O'Clock in the evening. Many little things
are wanted In a hurry at night, and the
drug store people at one time had their
clerks make note Of everything that was
demanded and not kept in stock. Through
this system was gained a knowledge Of
what the public wanted after o'clock
in the evening. and' these things were
eventually put in stock.
Some persons consider IL strange, for
instance, that a drug store will carry
travellers handbags-and that is about
the largest article in bulk carried by It
The reason is this. Occasionally would
come into town in the evening a traV-
eler who would WANT some toilet articles,
To the drug store he would go. and hav-
ing made his purchase he would inquire
where he could get n handbag as he
found that he needed one to add to his
travelling innpedlmenta. The hand bag
shop was closed and this experience hav-
ing been many times repeated In the
drug store career, the handbag was put
in stock

Water Bill Enacted.

Al the recent session of the Ne
vada state legislature a new wate,
bill was enacted into law whicf
follows along similar lines TO ths
Oregon law However, the Ne
yada law gives the state engiuee,
full power TO decide and adiudi
cate the water rights of his state
The "Oregon law allows 10,
three men, one of them the statt
engineer, to act as board or com
mission in deciding the waite,
rights. The Nevada water userl
have taken exception to this fea
ture of the Nevada law and havt
forced an injunction against tbt
state engineer, w. NJ. Kcarnev. IN

the bill NAV be tested through ths

settled II is proposed to make 4

Effect on Stream.

All of these conditions have a
tendency to decrease the eff
cheney of the stream and allow
large losses both by seepage
and evaporation. In order to as.
certain Just how much these losses
amount to il is proposed that Che
state engineer aud water users OF
the Humboldt river cooperate with
the water resources branch of the
United States geological survey
and install a series of gauglng sta-
tions along the main river and
tributaries and equip the same
with automatic gates that will re,
cord the level of the water surface
at all periods of the dav aud night
The problem on the Humboldt
river is .arge one. but one which
is worthy of much time and ex-
pense inasmuch as there are sew.
eral hundred thousand acres OF
sapebrush land along the river
which is susceptible TO irrigation.
The water is available for the adj
ditonal area provided storage res
ervoirs are built and that the pres,
ent large losses along the river pc
eliminated by Strengthening tae
river channel and avoiding the
natural sinks.
