Suffers Serious Burns.

Lewis, nine year old son of Mr..
and Mrs. Peach Downs, suffered seri-
GUS burns Tuesday evening of last
week at the home place south of
town, when a coal oil can, contain
ing a small amount of oil exploded
after he had thrown it on fire some
distance from the house, the explo-
sion following throwing the hot oil
on the unfortunate boys face and
body. The burns that followed were
deep and general over his face and
body. So much so that for time il
vas feared that he might lose his
life, bat the Improvement in his con-
dition has been such since that it is
believed that he will recover.
DR.. G. l.. Dempsey rendered medi-
cal aid to the boy and has succeed
ed in largely ameliorating the dread
full condition resulting from the
burning oil. Lewis is a bright little
lad, highly esteemed by all who know
him. His misfortune is generally re-
gretted.

THE SUGAR COMPANY TANGLE
Seems to be About Solved And
1913 Campaign Will be Sat
isfactorily Conducted.

The Nevada Sugar Company af-
iairs are gradually being adjusted
under the regime of a temporary re-
celPership. l. II. Kent, designated
last week as the guiding genius to
handle the local sugar affairs, is in
receipt of encouraging adviees from
the eastern interests and it now
seems certain that the end of the
week will see the annoyances and
complexities of the embrogIio dispos-
ed OF and a consequent clarifcation
or a situation that has been nerve
destroying to the men upon whom
has deyolved the heavy tasks Incl
dent upon bringing order out of
chaos.
There will be no objection upon
the part of the Michigan bond and
stockholders to the plan of issuing
preferential receivers certificates.
which will take precedence over any
other form of claim of debt. These
certificates will warrant the coming
from hiding of sufficient hiding of
sufficient capital TO conduct the fac

essary funds to conduct the cam

Wylde-aiaxwell.

Two of Fallon's young people were
made extremely happy Saturday
when County Clerk C. l.. Noble is
sued a license to wed in favor of
Miss Josephine Maxwell and Grover
Wylde, though truth to tell the
words of Rev. Spaulding that made
them man and wife, pronounced Sun
day evening in the Baptist church
in the presence of a few intimate
friends and relatives were more por-
tentious and carried a greater de-
gree of happiness for the parties to
this lifelong contract.
The ceremony was simple and
brief and was performed in the pres
ence of the following: John b. Max
we'll, brother of the bride, Mr.. and
Mrs. S. r. Marean, Mrs. Helen Cole
man and Mrs. c. j. Kelsey. Follow
ing the ceremony Mrs. Kelsey pre-
sided as hostess at a delightful we'd
ding supper, prepared and served at
the Overland hotel.
The bride in this instance is one
of the really charming young ladies
of Fallon. Having made her home
here for several years with her
brother, j. b. Maxwell, of the recla-
nation Office force, she has by her
rare individuality and gracious,
ladylike manners, won for herself a
warm place in the hearts of many
friends. Mr.. Wylde is an employe
of the |. II. Kent store and is favor
ably known to large list of ac-
quaintances who have been congrat-
ulating him on his success in matri-
monial endeavor Mr.. and Mrs
Wylde will reside on Williams ave-
nue. indefinitely, though eventually
they will probably go to Forrest City
Ark, the groom's boyhood home
where he has substantial business in
terests.

chokes, apples, peaches, pears, and
grapes and a multitude of other
things all have representation for
many varieties in each of the classes.
So many in fact that the display Is
bewildering to the observers and we
hazard a guess that the judges are
facing a difficult task In the award
ing of the many cash prizes. Inas-
much as the exhibits are labeled only
by numbers and it would be difficult
to secure correct list of exhibitors
until after the award of the prem
iums have been made, this paper will
not publish these matters in detail
until a corrected list can be had.
This list will appear In the next is
sue of the Standard.
In its other features, the fair has
been made to keep pace with it's
agricultural department. In the
stock sheds the great draft horses
and the shetland ponies meekly
MUNICH their forage, while particu-
lar attention has been given to
representation of the dairying cat
tie Jersey and Holstein and Dur
ham vie with one another in the milk
tests that are being made daily,
morning and evening, while a milk
ing machine attracts considerable at
tention as it relieves the herd of cows
of their milk surplus. The poultry
and swine exhibits are also excellent
and are from many project farms.
The horse racing commenced yes
terday afternoon with entries from
different parts of Nevada. This coun-
ty being a breeding place for clean
limbed trotters, PAGERS and runners
from the earliest days of settlement
promises to make it difficult for out
siders to take more than due
proportion of the racing meet purses.

FAIR OPENED AUSPICIOUSLY
Grouping of Products, Exhibit
of Farm Stock and Racing
Meet the Best Ever.

The 1913 Truckee-C Carson fair
was formally opened Monday Ex-
hibits were received from the farm
ers until noon yesterday, and not un-
til then was the magnificent farm
products display, tastefully grouped,
complete. OF the farmers in the pro-
ject, more than one in five brought
exhibits to the fair and placed them
in competition for prizes. To be ex-
act 115 project agriculturists are in
line for awards, for this number
acted in eonsonanee with the fair
officials in making of the fair the
grand success it is generally conced-
ed to be.
1t is agreed by all who have visit
ed the various departments consti-
tuting the 1913 Truckee-Carson fair
that it is superior in its every detail
to anything of the kind seen in Fal-
Ion. There are those who insist
that so far as agricultural exhibits
are concerned it is away and beyond
In showings to the farm exhibits at
the recent state fair In Reno. In
this opinion Renoites here viewing
the fair concur.
In comparative sense the 1913
farm products on exhibit far out
strip exhibits representative of the
endeavor of previous seasons, They
show more plainly than words can
tell the progress that is being made
in agriculture within this project
They testify eloquently to the pains
taking effort that is being put forth
to conquer the desert and by the
same token they furnish ample proof
of the adaptability of the soils and
climate of this section to a wonder
fully wide range of farm products
From peanuts and sweet potatoes to
the hardest varieties of products,
every known variety of plant life
known to agriculture has representa-
ton.
And particularly praiseworthy are
the sweet potatoes, the apples, and
grapes and peaches. These products
are on exhibit in plenty and of such
character that warrants the state
ment that some day this project
will produce a surfeit of these tooth
some articles for export.
The exhibits of the market garden
ers and of the farmers are distinct,
It being deemed unfair to place one
in competition with the other. With
the exception of diversity there is
little to choose, however, for there is
wonderful uniformity of quality
this season. Melons, spuds, corn,
wheat, barley, oats, alfalfa, beans,
squashes, pumpkins, tomatoes, cab
bage, egg plant, cauliflower, arti-

THE BOARD OF EQUALIZATION
Was in Session Monday Listen
ing to Protests Against Raises

The county board of equalization

reservations calculated to relieve
them of the boards action.

reduction in her assessment as
raised by the board of 5000; A. G.
Meagher, $175; S. B. Smart, 800;

What ia Eat.

A wise word has come from out
of Washington, IN the form of a
warning by the department of agri-
culture againat dietetic cranks The
statement says.
beware OF freak diets and of fax
ers calling themselves food experts;
eat what you like, and whom you feel
like it, giving attention to cleanli-
ness and wholesome cooking. Some
of the advocates of freak diets ere
sincere, but are themselves deluded,
Others are fakirs who are seeking
to make money by advising peculiar
systems of diet"
