REAL PLAYERS
MAKE REAL BETS
IN REAL GAMES
GAMBLING is WIDE OPEN AND
EVEN POLICE OFFICIALS
TAKE HAND IN GAMES

With hundreds of people crowding
the Big Casino today, moving pic
lures were taken at noon, showing
gambling games running full blast.
Every table was crowded with play
ers and chips were bet with reck-
lessness that would have caused a
stranger in our midst to believe that
the days of 1902 had returned with
out change. The pictures were
real to life, with real gamblers con
Quoting the games and players with
experience making the bets. Even
the manner in which the various
dealers raked in the chips was real
istic. The only part that was not
real, was the losses sustained by the
players.
Tonight pictures will be taken of
the dance hall with dancing in prog
ress. The merry whirs on the
dance floor viii be vastly different
than the scenes usually staged in
pictures supposed to represent the
west There will be nothing object
ionable in the pictures and an invi
tation has been extended to the
public to be in attendance.
Governor Oddie, who was invited
to participate IN the pictures, will
arrive in Tonopah Saturday morning

been received last evening The gov

BUSINESS PLAN
 F0R MARKETING
Whole Nation Will Suffer Unless Some Plan Is De Vised for Better Handling of the Crops From It's Farms

CHICAGO, March 1j.-"If some steps are not taken to pu, the mar keting of farm crops on business basis, the whole nation will suffer
 keenly from the neglect" was the statement of David B Clarkson. Chi cago publisher and gentleman farmer,
 on his return from a trip to the southwest.
 My eyes Were opened to the far
 mers side of this high cost of living question: he continued. They were opened in rather a peculiar way, too. l went down to my farm near Corpus Christi to purchase an adjoining tract of land While there l came in con tact with a number of active growers of truck. While telling them of the hlgh prices We must pay retailers
 in the city for what we eat, a prom lnent truck grower remarked that most of the folks down there had lost money trying to grow the very truck l was complaining about being too high. That didn't look right, so l made inquiries and discovered that hundreds of other farmers in that inn mediate section had experienced the same difficulties. l was also informed that nearly all the growers of per ishable farm products in the southern and western parts of the United States had lost money
 The cause of these disasters ap- pears to me to be in poorly organized selling forces for farm products. rath- CT than in over production. The re- suit of the unorganiZed condition re- fleets itself in decreased land values as well as actual suffering on the part of the producers and consumers.
 Tt seems to me that the national conference on marketing and farm credits, to be held in Chicago April
 &, and 10, will be in a position to offer the double solution which the nation is seeking for this high cost of farm products By effectine better distribution and easier methods of financing farm operations. it will bring higher prices for the farmers raW products. The same methods will lower retail prices, Every business man should seriously consider these questions and, if possible, be present at this conference to lend his influence and ability in solving the problems that now confront us

 BRILLIANT SHOOT BY BRITISH
 NAVAL TEAM
 They have been setting new marks in England for the miniature rifle shots of the world. only few months ago, James Pepe, a London newspaper re- porter, ''scooped the world with his rifle" making a ten shot group at 100 yards, every shot of which could be covered or cut by an American quarter. No such group had ever previously been made by any marksman. Now comes the report of a recent Military , Mail" match in which a 5-man team from the Royal Naval Barracks team. DeyonpOrt England, made a series of , sensational scores. using Remington UMC ammunition in .22 calibre rifles, as did Mr. Pope
 Shooting at 25 and 50 yards-5 shots per man at each distance-the total score of the team was 796 out of a pos sible 500, only points being dropped in the entire match Only of the 40 shots at 25 yards went outside of the 10-ring the very center of a bull's-eye only 7s inch in diameter-and the 40 shots at 50 yards grouped within an inch , circle. In seven matches for the ''Mili- tary Mail'' trophy, the Royal Naval i Barracks team compiled an aggregate of no less than 5,51S points out of a possible $500, the average per match being 7SS2S an astonishing perform ance. No less remarkable are the fig , ures returned by Gunner Stone, cap
 tain of the team, who maintained an
 individual average throughout the
 whole tournament of 9942 dropping . only four points in the seven matches ! American shooters are closely watch

EMPEROR BILL

German Monarch Suffers From SnObbish Flattery of the Courtiers Who Surround Him ill Berlin Palace

BERLIN, March 15-EmperOr Will liam has suffered recently great hu- initiation owing to the snobbish flat tery of the courtiers surrounding him. who, according to editorial ar ticles in the newspapers, succeed in making him believe he has done things that have never even occurred. The latest instance of this kind, that in which the emperor told the German council of agriculture that he had evicted Helmuth Sohst, the lessee of a farm on his Kadinen estate, be- cause of his inefficiency, has left an unpleasant impression on the public mind. The tenant is still in posses sion and will remain until his lease expires some years hence, for the court has decided that his contract has not been violated
 Two meetings of farmers in the vicinity of Kadinen have just been held to correct statements made by the emperor. who also said that he had been the first to introduce into the province of West Prussia superior variety of rye known as Petkus rye.
 His Majestys remarks were re ceived with surprise and pain by his neighbors, who knew that both were incorrect The meetings took issue with the Emperor as to the efficiency of the lessee and declared that Petkus rye had been planted in West Prus- sa for twenty years-in other words before the emperor acquired kadinen
 One speaker wanted to know who poured such stories into the emperors nl n Q lied to.
 resolution was passed declaring Sohst to be "an extraordinary indus trious and efficient farmer-with a lively interest in his work and a ful understanding of agricultural ques- tions"
 As for Petkus rye. the pastor of the church said that it had been Ions planted in that region, and probably every farmer present used that va riety.
 The emperor had told the counci that the farmers of the vicinity crowded in front of his barns al threshing time and fought for chanc, to get some of his Petkus rye fol seed and that consequently he did al excellent business with his crop. Or the other hand, the farmers at this meeting declared that none of thu neighborng farmers had bought Pet kus rye of the emperor. neither dit they know of anybody that had dom SO
 The meeting finally voted an ex pression of it's deepest pain that ou most beloved Kaiser has been so in correctly informed about his lessee o long standing"
 Meanwhile Sohst has become tn most talked of man in Germany. H likes a legal fight-when he has tn contract in his favor-and he propose to fight it out with the monarch, eve though his suit should be taken t the supreme court.
