HAS A CURE
FOR A PEST

1t looks as if Ed Bettencourt is to
be classed among the benefactors to
the human race and should be in line
for a Carnegie medal. as he has what
appears to be dead sure cure for the
dandelion pest. Ed, who has been
fighting the pests in his lawn for sew
eral years, tackled every new scheme
that was recommended They all
failed. He then set to work on his
own hook.
He procured syringe with hypo-
dermic point arrangement. This was
filled with gasoline and each of the
plants that he was experimenting on
was given an injection. This happen
ed on Sunday. This morning Mr..
Dandelion is dead one The influ-
ence of the gasoline on the Towering
pest was remarkable. 1t not alone
killed the blossom but it absolutely
mushed or rotted the entire plant, the
gasoline evidently working down the
root and fiber passage More of the
plants will be treated in this manner
at his place
Some filed an objection that it was
too slow problem As many have
gone on their hands and knees and
dug the pests out this operation of
Mr.. Bettencourt's is far simpler and
decidedly more effective While Ed
figures that Uncle John Rockefeller
will owe him something for introduc-
ing this Standard Oil product, vet
the fact remains that it is deadly and
is worth the experiment by those who
would rid their laws of the pesky yell
low flowers and their hardw plants
that threaten to take possession of the
entire lawn frontage in many in
stances.

old residents can recall the period
when what is now big sagebrush was
under high cultivation.
The reclaiming of this valuable
tract of land can only be done by
such cheap power as electricity and
there is plenty OF juice on the wires
for such purpose. AS the power line
runs directly over the mountain north
Of town it has been quite an under
taking to deliver poles and material
on the ground Albert Quill has been
in charge of this end and Tom Kear-
ney will get busy on the wiring with
in a few days.
At the present time electric power
is pretty well scattered over the north
end of the valley The work at the
Winters farm is worth the time to
go and see as it is larger than the av-
erage resident realizes.

Big irrigation Plant
Is Being Installed

The work of installing electricity
for the Ira Winters farm III Washoe
Valley is going ahead as fast as the
crew can set poles and it is expected
this week to commence stretching
wire. This is one of tn largest plants
50 far installed in Nevada Aside
from the Douglas farm it ranks well
with the big schemes in California.
Several thousand feet of 14-inch
pipe is being delivered to the ground
This will be run into Washoe Lake
for distance of 500 feet so as to take
water when the lake is low. The CEN
triiugal pump used is Of ten-inch
bore and will thow a tremendous
stream of water AT the present time
Mr.. Winters is breaking up 400 acres
of land for the water. This is to be
seeded with grain and alfalfa The
ground has been tested and it is found
to be ideal for this culture a it is deep
on the upper end of the farm and is

Winters has big crew at work on

1t is stated that peat field has
been found near Gardnerville that
promises new industry up the val
lev, and also should make cheap and
desirable fuel for this section. The
matter has been tested out by the
Dangberg company and the results
are more than satisfactory. Briquetts
made from the material have proven
more than the claims as they burn
well and tests show a high per cent
age of carbon 1t is stated that some
six hundred acres have been located
and that Developments are now being
carried on in this new field of indus
try. Should the find prove sufficient
in quantity a factory for rendering it
marketable will be established this
summer.

Peal Field Discovered
In Carson va||cu

Parties who are well acquainted
with Carson Valley tell of this peat
field from experience At the Ben
Palmer farm in years gone by many
ground fires have started that have
burned for months Even the flood
ing of irrigation has failed to put this
fire out, and it was undoubtedly this
peat field or one like it that burned
and worked its way underground for
acres With this knowledge in the
minds of many it is strange that the
commercial end OF this valuable de-
posit has not been opened up before.
A number of people have told of such
fires and of the efforts to put them
out The developments along this
line will be watched with interest. as
