The following answer has been re-

petitionns that have gone east to
both the Senators and the Presi-

who don't like the Senior Senator's
attitude in relation to the tariff prob
lem. The answer was forwarded to
the Journal:
''Your issue OF May 22d is before
me. The Democrats of Nevada need
have no fears regarding my action

as shaped by the House was, like all
tariff bills, compromise between
industries and sections. The re-

not represented upon the Ways and

HUNT JA|LS
FOR LODGINGS
Special to the AppeaD

MARYSVILLE, Cal, May 2.--
Officials through the upper part OF
the Sacramento Valley are perplex
ed at the conduct of Hindus, who
have habit OF appearing at jails ana
pleading poverty as an excuse for re
questing nights lodging. Hther-
to they have been refused. because to
admit one meant admitting a dozen
or fifty, for all who in the past have
been accommodated have Immediate
ly spread the glad tidings that free
sleep is to be had for the asking.
The chief of police here has appar-
emily solved the problem. Moder
Singh demanded rest for the night
and when refused squatted in front
of the entrance and declined to leave
tie was locked up on a charge of dis
turbing the peace and grinned eN-
tcnsively at having at last found rest
Next morning he was fined $40 with
the alternative of paying or working
ten days in the chain gang. He sent
a friend to an adjacent saloon for
$50 he had on deposit and paid for
his nights sleep. Authorities in all
pestered towns are to adopt similar
programs.

which are in full bloom. They are
beauties. This yard is under the
care OF Mrs. Petersen who does the
planting. Several eastern evergreens
decorate the lawn and are making
excellent growth. Take a walk that

TO. PLANT
THE FISH
IN NEVADA
Commission Supplying
The Applicants

The State Fish hatchery in this
city is rapidly disposing of the fry
that hatched here Yesterday 10000
silver salmon, which were hatched in
the Carson hatchery, were sent to
Glenbrook, where the fish were
planted in Lake Tahoe. This IS
alon gthe line of an experiment as
the chinook salmon have been plant
ed the past few years in hopes thar
they might grow and make food and
sport in Nevada's lakes. The new
variety does not grow as large and
it is believed that they will make an
excellent fresh water fish.
The remaining fry will be sent
from the hatchery to the Verdi
plant during the week, as the condi
tions for shipping are better from
that point. Applications for all the
hatch OF this year have been receiv-
ed by the Commissioners and the
fish will be distributed to the best OF
their judgment.
Elko and Humboldt are asking for
large consignments and as many as
possible will be sent to the streams
out that way. 1t is figured that it
will take at least two months to land
the fish in the different streams
throughout the state.

ILLS IN TRAIN OF AVIATION
Sudden Ascent to High Attitudes, and
as Sudden Descent, Frequently
Brings on Sickness.

M. Berget, a French aeronaut, aft.
er speaking of the conditions of the
atmosphere in general, brings out
some points on aviator's sickness.
Aeroplanes sometimes reach attitudes
IF ten thousand feet In an hour, and
here the effects on the ear such as
cumming or cracking noise are about
he same as In a balloon, but the eff
'ect on the respiratory organs is diff
rorent. The pilot Is sooner out Of
breath and he feels a special kind Of
uneasiness. During the descent, the
heart beats are of greater amplitude,
but without accelerating, A quicker
descent in a sailing flight at a speed
Of 1000 or 1900 feet q minute or
eyen more, causes a feeling of a spe-
cial kind, or u%neasiness, accompanied
with humming in the ears, Burning
in the face Is also felt and a severe
headache, also the great tendency to
sleep which has been before observed.
The movements Of the body are slug
gish and unskillful. These symptoms
continue for some time after the land
ing, and the tension in the arteries is
noticed to be higher than the normal.

ADJUSTING SCHOOLS TO FARH
opialOR Advanced That Country Boy
and olrls should Be Taught
Rural Subjects,

Advocating that the boys and girla
stay on the farm and at the same
time teaching city subjects In the
rural schools is contradictory. II the
boys and girls are taught one thing
they cannot be expected to desire to
do something else even II so ad-
vised.
Boys and girls In thlrty-four schools
IN Wright county, Iowa, were asked
what they desired to do. or the 1854
boys, l57 desired to leave the farm
and 1853 OF the ia girls desired to do
likewise. But after agriculture and
home economics had been taught for
three years the same question was
asked In the same schools. This time
1872 OF the TIA boys desired to stay
on the farm and 161 Of the 17S girls.
This changing Of an almost unani.
nous desire to stay on the farm
seems almost miraculous. Yet 1t was
done through making a change In the
course Of study, writes w. G, Palmer
in the Breeders Gazette.
Boys and girls will desire to do the
things they have been taught how to
do. Their interest Is developed in the
things they are taught. Agriculture
and home economies are the things
that boys and girls are most interest
ed In to begin with. They live in a
great agriculture and home economics
laboratory.
The knowledge that they have when
they come to school Is or these sub
jects. Education to be the most effec-
tive must begin with what the chill
dren know.
The will to do springs from the
knowledge that one can do. One
likes to do what one can do well. Do
ing work that one does not under
stand Is d~rudgery. Most boys must
enter productive. work. If they are
not educated for it then 1t will be
drudgery. Most girls will manage
homes. II they are not taught about
It homemaking would be a drudgery.
It Is in the power Of the schools to
make their enthusiastic workers or
drudges Of the boys and girls.
