SUPERVISING ENGINEER
Spent Monday And Yesterday
on The Project Viewing
Conditions.

Supervising Engineer E. G. Hop
son spent Monday and yesterday in
Fallon from his Headquarters H.
Portland Mr.. Hopson, as the chief
of the Pacific division, visits Fallon
about once each month. Asked re-
garding when the 1913 maintenance
charge would be required of the local
water users, he said no official noti-
fication had been issued to date and
that public notice would govern the
matter in all probability.
Reviewing the conditions here he
saw satisfactory progress on every
hand and eommends this project as
one of the few government enter
prises of the kind where land specu-
lators have not raised havoc with af-
fairs. In Hermiston and the North
Yakima projects, the government in
vestments are largely handicapped
by unwarranted land prices and he
AYERS the farmers here will do well
to save their increment for them

DEPARTMENT REORGANIZATION
Reclamation Reorganization Results
i'm Re,ehtion of Newell.

Secretary F. l.. Lane as a result of
his recent inquiry into government
irrigation projects, today announced
a radical reorganization of the recla-
nation service.
#. II. Newell, director of the re-
clamation service, will be the chair

gineer of the reclamation service;
Judge VIII R. King. of Oregon, chief
counsel, and one other who has been
selected but whose name is withheld
by Secretary Lane for the present
for administrative reasons, who will
have charge of contracts and hnan-
ces.
George Barton French, the COM
missioner in charge of operation and
maintenance, has had long ex-
perience as an executive OF western
railroads. He was recently president
Of the Seattle, Portland and Spokane
railroad.
1t Is proposed by Secretary Lane
that all future regulati ms affecting
water users or proposed contracts
for the construction of new works,
or all general policies of the service
shall be considered and passed on by
the board of commissioners as
whole. The commissioners will con-
stitute an administrative regulating
body, but each will have distinct ad-
ministrative duties to perform. All

THE COW QUESTION.
A Live Topic Here Where Ideal Con-
ditioas Abound.

The matter of turning to the milk
ing of cows as a means of farm In
come appeals dore strongly to the
farmers of this valley as time passes,
the increasing number of patrore OF
the Fallon creamery being -. Ience
of the truth of the statement. Just
now the creamery books testify to
the fact that something like 70 are
milking COWS for the local butter
factory.
Those acquainted with the facts
urge that owners of COWS breed for
dairying operations in the winter
rather than the summer, it being
pointed out that the highest priceG
prevail at this period for dairy pro-
ducts ad the winters here are so
uniformly mild and free from precipi
tation that cows do equally as we'll
in the production of milk as during
the summer months.

Settlers In Repaying The In
vestments.

1t is interesting to note in recent

progress being made in the repay
ment of the governments investment

these figures will prove that the wat

Jeets make less favorable showing
than Truckee-Carson project settlers

THE NEVADA HILLS COMPANY.
Issues Commendable Statement of
It's Operations.


It's Operations.
The final report of production
and earnings of the Nevada Hills
Mining company for the month of
April has just been issued by the
management and shows that the
company is now getting down to a
regular producing basis that will in
sure large profits in the future.
The month of April was not cri-
t rion of what may be expected for
the reason that the new water supply
pipe line was only completed on the
tenth of that month and the output
was necessarily reduced to a con-
siderable extent owing to the short
age of water that was relieved by
this supply, coming from Westgate.
The company purchased the water
rights at Westgate which insure an
ample flow for all requirements and
no interruption can be caused in the
future from this source. The tom
mage produced in April shows a con-
siderable increase over that Of the
previous month, the output having
been 221S tons as against 1925 tons
in March. Net profits for the month
were $14,236.12 and in March, ow-
ing to the water shortage and inter-
ruptions incident upon the construc-
ton of the pipe line. the company
operated at a net loss.
For construction and equipment
the company has expended the sum
of $520,703 and after writing OF
$24S,000 for depreciation of mine
and the plant the report shows bal
ance of assets in the company's favor
of s272,703.
