II lis reported from Pierre that IN

a critical lot OF state officials at the

that these officials have been pulling

old system OF each institution putting
out it's own work. These contractors
are causing to be circulated quite gen.

this reason, there seems to be a de-

been i~naugurated, particularly in the

OF " JAP" HART
JAMES P. HART, FORMER NEVA-

A PROUD FATHER.

James p. Hart, superintendent Of

day afternoon, will hereafter append
the word senior to his signature,
for J. p. Hart, Jr., arrived in this
world shortly after II o'clock last
night Hart expected an event Of
this kind and was not really sur
prised when Dr. Mcdonnell informed
him that it was a boy, weighing s
pounds. Both Mrs. Hart and son are
reported this morning as progressing
nicely.
Hart, ST., was formerly one Of the
leading athletes at the University Of
Nevada and at one time was nem-
Der Of the famous Reno Wheelman's
club. The last named organization
time and again defeated the crack
relay teams from Sacramento, San
Francisco, San Jose and other coast
cities. At the university Hart was q
star in football and participated in
the famous game with the University
Of California in 1902 when Nevada
defeated Berkeley for the first time
in the history of intercollegiate foot
ball between the two institutions. A
one time he also held the college
record for pole vaulting.
Jap" Hart as the proud fathe
is better known, has arranged t
send his son and heir TO the stat

sufficient growth. and in the NEAR
time he will give the youngster a
athletic training with the hope tha

race. II began when man discoy-
cred that two working together could
accomplish more than when each
worked alone In fact history is
but the development of the social in

of society and If this development
is not arrested by the rigid limita-

commonwealth, which is Socialism.

German turner festivals are gather

American life. The people of the
United States have seen nothing like
them. The illustrated books show the
most picturesque features of the

tacular historical pageants that will
occupy every evening during the fes-
tival. The turnfest will be held June

Why Let the DandeIions Spo;l
Our Town?

E.erybodys lawn seems to be taking
on beautiful bright yellow ard the
combination of yellow and the green of
the grass is quite pleasing to the eye
but the next stage of tall stems and
white heads set with hundreds and
hundreds of seeds standing up inches
above the ground giving your yard the
appearance that your wife has gone to
the country to stay is not SO pleasing
nor yet the next stage when your lawn
is bare of grass and all you have is the
yellowlf flowers and white heads of dan
delioRs gone to seed, This last stage
is hard to imagine if you have not
seen it but it will be here just about
next spring if We do nothing to prevent
it.
Many are of the opinion that you
can't kill dandelioas because they have
tried digging them and half dozen
comes to the funeral. Cutting them
near the top has the same effect that
discing has on alfalfa. The crop is very
much improved. However, if they are
taken out deeply they stay out.
Mr.. Durkee has had digger made
which gets them. He uses it around
the Court House and any one can see
how it does the work.
There is another way of getting
them that is by applying gasoline to
the crown of the plant by means of a
large machine oil can. To be effective
it must be applied carefully ard dlrec-
tly to the crown Of the plant saturat-
ing each stem and bud at the point
where it comes through the ground,
In few days it has turned brown and
Is rotten. Both methods to be q sue
cess must be well done or there will
have to be two attacks Of bsckache
and maybe more to get rid Of one dan
delion and the second attack 10 sure to
be more acute than the frstbecause Of
the knowledge that the first treatment
would have proved cure If it had
been rightly administered.
Our little town is clean and we'll kept
"a thing to be proud of. Let US not
lose out on this dandelion question.
Look at the park, look up the street
and in your neighbor's yard and while
you are looking take squint ct your
own yard and ask yourselfif you would
like to plough it up and if you wouldn't
let US have a long pull and strong
pull and pull all together this month
both the town and people, and clean
roadsides and yards. Get the boys
and girls started, pay them SO much if
they will clean out the dandelions in q
certain spot. Tell them just how and
they will soon see that careless work
don't pay.
1t will be a whole lot cheaper than
to start a new lawn on the meter sys-
TEN. Some have tested their meters
and find them running at a. rate of 480
to 500 gallons an hour with the sprink-
lers on. Estimate this at the proposed
rate and see what conclusion you come
to.
Put the money into the boys and
girls pockets and soon there wont be
one white head showering backaches
over your neighbor as well as yourself
Get out and push for the month of
May. Don't le: them go to seed, NOW
your lawn at least once a week and
get out your gasoline can and and dig
ger and go to work. Delay means de-
feat, We can't afford it.
