River Improvement Probable.

When General Rosel, chief of the
Army Board of Engineers, ordered a
reopening of the Leaf River project
last week, the engineers were over
ruled for the second time within a
month on their reports of river pro-
iects in the state of Mississippi. 1t
has been less than a month that Rep
resentative Gambler and the citizens
from Columbia and Mobile persuaded
the board to begin another investiga-
ton of the Tombigbee proposition, in
volving an expenditure of more than
100000
General Resell overruled the report
of the board in the matter of the Leaf
river project in so far as the present
report is concerned, and ordered the
district engineers to make another in
vestigation and to bring the report,
submitted about year ago, up to date.
If it can be developed that any new
commercial advantages have been de
veloped since the last report, a COM
plete re-investigation will doubtless be
ordered.
The action of General Resell is the
direct result of Representative Harri-
sons persistent efforts on behalf of the
Leaf river project. and he hopes in this
way to secure water rates for Hatties-
burg and smaller points along the
river.
Representatives Humphreys and
Gambler are members of the powerful
rivers and harbors committee, and II
Is certain that IL the board will recon-
mend either of these projects, the
committee will inclued them in their
Appropriations. But the committee Is
powerless to make an appropriation
that is not recommended by the en-
sineers.

SOLITUDE.

As one advances up the slow ascent
Along the pathway in the woods, the
trees
Change aspect, nor sione in this, but
change
In stature and In power till Solitude
Seems cut out of the ancient forest.
Here
Was Solitude! Where man had lived
of old
Loved, serving God, and built himself
a home,
Man smooths an acre on the rolling
earth,
Turns up the mold and reaps the gifts
of God;
Plucks down the apple from the tree
the tree
From empire in the forest, builds a
home;
Turn from about among his brothers,
A sister to his wife and gets an heir;
And then as here in Solitude departs
And leaves small mark behind. The
place is rare
In this epic of the human life,
Where wilderness has been wilderness
shall be.
But give God time; and life is but a
span,
Nine inches, while before it and behind
stretches the garden of the cosmic
gods;
For after London, England shall be
wild,
And none can thaw the iceberg at the
pole.
In Solitude one sees the winding trace
OF what has been a road, a block OF
stone
Footworn, that lies along the dim path
Before one old foundation; and the
rest
Is freaks of grass among the rising
SiO"bh
Of birth and maple that another yeal
Shall see almost forest.

Made

J. L. Hoffman, of the Carson Val
ley Cement Tile factor, has made a
proposition to the county commiss-
toner's, which if accepted will mark
a new era in road building in this
county. Mr.. Hoffman has offered
the free use of a rock crusher hav-
Ing capacity of 10 tons per day,
together with about fifty tons of
rock for repairing the road between
Gardnerville and Minden.
Permanent road building in this
county is sure to come just the same
as it has in California and other
states. 1t would be a splendid idea
to build this stretch of road, now
that it can be done at comparatively
small cost, as matter Of expert
ment. Then keep a record of ex-
pense of maintenance to compare
with the upkeep of dirt roads and
the result will be astonishing. In
California we'll built, rock surfaced
roads go years and years without
expense. Road patching" requires
the annual expenditure of large
sums with no permanent results.

Federal Law Will
Stop Duck Hunting

That the shooting of ducks and
other migratory or insectivorous
birds will be almost prohibited by
federal law wich will go into effect
October l is the opinion of United
States District Attorney SamlPlatt.
Having received many inquiries
about the federal migratory game
law, Mr.. Platt wired Solicitor Caffry
of the department of agriculture
and received reply saying that the
migratory game law will go into
effect October | when signed by
President Wilson. Violations of
the law is made misdemeanor and
punishable by fine not exceeding
800 or Imprisonment not exceeding
80 days. Regulations governing
hunting of migratory or insectivor-
Gus birds have been formulated by
the secretary of agriculture.
Mr.. Platt is of the opinion that
duck shooting may begin September
18th, as provided in the state law,
but that after October lst the fed
eral migratory game law will rule.
In general way the regulations
to be enforced will prohibit shoot
ing of such birds before sunrise
and after sunset.
As before sunrise and after sun
set are the times when the birds are
flying and feeding and the times
when hunters score heaviest, duck
shooting will receive severe crimp
under the new law. The regulations
will not affect hunting during the
day time, the hours when birds are
lying low and hard to find.

No Typhoid
From Drinking
Town Water

There are no cases of typhoid
fever at Gardnerville, caused by
drinking impure water, contrary to
reports not withstanding' AS a
matter of fact Gardnerville boasts
of having as pure water as can he
found anywhere in Nevada. Pump
ed from over one hundred feet be-
low the furface of the earth and
below stratas of clay and hardpan
that surface seepage could never
penetrate, our water is as pure as
water can possibly be.
Twenty years ago the water was
obtained from surface wells and
much sickness resulted. However,
in some quarter, people are slow to
learn that in recent years many
many changes have taken place in
Gardnerville, and broader speaking,
Carson Valley. One of the changes
being the development of artesian
water wherever possible and deep
bored wells.
Typhoid fever may develop but it
will not be on the account of Gard
nerville's water supply. That much
is certain.
