LYON WILL HAVE DISPLAY
AT STATE FAIR.
Gathering of Agricultural and Mineral
Exhibits Now Being Made.

Agents Of the Commercial Club who
who are making round OF the valley,
Gaining on the ranchers IN the interest
OF the state Fair exhibit, report great
success, and are now conhdent that
splendid showing will be made from
the district. The committee reports
that everywhere they are made wei
come ana given promise OF splen-
did exhibit and one that promises to
make the most favored sections of the
State look out for the honors. This is
very gratifying i'll every way, partic-
ularly when we consider that ii is only
a very short time since we took hold
OF the matter of an exhibit i'll earnest
loo late. in fact, to be able to make
a fully representative showing, as
nearly all the grain was cut and all the
first cutting OF alfalfa in the stack
but as it is we will have good dis
play of cereals, vegetables and root
crops, with fine showing of plate
exhibits III the horticultural depart
ment. Lack of boxes properly made
and poor packing facilities prevent
fruit growers from entering the box
exhibit competition. but nearly every
orchardist in the district declares his
determination to go after the pre-
mlumS in the box division another
year
Promises from the Warren Brothers
assure a good showing OF honey and
other products and this is one OF our
boasts-that our valley is the greatest
bee district-and we are really graft
fed to be able to assure those who
expect sweet things OF Us at the Fair
that they will not be disappointed
Other apiarists will add TO the attrac-
tion in this division
Manager Dahl OF the creamery, too,
has promised something good to show
in the division OF dairying and dairy
products: and this would add another
bright feather TO our cap il we could
just carry off the honors in this very
important industry.
II is hopefully expected that every
person in the valley will have some
thing of merit to send to the ranch
mans show AT Reno and ladies are
particularly requested to send speci-
mems of needlework. crocheting, paint
ing or products of the kitchen or pan
try: pickles. preserves. jellies, can
ned fruits. etc.
Arrangements are also being made
to have a splendid mineral exhibit. and
all OF the mining men are responding
literally to the call for specimens
The Nevada Douglas people certainly
expect To send a copper exhibit worth
while as they have had il insured for
81 600. 1t i understood that the smel
ter at Thompson is also going to pre-
pare an interesting exhibit OF it-
products.

Lake Tahoe Dispute Settled.

Secretary of the Interior Lane has
made final settlement OF the dispute
over the use OF water from Lake Ta-
hoe for the government reclamation
project. His scheme OF settlement is
as follows
First, the government shall refrain.
at least for five years from cutting any
timber along the upper Truckee river.
This will conserve the flow of water
Second. the government will clean
out the upper part OF the waterway
of fallen timber or other distractions
to increase the flow of water for use
III the reclamation project
Third, the government shall pledge
itself not to take any more water from
the lake than enters it III the normal
inflow from its various sources of sup
plv. This will leave the lake beauty
spot. but will provide government reg
ulation and control-Carson News.

Nevada Douglas Superintendent

Nevada Douglas Superintendent
Archie Orem. OF the Nevada Douglas
Copper Company, has wired the Salt
Lake Offices to the effect that on the
100 and 20O levels of the Casting Cop
per section of the property he nas f!ill
faces OF II per cent copper ore. On
the l0G-foot level the cross-cut is now
III 55 fee all the way in ore, while the
crosscut on the 2O0foot level is %
feet in all in ore while at neither
place have any walls been encountered
TO date
This is the most gratifying news
that the Nevada Douglas company has
received for a considerable period, ds
it tends to establish the truth of the
assertion made by the management
some months ago that the Cdatif :
Copper section would prove to be a;
good as, if not better than. the Lud
wig section This Casting Copper de-
velopmcnt is bringing substantial ton
nages to sight and increasing the com
pany's production ability i'll very
gratifying manner.
The plan Of the Nevada Douglas
company to equip the property with
teaching plant will bring into avai!
able form very large tonnage OF
copper ore now developed, but which
can be better handled i'll teaching
plant than by direct smelling 1t IS
estimated that there are from oOO.OW
to 100000 tons of such ore available.
/ the average OF which is anywhere
+ from to 3H per cent copper. The
exhaustive series of experiments made
! by teaching experts on the Nevada
! Douglas ores has demonstrated that
/ ores carrying even less than per cent
and over | u per cent can be handled
pro6tably, and the company intends
J to install a mill consisting of five units
each with daily capacity of 100 tons
of ore
The system to be used will be

Will Use Smudge Pots.

George Strosnider, whose orchard in
the upper end OF the valley. is this
year bearing an abundant crop OF
fruit. Is going to use heaters, or
smudge pots another year. His apple
trees. in particular, are loaded this
year and many of the trees will have
to be thinned OF at least 50 per cent
OF the fruit to prevent the branches
from breaking. Mr.. Strosnider in
badly hurt by the frostS lost April,
and in consequence the yield materi

He says he is going to equip his en-

Yerinoton Mountain.-The Yering

to the Thompson smelter regularly
The ore is hauled by wagon to the ore
bins on the spur of the New. < Cal
road. The roads, which were damaged
last month by cloudbursts. are again
in good condition and shipments are
now going forward without delay
Development is going ahead in the
mine. and from present indications the
property WILL within the next twelve
months be sending out a greatly in
creased tonnage.

more development work being done.
Mason Valley.-The Mason Valley

Connell property, which went into the
ore last week has been driven ahead
to a point which demonstrates the ore
contact to be about 70 feet in width,

DAIRY SCHOOL OUTFIT FOR
UNIVERSITY.
Building Now Under Way-Great Aid
to Dairy Industry.

Few on the campus besides those
Immediately concerned have paid a
great deal of attention to the building
being constructed on the east side just
below the Orr ditch. This is the new
dairy building and will be the home
OF the new school for dairying At the
last session of the legislature in Car
son S4,S00 was appropriated for head
quarters for such school. The plans
of the Regents have grown since this
amount was appropriated and now this
money will be used for actual build
ing construction. The equipment OF
the olant will be that of small but
up -to-date and scientific manufactory
OF dairy products. This equipment
will cost $4,000 and viii come from
the United States agricultural fund.
The building is being built by the
Friedhof Company, a firm OF local
contractors: it was designed by +. j
De Lonchant The building will be a
two story structure. the ground floor
to be occupied by the entire creamery
plant. the upper floor to be devoted
to the class and lecture rooms. The
building will cover an area of 90 feet
long by SO feet in width
Although Professor Scott has not
placed any of the orders for the equip
rnent OF the building. several dairy
supply and machinery companies have
asked for ;ul opportunity to bid on the
outfit needed When equipped, the
following list of dairy product machin-
cry will have been installed: Receiving

separator. milk cooler. bottle filler

Victor typc). butter printer, starter
can. large and small watts for CONNER
cial and student work in the cheese

this equipment the plant will be out
fitted with refrigerating machinery oi
the ammonia compression type. Ice
cream will be frozen in continuou.

plans of the Regents. ice freezing
boxes will eventually be put in. Pow
