CHURCHILL CREAMERY
TO HAVE MODEL PLANT

G. j. Kelsey, manager OF the
Churchill County Creamery, Inc, re-
turned Saturday from Reno, where
he went to discuss a combination but
ter and cheese factory plan with the
state university authorities. This
week Mr.. Kelsey will visit the model
plant at Minden and another at Sac
ramento. His Investigations are cal
culated to produce the yer best
there is in modern creamery con-
struction and though there may be
larger plants on the coast, he is de-
termined that none shall be more eff
ficient or more sanitary than the pro-
jected local plant.
Already plans have been drawn by
the architect for the proposed cream
cry building, which have been shown
the editor of this paper, and insofar
as we are a judge, they provide for
everything that is contemplated by
modern creamery construction. The
proposed building will be on the west
side of Main street to the north of
the railroad track. 1t is expected
that the work of construction will
be in progress within the next tn
weeks.-Fallon Standard.

Keith, registry agent of Carson City.
to determine the question of the
right Of voters to change their party
affiliation after they have nee reg
istered, and also the right of those
registering without declaring their
affiliation for any party, at a later
date to request the registry agent to
write after their names the party
that they will vote with at the pri-
maries, says the Appeal.
The action of the attorney general
has been prompted by the receipt Of
letters from all over the state stat
ing that many voters desire to
change their party and that numer-
Gus citizens who had not declared
their preference desired to state the
party with which they were affiliat-
ed at the last general election. The
matter will be hurried to the SUI
