FOUND BOGUS MONEY

Yesterday afternoon while three
small boys we're playing back of the
saloon, formerly kept by Frank
Karami:os, they found three rolls
Of silver coin wrapped in wrapping
paper and pieces of the San Fran
cisco Examiner Of February 10,
1918. One Of the boys, Edelo
Quilici, took part of the money to
Eugene Ciprisna, his uncle, with
whom he is living.

lodged against Scott's dam. AL
though some Of the envelopes re-
quired re-sealinH, the contents were
readable and not seriously injured.
Practical, as twenty-two years of
successful stock business in Nevada
attest, Fred Noble at the same
time believes in the use of the
most progressive practice that has
been developed by scientists and
experimentUrs. In the handling of
his blooded' horses on the home
ranch north of Golconda he intro
duces successfully some Of the most
technical methods. Prior to NOV
ing to Nevada Mr.. Noble was as
sociatcd with his father in the stuck
business in the Wyoming Bighorn
mountains. Although the Wyoming
ranges cnuld not equal those IF
northern Nevada, they had an ad-
vantage in closer proximity to
market that perhaps offset the dis
advantage in quality and quantity
of feed.
Speaking Of the sporadic appear
anre of the lip and leg disease
among the bucks, MIR. Noble is of
the opinion that effective hand
treatment of those slightly affected
and disposition of those with which
the malady has further advanced,
should promptly stamp out the di-
sease, as has been done in other
states. To prevent q recurrence
he believes every imported sheen
should be given two dippings.
Owners Of high. priced bu ks have
hesitated tn do this on the ground
that it is injurious. With proper
care and %goodfeed, however, MIR.
Noble does not think the clippings

CATTLE OWNERS ASSOCIATION

The Cattle Owners Association
of the State met at 1880 this
morning in the court room, w. H.
Moffat of Reno in the chair. Dave
Staunton Of Winnemucca kept track
Of the proceedings.
The forenoon session was mostly
spent in debating proposed changes
in the branding law and urging the
passage of a LAW requiring the iu-
spection of brands on cattle shipped
out of the state. The executive
committee was instructed to draft
bills to be presented to the. next
legislature on the above matters.
Stock owners were urged to take
more interest l n the election of
members of the legislature to the
end that the property interests of
the state may be more equitably
represented and a lot of useless
Offices and commissions abolished.
There is a large attendance of
stock owners from different parts
Of the state and from avery section
of this county.
The proceedings were harmonious
and much good will doubtless be
accomplished before the meeting
adiourns. At noon, a recess was
taken until 2:30 d. m.

cure deafness and that is by con-

caused from the inflamed condition

inflamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing. and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness
is the result, and unless infiamma-

restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by
