fortune to fall and injure himself the
latter part of last week and has been
laid up with several bruises and an
attack of rheumatism brought on by
exposure. When injured he lay
where he fell for a matter of two
hours before he was discovered, and
was almost dead from exposure. DR..
Belanger was called to attend him
and DR.. Hood was called from Reno

AT this writing he is doing nicely and

Eradicate This Crop Menace

Reno Gazette: Nevada potato
growers have had sorry experience
with the eel worm. Scabies has on
several occasions caused Nevada
sheep to be quarantined. Alfalfa
growers and grain farmers have met
with losses through the spread of
wild mustard, fox tail and other per-
nicious weeds. Now there is a men,
ace from the Canada thistle, a shrub
that is rapid in its spread and ex-
tremely difficult to eradicate. A
large amount of hay is exported
every year from the State, but it can
not continue if the bales contain this
tie. The individual farmers should,
for their self protection, stop this pest
before it becomes widespread. but if
they do not do so of their own Volt
ton, a statute forcing them to do so
should be enacted and the penalty
for non-observance be made heavy.
Other States have done this.

ANNUAL SHEEP REPORT ISSUED
Copies Mailed to Owners in Nevada

The annual report of the Nevada
Sheep Commission is just off the press
of the State Printing Office and is be-
ing mailed to sheep owners through
out the State.
For the year 1913 a fraction more
than 4 per cent of the sheep in the
State were found to be infected with
scab. The infected sheep were con-
fined to a small number of owners.
The inspections during the year to-
tailed 1857, 432, of which All ,632
were found in the Washoe district,
4S3, 1917 were in the Elko district and
$50, 003 werein the Lovelock district.
The number of sheep exposed to In
lection in each district was: Washoe,
3,210; Elko, 39,045; Lovelock, 1900.
The number of infected sheep in each
district was: Washoe, 300; Elko, 34,-
ia; Lovelock, 2 ,3S4. A large pro-
portion of the trouble is said to have
been among certain White Pine Coun,

The report gives the total valua-
ton of sheep in the State as $2,113,-
056.5 so. Two counties, Clark and
Storey, are credited with no sheep.
Elko County leads with a valuation
of S623, 445; Humboldt is second with

WHY PROSPECTING HAS
LOST ATTRACTIONS

The prospector is not making new
discoveries in old districts and few
new discoveries in new territory be-
cause he thinks it is folly to open up
a new prospect until an old one is
sold. He sees properties with 1000
feet or more of useful development,
making what he considers a good
showing and warranting vigorous
continued development, go year after
year without opportunity to make a
sale, says a writer in the Engineering
& Mining Journal. He observes that
the owners, because of poverty or
Encouragement, resort whenever
possible to a lease and bond to men
without capital or other assets, in or
der to avoid expenditure for annual
assessment work. These lessees in
order to make beans and bacon "pick
the eyes out of the mine" to make
shipping ore, which upon the termin-
alton of the bond. leaves it less sale
able than at first. The prospector
is, because of these Heterogeneous,
losing faith in man though not in ma
ture. His faith in nature is stead
fast and enduring, but he has been
taught by experience that under
present conditions, there is an over
production of well-developed pros
pects-"near mines"-and until a
bona ide sale occurs now and then he
will only half heartedly work his
claims and will make butitful efforts
to find new ones.
1t is manifestly absurd for any one
man to decide from personal obser-
walton that there is an exhaustion of
the easily discoverable ore bodies in
the western States. 1t would take
him more than 20 years to visit the
1880 mining districts of the Is States.
