M'DFRMlTT FIRE DESTROYS
$1,000 WORTH SUPPLIES

At 10 O'Clock last evening the
family of Dora Lassa discovered
flames bursting through the roof of
the rock cellar, adjoining the McDer-
mitt residence. In a few moments all
that was left was the standing stone
walls.
The structure stood eight feet from
the house and was built with rock
walls and roof of piles, covered with
brush and dirt. 1t was used as a
storehouse for supplies. Mr.. Lasa left
Winnemucca a week or ten days ago
with large load of supplies for the
winter for himself and neighbors, all
of which were stored in the cellar and
were total loss. Their value is esti-
mated at $4,000, insurance unknown.
1t had been the custom for parties
visiting the cellar to carry a lighted
candle, and it is thought that the last
one to leave left the candle burning.

DEATH CAUSES COMPIL-
CATION IN LAND OFFICE

The sad death of Earl W. Tre-
mont, following the weeks of siren
uous labor at the Federal building in
preparing and transcribing the many
hundred pounds of documents which
had to be transferred to the new land
office at Elko, makes quite a compli-
cation in the local office. Shortly af
ter the death of Mr.. Trem MT, Regis
ter Cohn telegraphed to the depart
ment at Washington notifying them
of the death of Mr.. fremont and it is
probable that an appointment will be
made at once to fill the position. The
safe and all books of the receiver ara
locked and the combination cannot be
touched. In the Federal land Office
the combinations to the respective
safes are known but to the officers in
charge of the same and duplicate of
the combination filed with the depart
ment at Washington. Owing to the
death of Mr.. fremont the only key to
the combination of the receiver will
be transmitted to the successor in
office. Now is the time for the max
ing of reports to the government and
this has all been held up by the death
of Mr.. fremont and cannot be com
pleted until his successor has been ap-
pointed and has taken charge of the
ohice.-Carson News.

PROMOTE BIG SMELTfR

Col. Tom Ewing returned yesterday
from trip to Chicago, coming via
San Francisco. He left the latter cit !
on New Year day, stopping at several
points en- route.
He states that the recent storms
have insured sufficient water for
California crops this season. The
heaviest rainfall was at Grass Valley
where is is claimed S1a inches fell in
"a hours.
Speaking of money conditions in the
middle west, Col. Ewing states that
there was a transformation in finan.
cial circles within a few days after
the passage of the currency bill and
that moneyed men now view the situa
tino with complaceney.
"All indications are that we shall
have a prosperous year in mining,
continued Col. Ewing. Within &C
days it will be possible to secure all
the money needed to develop good
mining properties, and mining men
with acquaintance are having nc
trouble in securing funds at the pres
ent time
Col. Ewing intimated that he was
figuring on promoting a big smelter
but would furnish no details beyond
the fact that it would be located in
the state, probably outside Humboldt
county.

ICE CUTTING DELAYED
ON ACCOUNT OF RAIN

lee cutting has been in progress dur
ing the week, Notwithstanding the
warm weather On account of the
heavy rainstorm of last night, how
ever, work has been suspended for to
day, but will be resumed again to-
night. Before the holidays 1t was i'm
possible to secure ice in the ponds,
for the reason that the water had run
out, leaving the ice on the bottom, but
the high water of the past week or ten
days has raised it up to where it can
be cut.
johnson & Becker and the Diehl
estate are cutting at the pond in the
field of the f. Reinhart Land & Live
stock company, east of town, and the
former have up about $50 tons, with
$50 tons more to cut to fill their ice
houses.

IMPORTANCE OF
BEET INDUSTRY

The National Copper bank, of Salt
Lake City, in its trade and finance
letter dated December 81, discusses
the beet sugar industry of this ter
ritory as follows:
One of our two most important
manufacturing industries is the ex-
traction and refining of beet sugar.
The totals of the transactions involv
ed in the purchase of beets, the pay
ment of wages, ETC., are impressive,
and there are important collateral
benefits derived from this industry
The production for this year is the
heaviest SO far attained. Sugar manu-
facture is carried on by four com
panies in this territory, one of which
has only one comparatively small
plant from which we do not have
data. The three larger companies
have IL factories which are this year
slicing 10000 tons of beets grown on
5000 acres, an average of 12.1 tons
of beets to the acre. To do this
work, they employ 1850 people for
about three months in the year, and
pay them a wage of $1,250,000. An
other sum of $3,630,00O was paid
farmers for the beets, and something
more than $1,000,0O0 for freight, and
other charges incident to the busl-
ness. While the run is not yet COM
pleted, it is estimated that 172,000,-
600 pounds of sugar will be the out
put for the three principal companies
Aside from the usual advantages
which accrue from the presence of a
large industry giving employment to
many people, we call attention to the
large total of nearly $5,000,000 which
was paid in cash during the last three
months of this year TO THE FARM
ERS. Any country bank or merchant
can tell you of the easy credit condi
tion than the sugar beet payments
bring each year. While not provid
ing continuous inflow of cash, as
dairying and hog raising do, and
while consequently not so successful
in keeping farmers out of debt, it at
least provides an annual cleanup
date for those who are in debt, the
resultant benefits of which are hard
" to be expressed in words at all.
But that is completely overshadow
ed by the heightened fertility that is
brought to the soil through the culti-
vation of the beet, and by the wealth
that may be gained when the by
products of sugar manufacture are
are used properly in the feeding of
cattle and hogs. The accruing bene-
fits are due to the fact that sugar beet
culture requires deep plowing, cleans
the field of weeds, promots the use of
fertilizers, directly and indirectly
supplies large quantities of fertilizer
which NAV be turned back upon the
land, and develops scientific rotation
of crops 1t is the greatest educator
among crops. This is so much the case
that beet-sugar factories find it neces-
sary to maintain highly trained agri-
cultural experts to advise the farmer
and instruct him. James Wilson, ex-
secretary of agriculture, said in one
of his reports that a sugar factory is
as helpful to community as gov
eminent experiment station, though it
costs the public nothing to maintain.
