Seven Varieties of Files.

Seven different varieties of flies
are found in our houses, SO per cent
of which are represented by the com
mon housefy. Flies lay their eggs
only In fermenting or decaying sub
stances-by preference in manure.
Hence every stable is a center of IN
lection unless periodically disinfected.
The fly maggot is also Matched out in
latrines and ashpit refuse, such as
bedding, straw, rags, paper, scraps of
meat, fruit, etc, on which substances
the larvae subsist after they hatch,
which occurs in about twelve days
after the egg has been laid. 1t is
estimated that single fly, laying 120
eggs at time. will produce a progeny
amounting to sextillions by the end
Of the season.
The numbers OF bacteria upon a
single fly have been proved to range
all the way from $50 to 100000. The
average for Ala flies which were ex-
amined at the agricultural experiment
station at Storrs, Conn, was 1850 900
bacteria apiece. This represents about
the number of bacteria that enter the
human system when someone swaI.
lows a glass of liquid into which some
NY has fallen. to be removed by a
slovenly waiter without the LIQUID be-
Ing thrown away.

May Lower Price Of RadIum.

Contracts for delivery of radium in
the early months of 1915 have been en-
tered into at price as low as $67.50 a
milligram, and there Is a widely prev
alent belief that there may be q great
fall In the price during the next two
years. 1t is interesting to note that for
some time after its discovery radium
could be procured at less than one
tenth of its present price. The de-
mand for radium to be used for medi-
cal purposes has hitherto absorbed the
output, and has led to rates being
quoted which are excessive and alto
gether artificial. The large profits OBJ
tanned have. however, stimulated
search for uranium ores in various
countries, notably in America, and as
there are unlimited quantities of low
grade uranium rocks available it
would appear to be merely question
of time before radium will be placed
on the market at price bearing a
reasonable ratio to the cost of its pro.
ducuon.

PROVES STRENGTH OF HEART
infaiIIbIe Test, According TO PromI-
nent Physician. 10 the Ability
to Hold the Breath.

DR.. w. A. Schtange. in a recent
| number OF the Roussky Vratch, ex'
plains why healthy person can sus.
pend breathing for from thirty to
forty seconds, or. with practice, for
three times as long. This depends,
the doctor asserts, not on the lung
capacity but upon the vigor of the
heart muscle. In word, the longer
you can hold your breath the greater
is your heart power persons with
weak hearts being unable to suspend
their breathing for more than twenty
or even ten seconds.
Doctor Schtange, who is a surgeon
of note, tests his patients in this novel
way before giving them a general
anesthetic, such as ether or chloro-
form. Seated in a chair, the patient
is instructed to take a deep inspira-
tion and. with the mouth closed, to
hold his breath as long as he can. The
longer he can hold 1t the less danger
will there be from the anesthetic,
and should he not be able to suspend
his breathing for as long as twenty
seconds, the anesthetic is. as the doc
tor says, "contra-indicated."

SURELY MAN or SUBSTANCE
Russian Brought with Him the Gold
to satisfy British immigration
Authorities.

A Russian who travelled to London
from the Tyneside to get a nephew out
of the clutches OF the immigration au-
thorities turned out to be a sort %
gold mine.
The man Is a cabinetmaker. To
prove that the boy had means OF sub
sistence he had filled his pockets with
sovereigns. The uncle declared trick
had been played on the lad. Although
he (the uncle) had bought him
ticket. the boy was induced to buy an
other ticket, some ticket seller abroad
having persuaded him that the one
which his uncle had sent him was not
available.
1T has cost me another $50 to bring
the boy to London" said the uncle.
He added that he wanted to bring
up the boy as his own. He drew from
q pocket two handfuls Of sovereigns
to show that he was able to do this.
Said the chairman. smiling: You
are q wealthy man. but you had better
look after your money" The uncle
produced more gold from another
pocket. I've had to work hard for
this" he said, and 'was about to reveal
more wealth when the court told him
that a boy with such q generous pro-
tector would, sof course. be admitted.

HAVE NOT SAME VIEWPOINT
Logic and Argument Mean One Thing
to Man and Another to q

Logic" Is the rock on which the
views Of man and woman split. He

that he argues only for the JOY Of hear.
ing his own wisdom. Each knows
that convincing the other Is gift
not granted by the high gods unto
mortals. But the knowing fails to
keep them from debating until debate
threatens to degenerate into wrangling
and feminine tears and masculine
vehemence Nof expression bid them
cease.
Each is right and both are wrong.
Man refuses to be convinced, woman
is incapable Of being convinced The
source OF the difficulty lies in the fact
that logic and argument, like truth.
mean one thing to him and another to
her Man enjoys argument. the pit

but woman dislikes 1t instinctiveIy,
even II she prove q winner. The rea-
son is that he is born for battle and
self-assertion. she for peace, whose
essence is self-denial, II not self-efface-
ment.
To man argument is q good deal Of
a mental game of chess. to woman 1t
is an earnest clash Of two PERSONAL
ties.
Man will wage wordy warfare with
man over the merits Of q point Of
honor or those of a security, and put
the best Of him into the intellectual
and verbal duel, and not seldom lose
his temper for the moment or the
hour; but when the war of words is
over he TRUSTS the affair behind him,
has no personal feeling as regards his
opponent and many even acknowledge
that there was foundation for opinions
he withstood. But woman argues
about the deeper feelings or thought |
in regard to such problems as poll

matter with terrible seriousness as |
an affair of life and death Her re.

THE GREATER HUM
'BOLDT Corporation

A brief report of the Greater Hum
boldt Corporation has been prepared
for its stockholders From it we find
that it was organized February 15,
1911, by San Francisco parties, three
of them being irrigation engineers Of
national repute. In April, 1912, f.
C. Mcclellan bought an interest in
the company, and was appointed man
ager, with full power to present the
project of conservation and use of the
surplus water of Humboldt valley to
the land owners and interest as many
as possible in it for their benefit; it
being understood that as far as possi-
bic the company was to be considered
as a trustee of the works to be con-
structed.
In accepting this position, Mr.. Me-
Clellan gave up his profession, that
had been bringing upwards of $4,000
a year to him, for salary of 800 q
month. His interest in the company
now is limited to half his salary paid
in stock at par and an agreement that
he expects to bring him 10 per cent.
The stock report shows only 3,511
shares out of the $4,000 shares that
are issued and not under company
control.
The book accounts show receipts in
cash and services of 81, 1915; due on
subscriptions, $4,673.15. Disburse-
ments of $50, 0,794.94. Balance Of re-
ceipts and dues over disbursements Of
2,070.06.
The estimates of future expenses Of
carrying the project up to the United
States for segregation of 100000 acres
of government Land is about $4,000,
divided as follows: u. S. fling fees,
81 $50; state fling fees, $1,000; COM
plete surveys, etc., $1,750; operating
expenses, $1,000.
To cover this amount, there is avail
able the $2,07094 due on subscrip-
tions for which stock has been issued,
and $3.50 pledged, but stock not is
sued.
The company is represented now by
over fifty land owners of the valley,
owning $4,000 acres of land mostly
under irrigation. They compose the
wealthiest class of resident land own
ers, most of them living at the upper
end of the valley.
A proof of feasibility of the pro.
jeet is given In statement of costs
and receipts of similar projects in
Ihaho, showin total costs of $40, 1885,
707ss and receipts Of $33 ,044,9 $50; or a
porft of 65 per cent. At this rate,
the profit on the project costing
81, 800 in this valley should be over
81 600, 900, to be received by not over
| 10000 shares of stock, or $3.50 q
share, if the management is carried
through as hoped for.

VOTE FOR RfPUB-
L|CAN CANDIDATES

The primaries today are determin-
ing the candidates who will be before
the electorate in November for cleo
zion to the various offices in state,
county and township.
In the state the Republicans are in
the fortunate position of having for
leader and candidate Governor Tasker
l.. Oddie, one of the best and most
notable public characters in the west.
The personality. career and public
life of Governor Oddie is clean,
honorable record. This, combined with
his personal popularity, makes his
election in November "cinch. - The
spirit of Republicanism is strong and
aggressively reenforees Governor Cd
die in successful campaign and from
present Indications it is Oddie's ele0.
tion in walk.
To strengthen the arms of Oddie il
is well for the voters to see to it that
the right sort of Legislators are elect
ed. The Humboldt Republicans have
selected candidates who in fitness
and ability win make excellent sup
porters of Oddie ideas of government
in Nevada. In an essential sense a
man fitted by intellect and who by ex-
perience has gained much useful
knowledge of value and service as a
good legislator is Floyd Harman, of
Winnemucca. He is a miner and a
versatile individual of clean record
and sound capacity whose election to
the assembly will add the sort of a
lawmaker Nevada needs.
Judge Shea, the other Republican
candidate, is likewise fitting selee-
tion for assembly. The election of
Harman and Shea is fttingly urged
and in their election Humboldt county
will gain able and honorable represen-
tatives. Make this a sure shot.

HAVE STRUCK
GOOD ORE AT LAST

Struck good ore at last is the
cheering statement in a letter that
Sam Flynn, the principal push in the
National Buckskin Mines company re-
ceived from Manager Martin last ev-
ening.
For two months the workers have
been encountering values and for
some time have been following three
stringers of ore or veinlets carrying
values. The work was pushed along
these lines with view to encounter
ing large vein ahead of it. 1t is evil
dent that these veins have merged
and formed good ore body.
The management, ever since the
small veins were being followed, have
Leen bulls as to the value and i'm
portanee of this evidence. and finally
their confidence is being realized, as
Martin s communication conveys.
1--WE have struck good ore at last.
No mining persistence or consist
eney has a greater cause for reward
than have Messrs. Flynn and Martin.
The great work accomplished on the
property is due to the energy, persist
ence and rustling qualities Of these
two men. In and out of season they
struggled and toiled against disad-
vantages to make inning on Buck
skin mountain and from this latest
flash they are on the winning road.
The National Buckskin mines is
situated north of the rich Bell prop
crty and south of the National high
grade mine. The property is in fine
territory and as a neighbor of the two
bonanza properties the mineral area,
from the standpoint of practical min
ing, would have great value if never
up to the present pick had been
struck into it, but now that the prop
erty has good at depth in a long
tunnel penetrating mighty Buckskin
mountain the value of the property is
richly assured.
The Hatch operations, backed by a
rich Chicago syndicate, is close to the
endline of the Flynn Martin property,
the operations of which are respon-
sive to ''Struck good ore at last. -

GOOD PROSPECTS FOR
WHEELER NATIONAL LEASE

1t is gratifying to know that L. @.
Wheeler is resuming operations at
National. The Wheeler National
Leasing company has acquired addi-
tional area in the great mineral CEN
ter of National. The same veins and
conditions of the National Mines,
which has given to the world q great
er wealth than that which immortaliz-
ed King Solomon, passed into and
through the Wheeler lease area 1t
is determined that the very vein up
on which the National Mines has re-
Gently struck such a new body Of
bonanza ore is an entry into the
new gold producer the old vein sys-
tenn further south from which ap-
proximately up to the present time
$S,000,000 gross in gold and silver has
been extracted passes and is part of
the area under control to the Wheeler
National Leasing & Mining company.
The persistence of DIR. Wheeler is
commendable and to his faith is due
the reward which it is believed will
be his lot in the near future for he,
assured, has by every line of mine
making reason, block Of ground and
connections which from any mineral
viewpoint has the conditions out of
which fortunes are dug and wherein
arc lodged a wealth that needs but be
explored in order to enrich poor men
and has transformed ordinary pros
pectors tnd supporters time and again
into milhonaires.
