TO ASSIST NEVADA RANCHERS

Information on farming topics
is to be given out at the University
of Nevada henceforth from an in
formation bureau instead of in less
business-like and more haphazard
manner, as in the past, says the
Reno Gazette, Director S. B..
Doten, of the Experimental Sta
zion, has instituted the change, fol-
lowing the shifting of departments
in his charge into lew rooms and
the installation Of a new scienti-
fc laboratory for his own use.
1t is estimated that an average
of a dozen inquiries a day reach
the university from all over the
covering every branch Of
farming and household manage
ment from the best way to plant
alfalfa to the best way to get rid Of
insect pests.
Under the new system these in
quiries will be answered by one
person, who, though not an expert
will gather the required Informs
tim from experts of the Expert
mental Station staff or from the
extensive agricultural libraries UNI
der their direction. By centraliz-
ing this work it is believed better
service with less work and dupli-
cation will result.

A LITTLE.HISTORY

The Carson Appeal never misses
an opportunity to harp ION Elko
county. 1t claims that its people,
especially the cattlemen, have been
lodging their taxes for years. 1t
still publishes the exploded story
that its tax rate this year will not
exceed 80 cents on the $500 and
claims that it is "a rate never be-
fore heard of in Nevada" In this
the Appeal shows that it does not
know much about the financial his
tory of Elko county.
For its information, we will say
that for several years the tax rate
in this county for county purposes
was 80 cents on the S1OO and for
State and County it was $3.50 on
the 500. But this was before so
many commissions and other tax
eating jobs were created by the
Legislature and fastened upon the
people.
The Appeal seems to think thai
these commissions and jobs are
sacred, but that feeling is not
shared by those who pay the taxes.
The state is cursed today with too
many officers drawing fat salaries.
The people are waking up on this
score and the time is not far dis
tant when a good many now at the
public trough will have to rustic
for a living.
The Appeal goes into Mysteries
over what it believes is a scheme of
the cattlcmen to abolish the state
tax commission. At the present
time we are unable to see why the
5sockmen of the state should want
the tax commission abolished. Has it
not already favored the cattlemen
by giving them an arbitrary reduc-
ton of % per cent of the number
of their cattle and assessed the
other rs per cent at less than so
per cent of their value? We do not
believe that they are ready to kill
the goose that laid this golden egg.
Personally the writer has favored
the tax commission as a necessary
part of our taxation machinery,
but since the cattlemen took it
into camp so easily, we confess our
confidence in it is badly shaken.

mrn's agreement" whereby 25 per
cent of the value of their property
would be knocked off and the re-
mainder be assessed for less than
30 per cent of its value? Every
body should be treated alike.
Verdi, Sparks. Reno, Carson and
Virginia were shaken by an earth
quake yesterday forenoon. At
Reno the shock lasted about 80 sec
onds and caused people to flock
from their homes into the street.
There was considerable excitement
but the damage was slight. Verdi
had the worst shock. Carson and
Virginia City suffered no damsgc of
consequence. The shock was not
felt west of the Sierras.

W. {. WARES PLAN ACCEPTED

The Industrial School commits
sion was in session nearly all day
yesterday and up to noon today,
considering the different plans pre-
sented by the architects. The task
of selecting the best plan for the
school wae not an easy one, as each
plan had specia! merit. The plan
submitted by Architect DeLonchant
of Reno, the only Nevadan archi-
tect who competed. was considered
very favorsbly, but as it did not
provide for a fire proof building,
as called for by The board, could
not be selected.
After full consideration Of all the
plans submitted the board unani-
mously accepted the plan submitted
by Ware & Treganza of Salt Lake
City. This plan provides for a two
story and basement fire-proof
building. The basement is to be 9
feet high, the first story 10 feet
and the second 9 feet. The founda-
ton walls are to be Of concrete and
the first and second story exterior
walls of brick, faced with pressed
brick. Stairs and floors to be of
reinforced concrete. Bearing par
titions to be of brick or concrete
and minor partitions of hollow
partition blocks. The kitchen, pam
tries, etc, + located outside of
the main building. There are two
dormitOries and two school rooms
provided in tie main buildings, he
side a sick room, living rooms,
bath rooms, etc.
The plans if faithfully carried
out will give the state an excellent
building and the unfortunate in
mates all the comforts of u home.

WOUND PROVED FATAL

Albert E. Jarvis Jr., age fifteen
years succumbed Saturday morning
to surgical shock and exhaustion.
He was operated upon last Sunday
evening following an accident in
which he shot himself through the
right knee with a 45 caliber revolt
yer.
The unfortunate youth, his sister
and several other children were last
Sunday afternoon climbing over
the rocks on Columbia Mountain
when the girl found two old revolt
vers. She handed them to her
brother and, in handling them he
pulled the trigger of one, not sup
posing it 10 be loaded. The gun
was discharged and the bullet shat
tered his knee joint passing entire
ly through it.-Goldfeld Tribune.

NEVADA'S EXTRA JUDGE

Senator Pittman's bill to add an
other U. s. judge to the district of
Nevada provides for regular
terms Of the district court at Car
o City on the first MONDAYS In
February, May and October. In
the discretion of the judges Of the
court, such term or terms shall be
held at such time and place With
in the counties of Esmeralda, Hum
bnldt. Nye and White Pine as they
may from time to time sppoint."
If the bill should become a law,
citizens of Elko county having bust
ness before the u. s. court would
save the expense Of travelling from
Winnemucca to Carson. While
this would benefit a few people We
are still of the opinion that one u.
s. judge can handle all the court
business in this State. The peo-
ple OF the counties named would
reap q greater benefit than those
Of this county, but even that does
not justify the creation Of another
judgship and the officers necessary
to carry on the court.

vas severe st that paint. loose
rocks falling in the drifts. and a
cracking noise like a cave-in. His
first thought was that the old
slopes near the stations had started
to come. He came to the conclus-
ion that an earthquake had occur
red and phoned to the surface at
once to ascertain if any damage
had been done about town. Men
working in the Wine report a
grinding noise and loose roek stuff
ing off. and sounds like distant
thunder. Their first belief was that
a etope had caved somewhere, al
though there was very little yibra-
ton and very slight conclusion.
Elsewhere in the Northend mines,
the shock was felt with about the
same sensations reported. On the
1000 foot level of the Con vir-
ginia, heavy 6xl2 splitters between
two tunnel sets were broken off
like toothpicks, but no further
breaking of timbers was found on
that level. The engineer at the
surface felt the shock and thought
at first there was trouble on the
cage and slowed down until it was
found out that all was right on the
main shaft.
In Gold Hill, the shake was YER
perceptible in the Yellow Jacket
Shaft and incline, but in the Grown
Point and Belcher was only slight
ly felt. The experience of an earth
quake underground is not one Of
the pleasantest imaginable, espec-
tally one of the severity of this
morning Virginia Chronicle.
