PATRONIZE HOME INDUSTRY.

Elsewhere in this issue will be found
the advertisement of the Yerington
Creamery Company calling upon the
people of the community to patron
ize the creamery. We take it from
this that merchants and families are
buying butter from other sources. If
SO, it is very short-sighted policy. The
Yerington Creamery is one of the
manufacturing institutions in this val
ley that is providing means for the
farmers to turn their produce into
money and get regular monthly pay
day. 1t should be furnished with three
or four times the cream it now re-
ceives and everybody should patron
ize the institution to make it a Sue
cess. The creamery is in competent
hands and is turning out a superior
grade of butter. Butter from this
creamery took the premium at the re-
cent State Fair in Reno. Merchants,
especially, should make a speciality
of the home production. The creamery
affords the farmers a means of secur
ing ready money to pay their store
bills and makes business in many
ways. Patrons should call for Yer
ington Creamery butter when they
purchase at the stores. If the COM
munity cannot consume a portion of
the product of a home institution
in business to demonstrate what can
be done with our home resources

NEWLANDS' RECORD.

If you really want to know Senator
Newlands' record since he has been
Congressman and United States Sen
ator from Nevada, you want to pro-
cure copy of the Reno Gazette of
yesterday, October 2, 1914, and read
the speech of Sam Plat, delivered at
the opera house in Reno on the night
of October |. There is very little to
the record that has not been pub
lished in the Times in the past twelve
years but it is put together by Mr.
Plat in such shape that there is no
chance to doubt it and the references
to the Congressional Record are
given, also the credit for the recla
nation act is given where it belongs,
not taking any credit away from New
lands which belongs to him. He voted
for the measure. Would not any Sen
ator or Representative from this State
have done the same? The man who
pulled the measure through Congress,
however, was President Roosevelt
and as far back as the time of Sena-
tors Stewart and Jones reclamation
measures were introduced and advo-
Gated, not only for Nevada but for
the entire country The fact is pre-
scented that Mr.. Newlands was very
10th to extend the time of payments
for settlers on Nevada lands to 20
wears insead of 10 and declared that
to change the law would be to repudi
ate the contracts the settlers had
made. Election was coming on, how
ever, and something had to be done,
so the measure was introduced by
Newlands and the time of payment
was extended to 20 years, after the
Senator had been urged for many
years to do his. AS it is, anyone now
taking up land under the reclamation
project must agree to pay 500 per acre
for water instead of $50. Maybe the
reclamation act has been great thing
for Nevada, but with Platt in the Uni
ted States Senate we will try to see
that the settlers coming to locate IN
Nevada do not have to pay back to
tie government this cost of construc
ton for storing water any more than
the people OF the East and South pay
back the cost of dredging and levying
the great streams of that country.

"JESUS PAID 1T ALL"

Refused Notice" Every editor has
received them The postmaster sends
them to the editor For instance,
there is man by the name of John
Blank who refused to take his paper
out of the postoffice. He did not
want it any longer, and we wondered
what was the matter. Upon investi-
gator of our subscription book we
found that John was short $3.50. He
stopped the paper as a matter OF
economy to us. One evening we went
to church and Johns melodious voice
rang out loud and clear in that soul
stirring old song, Jesus Paid it All.
We might have been mistaken, but
his earnestness impressed us. The
next day we sent him receipt in full
begging his pardon for not knowing
he had made arrangements for his
liabilities in that manner-Loomis

ANOTHER PLANK SMASHED

1--WE favor a single Presidential
term and to that end we urge the
adoption of an amendment to the
Constitution to make the President of
the United States ineligible for re-
election, and we pledge the candidate
of this convention to this principle. y
Did you ever read the above para
graph before seeing it here? Prob
ably you have, but you may forgotten
what it is. 1t is one of the planks
(verbatim) of the Democratic plat
form of 1912 That structure has been
pretty badly smashed in the past
twelve months. First the Democrats,
after securing Office, sawed the plank
in two which held up free Panama
tolls for American ships; next came
the masterful diplomacy giving Col
ombo twenty million dollars for some
thing we already owned and the pass
ing of tariff law that has ruined
the sugar industry of this country
after the promise to the South that no
legislation would be done which would
be detrimental to their interests. And
now Wilson is candidate for re-elec-
ton, Notwithstanding his party de
clared in 1912 for only one Presidential
term What's Democratic platform
good for, ANYWAY?

This handy little notebook was
made with the aid Of two pretty pic
ture postcards. In making 1t, two
pieces of stiff cardboard are cut out
larger by a half an inch each way
than the cards. s.s
These pieces of cardboard are
smoothly covered on both sides with
silk, the edges afterwards being fin
ished off with fine silk cord carried
into two little loops, turned inwards
at the corners. 5 Nh 3
To complete the cover Of the book.
the two sides are bound together at
the back with narrow ribbon.
For the interior of the book. the I'M
used half-sheets of notepaper may
well be used, They can be cut to At
and folded in the center, and can be
secured in their place by a silk cord
run through the center of the book
and tied in loops at the back, with
the ends knotted and frayed out into
tassels. !f%5 Hex IN .-r. sa
The small sketch illustrates the

which the silk cord holds the paper
In place, and when they have all been
used, they may be replaced in a mo-
ment by merely slipping a new set of
half-sheets under the cord.
Photographs Of views or portraits
are the most suitable kind of cards to
select for this purpose, and this little
book would make a present that would
please one of the little ones very
much, especially SO II his or her por-

GOOSE OIL FOR TOILET SOAP
Properly Perfumed,l II 10 Invaluable,
Especially II the Hands Are
chapped or Rough.

From four to six pounds OF clear
goose oil comes from goose while
roasting. This can be utilized In
making a delightful toilet soap To
four pounds Of goose oil add two
pounds of mutton fat. one can of
potash, one quart Of cold water, two
level tablespoonfuls of salt. four level
tablespocnfuls of powdered borax and
five drops Of oil or rose. Melt the
goose and mutton fat and strain
through cheesecloth. Then measure.
using large pail, and pour into a good
sized pan. FL 4.
Add the water, salt and borax to the
potash and stir occasionally. When
cold and the potash is dissolved, pour
it in fine stream into the fat stir
ring constantly. The fat should be
cold, but not thick. Stir for ten min
utes, or until as thick as honey. Then
add the perfume and pour into shallow
pans lined with paper. Allow to stand
until firm. Remove from the pans and
cut into cakes. This is excellent for
chapped or rough hands.

They are very attractive pieces of fur
niture, for furniture they are, mostly
in the shape of a cabinet of one kind

in evidence. It need only be one strip

emit one tone, and to get the chime
tones, three and four strips are needed.
A leather-covered mallet accompanies

use this is suspended from a little
hook designed for 1t. n n

DETERMINE COURSE or SUN
Scientists Give Great Luminary 4oo,-
600 Years to Reach Apex That
Il 10 Making For. -

In according with the recognition
of two independent streams or drifts
OF stars, and the discovery that the
sun belongs to one OF them, revision
became necessary Of the determine
ton of the path of the sun in space.
Liable Moreux sums up In Sc1entia
the recent work which has been done
in ascertaining what is called the
solar apex, beginning with that OF
Professor Kopold Of Kiel, who was
the first to bring to light in 1908 the
systematic error which has been In
troduced in all previous determlna-
tons of this point.
1t is clear that this error might be-
come considerable 4 while the sun
were moving toward the apex of Its
own path it were also part of a swarm
of stars moving with it. The rede-
termination of the direction of the
suns path among the stars has been
accompanied by new investigation
OF the speed at which the solar sys-
tenn moves in space. The new tnves-
tigation, which has only been under
taken systematically since the begin
ming of the century, depends for its
results on the application of the prtn-
ciple that the wave length of ray
of light must alter according as the
source of light is moving toward or
away from the observer. To apply
it to the particular problem before US
it becomes necessary to compare the
radial movements Of large number
of stars situated in the direction fol-
lowed by the sun with the radtal
movements Of the stars which the
solar system Is leaving behind. %
Movements OF approach would be
in the majority in the first case;
movements Of departure would be
dominant in the second. By striking
mean, relatively to the movements
of the stars employed in the calcu-
lation, the speed Of movement Of the
solar system might be arrived al.
When, all the new determinations arc
correlated the following seem to be
the results which embody the sun OF
observations up to the present time:
That the sun Is being carried in the
direction of the constellation OF
Lyra, probably aiming at point in
the neighborhood of the star Vega,
and a little to the south Of it; and that
the speed Of its path Is somewhere be-
tween 20 and "a kilometers second.
If Vega we're no farther away than
our nearest neighbor Alpha Centauri,
the sun would reach its goal in 10000
years at latest, or $4,000 years at
earliest But Vega is nearly six times
as far away, and the. solar apex will
not therefore be reached for some
400, 900 years. Il, 4 ;s.5 ..ssS.t ri

Manners In Russia.

Nine. Viardot, the famous musician,
gives one poor impression of Rus
sian manners from the account she
narrates in her Memories and Adven-
lures, of a visit to the Crimea in 1886.
Their want of logic" amused her.
1T enables them to be scrupulously
clean in their persons" she says. "and
yet they are not nice in their table
manners. One substitutes his finger
for his fork; another drinks out of the
cream-jug, third cools his perspiring
brow with the break-knife."
But, If their manners were doubtful,
their music was divine. 1.-THE whole
nation is thoroughly musical, down to
the lowest" And in the matter Of
manners, as in other things, Russia
has travelled a long way since 1886.
