his technical education in the ssricul.

II Is his belief from his observations
since last September, when his work
in Fallon began, that dairying and hog
raising will be the salvation of the
farmers on the government project.
These. he believes, will be the princi-
pal money raisers, and ne has already
done great deal 10 encourage the
farmers along those lines. He also
thinks that turkeys will be a great
side product. II is expected that next
years production will be about twelve
thousand turkeys.

they are opcn-minded and are willing

COMMISSION
REVIEWS ALL
LICENSES
NOT, HOWEVER, UNTIL HOLDERS
ARE WARNED AGAINST
GAMBLING IN THEIR
HOUSES

The county commissioners In ses.
sion yesterday and today considered
the matter of granting licenses for
selling liquor, which matter was laid
over at the last regular meeting.
After considerable investigation of
complaints all licenses applied for
were granted, not however, until a
warning was given that all alleged
gambling must cease.
The board investigated the com.
plant that certain houses of the re-
stricted district were conducted in
disorderly manner, but found il hard
to establish that any such place can
be cldssed as orderly. that they we're
all very much the same only that some
were worse than others. After due
consideration all applications were
granted. The matter OF revoking the
license of Jessie Ward was laid over
for further consideration.
Several persons appeared before
the board against whom complaints
were filed and made statements. Ac-
cording to these statements Elko is
and has been just as We all like 20
see il. one of the clcanost towns
morally in the state.
While there is no doubt that more
or less gambling has been going on
IN the past which the officers have
been trying to stop, it is also true
that the general moral condition has
been lar above the average western
town. And the holding up of all the
licenses for time will have a good
influence. 1t will serve as a warning
That all saloons and other places must
keep within reasonable ground.
