Lard Made From Corn OH.


After determining that corn oil is
an economic substitute for olive oil,
Dean L. E. Sayre of the Kansas Uni
versity School Of Pharmacy is expert
menting to determine whether 1t is a
satisfactory substitute for lard. Some
Of the liquid oil, which is heavy and
brown, has been hydrogenated. In
this condition 1t appears white and has
about the consistency of cocoa butter,
and melts at the temperature of bees
wax. Dean Sayre has been expert
menting with corn oil for more than a
year. He found that 1t makes a good
substitute for olive oil in salad dress
ings, and believes that the hydrogen
ated oil can be used in place of lard.

THOROUGHBRED ANIMALS
FROM TOM SHORT RANCH

On Wednesday John Lawton Butler
and VIM. Mendes passed through
Ely on their return from Tom
Shorts ranch in Elko county, where
they purchased a number of thor
oughbred animals for their Currant
Creek and Duckwater ranches. Mr..
Butler secured ten head of thorough
bred and registered cows which will
be used on his ranch for breeding
purposes, while Mr.. Mendes secured
a three year old thoroughbred bull,
which took down the prize at the
Missouri state fair two years ago.
Mr.. Short, who Is n of the pio-
neers of Elko county undoubtedly
has the finest herd OF thoroughbred
shorthorns in the state. Warden
DickersOn of the ~penitentiary, who
Is also in charge of the state farm,
after looking over various herds in
California, came TO this conclusion,
and purchased several animals for
the state farm from Mr.. Shorts
herd. Mr.. Mendes already has a
herd of thoroughbred cattle on his
ranch. but nothing quite equal to
the animal purchased from Mr.. Short.
Mr.. Butler recently purchased the
Horton ranch at Surrant creek. which
he hopes within a few years to make
one OF the finest ranch properties in
the entire stately Record.

AT every election time an ideal citi-

be filled. The salary is good and the
duties important. Which man of them
all is best fitted for the position?'
How many Of us go at it in this
way? Even those who feel that way
do no stick together. and between
voting men in. for friendship or SYM
pathy, self interest or prejudice. we
get what we get.
NO man should vote an applicant
into office whom he would not take
into his own employ in n confidential
capacity. Partisan politics should
have nothing to do in the local cleo
tons. Nothing should be considered
but fitness and honesty.
ut is time the men and women who
have the interest of the community at
heart should think of these things. If
they are neglected much longer, the
remedy will hurt. The primary and the
election are the remedies. Begin in
time and make sure of the govern
