Tuscarora Mill Burned

Reports reached Elko early We'd
nesday morning that the big Dexter
mill at Tuscarora was completely de-
stroyed by fire that day.
1t is believed that the fire was of
incendiary origin, as the mill has not
been used for several months and
was supposed to be locked, says the
Free Press. No one has been al
lowed to enter the building and feel
ing runs high in the mining town.
The mill was built several years
ago, and when Haskins took over
the mines at Tuscarora the company
spent $65, 900 on additional machin-
cry and in installing a cyaniding
plant, together with other expensive
machinery. All was burned and the
loss is estimated at $150,000.

Reading the Barometer

Do you properly understand a ba-
rometer? Many people tap the
glass. note a rise or fall, say it will
therefore be wet or fine and there
end. But there's more in baromet-
rical science than that. The follow
ing key might be cut out for refer
ence:
Asteady rise shows that fine wealth
er may be expected and in Winter
frost. A rapid rise indicates unset
tied weather. Fine weather immedi-
ately after a rise must not be expect
ed to last. The barometer often
rises from a northward change in
the wind. A fall of half a tenth or
more in an hour is a sure warning of
a storm. A fall with a low Their
mometer foretells snow or rain; with
a rising thermometer wind or rain
from the south. A fall in winter
indicates warmer weather; in hot
weather, thunder. Fine weather
may occur witha low glass, but il
precedes wind or rain. The rise or
fall of a barometer rather than its
absolute height shows an approaching
change. so the usual words Fair"
Change" ETC., cannot always be
depended on. The rise from a low
point indicates the close approach of
gales. -London Answers.

ICE HARVEST UNDER WAY
Temperature At Carlin, Nevada,
and Pure Humboldt River Water
Offer Ideal Conditions

Elko Free Press: The ice harvest
at Carlin is now in full swing and the
Southern Pacific Company have 1O(
men at work filling the Western Pa
cifc icehouse with the best grade
of ice that has yet been harvested.
The building will hold 5000 tons and
it is expected that the force at work
will be able to handle this amount OF
ice this week, when the company will
start filling their own ice houses and
$50 additional men will be put to
work. The present houses of the
Southern Pacific at Carlin have a ca
pacity of $4,000 tons, and in addi-
ton to this there will be shipped out
at least 500 carloads to the various
icing stations of the two railroads.
The ice is of exceptionally good
quality, being IA inches thick and as
clear as crystal. The Southern Pa
cifc Company have decided to make
Carlin headquarters instea d of
Truckee. as it has been found that
the ice crop is more certain at the
Nevada point than at Truckee, and
appropriations have been made for
the enlargement of the plant and the
ice pond. The pond is dry during
the year until the middle of Novem-
Der when huge pumps are started
pumping the pure water from the
Humboldt river and Maggie creek
into the pond, which covers Is acres,
with al average depth of four feet,
and the pumps are kept going day
and night until after the ice crop has
been gathered. The pond is lighted
by means of electric bulbs strung
around the border of the pond, and
the work is rushed with all possible
speed once the ice is thick enough
for use.
The plant gives employment to 80
men during the icing season and all
the refrigerator Ears are re-iced at
this point. for both the Western Pa
ciic and the Southern Pacific.
1t is a very interesting sight to see
the way in which the ice is harvested,
as the most modern methods are en-
ployed, and it is astonishing the
amount of ice the crew is able to
handle, and is well worth a trip to
the pond.

Winnemucca Star: Frank Carpen-
ter of Jackson Mountain last year
engaged in hog raising on a small
scale and his success proves that this
is a profitable industry for small
farmers if they will give it proper
attention. Starting with a herd of
IA hogs. he sold this year so pigs
when five months old at Sc each and
has rs more left, which he is fatten-
ing for market. The only feed used
except for fattening purposes was
alfalfa. raised on his ranch. Mr..
Carpenter says he finds it much more
profitable to convert his hay into
pork than to sell it at Sc per ton. as
he would have had to do otherwise.
Other small ranchers would doubt
less find it to the interest of their
bank accounts to follow Mr.. Carpen-
ter's example and engage in hog
raising.

Aviator's Christmas Day Visit
Causes England Agitation and
Fear of German Invasion

From Sundays Salt Lake Tribune
So far as results were concerned
Christmas week was so devoid o.
them that the period seemed almos
as if a truce had been declared, ane
yet there was furious fighting OF
every day of the week. The Allie:
continued to hurl themselves against
the German defenses from Newport
on the coast of Flanders, to a point
in Alsace near the Swiss frontier. Al
the same time the Teutonic allie:
have been attacking the Russians
from the Carpathian mountains to
the northern border of Poland. Fol
nearly ten days the Russians have
been defending themselves in the
region of Warsaw and north and
south of that city. 1t is apparent
that the German advance has been
checked, at least temporarily. The
losses in both the western and eastern
war zones have been heavy, and yet
neither side has gained a decisive
victory.
England is again agitated by fear
of a German invasion. Defensive
works have been completed all around
London and at many coast points.
For the first time since the war began,
German aviators have been scouting
along the English coast. A birdman
made his appearance early in the
week at Dover, which is an English
naval base. and dropped a bomb. On
Christmas day two or three German
aviators appeared at different points,
and one of them was engaged in
battle by two Engliah aviators and
driven out to sea. What the appear
ance of the German s couts may pre-
sage the English do not know. II
may be only an attempt to keep the
English worried and nervous. On
the other hand, the German naval
authorities may be anxious to deter
mine the exact location of the Eng.
lish battle fleet. Some Of the Eng
fish warships have bombarded the
German positions near Newport. but
the English are not risking any OF
their dreadnoughts in such opera
tons.
Some activity has at length been
displayed by the Austrian naval
forces. A submarine was sent out
into the Gulf of Otranto to attack a
fleet of French warships, and sue
ceeded in landing n or two tor
pedoes. The French say that one of
their battleships was struck but only
slightly damaged. The Austrians
say that two French warships were
hit, but that the damage could not
be ascertained owing, to the confu-
sion. Meantime a French submarine
tried to sink an Austrian warship in
the Austrian naval harbor at Polo,
but was sunk and her crew captured.
An odd development of the war
has been the cession by Russia of
that portion of Sakhalin island which
it did not cede to Japan at the end
of the Russo-Japanese war. Now
Russia surrenders all its right in ex-
change for heavy guns. which pre-.
sumably are required for siege op-
erations against Austria and Ger
many.
Five German aeroplanes passed
over Sochaczew, Russian Poland
which the Germans have been at
lacking unsuccessfully for a week,
and dropped bombs, killing eight and
wounding more that 100 persons. A
German Zeppelin flew over Nancy,
in France. and dropped IA bombs,
Two persons we're killed and two
wounded.

BUILDERS MUST LOOK ELSEWHE
 FOR FINANCING
Local Banks Not in Position to Help In Building
 Operations.

Bridgeport banks will probably not be able to take care of the build1ng opera tions that are now projected for the housing of new families lns this city. Outside capital will have to be drawn to this city, for the FederaA Reserve banks cannotibe drawn upon in the present emergency
 These facts became known today through Charles G. Sanford, d1rec- tor in the regional bank system re centlv inaugurated under Federal d1- rection.
 Banks in this city" said MT. San ford, twill go the limit in financing building operations here. but the emergency is so disproportionate to what might ordinarily be expected that local banks will not, be able to care for the situation if it lcontin- 11es to increase as it has recently. '
 An interesting fact has been. dis closed by MT. Sanford in relation to the Federal reserve banks. During the time it has been in force no Bridgeport National bank has yet found it necessary to discount paper under the act.
 Federal reserve directors have the authority to advance loans upon short time discountings for building purposes. National banks, however, are not allowed. under the law. to make such loans. Inasmuch as there is no savings bank or trust company here known as a member of the Fed eraI reserve system. the money that might otherwise flow into Bridgeport building operations is restricted.
 That there is consid erable reserve

REMINGTON GUARDS,
 UNDULY VIGlLANT,
 PANHANDLE PUBLIC.
Passersby Near Restricted Property of. Arms Plant
 Are Closely Watched.

Startling, episodes are reported to the Remington Arms & Ammunition Co. by guards doing duty near the magazines in the northeast section of Bridgeport. Whether there is basis to believe. that German sympathizers have been plotting to destroy the magazines, whether the zeal of the guards has. been overwrought by. the military. tactics introduced at the Arms Co by Major Walter G. Pen field, or they overstepped their au- thority at command is not yet known. but the fact that a foreign appearfng man walking outside the companv's property was forcibly captured and taken inside the conpany's property became known today.
 Early Thursday morning, an tn- spector and a guard patrolling the property outside of magazine 225. which is located in close proximity to the old swimming hole, observed someone acting "suspicious1y'' The man was outside the high wire fence and not within the company's prop- erty.
 He was grasped. roughly. dragged within the gate and forcibly carried to a "guardhouse'' on the Remington U M. c. property. There he was subjected to such handling that he is reported by the guards as hav1n 2 1dl4Sn upoe1 HIS k1leeS and 1nnp1Ored mercy. He was not released until & o'clock this morning and the report made to the chiaf guard shows that the man claimed to have come from New York. to have acted in an insane manner but had nothing on his per- son which would have damaged the property or implicated him in a plot to inJure the ompany.
 Several instances of like character where guards. not special policemen. have stepped off private property to become involved with the public are reported, chief among which was the assault upon a New York newspaper- man at-Boston avenue in the presence of Major Penf1e1d. about which no official police action has been record 1 ed,

Fairfield Go. Milk
 Dealers on Carpet

Seven milk dealers from Fairfield county were before Dairy and Food Com missioner Frank H. StadtmueIIer at Hartford yesterday, at hearings given for the purpose of explaining why they had sold milk below the standard It cropped out that one of the alleged vfelators of the food law kept several Holstefn cows and also few Guernsey cows and that he was selling the product from some of. the latter at premium. or at the price of 5 cents quart, to few GUS toners who would pay the sprice and the taking of this amount of. the rich milk from the total production which he sold to the common run of cus- toners made the residue of his pro- duet below the standard, hence his citation before the commissi oner Ger tain cows may give milk below tn standard and the dealers may sell it provided that they let it be known that it is below the required standard. but, they cannot sell it for the price of standard milk. The violators were instructed as to the intent of the law and let off with a substantial warn ing as it was their first offense
