Especial to The News and Obserg.

Noun Olive, Jan. 9.-Nicholas
Long, n Of the Oldest and best
known citizens here, engaged in the
mercantile business, was the victim
on Thursday night of one Of the
boldest pieces Of robbery committed
here in years.
While on his way home from his
place of business hat night, when
near his home, an unknown negro sud-
denly appeared, who threw him
down, Snatched his watch and chain
from his clothing and fled. Mr..
Long being old and in quite feeble
health for sometime past, the robber
had no difficulty in doing what he
did do, but, perhaps from fright,
after securing the watch and chain,
he FASTENED away without attempting
further harm, and his identity re.
| main a mystery.

Dairy HushandmAn. UniversIty OF

Dairy Husbandman. UniversIty OF
Nevada
Nevada IL Just waking up to the fact
that dairy cows are = necessafy adj
junct to every farming community.
Farmers are getting tired Of selling
their alfalfa hay to cattlemen at
from three to I'VE dollars q ton. The
large ranches which are near good
ranges must continue to handle stock
cattle, but the small farms of from so
to 160 acres can pay much better II
handled more intensively.
With the change from, stock cattle
to dairy cattle there must be many
cheRges1iR methods. The feed which
would' sdpport'a COW whose only work
was to support a calf, Is not sufficient
for the high producing dairy COW
which gives milk enough to feed three
calves or more. The open field into
which SO many stock cattle are turn
ed In the winter is not Sufficient shell.
ter for the thin:sRfn1sd dairy COW.
10 be sure, the dairy cow can exist
under exposed conditions. but It takes
SO much feed to keep her warm that
she Is unable to eat enough to both
keep her warm and supply a large
amount of butterfat.
In the valleys where farmers still
keep stock cattle, milking them only
during the fiushsof the season, there
is a strong sentiment against milking
I do not wonder at II, for the cows. do
not produce enough butterfat to more
than pay for the feed CONSUMED, a
nothing of labor, and the calf. which
would have been fairly strong II al
lowed to run with its mother. Is OF
ten a weakling, especially when the
feeding is left to careless employees.
Where the majority of the farmers
have bought dairy cattle and handled
them as dairy cattle should be handled
dairying has paid.
At present, there are nine creamer-
les cooperating in Nevada. Besides these
creameries there are about 10 home
Gaifies making butter from 20 to so
cows. and about 1000 farmers each
making butter from two or three cows.
There are no cheese ~factories bttying
milk. but about 20 farmers make up
the milk from their own herds into
cheese. These herds, as a rule, are
small, from s to 10 COWS each, but one
or two herds have more than so head
of cows: Besides this, the butterfat
from about $50 cows is being shipped
out of the state.
Now, with all these manufacturing
outfits, there are less than 10000 milk
cows in the state. The problem then
is to get more good cows; not the
cheapest cows we can get from the
CASTOR herds of our neIshborfng states
but good. young cows from healthy

Tho majority OF the crsameriss IN Ne

depending on the overrun to pay sx-
penses and profits. It would be hard
to run even q small creamery with

would require approximately 80
pounds overrun a day. or an output
Of at least $50 pounds of butter daily.
Some Of the creameries OF the state
ire making less than that amount.
consequently they cannot pay the mar
ket price for butterfat, because the
overrun is not: sufficient to pay ex-
penses. This discourages the farmers
and some are inclined to go back to
raising hay and selling It to stoclmen.
This makes 1t stll harder to run the
small creamery, SO there is no wonder
some are Obliged to shut down.
The only remedy for this condition
is more cows and better housing and
care for the cows we have.

Brotherhood Glass Bang net

The annual banquet and together"
of the Brotherhood Class of the Method
ist church was held on Wednesday even
ing last On that occasion about 100
men made up the number, which besides
the members included a few invited
guests. At eight o'clock a splendid BAN
quet, prepared by the ladies of the church,
was served, the piece de resistance being
chicken pie. 1t was well prepared and
finely served, the walters being several of
the young men of the church.
After the feast came Informal remarks
by a numbers OF the members, which in
cluded Ashton Midget, Cecil Palmer,
c. F. Smith, Henry Waite and others,
who spoke of the welfare and work of
the brotherhood. Prof. Reynolds spoke
interestingly concerning good citizenship
and the need of additional accommoda-
tons, new school building, for the local
school interests.
The address of the evening, however,
was by Senator Dillingham;, who gave
an ouoiSSs upon lhS iCSuiIs vi NSthOu-
dism, its persistent work. its active
work, its progressive work and its heart
to-heart work, which has brought about
great results. He also had good word
for the work of like character by other
denominations. The address was in the
Senator's usual happy manner and was
both interesting and instructive.
With the singing of "Blest Be the Tie
That Binds" the pleasant occasion came
to an end. Altogether the event was a
most interesting one, bringing together
the active men of Puffer M. E. Church in
a social manner; it was also an incentive
to more and better work in the christian
work in which they are engaged.

DO YOU SUFFER
FROM BACKACHE?

When your kidneys are weak and
torpid they do not properly perform
their functions; your back aches
and you do not feel like doing much
of anything. You are likely to be
respondent and to borrow trouble,
just as if you hadn't enough al
ready. Don t be a victim any longer.
The old reliable medicine, Hood s.
Sarsaparilla, gives strength and
tone to the kidneys and builds up
the whole system.
Hoods Sarsaparilla is peculiar
combination Of roots, banks and
herbs. No other medicine acts like
it, because no other medicine has the
same formula or ingredients. Accept
no substitute, but insist on having

toilet accessories, and was amused to
note that even in this branch tie French
prediction for luxury and pleasing eff
feet was uppermost.
To the ordinary woman it would be
sufficient to know that bottle contained
choice perfume; but it seems that to the
exquisite French lady, the bottle itself is
matter of moment The container
must be worthy of its office. Some of
these glass contrivances represented
flowers, the petals converging in the cen
ter into an imaginary calyx and throwing
out stamens which were colored to stimu-
late those of the real flowers; some of
them were finished with elaborate glass
shoppers; others terminated in radia-
alton of beautiful glass like peacock's
tail and far larger than the bottles to
which they belonged. / am now ready
to believe that the Partisan lady's toilet
must be a matter of elaborate art glori.
fled by every device of which human in
genuity is capable.
Entirely contrary to Joe's ideas of con-
tinuity, we dashed out of this section by
side door and re-entered the building
by the main entrance, going past the
stately, imaginative figure of LIE Penseur,
which, more than anything else, stands
to us as a product of the French nation.
As / say, Joe did not understand why we
did this, but am willing to tell you that
it was to get the undiminishing effect
which France has intended to convey.
