A GRAND
CHANCE FOR OUR
DAIRYMEN

The New Creamery Company, which
is organized under the profit sharing
plan with the producers, is one among
the first large corporations that has
opened the books of its operations
and declared its profits to those who
furnished capital.
The new company has taken over all
the interests of the Old Jensen Cream
cry Company, which now have large
manufacturing and distributing plants
in all the large western and north
western cities where millions OF
pounds of dairy and poultry products
are consumed.
Dairymen who become members OF
this company under the mutual plan
will participate in the earnings OF
the company, both in common stock
and papptpropnage and dividends, and
this company will eventually become
one of the largest cooperative dairy
and poultry plants in the world
The products will be handled by
this company under the mutual plan
for the farmers who will in time own
sixty per cent of the capital stock,
which will only pay three per cent
on sales for the use of capital, and all
the profits will be returned to the pro-
ducers who are members, as patron
age dividends.
To become a producer stakeholder
the producers must have stock to the
extent of FIVE dollars per COW, or more,
which can be purchased upon reason
able terms. This company contem
plates opening cash buying stations
at all trading points and will weigh,
test and pay cash for dairy and poul-
try products the day it is delivered
to all producers no matter whether
they are members or not.
Their representatives were here go
ing over the territory and have ar
ranged with N. F. Bertrand to OPP
crate buying station at Yerington
Nevada, on Monday and Tuesday OF
each week, they have also made SIM
liar arrangements at Mason, Wabuska
and Nordyke in this valley. This
company now have number of cream
shippers in this sectin.
Their representatives state that the
matter of taking stock in the new mu
tual company is optional with the
producers, but it means great deal
to the producer to become a member
and the new plans should be studied
by them.
These new stations will be opened
up at the above mentioned points
shortly after May 20.

A PLEASANT EVENING

In spite of the soaking rain last
Tuesday evening, the Harmony Glee
Club gathered at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Phipps for pleasant social time.
And they were not disappointed. The
consciousness of having braved the
storm, and the warm hospitality OF
the host and hostess combined to
make it an evening to be remembered.
Everyone sang with unusual enthu-
siasm in face of the fact that the
books were not numerous. After the
music games were INDUCED in, caus-
ing much fun. The flower game was
especially entertaining, and Miss Rel
chelt as Bluebell carried off her part
to the complete enjoyment of all. The
representations of buttercup, clover
and violet were very good NJ and
Mrs. Ricksecker were awarded the
honor of having worked out com
lete list Blind Pig" was the next
game and revealed hitherto unknwn
artistic ability on the part of those
entering the game. Mrs. Arends and
Mr.. Johns were awarded prize joint
ly for the best work Several other
stunts kept everyone busy for
awhile longer and then partners for
supper were found in very niquc
fashion, causing much exertion on the
part of the gentlemen and merriment
from all Everyone appreciated the
delicious refreshments that were
served. Master Harold Phipps sur
prised the guests by singing in most
commendable manner a song entitled
"Sunbeams," and Miss Helen played
an instrumental selection very ac-
ceptably. The solos by Mr.. Kline
were highly appreciated as they al
ways are.
The club voted Mr.. and Mrs. Phipps
royal entertainers and left with happy
hearts. Those present were: Mes
danes Ricksecker, Leavitt, Burner,
Rawson, Arends, Tanner, Crownin-
shield and Kline; the Misses Sperry
Reichelt and Howe; and Messrs. Leav-
lit, Ricksecker, Kline, J. Johns, Tan
ner, Rawson, Perazzo and Van Ben
schoten.

HITS THE NAIL ON THE HEAD

We wish to commend the quiet and
dignihed manner in which Mrs. Knox
and her corps of teachers have brought
to close the years work of the pub
lie school. We have always felt it to
be an extravagant use of time, funds,
and energy to be continually practic-
ing the school children for public ex
hibitions, which take weeks of pre-
paration and weeks of recuperation
and rarely. if ever, exhibit any of the
real work of the school. We should
be more than glad to have programs
and "publics" where the children
show work that can b. done in quick
independent thinking in clear and &C
curate expression or in the powers
of concentration, but we fail to see
much benefit to the boys and girls
from many performances on the pub
lie stage, however entertaining to all
We rejoice in the judgment shown
in having girl graduates wear inexpen-
sive cotton gowns An deliberately
trimmed satin gown is as inappropriate
to an eighth grade graduation as IS
an elaborate commencement program
We have had both in Yerington-sat-
ms and laces, glories and honors-
but we like the modest, quiet way
best. We have had very few tickets
to buy in numerous school entertain
ments this year, and we are glad the
little children have not been contin-
ually in the public eye. May they al
ways be in the public heart.

RENO WANTS
OUR NORMAL
SCHOOL MONEY

The Normal school question seems
to be agitating Reno's clubwomen, If
the items in the Nevada State Jour
nal and the Reno Evening Gazette are
any guide. 1t is quite laudatle that
the women of Reno desire to retain
the State Normal School in connec-
ton with the University of Nevada,
but why they object to the establish
ment of Normal Schools in the vari-
GUS counties quite puzzling. IT
brings up the query as to why Reno
is so interested in the betterment of
teaching facilities and training of
teachers in Reno, but objects to such
progress in any other locality.
Judging from the tone of the arti-
Gle in question it would seem that
Reno objects to any plan that might
allow expenditure of any portion of
the State moneys in any other sec
ton of the State outside of its be-
loved city.
This is quite commendable from
their point of view, but it is very evil
dent that a considerable hardship
would be suffered in educational mat
tiers by the people of the State at
large should the present plan OF
branch or County State Normals,
which has proven so acceptable and
successful in many other States, be
discontinued in Nevada.
We believe there is about $loOO
allowed the Lyon County High School
Normal department. This money is
spent in Lyon county. The Reno
contingent want this spent in Reno.
Do our people want them to hog ev-
erything. We say NO. Yerington is
on the map as an educational center
to stay as such, and in time become
the educational center of the State,
and we want all that's coming to us,
and then some.

New York. Oct. 1.-THE reslgna-
tion OF Theophile Delcasse as minis
ter OF foreign Affairs OF France was
almost certainly due TO the refusal
OF tho British and French govern
menis TO follow his advice about the
best way OF dealing with the Balkans.
England's foreign secretary, Sir
Edward Grey. was given control OF
negotiations with the Balkans. Grey'a
failure In the negotiations was APP
parently Delcasse's reason for no
longer supporting the Britisher's
methods.
Delcasse always was strong adyo-
cate OF prepared diplomacy. In tho
present instance preparedness meant
the Dispatch OF large army for quick
action, through Greece. to check the
Teutons az the Serbian border and 10
overcome the Buigarians. This army
ought to have been sent early In the
course OF the diplomatic battle at
Sofa. when the allies and Germany
we're dickering for Bulgaria's aid.
After Bulgarian mobilization began
England held hack. and France had 10
urge her before even the present in
adequate expedition was sent to
saioniki.N
When two men possessing such
strong personalities as Delcasse and
Grey do not agree, one OF them must
eventually retire.
II Is probable that Grey counted
too much on past British prestige In
the Balkans 10 swing Bulgaria TO the
allies. E&
Delcasse, on the other hand, no
ticed the decline OF British influence
there, and urged preparation against
an nnfavorable decision on Bulgaria's
part. Grey prevailed. however, and
failed in his mission.
| Delcasse's resignation is In effect
a demand for an international com
mission which will permit no on'
capital In the future to control tn,
