Venice, May 21.--During the de-

the army contract scandals were CIV

new facts were developed. There was
a unanimous demand from the speak

the culprits. The chief criticism was
directed at the graft in clothing, shoes
and canned meat: One Of the meat
contractors who is alleged to have
supplied bad meat at a profit to him
self of over 100000, has just been i'm
prisoned. 49,.
1t was also developed that peasant
farmers who sold horses and grain to
contractors on army acquisitions have
in many cases either not been paid at
all, or paid only a small part of the
contract price.
One speaker charged that the army
contractors were endeavoring to i'm
pose silence on the press by giving
out extensive advertising.

Better Try the Home Merchant

1t is to be regretted that many people OF this COM
munity continue to deal largely with distant mail -order
houses, in preference to patronizing the home merchants,
in spite of organized efforts by our merchants to meet the
demands OF local trade and to treat this trade fairly.
Failing for the glowing descriptions of goods contained
in attractive catalogues, purchasers display a willingness
to take chances on the honesty of these big houses, which
sell mainly cheap goods at cheap prices, and to accept
goods 'unsieht-unseen" with chances for loss IN every dl-
rectiOn.
Letters that are now on exhibit on the walls Of the To-
cal postoffice, returned for lack of signature, afford elo-
ouent testimony of the prevalence OF this practice. Peo-
pie lose sight of the fact that the more a community S
trade is confined to its own merchants, the better values
are those merchants enabled to give their patrons. 1t the
local store cannot supply an order for goods from its stock,
the merchant can secure such goods for his customer, act
ing as purchasing agent, and may be relied upon to obtain
better values and to see that the customer receives his
moneys worth, since it is to the interest of the merchant
10 retain the good will of his customers. The ma1l-order
huse has no such incentive, since its profits are made from
a large volume of trading in the cheapest of cheap goods
and every effort is spent by these establishments IN en-
deavoring to drum up new business. The local merchant
is safer and is entitled to the business.

Our Agricultural Wealth

Nevada's latent agricultural resources offer a topic
that might be enlarged upon through columns of space in
the press, but they receive little attention from the people
of the state, outside of the immediate vicinity Of agricul-
tural communities, which are few and widely scattered. To
he great majority of the people OF Nevada 1t will be a dis
tinct surprise to learn that the state last year produced up
wards of 100000 bushels of spring wheat and $4,000
bushels of winter wheat, in addition to quantities of oats,
barley and hay. Estimates of the United States depart
ment of agriculture place the states production of wheat,
spring and winter, for the current year, at I,543,oOo BUSH
els.
Owing to the isolated position of the state, with re-
spect to the market for it's products, certain of the latter
realize prices considerably lower than the average prevail
ing in the country, but as practically all of these products
are used in the state this involves little actual loss, since
commodities imported from other states must bear the
high expense of transportation as we'll as exports. Hay,
for instance, is valued in Nevada, according to the Govern
ment statistics, at only $3.50 per ton this year, as against
a valuation of $40 in Utah, but by far the greater part of
the states supply of hay is fed to stock on the ranches
where it is grown and is at such great distance from the
markets that shipping would entail a p%rohibitive expense.
AS an instance of this condition there is Paradise Valley,
in Humboldt county, where a large quantity of grain is
raised and much of this product is milled into flour. The
from the nearest railroad shipping point, and therefore the
product cannot be transported to an outside market at a
profit. These facts indicate something of the difficulty Of
arriving at an accurate valuation OF the agricultural pro-
ducts of the state, since any local failure of crops would en-
tail a cost for these products far higher than the figures
given by the bureau.
