WHAT BILL DID

Bill Turner was 4 farmer, he la
bored all his life He didn't have any
schooling and neither had kis wife.
But Bill was built for business and
made the wheels go round, and left a
healthy fortune when they put him un-
der ground He was always taking
chances, paid hundred for bull.
His neighbors called him crazy, but
he left stable full of cows that broke
the record, making butter by the ton,
an Bill had his picture printed in the
Squeedunk Weekly Sun. He had new
tangled notions of making farming
pay. He even bought fool machine
to help him load the his hay. The
neighbors fairly snorted when they
saw the bloomin' thing, Bill didn't say
a single word, an didn't care darn
bout what they said, fer slick as
grease, his hay went in the barn an
hour before thunder storm came
sailin' out that way and caught his
neighbors in pinch and spoiled their
new mown hay. Bills neighbors put
their milk in cans, and set 'em in 4
tank. Bill skinned his milk with a
machine and turned it with crank.
Smith chops his firewood with an AK.
Bill used some gasoline and saws 4
hundred cords day with another
blamed machine. Today Bills wife
rides in car and dresses up in silk.
Smiths wife rides in wagon and
keeps on skimming milk.-Taylor

SHEEP MARKET
is THE BEST
IN MANY YEARS

Wool and lamb markets are at
their best in many years" said A. J.
Knolin. Vice President of the Nation
al Woolgrowers' Association, at re-
cent conference, "and every indication
is that they will remain that way this
year. For this reason the woolgrow
err has every reason to look forward
TO a prosperous year and ladvise
woolgrowers who have not disposed
OF their clip to hold it for higher
prices.
"Indications in sheep and wool are
good all over the country" continued
Mr.. Knolin, "and the Woolgrowers'
Association is gratihed that it has
been in position this year to be OF
to market his product and in making
assistance to the grower by aiding him
it possible for the grower to get the
highest price possible for his clip.
We hope next year to do even more
for the grower and to increase the
scope of our operations"

Word was received at Carson City
this week of the death of Miss Gladys
Fuchs at Berkeley, California, where
she has been attending summer
school. Miss Fuchs was one OF Car
son City's popular young ladies, where
she has been teaching school.
Mrs. G. NJ Johnson who shot and

Athletic authorities of the Univer-
sity of Nevada are seriously consid-
ering the adoption of the old Ameri-
can game of football to take the place
of Rugby, which is in vogue at pres
ent. Nevada has had little success
with the English game, and will prob
ably follow the lead of California in
returning to the old style of play.
Nineteen bars of bullion came down
from Wonder last Friday. These
shipments arrive about three times a
month, but there is no attempt made
on the part of the management of the
Nevada Wonder to exploit their prop
erty, which is one of the best in the
whole State of Nevada. We did not
learn of the value of the Shipment
Churchill Standard.
According to the Elko papers, mad
coyotes continue to furnish plenty of
excitement. A ranch hand near Hal
leck, while driving a horse rake in a
field, happened to look around and
saw a coyote with foaming jaws try
ing to jump over the rake at him.
Two other men working in the field,
rushed to his rescue with clubs, but
the coyote beat it before they could
get to him. The animal escaped, al
though pursued for quite distance.
The stage driver of the Elko-Tuscar-
ra stage had similar experience while
on the road near Eagle Rock The
lead horses began to rear back on
their launches and threatened to over
turn the stage. Investigating, the
driver found coyote running around
in circles ahead in the middle of the
road He dispatched the beast with
one shot from his revolver.

NEVADA'S WHEAT CROP
WILL BREAK ALL
RECORDS THIS YEAR

There will be more wheat grown
and marketed in Nevada in 1915 than
in any other 10 years combined since
Nevada has been State" said J. M.
Fulton, District Freight ard Passen-
ger Agent of the Southern Pacific,
who has just concluded a report of the
agricultural conditions of the State for
the traffic officials of the company.
Mr.. Fulton has just returned from a
business trip to San Francisco, where
his report was made.
This wheat is being grown from
the Utah line as far west as Reno" he
continued, land it is better than the
average wheat and equal to that
grown in Idaho or Minnesota.
with live stock at the present
prices, with 10 per cent mortality on
the ranges during the winter, the rail
road officials saw the need of the
herds having an opportunity to feed.
We are now arranging to pumlish low
round-trip rates for cattle from the
points in eastern Nevada to cheap hay
at Lovelock, Fallon, Wadsworth,
Fernley and other western Nevada
points.
The herds are to move in the fall
and to be returned to the ranges in the
spring. We believe this will be profit
able to the stockman, to the hay pro-
ducers and TO the State in general.
The definite rates have not yet been
arrived at, but it is the intention to
make them so that, while there will
be no loss to the railroads, there will
be but little profit in the movement of
this class of business, but the rail
roads will share in the general pros
perity that it will bring about.
There are 100000 tons of alfalfa
in Nevada seeking market and this
hay must be sold. Notwithstanding
the rate of $40 ton to all points on
the Missouri river and Sll.50 a ton to
Mississippi river points, and through
rate of $3.50 a ton to San Francisco
the lowest rate the Southern Pa
cihc has on any clsas OF freight--it has
been found impossible to market the
States hay We figure to help the
farmers to market their product by
these rates and to bring the stock
where the hay is grown. '-Eovelock

NEVADA POTATO EXHIBIT


The P. P. |. f. is arranging for a
Potato Show of Nevada potatoes and
we are hoping to be able to comply
with their requests and -sho wthe en-
tire world the high-class potatoes that
are being raised in Nevada. Briefly,
our plan is to present to the public a
special display of market" potatoes
in our Agricultural Exhibit beginning
October II, 1915.
What we want from you, the grow
err, and from each one of your neigh
bors who grow potatoes, is:
Two apple boxes of your best pota-
toes; packed carefully; selected very
carefully for the following points:
a-Smooth skin.
b-Even color.
Given size-no freak shapes.
medium weight - preferably
about one-third to one-half pounds,
each.
To meet all these conditions, it will
mean some of your time in special Sc
lection at the time these potatoes are
dug to avoid bruising and to insure
their keeping.
We feel that such commercial pub
licity will prove to the entire world
where the best potatoes are grown
and your personal interest will mean
much toward the success of the ex-
hibit
We are offering silver cup for the
best exhibit of any single grower of
Nevada to be awarded by selected
jury of three men well versed in po-
tato culture
You may rest assured that we want
to aid our farmers and growers to-
ward securing a better market for
their prducts.

Yours truly,

The price of alfalfa hay in the Love-
lock market is sos to $50 in carload
lots. This is rise in price of fifty
cents over last week. The new al

market.
G. S. Garcia began experimenting
Monday with sagebrush bark in tan
ming hides. The experiment is being
made in Elko and if success Nevada
will be shipping out leather instead of
the hides in their raw state.
Joseph Murphy, employed in Stahl
Bros.'s mill at Masonic, was instant
ly killed at that place last week. Muir
ply was caught in the betting and
thrown into some machinery and be-
fore the mill could be shut down both
legs and arms were severed from the
body. Murphy had lived in Nevada
for long time and was As years of
age. Burial was made in Winnie

Sheriff Lamb and Constable Moore,
of Lovelock, have been making a
roundup of dogs running at large with
out being properly muzzled. About
twenty dogs were killed, most of the
animals being strays. The Indians,
too, have killed a number of their
dogs, as they are fearing the spread of
the rabies, since a coyote entered their
village few mornings ago and bit a
dog.-Humboldt Star.
George Wingheld within the past
few weeks has received two letters
the first of which demand $4,000 and
the second $4,000. The letters state
that unless the money is paid his life
will be in danger, and one signed the
Organization. No time or place was
stated for paying the money. Wing
field has offered reward of ST 900 for
information leading to the arrest Of

letter.
The trouble between the Southern
Pacific Co and J. W. Pruett, of Carlin,
Nevada, over strip of land in the
west end of Carlin, on which the S. P.
Co. has about 900 feet of track, has
been stettled cut of court Pruett, by
his settlement, gets 400 acres of land
under fence and partly improved for
his strip of seven acres. Some time
ago. in an effort to secure rent for the
use of his property, Pruett chained
several cars to the track pending a
settlement.
An Lighthouse team, with load of
eight tons of -four, ran away down the
grade near Lamoille Summit in Elko
county, Saturday, and only through
skilful driving, was serious accident
averted. The brakes failed to hold on
the lead wagon, and the wheel horses
could not hold the weight. A wild race
then ensued to the bottom of the can
yon, but the driver stayed by his
horses, although one of the animals
got his leg over the pole and hoped
along on three legs. When near the
bottom of the grade, one of the wag
ons overturned, the driver jumped for
safety and none of the horses were in
jured. Only three sacks out of 200
were broken. 1t was nervy drive
for the teamster.
