THE COUNTY FAIR

An agricultural fair is a great
object lesson. 1t is intensively
educative in it's character. 1t
teaches by contrast and example
when seeing is believing. 1t
creates healthy rivalry and
friendly competition. 1t gathers
knowledge and diffuses it; it ad-
vertises and attracts; it promotes
social life and good feeling; it in
culcates feelings of pride and
patriotism.
1t is timekeeper of progress;
it records community'S ad-
vancement; it goes into the home;
it broadens and briShtens the
the daily life of the people; it
opens mighty storehouses of in
formation.
The fair is a business propo-
sition. 1t is an opportunity to
advertise your goods and your
farm products. You place them
before the people, thus giving
you an opportunity to better your
condition by securing some of
your best seed corn, cotton seed ,
brood sows, fine cattle, horses,
mules, sheep, etc.
The fair spirit is taking hold
on our people, interest is devlop-
ing; communities heretofore
lukewarm are catching the spirit
and contagion has set in.
Where fairs have been held
longest, you will find better live
stock; better farmers and better
farms. Hence You will see that
we have everything TO gain and
nothing TO lose by encouraging,
establishing and maintaining a
good County Fair.
Patrons of our Fair can offord
to be especially liberal, remem.
bering that every cent of profit
goes into Improvements that will
make each fair better than the
preceding one.

THE LOCAL PAPER

h The weekly newspaper promotes
the town in which it is published to
such an extent that it becomes impos-
sible to place an estimate upon its
worth. There is no enterprise that
does so much for the corporation or
the individual as the paper. 1t stands
opposd to the town knocker the town
kicker, the town fanatic and the town
drones. 1t stands for progress as
against stagnation. 1t stands for ac-
ton as against dry rot. 1t is ever
read to aid the constructive plans of
the wise and level-headed citizens. 1t
is for tn upbuilding OF the commun-
ity. The paper has not yet come into
its own, however, because it is never
appreciated to the extent of its worth
by the people at large. Yet when bat
ties are to be fought for town or
county a rush is made to the news
paper office to find the loyal editor
ready, frequently without hope of re-
ward. Many other enterprises are en-
couraged by a bonus, but rarely IS
the newspaper offered any such help
and still more often not given the sup
port it is entitld to. Communities
frequently lose sight of their real
benefactor when they fail to recog
nize the weekly journal as such. The
editor and his paper stands as the bull
wark of defense against the attacks
of evil or designing schemes affecting
the good of the individual or the town
papers of the town and county should
receive the support of the public at
large in very liberal way.-Ex.

DAIRYMAN MAKES VISIT

V. E. Scott, Extension Agent in
Dairying for the University of Ne
vada is spending the week working
among the farmers and dairymen.
The purpose of the visit is to induce
farmers to keep herd records and test
out their cows to see which ones are
paying profit and which ones are kept
at loss. Mr.. Scott had intended to
meet with the farmers at their insti-
tute on Friday, but received message
from the College of Agriculture that
the meeting was indefinitely postpon-
ed. After consulting with several
prominent citizens it seems best to
have the meeting of the farmers come
at later date, giving plenty of time
to advertise the matter.

BASEBALL FEVER
BREAKS LOOSE
IN YERINGTON

All citizens of the town who are the
least bit patriotic will be sorry to learn
our boys went down to defeat in the
| first pitched battle since war was de-
| clared. The scene of the conflict was
the diamond of the Beavers, so we
have some consolation in knowing
that the defenders of the towns stand
ing were not beaten on their own terri
tory Before peace is declared be-
tween the rival teams our boys shall
have had more training in the art of
war; and as they become more skilled
in the use of their weapons and bet
ter acquainted with the battlefield, we
may expect to hear of different out
come.
Our old trusty, Dan, was in the box
when the initial game was played.
William Mackey did the heaving for
the enemy, using the two curves which
he has made famous. He employs only
an outcurve, with a drop thrown in
now and then to keep the batters
guessing. he controls the curves and
the straight balls so well that his lack
of variety is not apparent. He has been
hattered so much about his ability as
pitcher that he has become con-
vinced that he has the makings of a
big Lacquer and he is now being in
structed by one of the "has beens.'
A week from next Sunday the sec
ond game will be played on the same
field. Go with the boys and show
them that the town appreciates good
team. There will be few changes
in the town team, which will greatly
strengthen it, and insure victory. Ask
Dan about the game-he'll be glad to
inform you. And be sure to go along
and help us push the Beavers into
water that is too deep for them.

NOTES FROM THE
ARTESIAN BELT OF
SMITH VALLEY

The new road through Artesia is
progressing very nicely. There is some
two miles completed and it is done in
hrst-class shape considering the small
expense the county has been put to,
and it is to be hoped that it will go
right along to the Ludwig road.
The people of the valley are very
proud of the new road and it does
credit to the new Commissioner, Mr..
Wedertz.
Autoists going through the valley
are more than glad to know that there
is room enough to pass on it without
pulling out in sagebrush and rocks
Heretofore they have only had COW
trail. Some of the ranchers have al
ready posted notices on the old side
roads that cross their ranches, as
there is now proper county road for
the travel.
The Keystone drilling machine has
been brought down from Ludwig and
is drilling we'll on Bob Sloan's
ranch Mr.. Nat Hurd and Mr.. Bob
Alysworth are running it.
Mr. and Mrs. Hurd and son drove
over to Artesia on Sunday from Simp-
son.
F. w. Simpson and E. Wedertz
were over the first part of the week
inspecting the new road.
Dputy Sheriff Ambrose was a busi-
ness visitor in Artesia the fore part

METHOD OF
TREATING SWINE
WORM AFFLICTED

The following article is by l.. E
Cline, Agricultural Demonstrators, at
| Fallon, Nevada, and it will be worth
while for Mason Valley swine raisers
to heed his advice:
| One of the common causes that con-
tribute to unthrifty conditions in hogs
is the presence of intestinal worms,
and among the most common is the
testines. These worms somtmes are
found in other parts of the alimentry
tract but their presence outside of the
small intestines is accidental. In
thrifty animals are more subject to
invasion of worms than the more
thrifty ones because of their inability
to combat this foe. Very often round
worms collect in the small intestines
to such an extent that the passage of
food is interfered with This, in addi-
ton to the irritation caused by the
presence of worms, is a serious draw
back to the proper development of
young hogs.
The common round worm of swine
in adult stage is from seven to ten
inches long, and white in color. The
adult female lays eggs in. large num-
bers, almost microscopical in size,
and which passes with the alimentary
material. These eggs are later taken
into other hogs through the mouth
under filthy conditions. The eggs
soon hatch and the worm establishes
itself in the small intestines. If the
hogs are kept in thrifty condition
and the feeding troughs and pens are
kept reasonably clean, there is little
likelihood that the animals will be
come seriously infected.
To rid hogs of worms the following
methods are advisable: Always treat
hogs after they have tasted ten to
twelve hours. Turpentine, one tea
spoonful, given in little milk, to each
100 pounds live weight. repeated on
three successive days, is very effective
Another effective remedy is as follows:
Five grains of calomel and eight
grains of santonin for each 100 pounds
live weight. The mixture is fed with
small quantity of thick slop. These
drugs are very powerful. and it is very
important that the ingredients be mix
ed thoroughly with the slop before
feeding. A small number of pigs are
dosed at time. So tnat each animal
will be sure to get its share OF the
drugs The animal should not be fed
for two or three hours after the rem
edy is given.
The value of many of the patent
worm remedies on the market is
doubtful some of them contain prac-
tically no commissioning ingredi-
ents. AT any. rate, the drug that is
needed costs ony fraction as much
when brought pure as when bought in
the form of patent concoction,
where a number of other things are
mixed in to disguise the active rem
edy that is desired.

PLEASANT SURPRISE PARTY
