To Improve Farm
Holdings

l.. Ruhenstroth, who last spring
purchased the Rodenbah ranch, is
planning many improvements to the
property. Among these are the
installation of an electric dynamo at
the power house and the building of
a new ditch to be taken out of the
river above the dam now being con-
structed by the Douglas Milling and
Power company. This ditch will be
80 feet higher than the present one,
thus reducing the lift from rs to 40
feet. The dynamo will be used for
generating electric current and the
present power house for transmission
to the pump which will be placed at
a point several hundred feet above
the present one. thus allowing the
water TO be lifted on his agricultural
land above the house and allowing
considerable new land to be brought
under cultivation
Some years ago when Mr. Ruben
stroth purchased his present home
ranch, then known as the Squires
place, IL was one of the most run
down ranches in Carson Valley. By
hsrd work, and keen understanding
of farming, Mr.. Ruhenstroth has i'm
proved the place, until 1t is now one
of the most desirable pieces of farm
property in Carson Valley.
Ii is the work of such men as Mr.
Ruhenstroth that has put Carson
Valley in the ranks of the leading
agricultural communities in the
State.

Rare Pathe Records

The Brunswick Photograph with Pathe
records is an unmatchable combination,
at fair price. They introduce new musi
cal values, delicate standings and over
tones. They bring to more American
homes the favorite records of America
plus those from Paris, London, Berlin
Milan, Vienna, and other old world cen
tiers. The Pathe library is the largest
musical collection in the world They in
troduce many of Europe's celebrated
artists, hitherto barred from many Ameri-
can homes. And all the great bands, Or
chestras and musical organizations. But
remember, the interchangeable sound
boxes permit you to change from one
make of record to another, instantly.
