GRASS VALLEY FARMERS
ARE SOWING GRAIN

Many of the farmers in Grass valley
have commenced to put in their grain
crops while others are preparing their
land for cultivation. This is well
farmed section, situated only short
distance from town, where large
number of families are located. Wheat
is the principal grain being planted at
the present time and the ground is in
fine condition for seeding. The heavy
snowfall and the consequent large
amount of moisture that is in the
ground will be big aid to this class
of farming and abundant crops are
expected at harvest time.
Nearly all the land owners in this
section have good wells which are well
equipped with gasoline engines and
pumps -Winnemucca Star.

FIRMS
BARRED FROM Lines
FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION
MAKES A REPORT TO THE
SENATE


WASHINGTON, Feb. ga charge
that petroleum pipe line companies of
the mid-continent field, through high
tariffs and unreasonable shipping re-
quirements, have excluded indepen
dent shippers from their lines, was
made today by the Federal Trade COM
mission in its report to the senate en-
a special investigation Of the business.
If the five systems that control the
mid-continent pipe lines charged their
own refneries for carrying oil at the
rate they offer to carry it for the. in
dependents, the report declares. their
annual net earnings should show a
Ais per cent profit on their pipe line
investments. AS it is they are de-
clared to earn more than 10 per cent.
The investigation was ordered by
the last congress, which later directed
an Interstate Commerce commission
inquiry. To avoid duplication the
Trade commission confined its work
to the mid-continent field, while the
Commerce commission turned its at
tention to systems operating In the
east.

DOWN TO BED ROCK

when the foreign enemy is battering al
her gates. The hour of peril does not
necessarily come with an invasion from
outside; it is ever present
But for tomorrow we of America
have no occasion for fear, if today we
fulfill our responsibilities. Failing in
our duty now is to prepare the way
for the invader; a proper self-respect
now will prepare for defense against
the invader. Armies, fleets, forts, and
all TIE array of modern war, cannot
protect a state that does not respect
itself.
Congress makes the laws; the peo-
pie make the congressman; by its
product shall be judged the efficiency
of the machine. If a community
chooses an incompetent to represent
its interests, as allied with the inter
ests Of every other community in the
United States, it is because those who
know better are either too lazy or too
selfish to undertake the work neces-
Sary to alter conditions. A misfit rep
resentative typifes the community
from which he is sent; his constitu-
ents must share his opprobrium.

America, in all her greatness, is not
any greater, and will never be any
greater, than her judgment at the
polls.
In a republic every voice is equal.
One mans vote is just as powerful as
another mans vote, and because this
Is so Americas greatness, both now
and in the generations to come, de-
ponds exclusively on her course as evil
denced in the voting places.
Civic treason is nothing more nor
less in this country than a carelessly
cast ballot. Foreign foes cannot
menace country any more than bad
citizens. Nations may have died in
the trenches; nations may continue to
die in the trenches; but far more ma
tons have died and will continue to
die, at the heart, than in the trenches.
1t is Of just as much Importance to
| America to extend her power in time
of peace as in time Of war. It is of
just as much Importance to America
to defend herself against misjudgment
at the polls as it is to defend herself
