Winnemucca Is Years Ago Today
From The Daily Silver State

A Better Paper--we have for som time been impressed with
the fact that the editor who expects to be thanked for courteous IN
> complimentary notices of the average man, is very apt to get badly
left In the public mind, it seems to be the duty of an editor to say
only pleasant things of everyone and everything; to refrain from
, criiczng anybody or anything; to shoulder everybodys burdens
and bear them patiently: TO defend his town and advocate its in
terests. to protect it from assaults both within and without; to be,
in short, a helpful mouthpfece for all who are assailed or in peril
{. of attack and to do it without any expectation OF hope of thanks
or expressed appreciation. and Ito do il with the understanding that
/. if. by some means, he may, in al unguarded moment, be led to say
. a word or two, uncomplimentary of the very persons o things he
has a hundred times before praised, the party offended has a perfect
right to ignore past favors and curse him and his paper roundly
- and feryenuy.
. Now, our desire is to make this paper better, and to do that we
. respectfully invite news items from h various portions " n
9 county, from those who are interested in the good of the county.
!. Don't wait until the news is stale before sending, but forward 1t
/. Immediately while it has some snap. Remember that editors are
human and that they can't sit in their offices and make up items
I. of interest; such must be sent in by outsiders. It's easy. When
. something happens, just write the answers to the questions, Who?
. What? When? Where? and How? Thank you.

How many realize the distance

One is accustomed to think of the
Mediterranean as a lake, but do you
realize that it is farther from the

be exact, the Dardanelles are two
hundred and ninety miles farther
from any base in the North sea than

GUARD FOWLS AGAINST ROUP
Birds Suffering From Colds and Eek.
posure Are Quite Susceptible
Make Use of ~Preventives. z

Roup is a germ disease thought by
some to be caused by the Bacillus Avi-
septicus; very infectious and usually
transmitted by exposure to infected
birds or to coops, roosts and yards
where roupy birds have been.
Birds suffering from colds and ex-
posture are more susceptible and to
guard against roup, you should use
tonics and p%reventives, which not only
tend to prevent this dread disease but
help to keep the birds in the pink of
condition and working overtime on the
egg basket.

little outward slant in the seams at
the sides. 1t is set on to the waist under
a very narrow belt of silk braid Of
the same color as the velveteen. The
neck, sleeves and bottom of the skirt
are bound with this silk braid and the
frock fastens tc one side of the front
with snap fasteners. The opening is
also finished with the braid.
This dress is worn over a guimpe of
white organdie, and rather full or
candle u~ndersleeves are gathered in
to the small cuff bands at the wrist.
These and the guimpe are sewed to an
underbodice of lawn, which is easy to
launder, and they serve to keep the
frock fresh looking as long as it lasts.
Either velveteen or serge will wear I'M
til they are outgrown, and taffeta is
durable enough to be worth while. The
colors best liked for these little frocks
are brown, blue, raisin color, and
brown or blue combined with beige.

GRAIN FEED.

The grain feed is fed night and
morning, a lighter allowance being fed
in the morning than in the evening.
The plan followed at the Pennsylvania
station is to feed approximately twice
as much whole grain as mash grain.
The mash is fed in hoppers, which for
light breeds may be left open all day
: but for heavier breeds should be &C
~eessible only part Of the day. Some
grit in the form of oyster shell or
ground limestone and some green feed
such as cabbage, mangel-wurzels,
%sprouted oats, potato parings or ground
green bone should be provided, in ad-
dition to the ration given above,

Strong Opposition to Site.

Members of the East Washington
Citizens Association, while not sur
prised at the purchase of the site, are
disappointed at being unable to have
the new building erected on reservation
No. II, the site of the Jail and other
District institutions. For u number Of
49,, it is stated, that organization
ha. iabored increasingly in an effort TO
interest the Commissioners and mem
bers of Congress in the reservation
site.
1t is probable that the question will
be further discussed at the March
meeting of the association and, it is
stated, the association may decide to
carry it's fight against the erection of
the building on the site selected to the
committees of Congress.
1t is said that the site selected by
the Commissioners will meet with the
approval Of the Lincoln Park Citizens
Association. That associa ton, it is
stated, preferred the site south of East
Capitol street, but the committee on
education of the association, Ray l..
Smith. chairman, expressed Il willing
ness to accept practically any site the
Commissioners might select in the vi
ctnity of Lincoln Park.
