MANY GO UP CANYON
AFTER CHRISTMAS TREEc

Last Saturday was a big day for
about forty boys and men, who went
up Home canyon for Christmas trees
To tell the truth. few of the bows
who tackled the trip were a little
small to wade the snow, but thew
found larger friends to break trail
for them and the day will, doubtless.
De remembered for a long time by
some OF the boys, as a day OF big adj
ventures.
The weather was ideal for the
trip. The extreme cold of the early
part OF the week moderated until
the air was just right for hard work
out OF doors. 1t must be admitted,
however, that the snow was cold as
ever, and called for heavy overshoes.
as we'll as plenty of woolen stockings,
to keep the boys feet warm.
Ranger Gordon is going up Home
canyon again Saturday, December 23.
and everyone who wants a tree
should arrange to go up ON this day.
An early start is advisable for the
trees are about six miles from town
and the snow il two feet deep in the
hills. However, the road Is pretty
well broken nearly all the way. It
would be mistake TO allow bows to
attempt the trip on foot.
The policy OF restricting Christmas
tree cutting TO dense patches of trees

as, President of the Nevada Fed
Grafton is anxious that every club
in the State discuss the question
of Preparedness" Discuss with
the idea not of rushing madly in
to warfare but as means OF main
tanning permanent peace. The
basis OF this appeal is the supreme
duty of e,. ry citizen, man and
woman. to the country in time of
peril. The duty Of every mother
to bring up her children with a
sense OF duty to the community.
and of service to the common need
and the acceptance by all of such
sacrifices as a common safety
would demand.
The President is anxious that
the Endowment pledge to the
General Federation be paid in full
before the biennial. The amount
pledged was $4,000. OF this.
amount So is yet to be raised.
This fund has been raised by
pledges from the State FEEDER
atoms, and it is hoped by the
chairman, Mary Toole James, that
the full amount of $4,000 will be
in her hands at the close of the
biennial. In letter to Mrs
Squires, Mrs. James has this to
say: Naturally | cannot help re
joicing that your gift, which is so
generous, is to be made before
the biennial. Unless some other
State is astonishingly liberal It
will put you at the head of the list
as having given more in proper
ton to the amount for which you
were asked. than any other. i
hope you will be well represented
at New York to hear this report.

He has several acres OF dry san
dy ground to feed on and he has
cotes sufficient to accommodate
1000 sheep with their lambs, and
during inclement weather he
drives the sheep with the little ons
into the fold. He also has sepa-
rate stalls and when he finds a
sheep that won't own her lamb,
and there are a good many, he
puts her into the stall and ties her
hind legs SO the lamb can get
nourishment and after few days
of this treatment the old sheep
will own the lamb.
He has a novel way of knowing
the mother of each and every
lamb. He has ten branding irons,

in effect is an appeal to the people
Of the United States to disregard sec

tional safety and the security of na
tional honor.
Peace he wants, as "A matter Of
right, but as against the spirit that is
TOO proud TO fight he warns that
the peace of cowardice leads in the
end TO war after q record of shame
This statement he also makes the
vehicle for his first declaration in this
campaign on the tariff. On that he
stands squarely for protection. but he
warns those timid souls who would
make the tariff the main issue that
such an appeal would be an appeal
to tho belly and not to the soul of
the American people"

but only OH condition that we treat
the body as the servant of the soul"

The large end of receipts was kill

be slow, although prices paid were
steady.
The light quota Of stock cattle aid

strong or about a dime higher for
the two days. while the others were
merely strong.
Hog trade was slow i'm starting. but
finally got under way on a basis that
was a big nickel lower than the day
before. Best hogs sold at $3.50,
