The prison farm Of the State of
Nevada will, if plans of Governor
Boyle carry, soon posses a herd of so
thoroughbred cows. The money to
be spent on the herd totals nearly
$4,000, which sum was derived from
the sale of cattle from the prison
farm, some $50 head in all. The
State plans to pay 5000 a head but
has not yet found owners who will
part with their favorites for less
than from $500 to $500.

E. r. Sans of the Bureau of Bio
logical Survey, and predatory animal
Inspector for California and Nevada,
who has been in charge of the rabies
situation here for the Government
with headquarters at Winnemucca
States that he can eradicate the rab-
les if the people will take care of their
dogs and not let them run at large.
The muzzling of all dogs is not a
preventive of the spread of disease
as the animals are allowed to run at
large and are subject to infection at
any time.
Dogs infected with the disease are
liable to bite a person when the muz-
zle is being removed in order to feed
them. The only way is to have the
dogs placed in an enclosure, keep
them there and not let them at large.
A dog may seem all right, but if af-
fected might reach out and bite its
master without warning, no matter
how gentle the animal might be.
His force of Government employed
trappers were increased from rs to
so last week as authorized from
Washington. These additional men
will work north of the Southern Paci-
fc right-of-way, in Humboldt and
Elko Counties.
The employees are expected to fur
nish their own traps and horses for
the work, but the Government will
supply gloves and poison. A mini
mum salary of SIS per month is paid
with a maximum of $50 if Is preda-
tory animals are exterminated.
Many controversial articles and
conflicting theories are being read
and discussed in regard to the origin
of the the present rabies situation,
which undoubtedly came from Cali
fornia and was taken to Oregon by
infected dogs.
1t is reported by Black & Powers
that rabies was prevalent in Califor-
mia in November. 1910. Since then
the involved territory has greatly en-
larged and not only California has
been invaded, but a number of other
States, including Nevada. 1t is be-
lieved that the present rabies origi-
mated from infected dogs coming
from infected districts in California
and it is believed that the disease
originated from dogs brought from
Texas or Mexico to California.
The first appearance of rabies in
Oregon was three years ago in Wal
Iowa County and the Government
forest service had eight men out for
the purpose of destroying the infect
ed animals, but this force was not
enough and the disease rapidly spread
to different sections.
1t is reported that thirty-four
deaths occurred in California from
rabies since the disease first made
its appearance in that State.

community says the Las Vegas Age.
Miss Frances Cover is the new
teacher selected to fill the position of
Tonopah's trainer in public school
music. Miss Cover will also assist
in regular instruction of the grade
so as to enable more teachers to take
charge of the playground work at
recesses and noon.
The electors of Battle Mountain
recently assembled and voted unani-
mously on a proposal to bond the
school district for $40, 900 in order
that a new school building may be
erected at Battle Mountain. Active
work will soon be started on the new
structure which will be modern in
every respect.
The famous big Five" ranch in
Lovelock valley. consisting of thou
sands of acres of the richest and
most productive land in the State.
most of it under a high State of cul-
tivation, is being sold in parcels.
The ranch is being disposed of at an
average price of 500 an acre and is
being picked up by prominent people
all over the United States.
The public lands committee of the
United States Senate reported favor
ably on the bill for the grant of T.
600. 900 acres of the public domain to
the State school lands of Nevada.
Twenty per cent of this grant goes
to the State University and the rest
to the public schools of the State.
The bill was introduced December Z
and at that time provided for only
two million acres, the other five mil
lion having been added while in the
hands of the committee.

P|TTMAN BILL MEANS
MUCH FOR STATE
Proposed 1000, 900 Acres Land
Would Place Money In
School Fund

A bill introduced in the Senate by
Senator Key Pittman and reported
f~avorably by the committee on pub
lie lands carries a grant to the State
of Nevada of 1000, 900 acres of land
for the benefit of the public schools
of the State and for the State Uni
versity. in proportion of so per cent
for the public schools and 20 per
cent for the State University.
The lands are to be certified to the
State by the commissioner of the
general land Office and approved by
the Secretary of the Interior. and
upon such certification the title of
such lands will become vested in the
State of Nevada.
The lands so granted will be dis
posed of under such rules and regu-
lations as may now be in effect or
may hereafter be presented by the
Legislature of the State of Nevada
and the money derived shall be in
vested in permanent interest bear
ing bonds as are other moneys of the
State of Nevada now invested.
In a statement relative to the Pitt
man bill and what it means to Ne
vada President Hendricks of the
University says:
If Nevada is granted 1000, DOC
acres provided for in the bill it will
still be treated as at least literally
treated of the public land States.
The reasonableness of the grant is
more apparent when it is realized
that the remaining unappropriated
lands of the State of Nevada are
practically all desert lands without
known water supply.
"The bill prescribes that the pro-
ceeds derived from the sale of such
lands by the State after the grant is
made shall be apportioned for the
use of the public schools in the State
and of the State in the following
proportions, towit, 80 per cent of
such proceeds to the public schools
and 20 per cent of such proceeds to
the State University. While the
population of the State of Nevada is
small, such population is scattered
over such an enormous area that the
expense of maintaining pu~blic.schools
is unusually large. Such public
school system is in need of support,
and such grant for such purpose is
not only reasonable but just. The
State University is most fortunately
situated for the investigation of min
ing and agricultural problems and
the dissemination of knowledge with
regard to such subjects. 1t is the
policy of the Government to encour.
age such Investigations and the dis
semination of such knowledge. and
the grant to said University is not
only reasonable and just but will be
of great value to the Government,
particularly through the accomplish.
ments of such University along the
lines of agricultural and mining re.

Bad Habits.

Those who breakfast at eight
o'clock or later, lunch at twelve and
have dinner at six are almost certain
to be troubled with Indigestion. They
do not allow time for one meal to
digest before taking another. Not
less than five hours should elapse
between meals. If you are troubled
with indigestion correct your habits
and take Chamberlain's Tablets, and
you may reasonably hope for quick
recovery. These tablets strengthen
the stomach and enable it to perform
its functions naturally. Obtainable
everywhere.
