GERMANY WILL ALLOW
DYESTUFFS EXPORTED

The German government has
agreed to permit expectation to the
United States of $4,000 toni of dye
stuffs, lack of which has seriously at
fected American textile manufactur.
ers. Notification to this effect was
contained in a note delivered Thurs
day by Count Won Bernstorff, the
German ambassador, to Secretary
Lansing.
The communication explains that
while Germany refused at first to per-
nit expectation of dyestuffs unless
they be exchanged for American
goods, now excluded from Germany
by the British blockade. after careful
consideration of the situation it has
been seen that this blockade has re-
suited in serious embarrassment to
those American industries which are
in need of dyestuffs." and the imper-
ial German government now Is pre-
pared to make "a single exception" In
permitting expectation in this in

VIRTUE OF A GOOD LAUGH.
A Tonic That Stimulates the Body
and All Its Organs.

There Is not the remOtest corner OF
little inlet of the minute blood vessels
of the human body that does not feel
some wavelet from the CONFUSION oc-
casioned by good hearty laughter.
The life principle. Or the central
man. is shaken to the innermost
depths. sending new tides of life and
strength to the surface. thus mate
rally tending to insure good health to
the persons who indulge therein.
The blood moves more rapidly and
conveys a different impression to all
the organs of the body as it visits
them on that particular mystic jour-
ney when the man is laughing from
what it does at other times.
For this reason every good, hearty
laugh in which a person INDUCES
lengthens his life. conveying, as it
does. new and distinct stimulus to the
vital forces.
Doubtless the time will come when
physicians. conceding more importance
than they now do to the influence of
the mind upon the vital forces Of the
body. will make up their prescriptions
more with reference to the mind and
less to drugs for them and will. In SO
doing. find the best and most effective
method Of producing the required eff
feet upon the patient.

How to Quit SMOKING.

Do not light the first cigar less than
half an hour after breakfast. The more
difficult this delay may be the more
need there is for a cure. The remain
der OF the day smoke the same as
usual. 1t is only the first cigar with
which we are dealing. Keep this up
for a week. then lengthen the interval
to an hour for another week, then
make 1t one and a half hours, two.
two and a half. and SO on. If you
have an 'all gone sensation, a long
ing for something. eat an orange or
apple or almost any kind of fruit, but
don't smoke until the time is up. The
nerves, being deprived Of their morning
stimulant, are crying for nourishment,
which nature Is Fastening to supply
through increased appetite to supply
digestion. By the time the first cigar
Is entirely eliminated the cure Is eff
fected with no serious arrangement Of

MANY CHANCES TO FILE
ON HOMESTEAD CLAIMS

During the 1916 field season, just
opening, entry, or Final Proof, sur
veys will be made Of 1O4 Homestead
claims within the National Forests
of the Intermountain District. by
Forest service surveyors. F~orty-eight
of these claims are in Idaho; 23 In
Nevada; 81 in Utah and 2 in Wyo-
ming.
The surveyors will be handled by
two crews, in charge of Mr.. R. D.
Carver and Mr.. F. C. Haman. Work
will start Immediately, Mr.. Haman's
crew beginning in Nevada, on the
Nevada NATIONAL Forest, and Mr..
Garver's beginning in Idaho on the
Minidoka National Forest. All of
this survey work is under the gen.
eral supervision of Mr.. w. B. Rice,
of the Ogden office of the Forest SER
vice.
The 104 surveys include all Home
stead claims within the Forests of
this District, requiring survey TO en-
able the entrymen to offer Final
Proof prior to January 1, 1918, there
being many others on surveyed lands
not requiring special survey. Surveys
are made from a year to a year and
a half in advance, with a view to hav-
ing all office work by the Forest SER
vice and the general land office CON-
pleted by the time the claimants are
ready to offer Final Proof and ap-
ply for latent to their LANDS.
Under the old procedure, when a
Homestead Entryman, within a Ma
tional Forest, wished to secure title
to u~nsurveyed lands, or to irregular
tracts of surveyed agricultural land,
where metes and bounds survey vas
necessary he was obliged to have
his claim surveyed, at his own ex-
pense, by a surveyor approved by the
Surveyor General. Such a survey
costs the claimant anywhere from
$50 to $500. according to the dis
lance which the surveyor was forced
to travel, time consumed, etc.
The act of August 10, 1912, autho-
riZed the Forest service to make
these surveys free of charge for all
Homestead claimants within the Ma
tional Forests. Since the passage
of that act, approximately 800 such
surveys have been made by the Ser
vice within District -Four, alone, and
this seasons work will bring the
number up to owe 400.

NEVADA CON ORE RESERVES
GREATLY INCREASED

That interest in the reported in
crease in the Nevada Con ore re-
serves is one of a widespread nature,
is shown from the following, repub-
lished from a recent issue of the
Ishpeming (Mich.) Iron Ore. All of
which reflects to the permanency OF
the prosperity of Ely:
at has become an open secret that
the annual report of the Nevada Con-
%solidated. about to be issued, will dis
close a very considerable increase of
ore reserves. There could be no more
important development as respects
this company. Its productive capac-
ity and earning power under all con-
ditions have been thoroughly tested.
At the present moment, with copper
figured at, say 25 cents per pound
its earnings can be conservatively es-
timated at the rate sof Sc per share
per annum. Even on 15-cent copper
the company would be able to earn
easily $3.50 per share. Clearly, If
there we're assurance of a consider
able length of life, Nevada Consol-
idated would be entitled to sell at a
higher valuation.
at has, however, never shown ore
eserves to assure it of a life of more
than about 10 years at its present
rate of production. The record in
Nevada Consolidated, however. in this
very respect, brings up the point OF
the greatest Importance in consider
ing the investment value of proper
ties of this kind. While 1t Is true
that IS year, has been the life of
the mine, as measured by its ore re-
serves, yet these have been
steadily maintained, so that 1t not
only had IS years of assured life five
years ago, but it also has IS years
assured life today. In other words.
the life, as measured by the ore re-
serves in such properties, is always
a minimum and not a maximum
amount.
"In the case of Nevada Con this
minimum life has already been ex-
tended five years.
"Ore reserves, December 81. 1910,
were 4O,360,S23; tons mined, 1911
1914. 11,964,000; ore reserves. De-
cember 81. 1914, we're 41,020,296.
"At the close of 1910 the Nevada
Consolidated had 10000, 900 tons of
ore and then, after mining nearly
12,O0O,O 900 tons in the next four
years, it had 100000 tons. In
1915 it mined 5000, 900 tons more,
and it is now believed that it will
show a material increase in reserves
over previous years.
1T is already proved that Nevada
Con will liquidate for far more than
the figures five years ago would have
indicated, and 1t is quite likely that
it will still liquidate for even a larger
amount than the present figures
would indicate"

home which she creates. The higher

TO E~XTERMINATE COYOTES

The appropriation by Congress il

In addition to these measures the Ne

ranch owners are cooperating by fur
nishing horses and forage free OF

ing the spread of the disease is fully
realized.
The coyote has always been a pest
to stockmen. but with the advent OF

Although this is regarded as the
most serious, 1t is nOt the first out
break of rabies among coyotes in the
Western States. In 1911 the disease
made its appearance in Wallows
county, Oregon, and spread south

The normal coyote is cunning but

When stricken with rabies, however

dition it does not eat and conse-
quently cannot be killed by poisoned

off the coyotes along the borders of

been done, the infested areas them

SENATOR NEWLANDS
HAS PLANS FOR PEACE

Senator Newlands at Washington
on Thursday introduced a resolution
urging the ~belligerents to consider
terms on which peace might be made.
1t declares that the declared purpose
of the wharf.-the punishment of Ser
bia for intrigues against n of the
Teutonic allies, has been accomplish
ed and that in the wal which has re-
suited from a small commencement,
the Teutonic allies have won on land
while the entente allies have won on
sea.
The people of all the warning ma
tions, the resolution says, want peace
and the rage of conflict makes diplo-
matte parley impossible. The express
ed views of Germany and England
the resolution declares. indicate a
harmony of view as to many things.
1t then proposes that Belgium
should be restored as a buffer state
between Germany and England. that
Poland be restored as a buffer state
between Russia and the Teutonic en-
pires, and that Germany's colonies
be restored or compensated for by
a reimbursement of the boundaries or
sphere of influence in Europe or Asia
Minor and that Russia's access to the
Persian gulf or the Dardanelles be
secured to her. A gradual reduction
of British naval armament and Ger
armies would complete the pro-
gram.

Cyrus and the Persians.

The P~ersians of the time OF Cyrus
we're ZOroastrians. The Persian re-
ligions was primitively monotheistic.
and they allowed no idols or other ma
terial symbols of deity in their tenn
pies. There was less enmity on the
part Of the Jews against the Persians
than against the other great nations
with whom they came In contact. due
probably to the m~onotheism which
characterized the Persian religion. So
Cyrus, whatever else may be said of
him, was certainly not an idolator.-

Local Neu,s
Sammons Obtains Patent

A patent on q device for a COM
bination adjustable shelf, head rest
and wind shield for car windows has
been received by William H. Sam
mons, a we'll known painter in Ely.
The new invention will be greatly
appreciated by the travelling public
as it will afford a convenient place to
set a lunch box, a small hand bag, a
box or other articles of a like nature
and can be easily converted into a
comfortable head rest or wind shield
against drafts that might come
through car windows.
