Battle Mountain.
Battle Mountain, neighboring town
to Austin is facing year that will be
a banner year of her history so far.
for in mining Battle Mountain is quite
active already. They are working
about as many men as Austin and
there are prospects in some of the
larger mines that are making some Of

Fallon.
West of us, Fallon is planning a
year of busy activity with her sugar
industry, and this with the great al
falfa interests, her many tributary
points, like Wonder and Fairview will
make her a busy town that Austin
may be proud to have for neighbour.
| Austin.
But here in Austin the prospect was
never so bright before for fine yea:
as 1t is this coming season. Along
with the great development that is
coming to Nevada, Austin will get her
share. For the eyes of the investing
world were opened in 1915 by the de
cree of the prize judges in the worlds
fair at San Francisco. Formerly Ne
vada had been called the sage brush
state in derision, and the outsiders had
been misled for many years by false

! the past. But when the state Of Ne
vada gained more prizes than any
state or any nation, as this state did
at San Francisco, then the world be
gan to wonder and then to inquire.

will give added impetus to the pros
perity of Lander County. Then too,
Battle Mountain has discovered that
she has an underflow close to the sur
face. Who knows but that there
might be enough underlying water to
turn many of the sagebrush wastes
into fertile farms, and who knows how
many of these so-called barren wastes
may be reclaimed by the scientific
methods of dry farming.
So when it comes to looking the sit
uation in the eye. even a blind man
could sec that 1916 will be the greatest
year that Nevada has ever known, and
that although the Reveille does not
claim that every man. woman and
child in Austin is going to be amillion,
aire. this paper predicts that Austin
is going to achieve the glory that was
here in the palmy days, when silver
was worth $1.29 an ounce.

German ayiators, recentiy, won his
ninth fight in the air and destroyed
another enemy areoplane. His last
victory, which brought him the high

Pour lie Merite," was witnessed by
a war correspondent of the "Krefelder
Zeitung," who describes it as follows.
From the window of my room In
one of the towns behind the German
western front was watching a COM
pany of infantry which assembled in
the street. Suddenly heard the rattl-
ing of machine guns and looking up I
noticed two areoplanes which were de-

each other in height of about three
thousand feet directly above the vii

rison to watch the combat in breath
less excitement. Not sound was ut
tered by the assemblage for several
minutes. but shout went up when a
dark object was seen to fall from one
of the areoplanes and the machine, at
ter turning summersault in the air,
fell with frightful velocity.
THE aeroplane crashed into the gar
den of my house and was dashed to
pieces. The pilot, Lieutenant Hobbs
of the. British Aviation Corps, was still
breathing when we dug him from the
debris, but he expired within few
minutes. The body of his companion,
Lieutenant Johnstown Tudor, who had
fallen out of the machine after being
shot through the head. was found ter
ribly mangled in the street few hun
dred yards away.

the two English aviators were de,
