Hogs Poisoned by Beet Root
Molasses

Deaths in such cases are so sud-
den and mysterious that owners
are likely to suspect cholera. In
vestigation and the after history
will conclusively show that chol-
era is not the cause.
In a case which occurred near
Reno the rancher had been feed
ing cane molasses but being I'M
able to procure a further supply
he changed to beet product,
Shortly after three sows died sud
denly and four more pigs and sew
eral more sows sickened.
The symptoms shown by these
animals were more or less identi-
cal. Most Of them slobbered at
the mouth, were nervously upset
(some excited), all affected with
rapid breathing.
Post-mortem examination re-
vealed marked congestion of the
lungs, abnormal redness of the
lymph glands of the viscera and
blood spots Of varying sizes in the
sac of the heart (pericardial sac.)

WORKING IN HARMONY.

Claude Kitchin of North Caro-
lima, chairman of the ways and
means committee of the house OF
representatives and by virtue OF
his Office floor leader of the ma
iority, looks pitifully small at this
distance from the national capi-
tai, and it is not probable that he
would appear any larger upon
closer inspection. While the Dem.
ocratic and Republican leaders OF
the house are working in harmony
to put the country in a state OF
defense, Kitchin and the other
Bryanites are skulking in the rear
of the defenders, looking for a
chance to scuttle the ship of State
and betraystheir country. Here is
a spectacle for gods and men

Keep Your Cows Comfortable. /
Means Dollars

You cannot make money milk
ing cows unless you keep them
comfortable. The past month of
continued cold weather has been
severe drain on the dairy re-
sources of Nevada. Thousands
of dollars have been lost to the
dairymen of the State through the
decreased production of their
herds. This decrease in produc-
ton unfortunately will not end
when the cold weather is over but
will continue through the milking
period of these couws.
Hence the importance of keep
ing up the milk flow cannot be
over-ernphasized. If, for any rea-
son, the milk production is al
lowed to fall off the original flow
can never be regained until the
COW calves again. This is espec-
tally true of cows that have been
milking for three months or more.
The value of housing is general
.ly understood and p1acticed in
the colder climates. As rule
more losses occur from exposure
in those regions where, where
from the usual mildness of the
climate, sufficient provision is not
made for the severe weather that
occurs at intervals. This is the
case in Nevada.
The dairy cow is very thinly
clad as compared to the beef ani-
NAL with its heavy covering of fat
If she is not furnished with a
warm barn in cold weather she
must warm her body by burning
up her tissues and which must be
replaced with expensive feed. We
do not burn alfalfa hay in our
stoves because it would be an ex-
pensive fuel. On the same prin-
ciple it is cheaper to furnish COW
with warm barn than to force
her to keep up her bodily temper
ature by the use of expensiv fed
fuels.
A warm barn does not neees-
sarily mean an expensive BARN.
Warm barns can be constructed
almost as cheaply as the open
shed that is used to feed beef cat
tie in. To the wise dairyman the
experience of the last month will
prove lesson suggesting the ex-
pedincy of comfortable housing
his COWS when the cold nights
begin next October.-REGAN.

new LAW firm
IN SALT LAKE

Z This week, cards were received
from Salt Lake City announcing
that Henry |. Moore, Thomas l..
Mitchell and Abbot Maginnis
have formed law partnership.
The firm will be known as Moore
Mitchell & Maginnis, with offices
IN the Felt building. During his
residence in Nevada, Mr.. Moore
established an enviable reputation
as lawyer of pronounced abili-
ty. Although an aggressive an
tagonist his uniform Courtesy and
high character has universally en-.
deared him to the members of the
profession among whom he has
many friends who will regret that
his new association will probabl,
prevent his return to Nevada to
reside. For several years Mr.
More has been chief counsel for
the. Orem Interests in Nevada
ana Utah, among which are the
n ev a d a-Douglas Consolidated,
the Nevada Copper Belt Railroad
and the Salt Lake and Utah
Railroad. The success of this firm
is foregone conclusion.

and the tissue alterations 0e-
sions) after death are in close
agreement with the indications Of
potash poisoning in animals.
Beet molasses contains 8 to 10
per cent potassium salts and a
considerable amount of lime,
whilst cane molasses is relatively
free of potash.
Shall we conclude that beet mo-
lasses should not be fed to hogs
No, emphatically no. Beet molas-
ses has been and can be fed with
safety, if discretion in its use is
employed.
Potassium salts in small quanti-
ties are non-injurious, but in ex-
cess will cause weakness and pa
ralysis.
Feed such substances cautious
ly; start with small amounts,
gradually increase the allowance
and never feed them alone or to
excess.
By such method we establish
in animals so fed tolerance for
the drug ingredients found in this
feed and in many others of un-
questionable value.

HARRY HOLLAND
and COL. DODGE

A few more citizens with the
enterprise of Harry Holland
would soon make Yerington
thriving metropolis. A strangers
opinion of a community is based
largely upon the reception and
accommodation given him at the
leading hotel. The Knights Of the
grip as we'll as all visitors will no
longer have reason to complain
of any stagnation in Yerington. A
question arises whether or not
the individual shower baths of the
Holland hotel won't cause many
weary knights of the grip to tarry
longer than necessary this sum-
mer. We should worry. Then
there's that added attraction, the
big window of the hotels spacious
lobby through which these jovial
visitors may gaze to their hearts
content at Yerington's fair sex.
Last but not least, our friend Col.
Dodge, need no longer complain
of cold room when he visits us
in the future.

SOME PEOPLE
HARD TO PLEASE

T. Patrick is in Hawthorne assist
inb the District Attorney of Min
eral county in an investigation of
the death of Frank Weber, who
died few months ago from in
juries he is supposed to have re-
ceived at the hands of DR.. McKin-
ley, superintendent of the Indian
reservation at Schurz. A coro-
ner's jury exonerated the doctor,
but the relatives of Weber were
rot satisfied, and brought the mat
ter up before Governor Boyle and
the attorney general.
The following is taken from the
Manhattan Mercury, published
at Manhattan, Kansas:
"Yes," said Alfred Docking,
Mrs. Frank Weber's father, when
asked as to the rumor OF investi-
CATION into certain quartz mill
located upon the reservation at
Schurz, New, "the searchlight is
being turned upon that mill. 1t
is about fifty yards above the dam
on Walker river, and the head
gates of two canals near the dam,
one on each side of the river. 1t
lis fully recognized that the tail
ings from such mill thus located
will ruin the irrigation plant, and
that cyanides used in the process
will poison the water so that even
fish die. Here at Schurz, this is
the dependence of the Indians for
their families and their stock.
"Weber had not reported this
mill because others higher up had
protested. When, however, he
was asked he would tell the facts
and they knew it. Nearly $780,
900 had been spent by the govern
ment on this project. Every dol
lar that Weber had expended had
been carefully administered. Ex-
pert engineers had passed upon
his work as to its being most eff
ficient. Mencacci, in charge of
ditch work under him, was man
of experience, an Italian, whom
Governor Boyle of Nevada, had
endorsed. He had been in the en-
ploy of the governor and his faith
er.
'"Strenuous efforts will be made
to sidetrack the prosecution.
These were not Nevadans who
made the trouble and were con-
cerned in the tragedy. | have
the highest respect for the vast
body of the citizens of that State.
Miners, ranchmen, business men
and professional men, they have
been kind and sympathetic. They
ar of splendid types of manhood,
and respect law and its enforce
ment. They do not want to see
the fair name of their State
brought into disrepute by import
ed members of society.
Secret service men have again
been in Schurz and vicinity. A
hasty search after additional facts
is the object. In all probability
one of the most rigid federal in
quiries ever made by the federal
overnment will be carried out.
The facts of Weber's death. if pub
ished, would necessitate it. Men
ligh in the departments realize
that. Carson Appal.
