AUTO THIEVES

Some one who has perverted sense
of humor and total absence of /;
sense of the rights of others will find
himself in serious difficulty one of tho
cheerful mornings. The work of the
humorist of this species was apparen
last Saturday night when the auto
belonging to Mr.. S. w. Pugh was
taken from the front of the Mutua
Theatre and was left by the thief al
the side of the road running to the
Yerington Station. Whether the ac
tual intention of the person takinl
the machine was to run around while
and then leave it wher, it would be
readily found. or not, it was thief;

Neither young Wilson nor Kicker

the only other exhibitor from Igor

in Mason Valley but a few years
About the time that young Wilson
started his farming career Mr.. Kicker
rented a few acres of land from I. A
Strosnider and commenced by con.
ducting a truck garden. With the in
telligent cooperation and assistance
of his wife Mr.. Kicker has also become
an important breeder of the pure
strains of livestock. Both Wilson and
Kicker specialize in Berkshire pigs.
About three years ago Wilson
graduated from the Agricultural Col

PARENT-TEACHERS
CLUB MEETING

AT the meeting of the Parent Club
on Friday the 9Th instant. Mrs. Fred
Littelll the new president was intro
duced by Mrs. Lamkin the retiring
executive. After few preliminary
remarks Mrs. Littell stated that the
Club started its new year with abou
thirty parents enrolled besides the
teachers of the two schools. She
dwell extensively upon the benefit
that will accurr to both parents and
children from the interest of the form,
er and their cultivation of friendly re.
lations with the teachers.
Judson Smith, one of the trustees
supplemented the theories of the pre-
sident of the club by suggesting that
tSoubles arising from childish dis
orders should be settled by parents
and teachers without appealing to the
trustees. To emphasize his sugges-
tons he called attention to remarks
of pupils who already had made com
ments about the new principal indi-
eating that he is making rapid pro-
gress in winning their friendship
which is the most important feature
of success with any teacher.
Mr.. Martin, the principal, spoke
briefly along the same lines and earn
estly recommended the benefits aris-
ing from the cooperative study of par
ents and teachers of the character OF
each child of the school.
Charles Van Benschoten, enter
tanned the audience by a number oi
humorous recitatons which were well
received.

w. B. THOMPSON OF THE
SHELTER BUYS CRY EAGLE

The Sacramento Bee says that the
Gray Eagle mine the largest develop
ed copper in Siskiyou County, Cali
fornia has been bought by W. B.
Thompson who is the survivor of the
firm of Gum & Thompson smelter.
Engineers state that the property
has 100000 tons of developed chalco-
pyrite ore that averages 5 per cent
copper and the mine promises to be
the greatest copper property in Cali
fornia excepting the Mammoth "a
Kennett.
If the report be true the purchase
may result in the starting up of the
local smelter. Readers are warned
however against accepting this opin-
ion as the basis of statement that il
will affect the starting of the smelter
which every person in Nevada hopes
to see resume operations.

FEDERAL GAME AGENT WILL PROSECUTE
ALL WHO HUNT DUCKS BEFORE OCTOBER

TO tbe Editor of the Reno Gazette
Il wish you would, through the
Gazette. correct any false impression
as TO the opening of the duck season
The season opens under the federal
law on October and closes on jan
uary Is.
The state law opens the season or
September Is, but the state law is
superceded by the federal law and any
one hunting 6anting ducks before
October lays himself liable to prose
cution.
Many contend that the law is of nj
effect because it has been held to be
unconstitutional in Kansas and il
Arkansas (the opposite been held in
South Dakota, however,. These de
cisions dc not nullify the law except in
the state of which they were rendered.
In all other states the federal law OBJ
tains and stand effective until the fed
eral supreme court renders decision
that the law is unconstitutional if
shall so decide.

state will not need drastic enforce
ment of the law but will obey because
it is good law. conceived an en-,

who oppose it.
1t is the fact that, under the fedora

two years, the ducks have increased in
numbers all over the United State
and there is better shooting now thar
for several years.

ENGINEERING EXPERI-
MENTATION AT PANACA

The community of Panaca has been
the sce=c OF the latest experiment in
the development OF underground wa
ter under the direction of +. l.. Bixby,
the federal expert in charge of the
work in this state. The work at
Panaca has consisted of the investi-
CATION of the towns water supply and
an experiment to increase the flow of
water in one of the wells in the vi
cinity The spring from which the
residents of Pauaca are supplied with
water is about a mile and half from
the town. 1t is a warm spring, full OF
hne quicksand, and is enclosed on
one side by an earthen dam. The
scepagc loss from the dam and the
open ditch in which it is carried to
town is over ten pent per cent. Judg-
ing by the experiment with the quick
sand springs at Las Vegas the Uni
versity engineers think that pumping
out the quicksand will greatly in
crease the flow. They estimate that
the construction of concrete dam
and pipe line to prevent seepage
and the removal of the quicksand will
increase the flow from about 5000 gal
Ions per minute to 4,500 gallons. A
pipe line would also free the towr
from any danger of infection through
an unsanitary water-supply.
The well in which tests were made
was thirty-fve feet deep, the bottom
touching gravel stratum which in
terfered considerably with pumping
Perforated iron casing has been sen
for, and this will eliminate the cav
irr-in Of the gravel. The flow o
water has already been increased
and with the deepening Of the vel
through the gravel conditions in
dicate that permanent water sup
ply will be produced. The wate'
from the springs of the district is
warm, but the water from this vel
IS extremely cold. Up to date there
has been no artesian water develop
ed in Lincoln county. The expense

are working in their interest, this law
will finally be adjusted to the salts
faction of all. There is no question
that federal control is much the bet
will be for the best interest of the
sportsmen, will insure a continuation
of the sport and will not be liable to
change every two years just because
someone wants to shoot ducks lit
tie longer and no concern other than
to get the ducks he can as quickly
as possible.
1t is the intention of the official OF
the department of agriculture to in
vestigate carefully all reports of viola.
tions made to the departments in
spectors or wardens and to prosecute
all such violations in the federal
courts. in which tribunals no such de-
cisions as mot guilty but don't do II
again" are likely to be rendered
In this connection it is pointed out
that prosecutions may be instituted
any time within three years after the
offense. The offender will have nc
knowledge that he has been detected
until he is served with warrant
authorized from Washington.
Anyone wishing to see this law en-
forced and having direct evidence o.
its violation is invited to report the
facts to the departments representa-
tive in Nevada, who will forward the
date to Washington.
Very truly yours,

who will be stationed in the farmin,
centers of the state. J. !. McGinnis

from Lovelocks to Metropolis. Mr.
McGinnis is graduate of Oregon

charge of the southwestern district
His headquarters from April tc
November will be at Yerington and a.
Las Vegas the remaining months
the year. His work will lie in Smith
and Mason valleys and the agricul
tural of Clark and Lincoln counties
The chief work of these men will bt
to arouse interest in progressive an,
scientific farming methods by worl
among the ranchers and the organiza-
ton OF boys clubs.
The results accomplished by E. B
Oxley, who has been engaged in this
work in Doublas county since last
March, have proven the effectiveness
of this means of creating enthusiasm
for the agricultural possibilities o.
Nevada. The addition of two new
men to the staff will stimulate this
interest throughout the state.
