MADE DEFENDANTS IN A
SUIT OVER LAND TAXES
Churchill County Officials Restrained
From Collection of Taxes on Rail-
road Land in This County.

According to the Carson Appeal
the tax officials of Churchill county
nave been made defendants in an ae-
ton brought before the Federal
court at Carson last Friday by the
Southern Pacific Co. The Appeal
says:
Judge harrington has issued
restraining order to show cause in
the complaint of the Southern Pa
cific Railway company versus a e.
Wilson, as tax receiver, L. +.
FRANKIE, auditor; Eli Cam, district
attorney, and ]. c. Coniff, assessor.
all officials of Churchill county, and
the Nevada Tax Commission. The
order prohibits the defendants from
in any manner collecting taxes levied
or assessed for the year 1916 upon
the lands of the plaintiff in that
county or declaring them delinquent.
The defendants are ordered to ap-
pear on December 14th in the / ed
eral court to show cause why the
restraining order should not be
granted during the pendeney of the
action. The plaintiffs filed a bond
of $4,000 in case of costs that de-
PENDANTS may suffer by reason of the
issuance of the order. Judge Brown

$500 PER TON WILL Be
PAID FOR 1917 BEET CROP
Nevada-Ut tab Sugar Co. Announces
Its Intention to Share With Grow
ers Advanced Price in Sugar

f. S. Bramwell, local manager of
the Nevada-Utah Sugar Co, made
public a telegram received from
headquarters at Salt Lake City on
Thanksgiving Day, in which it was
stated that the company had decided
to make an advance of another dol
lar ton in beets running 15 per
cent or over in sugar content.
This means that the crop of 1917
will bring to the beet raisers the
hitherto unheard of price of 81 per
ton. In addition the telegram stat
ed that new contracts are now in
preparation and that all present con-
tracts will be abrogated in conformi-
ty with the new price of 81 per ton.
When it is considered that for
many years the growers of Utah,
Idaho and Colorado have been max
ing nice profit on beets at $3.50
per ton this latest raise of more than
so per cent many additional thous-
ands will be voluntarily handed to
the farmers.
There was considerable jubilation
in and around Fallon when the an
nouncement was made recently that
the company would make a fiat rate
of S6 per ton on IS per cent beets.
But this latest advance means the
distribution of an additional s40,-
600 to the patrons of tie Fallon fac
tory in the event that the acreage
Yields 10000 tons as now seems
more than probable. This announce
ment can hardly fail to vastly in
crease the acreage in the country
adjacent TO Fallon, as even the high
prices now obtainable for alfalfa
could hardly justify the farmers in
refusing to plow up their alfalfa
lands in view of the certainty of Sc
curing a beet crop at a fixed price ia
advance of 81 per ton.
The only fly in the ointment Is to
the consumer, as ii presages a con-
tinued high price for the very neces-
sary commodity sugar. Coming at
this time without solicitation it dem
onstrates that the Nevada-Utah Sug-
ar Co. is strongly inclined to deal
fairly with the beet raisers and is
willing to share with them in the
profits in the business while taking
the chance of their correctness in
sizing up the market the coming
season by making contracts a year
in advance of the sale of the Pro-
duct
Manager Bramwell is now in Yer
ington, where, with this latest mes
sage he will doubtless be enabled to
secure considerable acreage in that
section in addition to that which has
already been signed up.

GRAMMAR SCHOOL NOTES

Prof. X. c. Thompson of the Uni
versity of Nevada will speak at the
Oats Park auditorium at S p. m.
Friday evening, December 16. His
subject will be THE Community
School" This is the second lecture
of the series that the local school
board has planned for the benefit
of the school patrons during the
school year Judging from the large
house that greeted DR.. James when
he spoke here last month, these lee
lures are very popular, and Prof.
Thompson should be greeted by a
full house. Other numbers on the
program will be songs by the Gram
mar School Girls Sextet, aud vocal
solo by Miss zelma Rice A few
folk dances will be given by the girls
of the seventh grade.
Bills are already out announcing
the big dime dance to be given by
the pupils and teachers of the local
Friday evening, Dec. Is, at the Oats
Park auditorium. The funds raised
from this dance will go toward i'm
provement of the Fairgrounds. In
connection with the dance, coffee,
punch, cake, pie, sandwiches, etc.
will be sold by the pupils--eyery-
thing for a dime. The program will
not be confined strictly to old time
dances. The best of music available
will be furnished.
A Thanksgiving entertainment
was given at the West End School
last Wednesday for the benefit of the
teachers and pupils. All of the
grades met in the 2nd grade room.
There were songs and reeitations
given by all four of the classes quar-
tered in that building.

SYMPTOMS AND TREATMENT
OF PINK EYE IN CATTLE
l.. Il. Cline Gives Instructions for
Proper Handling of This Con-
tagious Disease.

Considerable trouble has been re-
ported due to eye affection in cattle
In all cases this has attacked more
than one animal in the herd The
cases SO far examined by me have
been Contagious Keratitis or more
commonly called Pink Eye in Cattle.
The name is derived from the ap-
pearance of the eye in the later
stages of the disease. The disease is
very contagious and may spread rap
idly in a herd. When the cattle are
are first affected, watery discharge
runs from the eye down on to the
cheek and it will be noticed that the
animals shuns the direct sunlight by
keeping the eyelids almost closed
When milk cows are affected
shrinkage in the milk flow is at
once noticeable and the animal
seems out of condition generally. The
irst stages of the disease are soon
followed by a cloudiness of the eye
ball. The density of this growth ov-
er the eye increases rapidly until
the COW is unable to see, and If both
eyes are affected at the same time
special care must be given to be
sure shat the animal secures feed
and water and is not allowed to in
Jure itself by running into objects
It usually takes about ten days for
an animal to become totally blind,
after this time If spontaneous recoy-
cry is going to take place the eye
may begin TO clear up. A months
time. however. may elapse before
sight is regained unless treatment is
given.
When the first stages of pink eye
in cattle are noticed, the disease may
be stopped by thorough washing OF
the affected eye with a saturated so
ution of boracic acid used three
times day for two or three days.
After the eye has begun to get
cloudy IL is necessary to resort TO
more radical treatment A three
per cent solution of silver nitrate is
usually effective If the case has not
developed too far. Stubborn cases
may be treated with yellow oxide of
mercury ointment applied under the
eyelids two or three times day.
One very important part of the treat
ment of pink eye In cows is to keep
the animals away from the sunlight,
the darker the place the better, as
the bright light is very painful to the
animals and aggravates the disease.
One fourth doses of epson salts
should be administered often enough
to keep the patients bowels open. If
cases are allowed to go too long, the
animal may lose the eye sight and be
very hard to restore to normal con-
ditions otherwise.
