out of nowhere and announced that
he had broken the transcontinental
record from San Francisco to New
York by making the distance in six
days ten hours and fifty minutes.

made the run promptly flooded the
newspapers with extravGgantly writ
ten descriptions of the great feat
Along with others the Standard re-
ceiyed bunch of this press stuff
and were asked to call to mind
when Bobby dashed through Fall
ion in his mad rush for the record
However, as we had no recollection
of the peace and quiet of our town
being disturbed by the volleys from
"Bobby's" exhaust, we forebore to
make any comment on the feat. At

GOVERNMENT TAKES HAND
IN fXTERM|NAT|NC COYOTES
Representative of Department of
Agriculture Arrives in Fallon to
Direct Campaign.

r. A. Ward, representing the Bu-
reau of Biological Survey of the
Department of Agriculture at Wash
ington, d. c., was in Fallon last
week for the purpose of inaugural
ing a vigorous campaign for the ex-
termination of coyotes.
The recent outbreak of rabies
among the herds in the ranges of
Churchill county has emphasized
the necessity of doing something to
stop the ravages of the disease be-
fore it spreads SO far and wide as to
become uncomfortable. Mr.. Ward
states that there are now eight men
in the field hunting and trapping
coyotes in this county and altogeth-
er in the State about $50 men, who
are averaging about 1000 animals
per month. At this rate, If it can
be maintained, assisted by the raw
ages of the disease among the af-
fected animals, it is believed that
the situation can be controlled.
Mr.. Ward has organized the coun-
ty into districts and expects the CO.
operation of the farmers and stock
men in assisting in eradicating the
evil. In other parts of the State
Mr. Ward says that it is the custom
to provide the hunters with saddle
horses and furnish meals and feed
for their animals. The magnitude
of the task makes it impossible for
the department, even when assisted
by the State and county to pay the
entire expense of the campaign. AS
the work is solely in the interest of
the farmers and other owners of
stock, it is not probable that there
will be any lack of cooperation on
the part of everyone.

erts is patroling the country from

SW|NGLE NEICHBORHOOD
BUILDING new HIGHWAY
Road Will Branch on at Trolson
Ranch and Continue to
Hazen.

A new high line road is being
plated from Hazen to the Swingle
neighborhood and will connect with
the Lahontan road near the Trolson
ranch west of Fallon. Although it
is estimated that 1t will increase the
mileage between Fallon and Hazen
about three miles, it is believed that
by reason of its better location it
will bid fair to become the main
Travelled road between these points
especially in the wet season when
the flats are impossible to automo-
bile travel.
1t is understood that the residents
of that neighborhood have yolun-
teered to place the new road in con-
dition and the commissioners at
their meeting last week authorized
it's construction by appointing d. s.
Hartman as appraiser for certain
lands that will be taken from the
homesteads of c. L. Lehman and v
Fulkerson.
1t is understood the new road viii
leave the old one on the Hazen fiat
at about the old we'll and swinging
to the south will take TO the high
ground and avoid all the flats and
the drainage from the canal, as well
as the stretch of heavy sand between
the Leete ranch and the first rail
road crossing, at present one of the
bad spots on the Hazen-Fallon road.

CONCRETE SNOWSHEDS
PLANNED BY THE s. Il

Because the road yearly has suf-
fered great losses through the burn
ing of snowsheds on the mountain
division, officials of the Southern
Pacific are considering the plan of
building reinforced concrete snow
sheds at frequent intervals as fire
breaks. These, it is believed, will
prevent the spread of the flames to
any great extent should any part of
the structure take fire.
During the past week contractors
to view the snowsheds and the prob
lens of construction to be met.
These contractors expressed the be-
lief that the sheds could be con-
structed at reasonable cost. No
bids have been submitted as yet.
Should concrete sheds prove feasible
the miles of road covered eventually
will be made of that material.
At present the crews of the road
are making rapid progress in repair
ing and replacing sheds. The wood
en- structures last about thirty years
The policy of the company is to re-
place certain sections early.
