RATIONING OF SUGAR, JULY /

Beginning July |, more drastic ra-
tioning governing the use of sugar
will go into effect in Nevada All
manufacturers must procure ceruh-
Gates as heretofore, in addition. all
whole salers, retailers. hotels, restau-
rants, bakers and saloons must Sc
cure certificates from the Federal
Food Administrator OF Nevada, or
from their County Administrator, be-
fore they can purchase sugar for any
purpose other than household use.
The principal change affecting this
state is the reduction of sugar allow
ed for ice-cream from 100 per cent to
Is per cent OF last years requirements.
There are many saloons in the
state which probably have not under
stood that their sugar usage is limit
ed These will not be allowed to
purchase any cane or beet sugar pro-
ducts after July without presenting
the necessary certificates, and they
and the dealers from whom they buy
are warned that no exceptions will
be made, nor will any evasion be toll
Grated.
Housewives, as heretofore, may pur
chase sugar in IS lb. lots for canning
and preserving. Dealers must not
exceed this limit in any case. If GUS
toners object to the rulings they
should be referred to the county or
state food administrator. For table
use, the rule OF three pounds for ev-
cry ninety meals served, or three
pounds per person per month, has not
been changed.
a serious shortage. both in sugar
and ships, necessitates strict observ-
ance of these rules 1t is expected
that Nevada people will recognize the
vital necessity for conservation and
will conform rigidly to these rules
In compliance with the above or
der. ]. A. Cardinal, Douglas County
Food Administrator, seized two sacks
of sugar at the Minden Depot, The
sugar was shipped by San Francisco
firm to men residing near Mnden.
The sale or purchase OF this amount
OF sugar is in violation OF the food
laws and resulted in the seizure. 1t
is believed the license to sell sugar OF
the San Francisco house will be re-
voked and that the purchasers will
be fined.

Self Feeders a Boon to Hog Raisers

AT the end OF twenty-four days lot
A had made net gain of 1905 pounds
or the daily gain of l.68 pounds per
day. Lot b gained $40 pounds, or
the daily gain of LIS pounds per day
The important point in this test is
that the lot that ate tankage made the
most money for Mr.. Strosnider. The
426 pounds of tankage eaten cost
three and one half cents per pound or
$l49l, and added $s92s worth Of
pork more than lot b; or net profit
OF $4434.
The feeding value OF tankage was so
conclusive in twenty-four days that it
was decided to feed all the hogs tank
age for the remainder of the fattening
period of six days.

First: That it pays to fatten hogs
in Mason Valley with high priced
grain and low priced potatoes.
Second: That it pays bigger to
fatten hogs with tankage, grain and
potatoes than with grain and pota-
toes alone-each pound of pork being
produced four and one half cents
cheaper when tankage was fed.

PIUTES HAVE WAR DANCE.

The Piutes recently held big
war dance on the reservation near
Fallon and at one time $50 Indians
were in the dance, the greatest dem

in the army and they said the war
dance was part of great patriotic
demonstration that had been started
in all states in support of the war.

The Hogs Before the Fattening Period

The pen that made the greatest
gain was called lot A: the other pen
was designated as lot b. Each lot
contained % hogs, which were fed
potatoes, whole barley and whole
smutty wheat, all boiled together, ,ex
cept that lot A received tankage
The ratio OF feed was two and one
half pounds of potatoes to one pound
OF grain. The hogs were given all
they would eat OF this feed fed thru
self feeders. The single sided self
feeder which is shown in the accom-
paning picture was used in the test.
With this bin or feeder kept fell the
hogs were allowed TO eat at will.

SMITH VALLEY NOTES.

During two hour period last Tues
day afternoon two. and a half inches
OF rain fell in Smith Valley. Light
ming and thunder accompanied the
rain, which fell in, torrents. The
church was the only building struck
and the fire was put out so quickly
that small damage resulted.
The standing hay was beaten down,
the cut hay was afloat in many OF
the. fields 1t is feared that the grain
fields are so badly hattened down that
serious loss will result. Garden truck
and berry patches also showed the
i'll effects of the downpour.
The G.. w. Wilson ranch in Mason
Valley had several fields of grain
damaged as the flood came down
through the open headgates.

of France and This Time by Way of SPAIN

ped at least two days or more after
the fever has left you, or if you are
over 30 or not strong, stay in bed four
days or more. according to the sever
ity of the attack.
EXTERNAL APPLICATIONS,
/ In order to stimulate the lining of
the air passages to throw off the
grippe germs, to aid in loosening the
phlegm and keeping the air passages
open, thus making thu breathing cas-
Ter, Eick's VapORub will be found eff
festive. Hot, wet towels should be ap-
piled over the throat, chest and back
between the shoulder blades to open
the pores. Then VapoRub should be
rubbed in over the parts until the skin
is red, spread on thickly and covered
with two thicknesses of hot flannel
cloths. Leave the clothing loose
around the neck as the heat of the
body liberates the ingredients in the
form OF vapors. These vapors, inhaled
with each breath, carry the medica-
ton directly to the parts affected. At
the same time, VapoRub is absorbed
through and stimulates the skin, at
tracing the blood to the surface, and
thus aids in relieving the congestion
within.
HUN TO AVOID THE DISEASE.
Evidence seems to prove that this
is a germ disease, spread principally
ny human contact, chiefly through
coughing, sneezing or splitting. So
avoid persons having colds-which
means avoiding crowds-common
drinking cups, roller towels. etc. Keep
up your bodily strength by plenty of
exercise in the open air, and good
food. Above all, keep free from colds,
as colds irritate the lining of the air
passages and render them much bet
ter breeding places for the germs.
Use Vick's VapoRub at the very
melt little VapoRub in spoon and
inhale the vapors, or better still, use
VapoRub in benzoin steam kettle. II
this is not available, use an ordinary
tea-kettle. Fill half-full of boiling wa
ter, put in half teaspoon Of vapo-
Rub from time to time-keep the ket-
tie just slowly boiling and inhale the
steam arising.

form, Menthol and Camphor with such
volatile oils as Eucalyptus, Thyme,

is applied to the body heat, these in

VapoRub-sis comparatively new in
New York State and New England and

sections Of the country it is the stand

NO OCCASION FOR PANIC.
Spanish influenza, which appeared
in Spain in May, has all the appear
ance of grip or la grippe, which has
| swept the world in numerous epidem.
| les as far back as history runs. Hip.
| pOcrates refers to an epidemic in Alp
| b. c. which is regarded by many to
| have been influenza. Every century
has had its attacks. beginning with
1881, this. country has, had five cpl
denies. the last in 1SS9.90.
There is no occasion for panic-in-
fluenza itself has a very low percent
age OF fatalties-not over one death
out of every four hundred cases, &C
cording to the y. C. Board of
Health. The chief danger lies in COM
plications arising, attacking principals
ly, patients in run down condition
those who don't 60 to bed soon enough
or those who get up too early.
THE SYMPTOMS.
Grippe, or influenza as it is now
called, usually begins with chill fol-
lowed by aching. feverishncss and
sometimes nausea and dizziness, and
a general feeling of weakness and de-
preston. The temperature is from
100 to 1O4, and the fever usually lasts
from three to five days. The germs
attack the mucuous membrane, or lin
ing of the air passages-nOSe, throat
and bronchial tubes-there is usually
a hard cough, especially bad at night,
often times sore throat or tonsilitis,
and frequently all the appearances of
a severe head cold. -
THE TREATMENT.
Go to bed at the first symptoms,
not only for your own sake but to
avoid spreading the disease to others
take a purgative. eat plenty Of nour-
fishing fooa remain perfectly quiet
and don't worry. Quinine, aspirin or
Dover's Powder, ETC., may be admins
tered by the physicians directions to
relieve the aching. But there Is no
cure or specific for influenza-the
disease must run its course, but Ma
ture will throw off the attack if only
you keep up your strength. The chief
danger lies in the complications which
may arise. Influenza SO weakens the
bodily resistance that there is danger
of pneumonia or bronchitis develop
ing, and sometimes inflammation OF
the middle ear, or heart affections
For these reasons, 1t is very import
ant that the patient remain in bed
until his strength returns-stay in
