T. l.. ODDIE ON
POLITICAL TRIP

Tasker l.. Oddie, Ex-Governor OF
Nevada, and who is seeking the Re-
publican nomination for that office
at the coming primaries, spent Sun
day and Monday in this county meet
ing the voters and acquainting them
with the principles for which he
stands.
Paramount in Mr.. Oddie's platform
is retrenchment in the expense of
state government. AT a time when
the citizens of this great country are
economizing in every way possible be-
cause of war conditions, Mr.. Oddie
stands firm In his belief that the same
should hold good toward state and
county government, reducing the tax
es to the minimum without impairing
efficiency. This can be done and Mr..
Oddie's experience as Governor of the
state qualities him for the task.
In the matter of the wet and dry
issue he has taken the stand that the
conservation OF food demands that all
loyal people support the prohibition
movement.
Every citizen, in fact every person
now enjoying the privilege OF living
and being a part of this Nation, must
give their hearty support to the gov
ernment OF the United States. We
must win this war and win !. as
quickly as possible" declared Mr..
Oddie.
He is on a whirlwind tour of the
state and will visit every county be-
fore returning to his Reno home.
Knowing as he does, the roads from
one end of the state to the other, he
expects to make a. record trip. From
here he went to Yerington and from
that point will head to Ely and make
a Complete circle of the state.

DAYTON CROPS
NEED WATER

A committee of Dayton ranchers
visited Minden Tuesday on water mat
ters, and urged that the farmers of
this Valley Immediately release srlfi-
cient water to save 500 acres of grow
ing wheat and $50 acres of potatoes In
the Dayton district. A committee OF
Carson Valley farmers took up the
matter and that while 37OO inches of
water was flowing into this Valley,
400 inches of water was passing the
McTannahan Bridge below Carson
Valley. The shortage at Dayton, no
doubt is caused by conditions In the
Empire section, and that is now being
investigated, since the river below
that point is dry.
A serious shortage of water exists
in Carson Valley and while the older
water owners will get by with a sec
ond crop, many of the later water ap-
propriators will not have water with
which to irrigate their second crop.
Sf~'f N'AO'e 40 btlhS u save
grain crops. and alfalfa fields will be
allowed to suffer where necessary.
For the past two weeks the pastures
have not been irrigated and are dry
ing up at an alarming rate. Pasture
to Carson Valley farmers is a most
valuable part of their farm, owing to
the extensive dairying industry.
There is no doubt that the crops in
the Dayton district are suffering for
want of water. but the loss there will
In no way compare to that which the
shortage of water means to the farm
ers of Carson Valley. which is con-
seryatively estimated at $225,00O
Mr.. Quill of the State Engineers Of
flee is helping Water Commissioner
Krummes in the distribution of water

inches OF water is being released from

"Buz" Soufhluorfh
Wins High Praise

Hartford SouthwOrth, former resi-
dent of Gardnerville and a graduate
from the engineering department of
the University of Nevada, is holding
a responsible position with the recla-
nation service in Utah and the POGO
tello Tribune has the following to say
of his work:
Crops on the Fort Hall tract never
looked better than they do this season
and the major portion of the credit
for this condition Is due to the wise
distribution of the water under the
direction of c. H. Southworth, super
visor Of bitches, who has been in
charge of the past two seasons. The
natural condition this year have been
somewhat in his favor, it is true, but
never before has the distribution been
more popular with the settlers. A
year ago the weather conditions were
such that when the dry spell came
every foot Of ground had to have
water at once and which overtaxed
the system, which is inadequate at
best; the result was that rotation had
to be resorted to, and obviously some
Of the crops had to burn. This year
however, Supervisor Southworth de-
cided to eliminate rotation, and being
favored to some extent by the weather
man in the beginning of the season.
there has been water for all purposes
and barring the natural clogging OF
bitches, the result has been generally
satisfactory.

In the Western department of the re-

Corporal Harris, who has recently

CHRISTMASCIFTS
TO BE TABOOED
Council of Defense To
Discourage Xmas
Giving

Beginning in September the Council
OF National Defense will inagurate an
active campaign to discourage the
giving of Christmas gifts in order to
conserve labor of the country, relieve
transportation and stimulate economy.
1t is considered of greatest Importance
that merchants should be advised of
this plan Immediately that they may
properly adjust their buying to this
end.
The statement of the Council Of Ma
tional Defens upon the matter Is as
follows:
THE Council of National Defense
and Advisory Commission have re-
ceived inquiries as to the attitude of
of the Government toward Christmas
buying. Manufacturers and mer-
chants are desirious to be advised at
this time in order intelligently to plan
for their Christmas stocks. Therefore
the Council of Defense and Advisory
Commission now announce that It Is
ftheir belief that Christmas giving,
which involves the purchase of gifts,
should be discouraged as relieving to
that extent the present heavy burden
placed upon labor, transportation and
other resources of the nation, and al
so as being In harmony with the
previous announcement of the Coun-
ell and Advisory Commission urging
thrift and economy upon the country.
These principles involve far-reach-
ing mondification In our Christmas
customs, but they can be accomplish
ed without impairing the essential
value of Christmas as an institution.
"In the meantime, manufacturers
and merchants should be modified re-
garding the Governments policy, In
order that they may plan their Christ
mas stocks with knowledge of the call
which will later be made on the gen.
eral public

MRS. LEWIS
PASSES AWAY

Mrs. Leolinc Margaret Lewis. one
of the few pioneer women of the
very early days of Carson Valley,
passed away at Genoa Wednesday
morning alter long illness. Her
death was due to the infermities Incl
dent to old age. she being past 81
years of age.
Mrs. Lewis was borL In Circleville,
Ohio in 1887. In 1862 she was mar
ried to Ira A. Lewis at Bloomington,
Ill. In the following year they NOV
ed to Nevada and since that time
Mrs. Lewis has made her her home
in Douglas county.
She is sister of those two sturdy
pioneers Of Nevada, VIM. Cradle
laugh. Uncle Billie as he was
iamiliarly known, and Judge Cradle
Daugh, who, under President Buchan-
nan was appointed tho first territorial
Judge of the End Judicial district of
utah in 1857. At Salt Lake he en-
deavored to hold court at which time
U. >. troops were required to main
tain order. He investigated the
Mountain Meadow massacre and was
convinced that the Mormons were at
the bottom of the matter. He oc-
cupied the position OF U. s. District
Judge until the territory OF Nevada
came into existence when he was
selected as the first delegate to
Congress. During tho Civil War he
returned to Ohio and raised a regi-
ment but was unable to. secure his
commission because OF being 4 resi-
dent OF Nevada. However, President
Lincoln acted in his behalf. He led
his troops with great gallantry and
was wounded several time.
Three children survive Mrs. Lewis.
Chas. r. Lewis, Mrs. d. r. Hawkins
and Mrs. N. P. Morrison. all Of whom
reside in this county.
In her early life the deceased. was
an Episcopalean, but ON a visit to her
native state about six years ago she
united with the second Presbyterian
Church OF Bloomington, Ill.
When she was young girl. during
the Civil War, Mrs. Lewis, with anoth-
'er young lady. was called upon to
add ess two different regiments of
Union soldiers leaving for the front.
On recent visit to her old home, she
attended christening of her great,
grand-child. To her surprise she
found that the childs other great
grandmother was the young lady
who assisted Mrs. Lewis in bidding
forewell to the soldier boys in that
early day.
By lovable character, Mrs. Lewis
endeared herself to the entire COM
munity and she was held In the. very
highest esteem by wide circle of
friends in western Nevada. Her great
wish was to see the end OF this pres
ent crisis and to live until we again
had peace and victory. He who gov
governs all things saw fit to call her
from earthly cares before that day and
her resting place will be beneath the
mountains OF Genoa that she loved so
