USE VICTORY ELOUR

To the en- dthat stocks of Victory

lied without waste. the Fedesal Food
administrator for Nevada has request
ed all housewives, bakers and restau-
rants to continue the purchase and
use of substitutes 70 be used at their
convenience and III any quantities
they desire sach use is not manda-
tory, but is necessary in view OF the
utter criminality OF food waste under
'present conditions of world shortage.
Stark famine is blighting hall the
world" runs the food administration
sttement. "and no loyal citizen OF Ne
vada is willing for the small stocks
OF substitute flours in the hands ot
cur grocers TO spoil and be wsated.
In so far as this waste occurs, Just
so far are we guilty OF withholding
foodstuffs from starving millions. And
exactly as we meet our present press
ing obligations TO save and send food.
just So will we be judged by future
generations as having done our duty
to humanity. True, some OF these
other fours cost slightly more than
wheat. but the quantities are so small.
and the time during which it will be
necessary for us to use them so short.
that the difference is not appreciable.
Let us meet this small demand, as we
have met all others

The u. S. government set price Of

as to whether the price will be lower

NEARING THE END OF
LONG nDUGHT CASE

In the Federal Court Monday the
matter of George Pyaft, bankrupt,
was brought up. The proceedings
were instituted by the divorced wife,
who petitions for review Of the case
and an accounting by the bankrupt.
The complaint as argued before the
court is to the effect that Pyatt at
the time of declaration had ample
means ta provide the $50 a month
alimony allowed in the lower courts.
There is question OF jurisdiction in
relation to the other matters. The
court has the matter under davise-
ment.
The old case of Miller & Lux vs..
about so defendants along the water
shed of the Walker River was also up
on a stipulation review The attor
neys for both parties stipulating that
the adjustment of the water rights
might be made by order Of Judge Far
rington. The Judge in turn suggests
that the signing Of the court order
provided it agreed to by counsel of
both parties, be made by some other
Judge to be called in. Following such
an order subsequent orders could be
properly signed by Judge harrington,
as they would be an amendment to
the original order
1t is now believed that by such a
stipulation as to distribution that this
case, which has occuPed the court for
over ten years, will be settled to the
satisfaction OF ell parties.
In the entire water course, involv-
ing several hundred water owners,
there are but six, on the upper end
OF the stream unaffected by the case
or the decision.
1t is anticipated that the entire mat
ter will be disposed of within few
weeks at the latest-Carson News.

be improved 1t is observed by many
that in the towns and cities through

out sooner. Let us keep our masks
on for the sake OF the other fellow,
if not our own.

leave her home for many days and
her genial presence is much missed
in all Red Cross work Hopes for her

WAR DEPARTMENT
PRAISES NEVADA

To the Press OF Nevada:
,Adjutant-C General Sullivan is in re-
ceipt of telegram from General
Crowder congratulating Nevada on
the fact that she took second place in
the nationwide race in the classify
ing Of the remaining registrants of the
September, 1918, registration.
A short time ago the FIRST race for
the classification and physical exam
ination of all registrants between the
ages of l9 and SO in which every State
in the Union was making strenuous
competition, Nevada also took second
place and resulted in this State OBJ
tanning prominent recognition by
Washington as well as by eht other
less fortunate States.
The success OF Nevada in making
the splendid record she did in both
races, is in large measure due to the
work OF the boards OF the State. Ev-
cry board entered into the spirit of
the race from the very first, and with
out any limit to the amount of time
they expended on this war work, lent
every effort to complete their respec-
tive tasks in record time. Had one
board failed to respond, the entire
States work woul have been in vain.
The first county to finish her work
i'll this race was Esmeralda The
counties were divided into ones dot
and the two dot classes according to
the number OF registrants. The one
dot included the counties with lesser
registration than the two dot. .Washoe
county with the geratest number OF
registrants OF any county i'll the State
took first honors in the two dot class
and was amongst the first counties
to finish the work
