CARSON RIVER
BANK FULL

The warm weather OF the past ten
days has caused the Carson river TO
rise at rapid rate and for the past
week both the East and West forks
have been running bank full. II Is
said that the snow In the mountains
Is very soft and consequently the
warm weather has started heavy
rnnon.
Some of the farmers are OF the be-
lief that the flow will be very short
during the last of the season They
do not anticipate the water to be as
low as last year, but in such degree
at least that the exercise of extreme
measures will be necessary To supply
all growing crops This belief is
somewhat substantiated by the fact
that Lake Tahoe is much lower than
normal, caused by the light runoff of
flood waters in that section.
Others believe that the snow fall
IN the mountains that go to make np
the watershed of the Carson, was con-
siderable heavier than In the Lake
Tahoe section. and advance the be-
lief that the shortage will not be as
great as anticipated. although ad-
hitting short season. compared with
the normal flow

MONO COUNTY
WITHOUT PAPER

The Bridgeport Chronicle-U Union has
ceased publication. according to H. II.
Boone. who spent Saturday AT Bridge
port. and Mono county is without a
newspaper. for the present at least
Mark Edwards. the editor, went to
Fresno last fall and IL practicing law
at that place He secured the seryic-
es of f. Sinclare TO conduct the Union
and for time the new man issued
splendid paper However. 1t did not
seem that he was receiving the sup
port of the people of the community
and he folded his tent and moved
along to better fields
The Chronicle-Union was started in
Amador county by Folger brothers
pioneer newspapermen of California.
Following the mining excitement. the
paper was moved to Alpine county
and during the boom there was pub
lished as daily. When Silver
Mountain declined, the paper was
moved TO Mono county and the Folger
brothers remained in charge until
taken by death.

nent national organization.

GEO, NAMPSON'S
WORK PRAISED

That George II. Hampson, who re-
signed his position as manager of the
Hobart Estate lumber yard at Minden
to become a Y. M. c. A. secretary,
has made good in the work Is learn
ed through the following letter re-
ceived by ]. A. Cardinal from Edward
s. Parsons. of the International Com
mittee of the Y. M. G. A.:
when George H. Hampson of 261O
Regent Sstrect. Berkeley. California,
went overseas six months ago. he gave
you as one of his references Part of
his service was with the Italian pris-
oners returning from Austria and he
also served as business manager The
report from our Italian headquarters
says of him that he did very good
service and was very loyal and re-
liable.
You will. l am sure as friend of
his be glad to know of the fine work
chat he has been doing. We hope
that you will pass on this information
to his other frineds so that they may
realize our cordial appreciation of
the services he has rendered"

MEN COMING

Inc project office received a tele-
gram few DAYS ago from +. f. Wey-
mouth, chief of construction for the
United States Reclamation service
stating that he would be here from his
offices at Denver. Colorado. on Friday
or Saturday, for the purpose of going
over the Newlands project units. SAYS
the Fallon Standard He will prob
ably spend a day at Fallon and will
be accompanied by project manager
John f. Richardson TO the Pyramid
unit whereCbservations will be made
after which they will go on to Minden
and Gardnerville to inspect the pro-
posed extension of the Newlands pro-
Ject. which il acted upon favorably
Will include the lands In the vicinity
or Carson Valley In this project.
IL VIII be remembered that the en-
terprlsing farmers of the upper valley
toed the scratch and beat all contem.
poraries In the formation of al irri-
CATION district, following which appli-
cation was made to the federal gov
ernment for aid in the development
OF their irrigation possibilities which
are said TO be splendid. Included In
the scheme put forward by the upper
valley ranchers is an irrigation wafer
impounding plan which wonld retain
about $4,000 acre feet of water. This
additional supply would give the up
per valley residents greater insur-
ance OF water for irrigation through
out the entire growing period of each
year and allow Of the placing under
cultivation of great additional acre
age now unused through the lack of
water for irrigation.
In all probability the assured pas
sage of the soldier settlement bill ad-
yocated by Secretary Lane. has stim-
ulated interest in the several project
extensions for the Newlands project.
and there is strong probability that
large number of the ex-soldiers OF
the United States will ultimately find
homes and independence here.
