WILL SUPPLY DATA
FOR STOCK FEEDING

In order to relieve the drought
situation prevailing in the western
part Of the United States, the depart
ment of agriculture has established
an emergency clearing house at Great
Falls. Montana, with Mr. J. c. Burns
in charge. The duty of this office will
be furnishing information to western
stock growers who are looking for
food. The Office will also be in touch
with market centers so that they will
keep up to date in all respects. An
eastern Office has been established at
the Exchange building in South st.
Paul. Mimi. with Mr. Sleeps in charge.
Also offices are being established at
Chicago and Kansas City.
The forest service has already
furnished these offices with a complete
list of all the permittees in district
four, which includes Nevada. 1t is
desired that all requests for informa-
ton be sent directly to the above
Offices instead of through the super
visor's Offices of this state. The above
arrangement has been made by the
department of agriculture for the
purpose of relieving the situation
caused by the drought and to provide
cheap forage or winter pasture for
such stock as are in need of the
same.

STILL LOOKING FOR
MEXICAN MURDERER

Sheriff Springer and Constable
Brady returned last night from the
vicinity of Pronto. where they had
been hunting the Mexican, Lopez, who
shot and killed S. Fukuroda, a Jap
anese, at Golconda last Friday. Con-
stable Brady returned to his home at
Golconda.
Nothing has been heard concerning
the movements of the murderer since
Saturday night, when he was seen
near Pronto, a station on the Western
Pacific twenty miles west of here.
Sheriff Springer, however, was of
opinion that the Mexican had started
east after entering the Blue Hills,
near Pronto. and so he returned to the
district this morning to continue the
search, using Western Pacific
speeder to get to Jungo.
The sheriff is in hopes that lack of
food will force the murderer to make
known his whereabouts.
At press time no word had been re-
ceived here from Sheriff Springer.

SALVATION ARMY TO
Be HELPED BY ELKS

With the members of the Elks lodge
in every county in charge, campaign
to secure $4,000 for use Of the Sal
vation army in home service work
will be started in Nevada within the
next fews weeks and will end with
an extensive one-week drive late in
September.
Each county has been given a quota
to fill and some of the most prominent
men in every community in the state
will be in charge Of the drive.
THE home service work of the Sal
walton Army, like its war record. is a
splendid example of what can be done
by trained workers toiling in field
where other organizations never
tread" said r. E. Leeper of the Elks,
who is in charge of the drive.
"The work of the army has peculiar
interest to Nevada and the Elks of
the state are behind the drive to the
man and will make it success in
every county and every community
Maintaining the Salvation Army in
its many different activities has been
big problem in the past The old
methods have been changed and from
now on the army will work under a
budget system and the $4,000 asked
from Nevada will be all that the
army will ask for year.
This money will be used to help
maintain the idustrial school at Lyt-
ton, Cal, where Nevada children are
welcome and where some are now be-
ing trained it will be used to help
maintain the maternity hospital for
the Pacific coast province, where Ne
vada girls are cared for and it will
be used in extending the home service
work of the army corps in Nevada
At Tonopah a corps will be stationed
and as the army is extending, other
corps may soon be stationed in the
state.
The home service work of the army
suffered greatly during the war ant
none of the money previously raised
for war work is available for home
work.

circus has been considered the great
est of all trained animal shows and
has lived up to that reputation. 1t Is
not one of the small shows that usu-
ally make cities of this size, but Is
one of the really high-class circuses.

cause of the long haul from Salt Lake

them to stop and feed the animals
even If they did not put on a per-
formance here.
The circus will play in Elko on Sep

go to Reno, from Reno to a small
town this side of Sacramento, then
to San Jose and San Francisco, ac-
cording to Dixon Van Valkenberg, ad-
vance agent who was here this morn
ing. The last-named stop holds great
interest for Van valkenberg, as he
will reach San Francisco in time to
witness the review of the Pacific feet,
