DUCKS WON'S MIX WITH
AIRPLANES THEY SAY

Ducks do not like ~airplanes. At
least the Nevada ducks are not fond
of the gasoline propelled birds Of the
air and managers OF private game
preserves in the state declare that
their birds have flown just because
the airplanes came near the preserve.
George Wingfield has a preserve at
Fallon and according to the caretaker
he was feeding something like 500
wild ducks during the late summer
and early fall. Just about the time
the duck season opened a passenger
carrying airplane arrived in Fallon
and made many trips over the pre-
serve. The ducks gave the big ma
chine the "once over and decided
that it was their move. They did not
like to give up the good feeding
grounds. but the head duck advised
his subjects to duck" and they did.

POULTRY Is assessed IN BUT
FEW COUNTIES OF THE STATE

Poultry-raising is not followed to
any great extent in Misunderstanding
from returns made to the State tax
commission by the county assessors.
The low total of $21. $50 is astonfsh-
ing, to say the least. But a large
of the surprise is removed
when it is noted that no poultry at
all raj assessed in either of the
counties of Clark, Douglas, Eureka,
Lincoln, Lyon. Mineral or Ormsby.
Washoe county shows up as the
leader in poultry raising, with a valu-
alton of 1914. Elko ranks next,
with Churchill following. Pershing,
Humboldt, White Pine and Nye show
up with figures above $1,000 each,
but Esmeralda, Lander and Storey
have few of the feathered stock on
their lists.-[Carson City News.

pears about the same old animal that
he always was, with much o ten
dency to root and put his feet in the
trough than to fly.
However, it is very foolish to yield
to depressing thoughts. Armlsticc
Day should forever be one of glori-
fication. Then American spirit was
at it's high-water mark. The Aneri-
can people, in the face of the So-ld's
doubts and the contempt If enemies,
had just given a demonstration Of
what they could do.
American spirit broke a line of de-
lenses that all the allied armies had
considered impregnable, and which
no n else had thought of attempting.
In SO doing they broke the back Of
the war. The spirit shown by the
American soldiers was something
marvellous. There was nothing else
like it in the war. There was a de-
termination and fervor, a daring of
all obstacles, that astonished the
world and broke the German spirit.
AS American spirit could do that
in war, it can do the same thing in
peace. The display of the same sac
rifice. the same discipline, the same
resolution, can resolve our little in
dustrial and social problems like the
smoke before the morning SUM-. All
that is needed is leadership and de-
termination, the spirit Of service and
of loyalty to the historic American
ideals.

OFFICIALS HARD NIT
BY TERRIFYING H.C.l

The high cost of living has been
brought home to State officials who
are called upon to travel from one
place to another in Nevada on official
business, declares the Reno Gazette.
Under the law they are allowed IS a
day for expenses, vouchers to be in
all cases taken and turned in for re-
endorsement. These figures were
based On living conditions before war
time prices. and there being no ave-
nue. of escape from the law, those
compelled to make trips into the
State have found that the sum al
lowed does not cover their expenses.
An official who recently made a
trip to Tonopah, in figuring up his
stay in the mining camp, has discov-
cred that he Is out of pocket at least
half of his salary. and there were no
treats nor bar bills connected with
his expense list, either. Most offcials
fail to take vouchers for small sums
expended, which in the aggregate
have set them all back to a consid-
cradle extent. In one instance the
board and lodging alone In one of
the southern camps exceeded by more
than a dollar a day the amount al
lowed by law to cover absolute ex-
penses.
Unless there is a downward trend
in H.C.L. the next Legislature will
be called upon to hoist the expense
account allowance of the travelling
Officials.

TWENTY-N|NE YEARS
PROSPECTING HERE

With a record of tw%enty-nine years
of prospecting in this vicinity, w. M.
Miller considers himself entitled to
ave title of "Old-timer." For eight
years last past he has been working
on his Fido mine, nine miles north
west from Mill City.
After several years of absence from
winnemucca he dropped into The
Silver State Office yesterday, looking
for the late Ed Harroun, former pub
Usher. He wanted to tell Ed about a
new strike he has just uncovered,
because Ed was a good man % get
pointers from"
The strike mentioned is the result
of Miller's last eight years of labor on
his Ffdo mine and he said yesterday II
consists of three lodges running 10O0
feet across a small hill. 1t is a lead
silver proposition and he has average
assays, he says, of $2S-$30 the full
length.
Hank Cole, mining man of Utah,
has recently been out to see Miller's
Fido and expressed himself to Miller
as follows: II have travelled thou
sands of miles in quest of mines, but
never before did l see anything as
good as the Fido."
Miller started on his return trip to
the mine last night.

last Thursday night in which three
buildings were destroyed. The blaze
started in a shack occupied by two
Finn bachelors. Before going TO a
show they decided to have a warm
house when they returned, and filled
the stove with wood. The result was
that they had a warm home, but IL
was too hot to enter, so they had to
stay on the outside and look in. The
contents of the buildings were saved
by %neighbors. Two of the places were
owned by F. H. Cove and one by H. H.

Bird Welcome on Board shIp.

Weary of wing and starved. a tiny linnet alighted aboard the four-mast- ed schooner Sophie Christensen 1000 miles from San Francisco, according to Capt. Bob McCarron.
 A tramp steamer was hull down on the horizon when the linnet reached the schooner, and one of the theories as to its long flight was that the bird had been a pet on the vessel and yearning for land, had sought to fly to the far-away shore.
 Aboard the schooner is a canary and, as though by instinct, the llnnet flew to the cage of the canary, perchtng precariously while the schooner heaved and tossed. Captain McCarron opened the door of the cage and the linnet soon recovered. The canary welcomed the Iinnet and they are now chums.

"CARAVAN KITCHENS" TO STAY
Introduced as Wartime Measure In England, They Have Demonstrated
 Their Usefulness.

One Of the most successful wartime experiments has been the caravan kitchen, says a London (Eng.) dis patch.
 Owing to the fact that so many mothers had to leave their families of young children to fend for themselves while they went out to work to make ends meet, Miss Horsborough con ceived the idea of catering to the needs of these children by means of a caravan kitchen.
 Assisted by three or four other wom- en, she paraded the poorer quarters of London, cooking en route all kinds Of toothsome and nourishing dishes. The hddies came running out with their plates at the blowing of q tin, trumpet. and were served with piping hot and appetizing dinner in return for a trif1ing sum of money, which had been left with them for th1s purpose by mother.
 The fame of the caravan kitchen soon spread abroad, and within a short space of time was paying its way, s. GOO dinners fl week being served in one district alone.
 So successful has been this travel ing caterer it is likely the work will be continued on q larger scale, and be- come a permanent institution, instead of a wartime measure.

I saw her cIasping fingers convul- sively grip the rail, and, even at that distance, marked a sudden flame of color in her checks. That was all her message to me, yet quite enough. Al though we had never spoken, although our names were yet unknown, I was no criminal to her mind, no unrecOg- nized prisoner beneath contempt, but . human being in whom she already felt a personal interest, and to whom she extended thought and sym pathy. I continued entirely ignorant of the identity of the young woman. She remained in my memory, in my thoughts nameless, a dream rather than a reality. I did learn that the gay gallant was q wealthy Spaniard, supposedly of high birth, by name Sanchez, and at one time in the naval service, and likewise ascertained that the rotund planter was q certain Roger Fairfax of Saint Mary's in Maryland, homeward bound after a successful sale of his t0hGcCo crop In London. It was during h.a visit to the great city that he had met Sanchez, and his praise of the colonies had induced the latter to essay a voyage in his com pany to America. But strange enough no one so much as mentioned the girl in connection with either man.
