BANKS FOR THRIFTY
SCHOOL CHILDREN

Nevada will receive 10000 real
American Defensive Grenades" from
which the charge have been removed
and coin slot substituted, thus max
ing unique and serviceable savings
banks for school children, according
to wirer advices from the Treasury
Department to Fred L. White, State,
War Savings Director.
These grenades," commented Mr..
White" represents Americas inn
provement over the British Mills
Bomb. They are real grenades, of
which 100000 were ready for ship
ment when the armistice was signed.
They were first ordered sold for junk,
but the treasury heads realizing their
immense souvenir and sentimental
value, decided instead to make them
over into savings banks for American
school children.
Each Nevada boy or girl who
possesses War Savings Stamp bot
with money earned or saved during
the summer vacation will be entitled
to receive one of these banks free of
charge. The teachers in all cases will
judge between the pupils and the
banks will be allotted according to the
lists sent either to state headquarters
or to county chairmen.
The development of the hand gren-
ada is interesting in this connection
While Henry w reigned in France
picked corps of soldiers acquired the
knack of throwing loaded hand bombs
filled with high explosives, and from
knack the name of grenade throwers'
or ''grenadiers" was given them.
In, the Napoleonic Wars the gren-
ade fell into disuse. Only to be, re-
vived at the Siege of Port Arthur in
1904. after which every army in the
world began to experiment with new
forms of bombs and explosives.
The most effective grenade devel-
oped during the war was the British
Mills Bomb. little hand grenade of
which soldier could carry more than
100 and throw them from an ordinary
trench.
This Mills Bomb formed the basis
of the savings bank which this fall
will be seen in every Nevada home
where the children have learned the
first lesson of thrift-by buying War

CHA MONSTER ROAMING

showing in Fallon number of years
ago These include the ella mon
ster and a number of big snakes. AS
long as booze held sway in Nevada
the big snakes were seen frequently
BY several of Our well known resi-
dents but the four footed reptile was
presumed to have succumbed to the
the rigors of the past winters or to
have died of old age. Indubitable
evidence to the contrary, however was
produced Tuesday by r. Coglan, the
lessee of the Norton ranch, who came
to town with the ella monsters shed
skin.
Mr.. Coglan proposes to organize a
hunt Tor the monster. run him to his
lair. and then despatch him, because
he is presumed to carry enough
poison in the region of his gills to
kill a multitude. He also domes

EMPLOYMENT BUREAU

The farmers Of Carson, Smith and
Mason Valley have opened an en-
ployment bureau in Minden in the
hopes of relieving the labor shortage
for all time
During the present season the
farmers of the three valleys have been
hustling for hay hands of any and all
character. While modern machinery
has to large extent helped cut down
the demand for hay hands the short
age is complained OF in these three
sections.
This is a move along the right road
and this employment bureau can go
step futher and provide employ
ment the year around for men. The
trouble with the harvest season is that
the men are discharged following the
taking off of crops
Could they be retained the year
round much of the difficulty would
be averted.
Carson Valley has depended on
tramp hire for years. The tramp
hay hand is not as common, as there
in too much inducement offered him
elsewhere to take the annual hike to

the divers ified crops have been keep

Loss of Appetite.

AS a general rule there is nothing
serious about loss of appetite, and
if you skip meal or only eats two
meals day flor few days you will
soon have "a relish for your meals
when meal times. Bear in mind
that at least five hours should always
elapse between meals SO as to give the
food ample time to digest and the
stomach a period of rest before a
second meal is taken. Then if you
eat no more than you crave and take
a reasonble amount of outdoor exer-
else every day you will not need to
worry about your appetite. When
loss of appetite is caused by consti-
patton as is often the case, that should
be corrected at once. A dose OF

KEEP THE HOGS COOL

Every time hog gets too hot, he
pants away an appreciable portion OF
meat. And hogs get hot easily.
During the summer especial care
should be taken to have the hog quar-
ters well shaded. If no natural shade
Is available. a very good shelter may
be made OF boughs or straw placed
about four feet above the pen or wal
low. Clean water in which the hogs
can lie should always be provided

CONSIDER STACKING WHEAT

With the biggest crop OF wheat on
record about to be harvested, it is
probable that in many neighborhoods
thre shers will not be able to make
their rounds in the usual time.
If left in the shock wheat will be
damaged by every rain, even to some
extent by the dew The stacking OF
wheat has fallen into disuse in latter
wears, but it would be well the De-
partment of Agriculture says, tor the

MINES AND MINERS.

It is reported that the north
ern mining states are now talk
ing southern Arizona, and it is
expected that many new parties
will be coming into this district
this spring.
Messrs. Mcdonald, Ismond
and LeVonte, operating the
Hosey property, recently broke
into some fine copper silver ore.
They have been working entire
ly in shipping ore for some time,
and the new strike means a
great deal to, the property.
The Trench mine encountered
several rich stringers in the
cross cut from the $50 foot level.
They have 80 feet to drive be-
fore cutting their main ore body,
and encountering these string
ersgives strong evidence that
they will encounter large ore
body.

Give Mining An Even Chance.

Now that the war is over,
many restrictions on mining de-
velopment should be removed.
Owing to government orders
large producers were restricted
and many small producers sus-
pended entirely.
Restrictions were necessary in
order to win the war, and the
mining industry responded with
superb patriotism.
Thousands of skilled men and
mining engineers were taken out
of development work and sent
to the front to help win the war.
Thousands of mines suspend
ed production and development
work to meet the governments
demand for man power.
These mines suspended finan-
cial operations and closed up
their properties until after the
war and put their money into
the war.
All restrictions hindering le-
gitimate development should
now be removed and let the
work Of opening new mines go
ahead.

Fred. Smith and Charles Falk,
operating a lease on the Mowry
ground. are getting some fine
ore. They are sinking a shaft
upon the west extension of the
famous Mowry contact.
The Patagonia. Engineering
and Assay Office reports sampl-
ing the largest carload of con-
centrateS ever sampled. The
car was loaded vita IS tons of
the product of the Flux mine.
The Pierce Gardner lease is
shipping regularly. They have
installed gasoline hoist, have
a new skid rig in the shaft and
have resumed sinking. With
the increased hosting capacity
the property can now double it's
tonnage of ore for shipment.
The Hardshell mines began
grading away for the surface
plant for the new shaft which
they will sink Immediately. The
shaft was sunk about so feet by
the owner, and the present op-
Grating company cOntemplateS
sinking it to the $50 foot level.
Mr.. E. E. Bethel, general man
ager of the Washington Trading
Company, has secured an option
on the Ivanhoe property. Mr..
Bethel and parties interested ex-
pect to start work on this one
time producer within short
time. 1t will be remembered by
the "old boys" that the Ivanboe
shipped some very rich copper
silver ore in the days gone by,
and there is no reason why it
should not repeat the perform
ance. The property has an ex-
cellent equipment and the mine
is in good condition to start
work upon.-Patagonian.

lectors and their Deputies, and
at other central points, free in

ment and taxpayers in this re-
spect again this year.
