Official Report on Steptoe
Valley Water Resources.

u. S. Government Suucy
Mr.. Chairman, Gentlemen:

Mr.. Chairman, Gentlemen:
The reclamation of land for agri-
culture within the Great Basin is de-
pendent mainly upon the possibility
of underground waters which can be
recovered and their recovery depends
largely upon the geological conditions
of the lands to be reclaimed. The
possibilities of utilization of under
ground water for irrigation in Step
toe valley was Investigated by the
United States Geological Survey In
1917-1S and the results OF the inves-
tigation showed considerable prom

SteptOe valley Is a typical valley
of the big basin type and occupies
a portion of the structural trough be-
tween north trending basin ranges:
that portion of the trough lying be-
tween Bullwhacker pass and point
near Currie Is called Steptoe valley.
The catchment basin or the area
which contributes to the ground wa
ter of Steptoe valley comprises ap-
proxtmately 1900 square miles. of
which 8Ss square miles are mountain
area and about 912 square miles are
valley floor.
The mountain area furnishes range
for a large amount of stock during
the summer months and as whole
is mainly covered with a nutritious
grass while the valley floor, typical
of the deepest valleys. supports
chiefly the desert sage plants. The
mountains surrounding Steptoe val

Overs This Morning

Members of the University Club
met last night at the club house in
Ely for the annual meeting and cleo
ton OF officers.
This annual meeting was unlike
that of any other meeting of tneclub
since its incorporation ten years ago.
The attendant who answered the same
old bell bore on the tray in front of
him concoctions made from the can
that carries the picture of the gen.
tie lady holding tea tray and
labelled Pure Cocoa. with a no.
tation praising its beneficial effects
on invalids. The yictrola in the cor
ner sang its mellow songs as ever and
the sparks from the back log In the
fire place danced out on the floor to
be pushed back by the foot of a Sc
date gentleman meditatively slipping
his cocoa
The same old legends on the walls,
donated by members long absent,
looked down on the slipping scene
with the expression of hunting dog
when he sees his master holding his
first child.
Everything would have passed first

thin PEOPLE
SHOULD TAKE
PHOSPHATE
ROthing Like Plain Bitro-phosphate
to Put on Firm, Healthy FIesh and
to Increase Strength, Vigor
and Nerve Force.

Judging from the countless preparations
and treatments which are continually be-
ing advertised for the purpose of making
thin people feshy, developing arms, neck
and bust, and replacing ugly hoIloWs and
angles by the soft curved lines of health
and beauty, there are evidently thousands
of men and women who keenly feel their
excessive thinness.
Thinness and weakness are usually due
to starved nerves. Our bodies need more
phosphate thar is contained in modern
foods. Physicians claim there is nothing
that will supply this deficiency so well as
the organic phosphate known among drug
gistS as bitro-phosphate, which IS mex
pensive and is sold by most all
under a guarantee of satisfaction or money
back. BY feeding the nerves directly ana
by supplying the body cells with the neces-
sary p~hosphoric food elements, bltro-pnos-
plate quickly produces a welcome trans
formation in the appearance; the increase
in weight frequently being astonlshlng:.,
This Increase in weight also carries with
It a general improvement in the healtn:
Nervousness sleeplessness and lack OF
energy, which nearly always omp
excessive thinness, soon disappear, gun
eyes become bright, and pale cneekS sloW
with the bloom Of perfect health.
CAUTION:- Although b-itro-phosphate
IS unsurpassed for relieving nervousness,
sleeplessness and general weakness, It
should not, owing to it's remarkable Hesh-
growing properties, be used by anyone
Who does not desire to put on flesh.

believe there is any III who cares
very much for us"
my dear Mr.. Bat" said Mrs. Bat,
"if you are going to think about it and
come to such a sad ending I would
suggest you don't think about it."
THAT'S a good idea," said Mr.. Bat,
shut sometimes sad endings are very
beautiful"
Il don't think anything is beautiful
which is sad said, Mrs. Bat.
"Ah, but there are some who do.
There are some who love a book which
makes them cry there are some who
love seeing a play or q picture which
makes them cry.
There are some who like many sad
things, because sad things are beauti-
full, and because, too. sad things are
often just sad.

Mrs. Bat.

Flat VS.. Apartment.

Considering how many people live
in that way a journalist has done a
useful thing in pointing out that, who's
ever. thinks it more digniied, and more
the proper thing" to say that he lives
in an apartment rather than in a
''1at" is making q mistake. Flat is
not a new word. It still means, after
a long period of usage, a "suite of
rooms forming a complete residences
on one floor" If the f1at-dweller pre-
fers the possibly more elegant-seeming
word apartment" he must use it in the
plural. The man who speaks of living
in an apartment says literally that
he lives in one room.

YES, THEY WERE IN THE WAR
Kaiser Might Have Remembered Being
introduced to Americans at
Chateau-Thierry.

The first American to meet the kai-
ser at Amerongen was Sergt. James
McAdams, formerly marine recruiting
officer in Cleveland.
Sergeant McAdams was attached
last December to the American en-
bassy in Paris as special courier to
the American legations in Brussels
and The Hague after serving at Chau-
teau-Thierry.
81 had a little while to loaf while in
The Hague" he said, "and since Anne
rongen is only two and a half hours
ride away, my chum and / decided to
see the kaiser's home. We met him in
the counts park. He was strolling
leisurely along in his alpenjagger
hunting suit. We saluted him and
stopped.
Are you AmericansT' he asked,
using perfect English.
"'You bet we are,' we replied.
Were you in the war? he ques-
toned further. !,
"Didn't you meet us at Chateau
Thierry?' we grinned back"

GREEN'S AUGUST FLOWER

has been a household remedy all over
the civilized world for more than half
a century for constipation, intestinal
troubles, torpid liver and the generally
depressed feeling that accompanies
such disorders. It is a most valuable
remedy for indigestion or nervous dys-
pepsia and liver trouble, bringing on
headache, coming up of food, palpita-
ton of heart, and many other symp-
toms. A few doses of August Flower
will relieve you. It is a gentle laxa-

FIGURES Never Lie.

In January, 1910, there were in the
United States 62,6S3 single men insane
and 26,047 married men insane
which shows that the crazy men stay
single. At the same time there were
37,115 single women insane and 3d.
975 married women insane-which
proves that in January, 1910, married
life made more women crazy than it
did men. And the ore you study
these figures the crazier it makes you.
