FACTORY
NOT TO Be MOVED
INQUIRY WIRED TO FALLON
ASKING If FARMERS WILL
RAISE 1000 ACRES OF SUGAR
BEETS THIS SEASON
'fARNfRSASkfD TOCOOPERATE
Query Indicates Desire to Maintain
Factory Intact and Operate 1t
Through Future Seasons

Grounds for forebodings over
the possibility of Fallon losing
its beet sugar manufacturing plant,
now idle through disinterestedne ess
Ia the industry in the minds of the
projects farmers and the owners of
the plant have been set at naught by
an inquiry received Saturday by
Former State Senator Thomas Dolf
from the Utah owners asking about
the possibilities of beet raising in
this valley this season. Mr.. Dolf
was invested with the responsibility
that goes with saying whether
1000 acres of beets can be planted
here this year, the lateness of the
season and the shortage in farm
labor both being factors that would
operate against the production of a
tonnage of beets that would make
factory operation profitable this
year. Farmers who have been ap-
preached on the subject have Tended
encouragement without exception
and had the move been attempted
several weeks earlier there is no
doubt in understanding minds but
that it would have succeeded in
round measure.
The telegram interrogating Mr.
Dolf offers a fiat rate of SIS per ton
for sugar beets delivered at the mill
this fall with an additional advance
of one dollar per ton for beets for
each cent per pound sugar advances
in price over the contemplated IL
cent price for the 1920 production of
beet sugar.
The real significance carried by
the message dispatched by the Utah
owners has to do with intent and it
is apparent that the idea is enter
tanned of operating the Fallon fac
tory as a permanent enterprise, If
not this year, then in succeeding
years, and il the present prices for
beets are maintained throughout the
future 1t Is generally deemed GER
tain that beet sugar manufacture
will be revived as a Nevada indus
try.

SPLENDID ST. CLAIR RANCH
SOLD TO ALLEN BROTHERS

One of the largest ranch deals
concluded here in recent times was
closed this week when s. e. and Ell
bert Allen bought 240 acres of very
choice farming land from A.A. Towle
for consideration said to be in the
neighborhood of $4,000. The tract
is largely In cultivation 80 acres be-
ing in fine stand of alfalfa and 90
acres in wheat.
1t was formerly part of the hold
ing known as the Thomas Toomey
place. Ebert Allen recently sold
his farm in the Soda Lake district
and his recent purchase means that
he is again fastened to the soil OF
this project Together with his
brother Earl he will conduct ths
property purchased as a farming anc
stock raising enterprise.

SCHOOL ELECTION FAILED
TO AROUSE ANY INTEREST

Despite the fact that consolidated
school district "B" counts more than
1000 voting noses. but seven public
spirited folks showed up at the
school election held in this city Mon
day for the election of a full board
of directors to serve the district
throughout the next two and four
years, one director being for the
long term and two the short. Three
of the seven votes cast were placed
in the ballot box by the members OF
the school election board, Deputy
State Superintendent Chauncey w.
Smith voted one and three others
appeared to exercise their voting
prerogative. Withal rather a sad
commentary on the public spirit OF
the school patrons of this great and
growing school district.

COUNTY PHONE EXCHANGE
IS A VERY BUSY PLACE

Few people realize the magnitude
of the business that is carried on at
the county's telephone exchange in
this city, where more than 5000
calls are answered every "a hours.
Allowing ten words for the CEN
tral operator answering the call,
which is said by Manager Korn to
be a conservative estimate of the
necessary conversation to answer a
single call, 1t is seen that $4,000
words are spoken daily at the cen
tral station. Two girls work on the
daily shift and one throughout the
night. We wonder if there are very
many of the women folks of the
town who can thus indulge vocables
and not lose their temper any more
frequently than happens in the cases
of the county's employees.
Not only do these young women
transact this vast press of business
but they also put through something
like so long distance calls every day
to points outside of Churchill coun-
ty.
Manager Korn of the County s
telephone system, is planning exten-
sive improvements to the service un-
der the direction of the county COM
missioners and this season will see
many of them put into effect.

JAPANESE HERE FROM COAST
PLANNING TO RAISE RICE

Several Sacramento valley Japa-
nese have been going over the lands
OF the Newlands project this week
investigating the possibilities pre-
sented here for raising rice, cereal
the production of which has come to
be leading industry in the lowland
districts of the Sacramento valley
II is said that the Japs are anxious
to get control of 5000 acres or more
of the irrigated lands of this project
and so certain are they that rice can
be grown here successfully that they
propose to waive experimentation
They have been moved to this con-
clusion by the data obtainable on the
length of the average growing seas
on here. the character of the soils
and the amplitude of the water sup
ply.

BUILDINGS TO COST S50O,OOO UNDER
WAY OR PROJECTED 50 FAR THIS YEAY
Falon is Rapidly Forging Ahead in Growth Through the
Concerted Efforts of Its Progressive
Citizenship

Fallon's building operations for
the present year have already taken
shape to a degree that warrants the
statement that this city will rank
second only to Reno of the states
municipalities in material advances
made during the twelve-month peri
cd. Projects already under way or
announced for the immediate future
have to do with buildings the sggre-
gate cost of which will approximate
half a million dollars. Never be-
fore in the towns history has conf
dence in the future been so general
or has there been SO keen a desire to
serve manifest needs. The utilitari-
an is to be served despite the exist
ing high prices of building materials,
urgency taking rank over the pos
sible contingencies of the future. Ad-
mittedly shortage exists here of
both residence and business struc-
lures. Those familiar with the stu
alton aver that SO new homes would
be taken if available and at least a
dozen additional business places are
needed to serve demands already put
forward. Building operations un-
der way or In contemplation will go
long way toward filling the exist
ing void.
Fallon's main street already
shows marked improvement for this
year and with the completion of the
enumerated enterprises given here
with will present substantially and
architectural features that will make
it far famed for nowhere within Ne
vada outside of Reno will enter
prise and confidence be so fully ex-
emplified, attesting that IT years of
steady growth is to be followed by 9
season of advancement which is
rarely matched in any community of
1900 population.
Farming is the prime industry
back of this city and the oil, mining
and stock industries are rapidly
growing in the volume contributed to
the general prosperity of the COM
munity. The Newlands project, of
which Fallon is the center without
contemporaries, produced a 100000
ton alfalfa crop last year which
could not have returned less than
$1.500,O00 to the 1920 community
trade balance. which sum is inde-
pendent of the revenues from other
forms of agriculture characterizing
farming effort for the season of
1919. From out of this volume of

"Nothing Too Good For My Wife
And Me to Say About Tanlac"
States r. r. Man.

mo, sir, l wasn't much surprised"
said Thomas V. Murphy,a well known
citizen of Topeka, Kansas, when |
got on the scales the other day and
found l had gained thirty-ive pounds
in weight, for l have been eating like
a wolf and picking up right a long
ever since l finished taking my first
bottle of Tanlac."
Mr.. Murphy resides at GIG Monroe
street, Topeka, and has been weight
clerk for the Rock Island railroad for
the past eighteen years. Continuing
his statement regarding Tanlac Mr..
Murphy said:
about three years ago l was taken
down with a spell of pneumonia that
came near costing me my life. After
getting up, my stomach, which had
been in bad shape for years troubled
ME more than ever and my appetite
was entirely gone. | seemed to he
unable to digest anything, and what
little l did eat would sour, causing
gas, intense pains, shortness Of
breath and seem to do me more harm
than good. l was badly constipated,
had raging headaches and felt absol-
utely tired out all the time.
After per~sistently taking medi-
cines, doing everything possible and
not getting anything to correct my
troubles and build me up so | could
work, / became very uneasy ,as it
looked like my case was beyond the
reach of medicines. l had been read
ing about Tanlac and was willing to
try anything, so l bought a bottle,
Well, it helped me just like Others
said it did them-right from the
start. l had not finished my first bot
tie before l began to want something
to eat and in a few days l could tell
l was getting stronger and taking or
weight. l am now in better shape
physically than l was even for years
before I had pneumonia, for my
stomach never bothers me any more
and I am feeling simply fine in every
way. My wife has also taken Tanlat
and it has built her up just like it die
me. There is nothing too good fol
either of us to say for Tanlac and
am glad to make a statement thai
