Endeavoring to show that the in
structions were justified by the pro-
British attitude of Admiral Sims, Sena-
tor Pittman directed his attention to q
letter Sims had written Secretary Dan
iels November IS, 1917, from Lon
don, suggesting the advisability of
using good proportion of the national
army as labor in the American ship
yards, owing to the great need of ton
mage, instead of sending it to France.
Pittman also submitted the copy of
a letter, taken from Admiral Sims's file
which he had sent to Admiral Sir Lewis
Bayly, of the British navy, on January
"a, 1918, showing Sims to have been
a strong advocate of the brigading of
American troops with the British, in
stead of depending on the development
of separate American army.
Justifying this, the witness called at

Of brigading was precisely what was
done, and it made possible the winning
Of the war"

ALFALFA WEEv|L IS
IN NEVADA FIELDS

Measures to prevent the spread of
alfalfa weevil into Nevada are being
taken by the United States Bureau Of
Entomology at the Salt Lake agri-
cultural station, X. M. Pack, of the
bureau, said last night, says the Ely
Times. Mr.. Pack is here to find the
outskirts of the western limit to
where the weevils have spread SO far.
Previously 1t was not known how
far west of Skull valley. Utah, the In
sects had spread, and Mr.. Pack was
sent out on an expedition to trace
weevils at Fish Springs, Trout Creek,
Callao and Ibapah in Utah, and across
the line In Nevada he found the pests
in the alfalfa at Tippett and vicinity.
He has found more further west, and
the injury done to the crops at Tip
petit is not noticeable yet, he said.
However, while their depredations
are not serious now in Nevada, they
are coming this way, Mr.. Pack assert
ed. He has swept fields at Schell-
bourne, McGill and near Ely. but no
trace of the insects have been found
south of Tippett. From here he will
go southeast as far as Milford, Utah.
The bureau has considerable diff
Guilty in getting the alfalfa growers to
spray against the weevils. Mr.. Pack
asserted. Arsenate of lead is used in
spraying, and some growers contend
that there is danger of poisoning
stock by feeding them hay that has
been sprayed with the chemical. Mr..
Pack said that this contention is
wrong. as experiments proved that a
horse would have to eat a ton Of hay
to get enough arsenic to do any harm.
State and Government chemists after
making analytical tests found that
hay sprayed with the solution con-
tanned less arsenic than the drinking
water anywhere in the Great Basin
region.
The cost of spraying is much less
than brushing the fields. Mr.. Pack
said 1000 acres were sprayed in Utah
last year with very satisfactory re-
suits at a cost of $1.05 to those who
owned their own machines. and s1.75
for custom spraying. Some fields
were entirely eaten up by the weevils.
One spraying season is effective. The
larvae do greater harm than the ma
tured weevils. he said.
The alfalfa crops in Utah and Ne
vada are in general very good this
season. and are better than last year.
The frosts have done a little harm in
northern Nevada and Utah, but have
not retarded the growth Of the hay to
any great extent.

LIVESTOCK PRODUCT
LESS THAN USUAL

Vernon Metcalf, secretary Of the
Nevada Livestock Association. has re-
turned from a trip to the eastern part
Of the State, says the Reno Journal,
where he made a survey of the live
stock industry. Lambs will only run
from sixty 10 sixty-five per cent of
the normal production. according to
his statement, owing to the cold spell
early in the lambing season. which
was responsible for the death of q
great many.
The Spring has been rather poor
for the sheepmen, but the outlook for
the Summer Is promising. The ranges
are in excellent condition and more
water is available than for the past
several years. The condition OF the
Summer range will now depend upon
the amount Of rain that falls.
The livestock market is at present
poor, the bottom having dropped out
of the prices. On this account many
of the ranchers are In hard financial
straits. The banks are working to
relieve this condition as much as is
possible.
Wool clips from all W. the State
were exceedingly light this year. av-
eraging only from n to n and a
half pounds for a fleece. Only one
instance is known where the feeces
were up to normal weight. This was
in a pool in the Ely district. Nearly
100000 pounds Of the wool was sold
at a price averaging TN cents per
pound. AS far as is known this is
the record price received for wool in
Nevada this year. All of the clips
have been sold with the exception of
a few small mes.
Owing to the light clip, the esti-
mated production of 100000
pounds of wool for this State this
| year, was not realized. The produc-
| ton amounted to approximately s.
100000 pounds. More sheep were
wintered in Nevada this year from
Idaho and Utah than usual.
Frosts in the eastern part OF the
State in the past few days have only
caused little damage, except to the
fruit trees. The range is practically
u~ninjured by the heavy frost.

Cattlemen Face Losses Because Of
Tight Money and Drop I'm Beef
Price

Ogden, Utah, June 6.-The sudden
tightening of the money market in
the United States and drop In the
price Of beef are affecting the live
stock market of California. according
to word brought into Ogden yester-
day by cattlemen rushing their stock
to the Eastern markets.
Deagan brothers of Paso Robes
had a t~rainload of 1900 stocker steers
in Ogden yards yesterday afternoon
for feeding. Three more trains of
equal number will follow immediate
ly, according to Louis Deagan. who
was here with the first trainload. He
is said to have told men at the stock
yards that the way the market stands
now they stand to lose about $780,
900 on the four trainloads of cattle.
He said that in many parts of Califor-
mia the cattlemen who had paid de-
posits upon cattle have forfeited the
money rather than take the cattle to
the market and suffer further losses.
The past month has seen the heav-
lest shipment of California lambs to
the Eastern markets through the Og-
den Union stockyards in fifteen Years.
The number of lambs fed here was
$4,000 head.
