Joe Wilson, local Farm Bureau
agent, expects to leave tomorrow for

the interests of ranchers In the Oro-
vada and Jungo sections. who are in
terested In the raising OF seed crops
for market.
Mr.. Wilson expects to take up the
matter OF seed crops with large seed
companies while on his visit there. to
determine what crops would be most
practical and for which there would
be the best market, also to determine
whether or not any of these compan-
les will give contracts for the raising
of seeds to ranchers in the above
named sections.
Ranchers in the Orovada and Jungo
districts feel that seed crops could be
raised by them to good advantage. as
the territory is practically new, and
free from weed seeds AMI destroying
insects. The high dry climate is also
another advantage whieh leads 'hem
to believe that they c,u,d make Sc. i

seeds can be raised IN great abInd-

supply of water, the territory to be
irrigated being smaller, makes the
project more enticing 10 setta!trs In

CANDY GONE, THREE
HOBOES BEING HELD

Immediately upon discovering the
theft Of fiye-pound can of candy
from his grocery store in Railroad
street this morning. Aaron Brown no.
tilted the authorities at the sheriff's
Office. and very shortly three vags
were In the county jail awaiting a
hearing on the charge of petty lar
ceny.
According to Mr.. Brown. the three
buns. who are not more than of age,
entered the place and asked for
canned goods. They carried their
coats over their arms and shortly
after leaving he discovered that one
can of candy was missing.
Chief Of Police Lamb overlook them
b. - --"'Ar tank near the Southern
Pacific depot and knew them by the
way they were putting the candy out
of sight. The can was cached under
the tank and the remainder of the
candy was dumped in a hole In the
ground.
At their preliminary hearing this
afternoon. before Justice Of the Peace
Ritchie. one OF the culprits. in uni
form. acted as spokesman for the
three. and explained that they could
not have done anything like they were
accused OF as they had merely gone
into the store to purchase food. and
that II they had stolen the candy
someone would have been bound to
have seen them. and that no one had
witnessed the alleged crime.
This defense might have gotten
across had not Richie rudely cut him
short by asserting that one OF the
three at least was guilty and that un-
less they came through with the
necessary information they would
have to take the consequences.
The men were turned over to the
chief of police and are to appear be-
fore Richie tomorrow morning at 10
o'clock for sentence.

AMAZING PRACTICE
! FOR CHINESE DEAD

Following an illness lasting more
than year, Charlie Gee, another aged
Chinaman, passed away at the Chinese
infirmary just back of Chinatown yes
terday morning.
Deceased was 65 years of age and
resident of this county for about
thirty years. He was well known
around Winnemucca, having been a
COOK by trade. spending seven years
In that capacity at the c. p. Hoskins
place when Mr.. Hoskins ran the sta
tion at Cane Springs. He has no
relatives in this country. Burial will
take place in the Chinese cemetery
across the river, and on account of
his impecunious condition, will not be
given regular funeral.
1t is said by those who have made
frequent visits to Chinatown here that
the infirmary consists of shack back
of the Josh house. where those who
become old and infirm, and who have
no money. are taken when there is no
hope of their recovery. They are
taken care of by an attendant, but
their entrance to the place means that
they will never return to the light of
this world. 1t is also said that.vigor-
Gus protests have been made by pa
tients being taken to the place, who
realized that that was the last step
before leaving for the next world.
