GREENHEAD CLUB TO
HOLD MEETING FRIDAY

The Greenhead club Will hold a
getAtogether meeting in the base
ment of the Depp building on Frida :
evening of this week. Scatter gun
experts will be present in great num-
bers and discuss questions In which
the club membership is interested.
An address on different topics will
be given by President M. B. John
son. The clubs head will attempt
to Justify, among other things, the
propagation of Bob White quail in
this valley with bantum hens as
mothers, 1t being his notion that the
foster mothers proposed know more
about mothering little qua'ls than
the grownups of ths species. Mr..
Johnson has also secured a consider
able amount of data on the habits of
the male Mongolian pheasant and ne
will argue that these are polygamous
and not homogeneous and he has CIV
en- Il out that he intends TO attack
the virtue of China roosters gener-
ally. He is to do this as the copn-
tvs game warden, although his OBJ
iects are not well defined, for he la
known wherever game life Is dis
cussed as a friend of eyerJ member
of the animal kingdom.

Secretary in Hands
OF Californians
Fallon Sent Delegation to State Cap
ital to Meet Secretary of the Inter-
Tor Fall

Secretary OF the Interior Fall is
now in the upper Carson valley and
is in the hands of a delegation of
leading Nevada men, including Gov
ernor Emmett d. Boyle. Project
Manager John f. Richardson and
Mayor H. A. Clark left Monday for
Carson City where they Joined the
party which is making a trip around
Lake Tahoe and inspecting the land
and water resources of the Carson
and Truckee valleys. The secretary
of the interior arrived In the state
yesterday, having been delayed In
making the trip from the Yosemite
valley in California. Efforts were
made by Fallon men to have him
visit this city before proceeding to
the national capital but up to this
morning nothing was learned of the
possibility of the change being made
in his itinerary.
Project farmers and business in
terests are indulging wonderment
that the secretary's itinerary should
not include the Newlands project
where Uncle Sam has made a seven
million dollar investment and plans
to make additional heavy money
outlays. And the suspicion exists
that the secretary may still be in the
hands of Californians, even though
he is now in the state of Nevada.

REX THEATER HEADQUARTERS
SWIMMING POOL PARTIsANs

Manager Jack Ross, of the Rex
theater has trained a cast which will
execute some very clever stunts for
the benefit of those who come for
ward Saturday evening. The regu-
lar motion picture program will be
given. including the production
made In Heaven" featuring Tom
Moore.
Mr. Ross win fulfill the role of
the black face comedian; Al Felix,
the tough guy; Edgar Maupin, ,Nthe
slicker; and Fred Saunders is to be
callow youth of the sissy type,
while Miss Gladys Hursh will typify
the pretty little miss of business
affairs.
The sketch is an exceedingly cley-
er one, mirth provoking and differ
ent from anything ever seen in Fal-
Ion and the length of the program
will preclude the giving of but one
show on Saturday evening.
Ted Blackwood will also be on
the program for the evening and his
splendid baritone voice. popular with
all local people, will be devoted TO
the cause of the children on this
occasion.

Hotel Proprietors
Must 90 to Jail
States supreme Court Judgment In
Case of G. Cecchettini and
A. Matteucci

Nevada's state supreme court af-
firmed the order and judgment In
the case of G. Cecchettini and A.
Matteucei who were convicted in the
Churchill county district court on Ju-
ly 80, 1920. for an alleged violation
of the prohibition law. The raid
against the Churchill hotel. conduct
ed at that time by the defendants,
occurred on the night of December
l3, 1919. Following conviction the
defendants have enjoyed their lib
egty, Cecchettini having furnished
bail in the sum of s2500 and Mat
teucci in the sum of $4,000 The
first named is residing in this city
while Matteucci is said to be a res
ident of Sacramento. Following the
receipt of the remittiteur each man
Will be required to pay the fine and
jail sentence, Judge Hart having
fixed two-month Jail sentence and
a $500 cash fine as punishment for
each of the defendants
The decision of the state supreme
court was rendered on Saturday,
Aug 18th, five days after the case
was argued by District Attorney Geo.
J. Kenny, representing the state, and
Judge Pat McCarran, represen ting
the defendants. A point was raised
by Mr.. Kenny that cases of the kind
might be postponed and made inter-
minable without the invocation of q
rule to govern and In a very clean
cut and logical resume of this par
tieular liquor case the supreme court
ruled without dissent that the
counsel for the appellants having
failed to file briefs on behalf of the
appellants within the time allowed
by the court the states contention
should be sustained and judgment
affirmed"
Pete Mori and Ernest Dondero are
bondsmen for Matteucci and he has
been notified to present himself to
the Churchill county authorities to
comply with the mandate of District
Judge T. C. Hart.
There is considerable satisfaction
in the local mind over the prompt
and logical manner In which this
case was handled by the states high
est tribunal Chief Justice Saunders
and Associate Justices Ducker and
Coleman have, by their ruling. es-
tablished a precedent which it is
admitted by attorneys who have dis
cussed the matter, will govern In all
cases OF the kind which may be tried
in the Nevada courts throughout
future times.

CALIFORNIA ASSOCIATION
SHOWS COOPERATIVE SPIRIT

Mr.. Crowther of the northern Cal
fornia Alfalfa Growers Association
spent a few days on the project re-
Gently, making a survey of the alfal-
ia hay situation. He came to the
project prepared to make an offer of
$3.50 per ton for hay on track at
Fallon This hay would be included
with a shipment of California hay to
New York City. Mr.. Crowther said
that his association could handle 500
to 1000 tons from this place of sec
ond crop hay of last year or this year
at the above price provided a ship
ment could be made at very early
date. According to Mr.. Crowther
this hay will be handled on the same
basis as the California Association
hay and according to his statement
his association is endeavoring to re-
lieve the eongested hay market of
California and Nevada by exporting
several boat loads to Eastern points
1t is expected that this expectation
of hay may strengthen the market,
which last week had a decline of 50
per ton according to the California
Association representative.
Up to the time Mr.. Crowther left
the project only one hay grower
made definite arrangements to sell
through the California Association.
The offer is still open at this price
for few days, until sufficient hay
is secured for the first boat
The big surplus of hay in this dis
trict is being used continually by the
coast hay commission men to bear
down the price of California hay.
This is given as reason for the
California association desiring 10
tone up the local market by dispos-
ing of some of the surplus hay in this
valley. This is the first definite pro-
position that hos come from the Cal
ifornia association and it is hoped
that it may be the forerunner of
further cooperation.

HOW THE MIGHTY HAVE
FALLEN IN DENVER'S CASE

Denver s. Dickerson, once the
chief executive of the great Nevada
sovereign state, and later a federal
office holder under the Wilson ad-
minlstration, has become member
of the Tex Rlckard prize fighting
staff in New York. Dickerson was
an outstanding figure at the John
son-Jeffries fiaseo in Reno with his
plug hat, polished cane and gnber-
Material air. and a friendship be-
tween himself and the bunco man is
presumed to have started there only
to end fortunately for Dickerson
when cast high and dry out of the
political game. Denver Is not to as
sumo a prize fighting role, but will
probably be merely "come-on" man
In pugdom.

A TRIP TO MOUNT VERNON BY
WELL KNOWN FALLON MAN

To the Fallon Standard:
Since writing you from Missouri
several weeks ago we have been on
the go so continuously that 1t was
most impossible to write again. How
ever, | hope that these few lines will
not now go amiss. We have just re-
turned from Mount Vernon, one of
the few truly great spots in America,
and where every true American
hopes to go sometime In his life.
For is 1t not here that the greatest
of all Americans is laid to rest? Is
not this the place where the
Father of his Country" lived, loved,
honored and died? Where he trusted
while a child, scampered over the
beautiful Virginia hills while small
boy and led in the chase or In the
crude Indian warfare while he, was
yet a youth? Yes, 1t Is the place
where he did all these things and
a thousand more, and a days visit
will impress the fact very vividly
upon the mind that General Wash
ington, whether as a child, a youth
or a man did the thing which he
attempted we'll. There is that mark
of superiority plainly visible upon
much of the work accomplished at
Mt. Vernon some 175 years ago. The
variety and system displayed in the
setting of the lawn trees; the order
and arrangement of the buildings of
w II fah thnpa a. l.,
of the grounds and roads through
the estate; all these and more testify
to that mark of wonderful ability
which made General George Wash
ington a superior man of his or any
other time.
To tramp the fields of Mt Vernon
and to view the sacred tomb of
Washington brings to mind very
viyidly those lines by Knox which
Lincoln loved so well to repeat:
They died oh they died and the
things that are now,
That Walk on the turf that lies over
their brow,
And make of their dwelling a trans
lent abode,
Meet the things that they met on
their pilgrimage road.
Yea hope and dependency, pleasure
and pain
Are mingled together like sunshine
and rain,
And the smile and the tear and the
song and the dirge.
Still follow each other like surge
upon surge.
'Tis the wink of an eye, It's the
draught of a breath,
From the blossom of health to the
paleness of death,
From the gilded salon to the bier
and the shsoud,
oh why should the spirit of mortal
be proud.

Lowest Testing
Hnnln

Calling the low test herds aver
age as 100, the high test herds is
107-plns, or seven per cent peter
than the low. Not much, but per
cent is often the difference between
success and failure.
Now the point is that if we as
sumo, not unreasonably, that the
high test herds were predominently
Jersey, and the low test ones pre-
dominently Holstein, there is no rea-
son for the popularity of the Hol-
stein COW over the smaller breeds
from the standpoint of production,
which is the final test. | think 1t
also safe assumption that the low
test herds were the highest feed con-
sumers. A well grown Jersey should
weigh 1000 lbs. and a we'll grown
Holstein 1900 lbs, both larger than
the average breeds we see here
abouts. The maintenance cost of
1900 Id. COW averages SO per cent
greater than the maintenance of
1000 lb. COW. We may allow for
mixtures in the herds of both low
and high test herds and guess the
size of the lowest COWS at 100 lbs.
and the high test cows at 1000,
which again gives us an advantage
of 10 per cent in feed consumption,
at least that part consumed for
maintenance only.
My purpose in this little article is
to get us to looking well to what we
may have right here at hand. /
have soon Jersoy bulls that might
bring $4,000 in the hands of a skill
full salesman-breeder, which no one
hereabouts would pay as much for,
as they would bring in bologna at
Fallon prices. Perhaps the people
here are not at fault, as money can
be secured to put hay into the stack,
but none to get IL out of the stack
Hay has no value while 1t remains
in the stack except as a windbreak.
Credit has been secured to get cows
that have been given expensive rail-
road rides, but no credit available to
buy your neighbors' cows or heifers,
no matter how valuable they may be-
Cows are not improved by being
shipped around. One might gather
the idea that the only thing needed
here is to get something to "eat up
the hay" If that is the case 1t looks
to me as though the 3 per cent COW
is most deservingly popular.
Please don't think that is a knock
for anybody's COW or breed.

Officials
Sign Road Contract
To Perform Substantial Amount of
Work on Highways In This
County

The contract proposed recently by
the good roads enthusiasts of this
county and the state highway
authorities was received by County
Clerk C. E. Howard yesterday. The
document is officially signed by the
state authorities. a formality that
was completed by the county com
missioners today. This was pre-
requisite to the issuing of $4,000
In road bonds by the executive heads
of this county. 1t is understood that
the bonds will be prepared and of.
fered for sale at an early date.
The contract specifies that this
county will participate in the finish
ing of the Lincoln highway between
Salt Wells and Sand Springs to the
amount of the proposed bond issue.
The estimated cost of the improve
ment is $83,41S. Should the sum be
less Churchill county is to be rebat-
ed. Another provision of the con-
tract calls for the completion of the
road building project from Grimes
ranch to Salt Wells, the estimated
cost of which would be about $780,
600, no part of which will fall upon
the taxpayers of this county, the ex-
pense to be met from the state, gov
ernment, and Lincoln Highway
funds. Taxpayers will also be in
terested in knowing that another
premise of the contract now in effect
calls for the immediate commence
ment of work on the projected state
highway that will connect Leeteville
with Hazen and thus give Fallon a
highway to the main line of the rail-
way. One of the early projects pro-
posed by the state authorities Is
hard surfaced highway between
Reno and Hazen.
