ITO the end that there may be
more stringent enforcement Of the
prohibition law and more efficient
and drastic measures adopted for the
suppression of the traffic in intoxi-
eating liquors we earnestly urge the
various city councils and boards of
county commissioners to carefully
and painstakingly scrutinize the ap-
plication of all persons applying for
| licenses to conduct so-called soft
drink parlors,' and to be most dis
eliminating in granting said licenses.
We further recommend that whenev-
er a proprietor, or any Of his en-
ployes, is convicted in court Of
competent jurisdiction of any offense
against the national prohibition act
that his license be forthwith revoked
and he be debarred from thereafter
obtaining such license in any city or
county in the state of Nevada"

TWO NEW BANKS
FOR LAS VEGAS

Two new banks are now being
planned for Las Vegas. One will
probably be known as the Second
State Bank and the other probably
will be known as the First National
Bank.
The national bank is being pro-
NOTED by local men. One of the lead
ing hotel men of Las Vegas is the
prime factor in the founding of this
institution, Application for permit
to start a national bank has been
filed in Washington and telegraphic
advices to the Clark County Review
from New York City state that the
Chase National Bank is seeking to
become the New York correspondent
of the First National Bank of Las
Vegas.
The Chase National Bank is one
of the Oldest banks in New York and
one of the most powerful financial
institutions in the world.
The Second State Bank probably
will be started by experienced Cali
fornia bankers, aided and backed by
local men.
One of the men behind the pro-
posed Second State Bank said. THE
vision of big men is making possible
adequate and safe banking facilities
for Las Vegas. There is no greater
indication of the future growth OF
community than the establishment
of additional banking forces. Every
man who has given the matter care
full study, realizes that Las Vegas II
going ahead in leaps and bounds II
the next two years. Additional banks
are as vital as additional homes. =

FEDERAL GRAND JURY
REPORT DEPL0RES
CONDITIONS

The federal grand jury completed
it's work at Carson City last week
and made report to United States
District Judge e. S. harrington. The
grand jury had before it twenty-slx
cases and fifty-one persons were in
dicted, majority Of them being for
violation of the Volstead act. In
their report the jury "deplores the
lack of cooperation on the part OF
the county and city peace officers in
the enforcement Of the national pro-
hibition act. At this session nearly
sixty cases involving the possession,
sale and manufacture Of intoxicat-
ing liquors were considered, and it is
sad commentary upon the attitude OF
the city and county peace officers tc
say that In all of these cases only
two such officers apr cared as wit
nesses A prior grand jury had this
matter under consideration and call
ed the attention of the court to this
deplorable situation and subpoenaet
and had before it many of the peace
officers OF this state. Assurance
were then given by these gentlemel
that they would do everything w
sible to aid the officers Of the gov

law. We take the enforcement

STRIKE ORE ON MIDWAY CLAIMS:
OWNERS WILL DEVELOP PROPERTY

An interesting strike was made
this week by Mathew Hunter and f.
A. Thompson on the Midway Group,
which is situated about miles to
the east of Pioche and near the
famous Alps Mine, now being opera
ted by the Lloyd interests. AT a
depth of approximately 20 feet from
the surface, high grade gold, silver,
lead ore was encountered in the drift
shaft on the Midway claim. This
shaft was sunk on the porphyry con-
tact, and an iron vein striking ap-
proximately northeast by southwest
occurs between the quartzite and the
porphyry, which at this place is over
20 feet wide. Following this iron
vein through we'll defined fault, the
miners broke into a high grade
streak of galena and assays of the
vein indicate shipping values, with
wonderful possibilities of lateral and
I downward extension of the deposit.

large number of building utilized by
the miners in the early days. Just

SELECTING FARM
VERY IMPORTANT
Many Things to Consider That
May Have Decided Bearing
on Home and Business.
FERTILITY MOST DESIRABLE
Essential to Success Of Enterprise 10
High Quality Of Live Stock
Look TO Source and De-
pendability Of Water.

prepared By the United states Department
OF Agricultural
The wise selection of a farm il vital
10 the success and satisfaction OF farm
life. Choosing a farm often means
choosing place in which TO live and
work for lifetime. 1t is important,
of course, to decide wisely in buying for
investment, says the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, but In making
a selection for home il is dOubly
important To consider various features
that may have a decided bearing on
the farm business or that may make
the home life attractive.
Home and Business inseparabIe.
The home side of the question must
always be kept in mind, for the farm
home and the farm business are in
separable The desirable farm from a
business standpoint many times is
found undesirable if il has no social
or community advantages. On the
other hand. desirable living conditions
are of little or no advantage unless
supplemented by successful farm
business.
In selecting a farm il should be
borne in mind that it requires a farm
business of considerable size to pro
vide an income that will merely cover
maintenance charges, and that these
charges are relatively larger for small
farms than for large ones. A farm
must be of such a size as to furnish
most Of the supplies needed in the
farmers living, such as garden and
fruit, and enough income to pay the
taxes and running expenses. Unless,
however, there is a margin above these
annual maintenance charges no prog
resS can be made toward accumulat-
ing a surplus.
Another feature which the farm
seeker should see to Is that prospects
for crop yields are more than sufficient
TO balance the cost OF production.
Soils of low fertility are handicapped
some are found to be positive liability
If it is necessary to farm them. 1t is
well 10 inquire thoroughly into crop
yields. not only those that have been
obtained on the farm itself for period
of years but those realized on adjacent
farms.
Equally essential 10 the success of
the farm business is high quality of
the live stock enterprise. To handle
live stock so It will pay for feed. care
and labor is more than a mere matter

NEST EGGS OF NAPHTHALENE
Instead of Acting as Destroyers or
RepelIants Of Lice, They Are
Injurious.

Nest eggs made OF naphthalene,
claimed or suggested by manufacture
ers to be destrOyers or repellants of
lice, might be called bad eggs rather
than "lice-exterminating eggs" "lice-
killing nest eggs" and indicated
nest eggs. for they do not seem to in
convenience the lice or mites. but they
do have a bad effect on the fowls that
sit on them. In fact. the entomologists
of the United States Department Of
Agriculture who have examined and
tested these So-called eggs" Say that
they are very injurious to fowls, but
not in a single case were Trey found
effective against the parasites. Even
the nest boxes in which they were
placed remained badly infested with
mites and they were frequently oD-
served crawling over the naphthalene
eggs.
