from San Francisco and Selby, Cali
fornia. where he has been on bust
ness trip in the interests of the leas-
ers on the Kramer property at Iron

HAS PLAN TO GET
MORE FOR WOOLS

method whereby 1t may be found
possible for woolgrowers to realize in
the neighborhood of thirty cents a
pound for their product has been in
yestigated by Joe Wilson, county
agent for the Humboldt County Farm
Bureau, and may be known under va
rious names. including the "wool-to-
cloth" plan.
Wilson has secured addresses of
several woolen mills which will con-
vert the raw wool into cloth at 81 25
per yard. 1t requires approximately
three and one-third yards of cloth to
make a suit, and even at the price of
1915 to $340 per yard, the price
which will be charged the consumer,
an all wool suit, including tailoring.
may be purchased at prices ranging
from $36 to $40. As these suits will
be made of all virgin wool, they will
be far superior to the ordinary suit
purchased at 2 greater price and con-
tanning large percentage of shoddy
Some of the cheaper grades will be
made into blankets.
Several merchants who have been
interviewed here think well of the
plan and have agreed that they will
act as representatives of the wool
growers in disposing of the cloth and
suits.
According to Wilson, a number of
prominent wool growers In this sec
tion may sign over portion OF their
wool crop to some woolen mill for the
purpose of disposing of 1t according
to the plan above mentioned. Several
Montana wool growers who are al
ready following the plan are dispos-
ing of about 500 suits per week, be
sides a considerable quantity of cloth
He states that he will be glad to ge
in touch with any woolgrower who de-
sires to secure better price for hi
wool than that now being paid by
wool buyers and that only a small
financial outlay will be required OF
the grower so consigning his wool.
Since the price being realized in abou
half the amount Wilson believes he
can secure for wool, he believes this
plan should appeal to many in the
sheep business.

CONFERENCE HELD
FOR BETTER RANGE
ESPECIAL coRREsroNDEscEl


PARADISE VALLEY. May 4.-Su-
peryisor c. f. Favre of Elko is here
for a few days. looking over this di-
vision of the Humboldt forest The
purpose of his visit Is in connection
with the building of nine-mile fence
across the Santa Rosa range at the
Indian Creek summit. The fence will
connect with the permanent farm
fences on either side of the mountains
and will protect the closed area of the
forest against trespassing cattle. II
will do away with the range riders
who were employed for this purpose.
At a meeting of the forest permit
tees SATURDAY. night the supervisor
spoke of tie aims of the forest Off
cials to improve rang. conditions of
this forest and the waterIhed in the
head of Paradise Valley. To accom-
plish this object the nup1ber of sheep
grazing on the forest bad been stead
lily reduced during zen years past
from 100000 head to less than 10000
head The number Of other grazing
stock had also been reduced. but still
the range conditions did not improve
satisfactorily. Forest officials sent
here to investigate had stated that
only by complete resN could depleted
areas of the forest be restored, and
this led up to the order closing por-
tion.3 of the reserve to grazing. AL
though this had met with objection
the results obtained had more than
justified the action taken. With all
the stock off for two years more, this
portion of the range would approach
somewhere near what 1t should be.
He said the Elko office had obtained
a fund of about $1,000, originally in
tended for study of Aspen growth in
Utah, and had succeeded in transfer
ring it for a similar use on the Santa
Rosa division of the Humboldt forest
and the money is now available to buy
wire and staples to fence the north
boundary of the present restricted
area. The supervisors talk was much
appreciated and permittees at once
voted to take advantage of the propo-
sition and made preliminary arrange
ments to start the fencing at an early
date.

OFFICER JACK DAVIS
RESIGNS POSITION

AS result Of the special meeting
OF the city council last night, called
Tor the purpose of considering the
case CT Jack Davis, night watchman
suspended from duty several days ago
on account Of charges of drunken
ness preferrad by Chief of Police
Lamb. an opportunity was given to
Davis to resign and he accepted the
opportunity.
When called upon for a statement
IN regard to his actions upon the
night OF the disorder. Davis stated
That he had been or the track of evi-
denee concerning the sale of liquor,
and that In order to gain this evidence
he had taken drinks at the Green
House in the restricted district. the
house being run by Toots Neil and
Alario Arranguena; that after leay-
Ing there he had gone to the Winnie
mucca hotel. where he had secured
evidence in like manner and had ac-
cepted a twenty dollar gold piece,
which money had been handed to him
as bribe money, but which he stated
he had accepted as evidence. He said
that on numerous occasions he had
given information to Chief of Police
Lamb and Sheriff Brady concerning
violations of law and on each occa-
sion had been informed the evidence
was insufficient to secure a search
warrant or conviction.
Chief Of Police Lamb stated that
he had run across Davis on the street
that night about one-thirty and that
he found him In drunken condition.
Upon asking Davis what was the mat
ter, Davis had told him that he had
been out getting evidence and that 1t
had made him sick. Lamb had been
out in the country on a strenuous
trip and as he was tired and. as he
said, disgusted. he turned Davis over
to Sheriff Brady, who happened along
about that time.
Brady corroborated Lambs evidence
and said that about an hour later he
went to the jail and woke Davis up
and sent him out on his beat again.
After due consideration of the case
by the council 1t was agreed that
Davis be given an opportunity to re-
sign. which he did. the resignation
being accepted by the council.
The position Davis held has not
yet been filled and decision whether
or not second night watchman shall
be employed viii, be settled at the
next meeting.
