AimeB eBermond
Was Held Up
Bermond's Station Scene of Hold
Up Early Last Thursday
Evening

Aime Bermond. well known pro-
prietor of the station 33 miles south
east of this city. bearing his name.
was held up and robbed early last
Thursday night by two masked men
who secured total OF s21o In
money as the result of the ontlawry.
Following the occurrence Mr.. Ber-
mond walked eight miles toward
Fallon to the II. S. Brock station
where he called up Sheriff Jim
Smith who left by automobile at
once in company with Deputy NJ. D..
Johnson for the scene of the rob-
berry. Picking up Mr.. Bermond as
he was making his way home after
informing the officers of the occur
renee. they went on and made care
ful search but found nothing that
would lend a clue to the apprehen-
sion of the robbers.
Mr.. Bermond in discussing the
matter Saturday said:
II have been running a hotel and
watering place in the desert for 20
years and was never held up be-
fore. Somehow, felt intuitively
that ] was due for my first expert
ence in this direction when the Ford
car bearing the robbers came into
sight on Frenchman's fiat shortly
before dark Thursday evening. Only
one man was In sight in the car as
be drove past the station. the other

they had proceeded toward Fallon

walked to Brooks station and gave
the alarm because the telephone

with the outside world has been out

SplendidDairy
Record Made
l.. Il. Cline Tests Eight Herds and
Finds Unusual Butter
Fat Percent

The regular testing Of dairy herds
as has been done by the writer for
several years furnishes an excellent
opportunity to study the work of the
dairy herds of the valley and the
very profitable market they furnish
for alfalfa hay.
Reports of individual herds have
been made in the local papers from
time to time. These reports usual
ly have been of some of our best
herds, and while the results were
mo better than any man should
aspire to, they were not as a rule a
fair sample of what was being done
by the average dairy COW of the val
ley. A summary of the last eight
herds tested is given below. These
herds may be considered to repre-
sent an average of the herds of the
valley. The eight herds reported
here comprise sixty-one animals in
various stages of lactation. The ay-
erage production of these animals
for January and February was 1854
lbs. of butter fat per month. In ad-
dition these sixty-one animals pro-
duced S22.2 lbs. of skim milk per
animal per month. Now if we con-
slider that these animals consumed
an average of 1000 lbs. of hay each
per month. they were producing at
the rate of 67.2S pounds of butter
fat and 1644.4 pounds of skim milk
for each ton of hay consumed for
the producing animals Since in an
average herd there are only about
SO 1-3 per cent of the animals pro-
ducing at any one time, the above
figures should be reduced to $500
pounds of butter fat and 1906
pounds of skim milk for each ton of
alfalfa hay consumed by the whole
herds including dry cows.
If we consider the butter fat pro-
duced during these two months
pound we have butter fat valued at
s2S.03 and skim milk at 80 cents
per hundred pounds, valued at
1851 or total of S31.64 as the av-
erage return for each ton of hay
consumed in all the eight herds rep
resented in these tests. This pro-
duction shows a very good average
efficiency in our dairy herds as these
herds were not selected. Ii also
demonstrates the efficiency of our
alfalfa hay as dairy ration. If
the above results are carefully
studied by prospective dairymen
they will have no trouble in seeing
that all we need in the way of a
market for alfalfa hay is plenty of
good COWS.
The labor incident TO caring for a
herd of dairy cattle is something To
be considered, but there are very
few farming operations that will
pay surer or a better income for
labor expended than dairying The
growing of alfalfa hay for market
for a big demand at high prices is
about as much of gentlemans job
as any farmer could wish for, and
the inducements are so strong that
the supply soon exceeds the demand.

This includes subjects such as

mp as club activities.
An orchard sprayer has been
sent for and should be here any
day Those people wishing 10 have
their orchards sprayed can do so by
letting the county agricultural ag-
ent or Mr.. Blake know. The an
paratus should be ready for work
the first of next week. Let's give
the orchards chance this season.
II Is the lack of spraying that causes
fruit diseases, windfalls, wormy
fruit and so forth.
Interest in the Protective Live
Stock Association is increasing each
day and the separate community
centers are passing IL on at their
regular monthly meetings. This
matter should be put through now
and some definite action taken.
Many farmers have already signi-
fled their intention to join. 1t will
mean that every one who wants to
see this go. should come forward
