Serious Cattle Shortage
Feared,

Though the department of agrl'
culture estimated the c0untry's
sheep a total $4,000, 900, the last
census found but 100000 by
actual count. This error i'll the
departments estimate also applies
to other cattle. There are Ia, 900.
900 fewer hogs than supposed
though the department had found
100000. Herbert Myrick, a
farm expert, sites these examples
to support his contention that the
agricultural officials have been
overestimating cattle statistics for
years.
The new census shows that the
number of cattle for each 100 per.
sons in the country is one-third
less than in 1900. The sheep sup
ply is reduced nearly two'thirds
and the number of hogs is over 4O
per cent less. Meat exported last
year was 20 per cent less In bulk
than during the previous year
On the other hand imports OF
fresh meats totaled 715,OOO,OO(
pounds or nearly four times az
much as two or three years ago
There has also been a decrease O
1S per cent in the number of cat
tie slaughtered in the Unlte'
States.
Mr.. Myrick sums up the situa
, uion by declaring that the shortag
in livestock is such as to farnisl
= a meat supply averaging onl
about half as great for each per
son in the country as in forme
wears. He says "the decline du'
ing recent months in prices to pre-
ducers constitutes the graves
economic crime ever perpetrate

MASONIC MINE Is
GIVING PROMISE

Geo. A. Montrose and II. Boone,
principal owners OF the Mrytle and
Julia mine at Masonic, upon which a
rich strike was made two weeks ago
and which urged them to let a con-
tract for sinking the shaft to a depth
of fifty feet, have been further ad-
vised that the ore Is increasing In
richness. and that the ledge is widen
ing out to considerable size. Within
short distance from the surface the
ledge was but few inches wide, and
now, at depth OF twelve feet, the
body of ore is two and one-half feet
wide and carries values from SIS to
$50 per ton In free milling gold ore,
with every indication of developing in
to real mine with shipping ore.
The owners expect to visit their
property on Sunday to view the de-
velopment work being done. and are
exceedingly enthusiastic over recent
developments.

VOLUME FORTY-ONE
CARSON TO PLAY
HERE NEXT SUNDAY

The ball game scheduled for last
Sunday was played, although at times
a south wind reached the proportions
of a young cyclone, and moved real
estate with the ease of a steam shovel.
The local Indian team was strength
ened by the support of a pitcher from
the Indian school. while the Gardner
vile nine had the same lineup as
formerly. but were all dolled up in
new uniforms which strengthened
them in pride, il in no other way.
Although the dust at times en-
veloped the players and hid them from
view OF the spectators and hindered
good playing to a considerable degree.
the game was exceedingly exciting and
held the onlookers until the last in
ming. The final score was s to II in
favor of Gardnerville. or Carson VAL
ley. whatever name the home team
is playing under.
The heavy wind dampened the spirit
of the band boys who did not feel dis
posed to go up against such a for
midable competitor In the blowing
business, and consequently let the
mighty force of nature have its own
way. However. the band boys have
promised to be, out and do their best
on the first good Sunday that comes
along.
Next Sunday the home team will
cross bats with the Carson players on
the local diamond, and from all ac-
counts the visiting team is made up
of a good aggregation of players Lo-
cal fans believe that the home team
has good lineup gEd II such be the
case. the game next Sunday will be
one Of considerable interest.
