A TRIBUTE TO THE MEMORY OF
 WALTER LEWIS wHITTEMORE

None knew thee but to love thee, Nor named thee but to praise.
 These words are justly true of Wal ter Lewis Whittemore.
 To his many friends who loved him, I want to give an appreciation of his worth, I pause by the memory of my Father, in my desire to pour all that is in-my heart, for it would be his wish to have little said about him.
 However it is the earnest desire of his family to give to the world that praise of him that was his just due, that the fitting word be spoken now, as a balm to our hearts, as well as 8 tribute to bis memory.
 The Bible says, "As a man think eth, so. is he". He who is the subject of this story never divorced himself from good, he thought of love and da- diated it.
 A person is remembered most by those little nsmeless acts of kindness and of love. 'That which bespeaks the soul" He never spoke but in accents of kindness honesty and love. The true spirit so shown forth in his daily walks of life that all who came in contact with him felt the influence and were uplifted. Soul is kindled only by soul.
 By this spiritual manifestation He was an ideal loving husband and fath- CT. I realized never more SO as l stood beside the casket that contained his mortal body. That he still lived in our hearts made better by his presence, that his influence still is potent in this nstsrisl sxistance.
 That whils memory Mda us wsep

reason bids us rejoice that once in a while God sends us a messenger be- coming his image.
 As James Russell Lowell said: Immortal feel it and know it, Who doubts it of such as he immortal away from me" But that is the Pangs very secret, mortal away from me"
 However rejoice that he number d me among his great Family this thought is bright star in my eenil- ,an blue. It is glorious thought also, that he lived in his life time.
 All gave to him the gratitude of their hearts because they received so much from him. His was a rare spirit.
 Because knew him so we'll feel that can understand the poet when he said, "The good die young, but they whose lives are dry as Summers dust burn to the socket" That must get an other chance in this world. He needed no longer time here.
 America has lost a patriot whose influence cannot be over estimated. We who knew him intimately have gained an inspiration for joyoumess and goodness which car never be lost. When hearts whose truth are proven, Like thine are laid in earth There should a wreath be woven To tell the world their worth.

haps. but not unseasonab BILE. The sun
shone brightly, and late in the day the
temperature approached summer figure.
The bright weather and the promising
programs at the churches attracted
large crowds to the services at the
various places Of worship. The high
ways were crowded with autos and
motorcycles, and the byways attracted
the pedestrians. Birds were in evidence
in the fields, and all signs indicated that
winter had taken its leave for a season.

PITTMAN INTRODUCES BILL
TO CONVEY COMMUNITY LAND

Senator Pittman introduced bill
last Thursday authorizing the secre-
tary of the interior to convey to the
Truckee Carson irrigation district
the land now being used as commun-
ity property, according to dispatch
received in Fallon. The reclama-
tion service informed Pittman that
they will lease the land to the dis
trict but without further act of
congress there is no authority to
convey it,
In letter to l, II. Kent, Pittman
advised the water users to obtain
the lease due to the necessary delay
of congressional action.
President Johnson of the Green
head hunting club Immediately
wired Pittman asking about the
reservation of hunting rights in case
the transfer was made. The sena-
tor replied that the bill does not pro-
vide that the hunting rights shall be
reserved and that that matter will
have to be settled with the depart
ment of the interior.

Monday.

The following resolution was
adopted by the board:
Whereas, there appears to be no
urgent necessity for the construc-
tion of the Diagonal Drain and the
water that it is intended to carry
can be run into the Carson Lake bed
during the next year without mater
ial drainage, and;
Whereas, a large proportion of
the waste water due to canal regu-
lation during the past year could
have been avoided by a closer regu-
lation of headgates and of farm de-
liyeries, and;
Whereas, there are many por-
tions of the district in urgent need
of drainage relief to prevent great
damage during the next year;

A PROCLAMATION
BY THE GOVERNOR

l, Emmett ID. Boyle, Governor, OF
Nevada, under the authority vested
In me, do hereby designate and pro-
claim Friday, November II, 1921, as
Armistice Day and l call upon the
people of Nevada to observe this an
niversary by such appropriate acts
as its significance in history and its
glory reflected ON our soldiers and
our institutions so richly merit
The first Armistice Day was the
elimination of great military ef-
fort TO establish right by force OF
arms. There still remains the need
of giving a sanction and compelling
power to right through the controll-
ing power of an acceptance of prin-
eiples of law and order that will
make war obsolete.
A great conference, called by the
President OF the United States for
this further object, lends added dig
nifty and significance to this ami
yersary.
| suggest further that on Sunday,
November 6, 1921, the people, in
their places of worship and in their
homes, do, according to their sew
eral customs and obseryances, offer
up prayers to Almighty God that the
Washington Conference may be pro-
ductiye of results which will advance
the day of peace on earth to men
OF goodwill
AS a part of the observance of
Armistice Day, | need not remind
the people, a recollection and re-
newed estimate of the great deeds
and sacrifices of our soldiers and a
recognition of our duty to devise a
moral equivalent of war must al
way be dominant factors.

Syndicate Men
Stop Drilling
OIL Men Still Hope TO Bring In
Gusher; Stop to Obtain
Heavier Equipment

The Syndicate Oil company OF
Fallon has suspended operations,
probably till next spring, was the
announcement made Monday by j
II. Miller, president of the company
According to Miller. the equipment
now on the field is too light for the
work that is being done and a new
drill Will have to be installed
A "Lucey" rotary drill, capable of
drilling much deeper has been ord
cred, but he does not consider it ad-
yisable to attempt to drill until next
spring, he said.
A meeting of the board of direc-
tors of the company will be held in
the near future and definite ar
rangements regarding the future of
the company will then be made.
Miller said, that the company had
no Intentions of abandoning the
field and that the prospects for
striking oil look as good at present
as they have at any time since op-
erations commenced.
When work was stopped the drill
was down 2731 feet, he said.
Although he has announced his
candidacy for governor Miller said
that his present visit to Fallon has
nothing to do with his race for
gubernatorial honors but was solely
business trip.

California Cattle Ouarantined;
Order Is Effective Immediately
Churchill County Dairy Men Endorse Action of State
Officer Prior to Order; Herds Now Free From
Tuberculosis; Cline Pleads Ignorance

The shipment of dairy and breed
ing cattle from California to Nevada
is prohibited after November Sth.
according to a quarantine order is
sued by Edward Records, state quar-
antine officer last Monday.
The action of Records is said to
have resulted from the development
of tuberculosis in several herds that
have recently been brought to the
Newlands project from California
In speaking of the quarantine In
a letter of November 9th to ]. r.
Maben, Records says. .'your letter is
very timely in SO much as the mat
ter we discussed at the time of your
visit to the Office has since then
come to head In the case of the
herds of A. A. Towle and Miss Jane
Sutherland of the Swlngle Bench,
which showed approximately fifty
per cent of reactors on a retest ap-
piled less than sixty days after they
entered the state of Nevada.
The question of a quarantine on
California cattle was discussed at a
meeting of the Churchill county
chamber of commerce Monday even
ing, prior to the receipt of the order.
The concensus of opinion was that
some steps should be taken to pre-
vent the shipment of diseased cattle
into this state. In speaking of the
reactors in the Towle and Suther-
land herds, Maben stated that they
contained fifty per cent reactors and
that l.. E. Cline, consulting agricul-
turist, was supposed to have tested
them for tuberculosis. Maben add
ed that California is doing every
thing possible to cast off old cattle
and that Nevada is getting the
slough off. while California is stock
ing up with thoroughbreds. The
Nevada herds are now clean, said
Maben and we must keep them that
way. IL we allow tubercular cat
tie to be brought in we cannot ex-
pect dairy men to bring in their own
herds and run the risk of contami-
nation. A boycott on California
cattle was what he advocated
Cline later stated that forty cattle
of the eighty-two that were brought
in reacted. The cattle. he said,
were tested in his presence, by DR.
