with President Harding's legislative
program, which includes: Ratihca-
ton of treaties with Germany. Aus
tria and Hungary; passage OF a tax
revision bill; enactment of a railroad
relief measure. and a permanent tar
III bill. The heaviest burden will fall
on the Senate. the House having COM

measures. Out of respect to the death
of Representative Taylor the first
days session is expected to be brief.
CONGRESS IN SESSION

afternoon with the prospect of con-
tinuous sessions until late next year.

Senate and were referred to the for
eign relations committee and will be
called up by Senator Lodge to-mor-
row. The $4,000 600 tax bill was

Nevada Highway News: The Unit
ed States Bureau of Public roads, in
reporting their investigation Of the
California Highway System, recently
published this statement: st is OBJ
served that during the decade, 1910
to 1920, the population Of California
has increased A per cent and the
population on the highways, exclusive
of the two largest cities, So per cent.
Highways like railroads build up bust
ness" Doubtless a large portion OF
the So per ZEN increase of population
along the highways is due to the i'm
provement of these highways. The
improvement of Nevada's highways
will have a similar effect.

NEVADA INDIANS GATHER.
PINE NUT CROP

Winnsmucca Star: This Is the
season Of the year when the Indians
20 to their favorite mountain pine
regions to gather Q supply OF pine
nuts, of which the Piutes and the
other Indians are so fond OF. the
tribesmen are not so far ahead Oh
their white brothers on this score.
for when the local Indians return. al
most everybody will be seen feasting
on these nuts. The meat is very
wholesome and healthy as it contains
a large amount Of gum or oil that Is
beneficial to the human system. There
is a peculiar feature In connection
with pine nuts in the State OF Ne
vada, and that is the pinon pine trees
that produce the nuts do not grow
north Of the Southern Pacific railway.
This is a peculiar fact. but neverthe-
less true. At no great distance south
Of the railway the pine nut trees are
found In abundance on different
mountain ranges The local Indians
generally go to Churchill County,
where there is an abundance of nut
pine trees. The range Of the pinon
pine embraces considerable territory
beginning in Utah, Nevada and Arr
IONA from desert attitudes from q
500 feet to 10000. and extending
from Lower California to the Canad-
ian boundary. The principal pine
| nut sections in the northern part OF
| Nevada are mountain ranges In Eu-
reka, Churchill and White Pine Coun-
ties. The Grapevine mountains ad-
jacent to Death Valley and the Owens
Valley section Of Inyo County, Call
fornia, including the White noun
tains are great centers for pine nuts.
The pinon pine nut tree Is a slow
grower and is hardly over twenty-five
feet high, with a trunk rarely straight
and the branches hang low. These
trees flourish under the whitening
| blaze of the Summer sun for many
months without moisture and defes
the cold blasts Of the high attitudes,
The Indians gather the nuts in the
same primitive way as was employed
centuries ago. The Indians gather in
parties and forget all else, the squaws
do the work and the bucks boss the
job, and they are generally out FIVE OF
six weeks. When the pinon pine
cones or burrs begin to ripen and
crack open due to frosts. the nuts
drop out like chestnuts. The Piutes
spread blankets under the trees and
beat them OF with clubs and poles
The cleaning is done by the squawi
who use fanshaped willow baskets
tossing them up and down in the
wind while all refuse is blown away
The cleaning is followed by the nee
essary process Of roasting. A pit II
dug, a lot of rocks r heated Otter
by burning cones dropped and thu
nuts are spread over them and stirred
until done. Only an Indian can d.
this properly. They drop out quickl!
after being roasted and should b.
eaten before a few months. In thu
raw state they may be kept long in {
dry, cool place.

CURRENT COMMENT
By Arthur Brisbane

Lloyd George is not coming to
America after all and that's a pity.
Since Cromwell's day there has been
no more interesting or more powerful
man In England.
In Lloyd Georges brain there Is a
reservoir Of power. patience. perse-
crane and energy that you couldn't
replace in the brains of a hundred
average great men," 1t is a pity
that this country is not to see him.

The other day in Picking, China.
John d. Rockefeller. Jr., reading a
friendly message from his father.
gave to the Chinese city a hospital
and medical college that cost eight
million dollars. The gift was not
charity. The Rockefellers don't con
slider IL charity. for China has given
them, in cash. many times eight mil
lion dollars.
This Rockefeller gift on the other
eide of the earth represents common
rense. 1t will save the lives Of mil
lions of Chinese-and they will buy
more oil, but Rockefeller cares moth
ing about that.
The important thing is that it will
make the whole world healthier and
help to clean up Asia as a spot that
breeds disease, the worst plaques,
then sends them travelling to us.
Young Mr.. Rockefeller, with IRON
gray hair, thin, pale face, made of
hard work and pure water only, ad-
dressing powerful officials of the
worlds most ancient people, giving
them eight million dollars worth of
science that they don't know how to
provide for themselves, is a new pic
ture. II shows human energy trans
formed into dollars, the soldiers that
never eat or sleep. conquering with
science farther from home than any
military conqueror ever carried vic
tory.
Alexander never reached China,
heard of 1t vaguely perhaps.
Mr.. Rockefeller goes there, his en-
tire fighting force being his fathers
checkbook, and instead of arranging
to show his power by massacring Chi
nese as Alexander would have done
he shows 1t in the modern way by
saving the lives of Chinese. The
world improves, although it still
needs leaders and rulers OF the Rock
efeller type. not having yet learned
to lead or rule itself.
