Industries of this state.
"As an example of the everyday
activities now being carried on by
the war finance corporation, I quote
from a typical report of daily dis
bursement; Nevada, 100000; Colo
RADIO, s124,000; Montana, $219, 200;
Illinois, $4,000; Indiana, 1000;
Iowa, $4S3,000; Kansas, $4,000;
South Dakota, $4,000; Minnesota,
$80S, 900; North Dakota, $171 900;
Wisconsin, $4,000; Georgia, $780,
900; Texas, $347 ,000."
Mr.. Sheehan concluded his talk
with an explanation of the methods
that must be pursued by the stock
and farming interests of northern
Nevada if they are to be organized
into an association auxiliary to the
war finance corporation.
w. c. Pitts Talk in Part
81 feel that there is little more
to be said on the subject of pooling
the activities of the stockmen and
farmers of northern Nevada. l be-
lieve the two will constitute the
most powerful and beneficial body
within the state. The two are
classes of our population that should
be joined and directed in a common
purpose.
II fully appreciate Mr.. Sheehan's
talk on forming a livestock loan as
ISOLATION. | think it something that
we should have and l think that it
should be organized, not only for
the term in which We can obtain
money advances from the govern
ment, but for all time"
c. w. Creel Spoke
Cecil w. Creel, successor of C. A..
Norcross as director of state uni
versity extension work, responded
to POSTMASTER j. w. Wilson's ap-
peal and told about the carrying on
of the several departments within
his charge in this state. "We are
striving" he said, Ito not only teach
the woman how to cook and sew,
but our workers are striving for
other accomplishment, one having
to do with the sanitation of the
home" Mr.. Creel gave history
of the Farm Bureau organization
and cited its inception 10 years ago
in a local organization in a small
town in New York. There a strug-
Cling chamber of commerce sought
to organize the farmers of the COM
munity and hit upon the name,
Farm Bureau" as a suitable term
by which the little society would be
known. The evolvement of the term
resulted in a movement that has
spread over the entire United States,
proving that great movements start
in small way.
Benefits of Cooperation
Vernon Metcalf, secretary of the
Nevada Livestock Association, spoke
on the cooperative topic, and en-
phasized the benefits which issue
from the pooling of interests such
as has been undertaken by the
stockmen and farmers. County
Farm Agents." he said, "are greatly
restricted in their activities through
the rules laid down, which forbid
political activities on their part. 1t
frequently happens that politics is
the single avenue open to an in
dustry or industries in the attain
ment of laudable ends"

Resolve Against Carpet Baggers
Inasmuch as the agricultural and
live stock industry is of extreme i'm
portance to the welfare of Nevada,
and feeling that the permanent well
fare of this industry and our state
is vitality concerned therein, it is
the desire of the Humboldt County
stockgrowers and farmers, assem-
bled in joint meeting at Winnie
mucca, Nevada, this 9th day of De-
cember, 1921, under the auspices
of the Nevada Livestock Associa-
ton and the Humboldt County Farm
Bureau, to take this means of ex-
pressing their sentiments and feel
ings regarding the coming election
for 1922 of our governor and other
state officials, our sentiments being
as follows:
Without concern or favor in or to
any political party or any particular
individual, it is our most earnest
feeling that those selected for such
offices should be citizens directly in
terested through property holdings
in Nevada, and that the stockgrow-
ers and farmers of Nevada, joined
by all Others representing the vari-
Gus industries and businesses of the
state should interest themselves to
this end.

utes, stoutly declaring his innocence,
denying the charge that there was an
other woman in almost every breath.

the relief lightship stationed there
has not been heard from for several
days There was no anxiety over
Capt. Berry and his ten men, it was

with the radio equipment rather than
with the vessel itself The fact that
the steamship Oscar reported that the

last Sunday was considered without
significance in view of the fact that
no other Of the many vessels passing
