ROADS ARE GOOD UP
NORTH is THE WORD

Word has been received by the
Humboldt county chamber of COM
merce to the effect that the Winnie
mucca-Boise road is in good condi-
tion between Jordan Valley and
Snake river and that with the ex-
cepton of about six miles of dis
tance south of McDermitt it is
fairly smooth throughout. The Jor-
don Valley chamber of commerce
reported upon the roads and added
that the erection of road directing
signs along the Winnemucca-Boise
route of travel would be undertaken
soon. Metal signs, nine by fourteen
inches in size, have been ordered
by the enterprising Jordan Valley
residents, these having yellow
baked enamel surface with black let
tering. A request has been issued
that Winnemucca and Humboldt
county authorities cooperate with
the road sign movement instituted
in Jordan Valley.

INTERESTING FARM
BUREAU MEETING HELD

Farm Bureau authorities met with
the Center at Orovada recently in
cluding E. C. Riddell, state president
Thos. R. King, county agent in White
Pine county; Jos. w. Wilson, Hum
boldt county agent, and Miss Mar
jorie Mann, home demonstration
agent for this district. A majority
of the residents of the district was
present and all joined the National
Farm Bureau as 1922 members at
the solicitation of Mr.. Riddell.
Mr.. King addressed the Orovadans
on "What Not to Do in Irrigation
Pumping" and pointed out proper
methods of installing pumps and
the most logical water systems and
their operation. The costs that at
tend this form of irrigation in this
state are as follows, according to
Mr.. King: Where the water lift is
twenty feet and the crude oil cost
approximately ten cents per gallon,
three acre feet of water will cost
the homebuilder about $3.50; where
the lift is forty feet and fuel costs
ten cents per gallon the cost may
be fairly approximated at 5000.

WILL STRIVE FOR
ORGANIZED EFFORT
Nevada State Farm Bureau Head Is
to Seek Meeting That Will
Make Plans for United
Effort in the West

President E. C. Riddell of the Ne
vada State Farm Bureau announced
on the occasion of his recent visit
to this city that he would communi-
cate in the near future with the
heads of other state Farm Bureaus
throughout the west and ask con-
ference to be held in Salt Lake
City early next fall at which CO.
ordination of effort will be sought.
1t is Mr.. RiddelPs plan to effect ar
rangements that will admit of a
general survey of conditions
throughout western states, espe-
cially those relating to the endorse
ment of arid land reclamation
schemes, and he believes that effec-
tive cooperation with the federal
reclamation service may be brought
about through the Farm Bureau
agency.
1t has happened in the west that
the government has given espousal
and made great financial outlays
on schemes not entirely feasible,
while small projects, presenting
much in home building opportunity,
have been neglected. Believing that
western Farm Bureau organizations
can be of material assistance to the
federal government in making land
reclamation plans it is proposed that
the Farm Bureau shall select in a
tentative manner and recommend to
the federal authorities areas where
economical water distribution pos
sibilities and fertile soils combine.
Likewise, it is the plan to consider
preliminary estimates of cost, mar
keting possibilities and other factors
entering into the BODYBUILDING
process and advise with the federal
authorities from the standpoint of
practical farmers.
Mr.. Riddell will shortly issue a
call for the Salt Lake meeting and
it is believed that his suggestions
will meet with a general response.
The principal object sought is the
adoption of reclamation plans in
yolving the most economical land
irrigation projects and the elimina-
tion of others in which project con-
struction costs would exceed the
sum within reach of the home
builder. His move forms one of the
most logical undertakings set afoot
in the west.

TEN MILE GIVES MUCH
PROMISE OF RICH REWARD

Milo Wilkerson, one of the pio-
neers of Ten Mile, the new gold
camp that nearly ADULTS on Winnie
mucca's corporate limits, discussed
the prospects of gold recovery in
his district when he was in town
Thursday evening and voices the
belief that some astounding devel-
opments are to be shown shorty in
his district. He emphasized his talk
with samples of chrystallized gold
streaking the rock which he brought
in, reclaimed from the REQ. No.
claim. This claim is owned by Will
Der Wilkerson and |. McGarry of
this city, and should prove a bon
ANA, according to Milo Wilkerson,
who is working it under the terms
of lease.
Others in the district who have
excellent gold showings are "Raw-
hide" Jack Davis and F. A. Broe-
dow, on the Lazy Horse claim; Newt
See and associates on the Orange
claim; G. w. Nelson and Frank
Obiols on the Coyote claim.
In the case of Davis and Broe-
dow a ledge of high-grade milling
ore, 81 inches in width, has been
uncovered and the 26 foot shaft is
marked by streak of gold where
nuggets worth a dollar or more are
frequently gouged out of the rock.
One of the distinct attractions OF
Ten Mile camp is the Orange claim.
which already has production to its
credit. 1t was from this claim that
the owners panned out nine ounces
of gold recently and brought the
new wealth to this city to satisfy
the curiosity of local people anent
the progress of affairs in the brand
new camp.
Nelson and Obiols have splendid
free gold showings on the Coyote
claim.
Ten Mile is in reality one of the
most commonplace districts in the
west so far as geology is concerned
and consists largely of areas that
give no outward sign of the rich
ness already proven.

MANAGER OASTLER GIVES
PUBLIC GOOD ATTRACTIONS

Manager Oastler, of the Ameri-
can theatre and Nixon opera house,
has provided genuine attractions
at his amusement places during late
days. The feature film, "Over the
Hill," shown at the American
Thursday night has been uniformly
pronounced the best screen acting
seen here in many months. Mr..
Oastler followed this extraordinary
attraction with Browns Saxaphone
Six last night and the town was
fairly flooded with rythmic jazz and
concert music. Following the thea
ire performance dancing was pro-
vided at the Nixon to the syncopa-
tion of the six visiting musicians
and a big crowd had the time of
their lives. General appreciation
for Mr.. Oastler's entertainment eff
forts has been spoken by Winnie
muccans.

HOMAGE TO A. MARESCHl

Funeral services were held yes

time. Requiem mass was said by
Father Hugo Meisekothen. The

Kirby, T. M. Thorson, Roscoe Roe,
Warren Puritt.
The late Mr.. Mareschi was held in
very high regard in this community
and had won an enviable place
through industry and uprightness.
The most splendid testimonial that
can be paid to his memory is the
genuine grief of those who were
associated with over period of
many years in the conduct of the
affairs of the Winnemucca Water
and Light company.

District Judge J. A. Callahan has
rendered his decision in the case of
|. j. Studebaker against Mrs. Fran
ces Eichwaldt, both residents of the
Orovada district, wherein the plain
tiff sought the recovery of moneys
alleged to be due from. Mrs. Eich-
waldt. The defendant presented a
counter claim in her appeal from
the Justices court to the district
court and after making certain de-
ductions Judge Callahan awarded
Mrs. Eichwaldt judgment for bal
ance due her of $159 over and
above the amount allowed Mr..

case of Jos. Scott, late administrator
of the Charles Pedroli deceased, es-
tate, in which he reduced the
amount of indebtedness owed by
Scott to the estate by the sum of
S400. In a previous order Judge
Callahan ruled that this indebted
ness amounted to a sum approx

Materials Will Be Moved to Midas
Mine and Active Mine Work
Started Within the Next
Thirty Days

A deal has been closed in which
the Big Chief Mining Company
owning proven mining property at
Midas, acquired the Wheeler milling
plant in Lewis Canyon, near Battle
Mountain. Jerry Coughlan, super
intendent of the Big Chief Mining
Company, will be in this city to-
morrow and on Monday he will go
to Battle Mountain in company with
Duane Bush, one of his company
stockholders, to arrange to move the
mill equipment purchased. Addi-
tional milling equipment is to be
ordered in San Francisco and a
plant will be assembled Immediately
at the Big Chief mine that will have
daily ore working capacity of fifty
tons.
The Big Chief mine is one of the
proven properties of the state and
more than a million dollars in ore
values have been blocked out. 1t is
located 66 miles northeast of this
city and has been patented.
Among the equipment to be moved
from Lewis Canyon is the big Dies
sci engine which was exhibited at
the San Francisco fair in 1915. The
engine base alone weighs nine tons
and presents a problem in transport
that may prove more or less vexa-
tious. The engine is of 200 horse
power.
