CROPS AND WEATHER
FOR WEEK. OF DEC. s

Observer H. +. Alps of the Reno
weather bureau of the department
of agriculture has issued the follow
ing weather and crop report for the
week ending December 6:
There was much cloudy n
stormy weather during the week II
the near temperature was about :
degrees below normal. The precipi-
tation was moderate in the west nor-
ton and light in other sections OF
Nevada. The amount at Reno was
0.40 inch, Winnemueca O.O9 inch,
Modena 0.51 inch. The lowest tenn
perature reported was 3 degrees be-
low zero at Rebel Creek. Strong
southerly winds prevailed at the close
of the week. The depth of the NOW
on the ground at Tahoe is ten inches.
The depth in the mountains IN the
northeast portion of the state Is about
normal for this season of the year.
The snow is twenty inches deep on
the summit ear Jarbidge.
Although the weather has been
somewhat unfavorable for stock no
material suffering was reported.
Feeding was heavier than during any
other week of the season. The snow
fall replenished the water supply on
the winter range but there was not
enough to interfere with grazing.
Fall grain was benefited by the snow
cover in the north. Sheep on south
ern ranges are mostly in good condi-
ton and cattle are fair to good. Cat
tie and sheep in western and northern
counties are generally in good condi-
ton, although the condition is re-
ported as only fair in the Rebel Creek
and WA districts. Cattle which are
being fed for beef are doing we'll ev-
lerywhere. Roads are reported as fair
TO good.

'ELKS' CHARITY BALL
EVENT Of THE SEASON

The event of the season will take
place neNt Saturday night in Bio
hall, when people from far and near
will gather in attendance at the
charity ball which will be given UNI
der the auspices of the Elks.
H. w. Edwards, chairman of the
committee in charge of the affair,
said yesterday that practically every
detail had been attended TO and the
sale of tickets indicated that the at
tendance would be the largest ever
witnessed at such a function in this
district.
! No doubt the most attractive feat
ure in connection with the great
event is that every dollar realized
will go TO charity. Last year the
Elks OF this district spent about ST.
600 and every needy family in the
district was properly cared for dur
ing the joyous Christmas season.
This entirely depleted the fund which
the charity ball is to replenish.
By buying a ticket to the charity
ball the purchaser donates a Christ
mas dinner to some needy family and
the same will be delivered through
the Elks in that unostentatious man.
ner for which they have become IA
nous and which makes charity
through their hands all the sweeter.
When the grand charity ball opens
those who attend will be repaid a
thousandfold by the entertainment.
For dancing Dutch Parkers six
piece orchestra will furnish the mu-
sic and this is conceded TO be an at
traction in itself that cannot be ex-
celled anywhere in the country.
There will be other attractions
a-plenty and of such a nature that
none can afford to overlook them.
It is well known taht when the
Elks raise the curtain it means a
night of enjoyment and one that will
ever live in memory. Next Saturday
night the best people on earth are
determined to make it the best night
ON earth. Those who attend will be
the gamers and If there be II who
may fail it will be their loss and
thereafter their regret, because oil
| all the virtues the greatest is charity

MRS
DRES AUDIENCES
(Olesen Campaign Committee)

h (Olesen Campaign Committee)
Whether due to the unusual heated
period this month OF the heated dis
cussions in Congress, at any rate pub.
lie interest is rapidly awakening to the
fact that Minnesota is to experience q
red-hot political campaign.
Mrs. Anna D. Olesen is continuing
her speaking campaign this week. She
appears at Hibbing, Virginia, CHS
holm, Eveleth and Duluth in evening
meetings, in addition to large mum
Der of shorter speeches to be given dur
ing the day at various points on the
range. Meeting with large crowds
and great enthusiasm wherever she has
appeared, the meeting at Worthington
last week attended by 1000 people was
the biggest political gathering ever
held in Mobiles county-and this 81
practically the start of the campaign.
Those who have followed. Mrs. Ole
sen s course believe that she is win
ming votes in tremendous numbers.
Quoting the Buffalo Lake News, the
senatorial situation sums up: "Every
one that understands the political sit
uation knows that the contest is be-
tween Anna D. Olesen and Frank B
Kellogg, candidates of the two major
parties.'' This is d logical conclusion
to reach.

MAKE COW RATION TEMPTING
That 10 Not PaiatabIe-Avo|d
Any Sudden Change.

The good dairy ration must be At
tractive. A COW Is self!respecting
sort of animal and she likes palatable
food. In fact, cow will not do we'll
on food that isn't palatable, and It
should be remembered that the condir
ton Of the food has the most to do
with its palatability. Moldy grains or
roughages do not appeal to the appe-
tite Of the COW, and consequently are
unsatisfactory. Thus the unsatisfac-
tory feed, no matter II It does contain
the proper elements, may cause Z re-
duction tn the milk supply due to the
cows unwillingness to eat q plenty to
keep up a good flow Of milk.
At the same time It must be recog-
nized that It is not a wise idea to
change a ration suddenly In order to
make 1t better. A COW Is pretty deli
cate sort Of a milk-producing machine
and, especially If she Is large pro-
Queer, sudden changes In the food are
quite likely to upset her in one way or
another, and the result will be a loss
OF milk.

'"Times have changed" said Antonio,
as he twirled his partner to the rhythm
of music. "When I come over five
years ago I no can wait. till ship land.
Now-music twice each day-this good
ship!'
Anyone with discerning eye would
see that times have changed In the
third class section, remarks the New
York Sun. Instead Of the old istless,
half-frightened attitude Of those who
knock at our gates, there is gayety
and spontaneous fun in the steerage
now. improvements in accommoda-
ton and deck sports on the big liners
account to some extent for the change.
But the greatest of these changes is
music. This innovation is a potent
factor for friendship, common inter-
est and happiness.
Youngsters from villages in Czecho-
slovakia, dark-eyed bambinos from
Cicily; chattering, bright, quick little
citizens of France-all Of them listen
to the music with a kinship Of spirit.
And when the orchestra turns from
''pieces" and the decks are enlivened
by dance music, their elders show
their appreciation and enjoyment.

Fasting to Cure Fits.

Epilepsy may be cured by fasting,
DR.. Hugh Conklin told the 26th annual
convention Of the American Osteo-
pathic association. Epilepsy, accord
ing to DR.. Conklin, is caused by the
improper functioning of certain glands
in the bowels. BY fasting for % days,
taking only water, cure may be ef-
fected, he said.
MANY people," said DR.. Conklin,
fast 80 days and are never afflicted
by fits again. The longest fast which
any patient ever took under my direc-
ton lasted 60 days. Out of 81 tests in
which children were used as patients
only two still are affected by the dis
ease. The children all were under the
age of eleven years, but we effect
cures in older patients in from so to
60 per cent of the cases we UNDER
take"

POTATO PRODUCERS URGED TO
DO MORE GRADING, STORING

Potato growers of the state are hav-
ing serious difficulty in selling pota-
toes at reasonable price this year.
If there ever was time when a quail.
ty product should be emphasized and
when we needed to pay more attention
to the marketing of crop it is this
year with this crop.
While the drouth has undoubtedly
affected the yield, and while it may be
necessary to make considerable ad-
justment in the estimated production
of potatoes, all authorities agree that
there is large crop; also that trans
portation difficulties add to the SER
iousness of the problem and that un-
less the very best grading practice is
established in potato centers there will
be very low market, if any at all, for
a part of the crop. With this end in
view, the extension division is anxious
to place all the emphasis it can upon
more and better grading, more storage
and more knowledge Of shipping and
selling potatoes.
While the price received for even
the best potatoes may not be as pro-
ftable as we would desire the returns
for ungraded, blemished, disease infect
ed stock are certain to be inadequate
at such a time as this. Such stock
should not be put on the market this
year.-Director F. w. Peck of the
agricultural extension service, Univer-
sity Of Minnesota.

dren a quart q day, while q good
COW yields enough to give 20 children
quart a day. The supercow, and
there are more and more Of them in
this class each year. gives enough milk
so that a small herd Of them might
supply this quantity to all the small
children in q small town.
On its farm at Beltsville, Nd, the
department has six cows, the result Of
its breeding work, that have pro-
duced an average Of more than $1,000
pounds Of milk in 365 days. This little
herd Of six big producers yields
enough milk to provide ITO children a
quart a day. One Of them could sup
ply nearly 30 children, or six times as
many as the ordinary COW could take
care of.
Good breeding, first, and good feed
ing, second, have made the difference.

'tCaution."

The psychology Of New York states
highway warning signs is interesting:
Instead Of saying danger" "sharp
curve ahead" bridge" ETC., these
signs simply read caution" This
isn't a very exciting warning, either
on paper or on the signpost, but it ex-
cites the curiosity. The driver
doesn't know whether he is coming to
a washout o.: steam roller. And be-
cause he doesn't know he is interest
ed. Being interested he is in doubt.
The road may develop nothing in par
ticular; yet, on the other hand, he may
get fooled if he tries to defy the warn
ing. Consequently he treads lightly
urcn the accelerator. He obeys the
Sig. without meaning to.

keep FEED UTENSILS CLEAN
Average Farmer IL Liable to Grow
Little Careless About Pals
In Summer.

Wide-awake dairymen realize the i'm
portance of keeping calf feeding uten-
sils scrupulously clean at all seasons
Of the year. The average farmer, how
ever, may grow little careless about
the calf pail, especially during the
warm summer months. These pals
should be of tin or galvanized iron,
never Of wood, and should not be al
lowed to get rusty or battered. They
should be thoroughly washed, rinsed
and sterilized after use, and kept In
q clean place. Never use calf pals
for feeding hogs, or live stock other
than calves.

SAVING CAN BE MADE ON CALF
RAISING BILL,

Six calves have been raised success
fully at University Farm by using
skimmilk powder in place of ordinary
skimmilk. The experiment was IN
charge of DR.. c. H. Eckles, chief Of the
division of dairy husbandry, and T. W.
Gulickson, a member Of the staff.
The change from the whole milk to
the skimmilk powder was made at the
age Of three weeks, they report. At the
end of 60 days the skimmilk powder
was gradually withdrawn from the "a
ton. From the age Of 20 days the
calves were fed alfalfa hay and E
standard grain mixture. AT six month
of age they were somewhat below nor
NAL, but attained the normal condi'
ton in both weight and height by the
age Of eight months.
Ten pounds of powdered skimmilk
added to 80 pounds Of water will make
100 pounds of normal skimmilk. The
powder can be bought for 10 cents a
pound. The grain ration consisted of
four parts Of corn, one of bran and one
of linseed. This mixture serves the
purpose just as well as more expensive
commercial calf meats, says DR.. Eckles
To raise the calf with the minimum
amount of milk was the motive of the
experiment. "The milk Of As out of
every 100 COWS kept in the United
States is sold as whole milk" DR.
Eckles says. "Owners Of diaries where
milk is marketed in this way are con
fronted by a serious problem in rails
ing the necessary number of calves te
maintain their herds. If no calves are
| raised and the farmer must buy what
| he needs, there is constant danger Of
disease and his herd seldom improve!

DEMAND EXPECTED FOR SUR.
PLUS SEED CORN

The farmer who saves more than
enough seed corn for his own planting
next year should be able to dispose Of
the surplus at good profit. Word re-
ceived at University Farm is that the
corn crop has suffered in some localities
from drouth, and that home grown seed
corn will be short in such districts. A
good market usually prevails for seed
corn that has been properly gathered
and which receives the right kind of
care through the winter. Seed corn
selected this fall should be placed I'm.
der shelter where there is free circula.
ton of air about each ear. This all
movement reduces the moisture content
rapidly and lessons the danger of dam.
age by rots, molds and freezing. Afto'
the seed ears have been well cured they
may he stored with safety in much less
space, provided the moisture content il
not allowed to increase to any extent.

Green's and rhubarb in winter as
well as in summer can be had by farm
ers and backyard gardeners at the cost
OF a little exertion and patience,
"The roots Of beets, chicory, swiss
chard, and rhubarb, can be dug in the
fall, planted in boxes or an especially
constructed bed IN the cellar and will
produce a crop of leaves and stalks
that can be used for the table IN from
five to eight weeks, !" says ". Z. Tap.

EATERS O MOOD
Odd Dietetic Habit That Is by No
Means Rare, !.
On North Coast Of Siberia the Natives
Prefer Il to Other More Nat
Ural Foods,

In several places on the north coast
Of Siberia the natives eat wood. not
because they must, but because they
like it, says the Lancet (London).
Wood is generally eaten even when
fish is plentiful, their favorite dish be-
Ing prepared by scraping off thin lay
ers Immediately under the bark of
larch logs, chopping them fine and boil,
ing them up with snow.
1t generally turns out that dietetic
habits which at first sight seem curl
Gus have rational basis. The vir-
tues of cod-liver oil no longer rest on
empirical experience and vague idea
that its efficacy was proportional to its
nastiness: the reputation Of fresh vege-
tables was gained I'M the days before
the Dutch taught US to grow turnips,
and hardy cabbages, and when some
thing like scurvy was an annual expe-
rience of the early spring.
1t is interesting to guess the rea-
son for wood eating. The cellulose
which forms so large a part Of q
herbivorous diet Is now recognized as
being subsidiary source Of energy
through the fatty acids produced in
the stomach and bowels by cellulose-
splitting bacteria. But the modified
forms of cellulose which form the mass
Of tree trunks are hardly attacked by
the bacteria of the alimentary canal
It is possible that the Siberians have
by practice and habit so altered their
intestinal flora that they can deal
with lignin with advantage, but this
seems troublesome way of getting
energy when fish and milk are avail
able, and it appears hardly likely that
the explanation of wood-eating lies
along these lines.
But if the habit suggests at the mo-
ment no rationale, it is curious to note
that it falls in line with the tastes Of
some other animals. The fondness of
rabbits for bark and the immediate
subjacent tissues is we'll known. It is,
perhaps, worth noting, too, that these
same invaluable experimental animals
are peculiarly fond of hard, woody
leaves-as, for example, holly, gorse
or hawthorne, and sometimes seem act
ually to prefer them to cabbage or
milk thistle. Ponies also are apt to
be possessed Of a devil or some curl
Gus appetite, and will set to work on
big forest trees and kill them by clean
ing off the bark and conducting tissues
down to the hard wood. These and
other examples Of similar tastes sug.
gest that there Is something particu-
larly good in the outer layers Of trees
and it is natural to think that it prob
ably resides in the young conducting
tissues rather than in the outer bark.
OF It's precise nature it is idle to
speculate.
