tion and that the local body should
take a strictly neutral stand in the
controversy, leaving the final decis-
ion in the hands of the Supreme
Court. the Interstate Commerce
Commission OF other properly eonsti-
tuted bodies. Upon motion duly

adopted resembling the previous ac-
tion of the Churchill County Cham

u. s. R. S. Obstructs
Plans for City Paving
Ask for Power Line Franchise in Re-
turn for Maintenance of
Ditch

The city council met Tuesday ev-
ening to discuss proposals of the
Reclamation Service for the remov-
al of Scott ditch across the south
end of town and which still remains
an obstacle In the way of the paw
ing plans. A tentative proposal
from Project Manager Richardson
that the city grant franchise to
the reclamation service for a power
line through the city of Fallon In re-
turn for the maintenance of the re-
moved ditch was objected to and no
action has been taken yet toward
letting contract for the paving.
A representative of the State
Highway Commission who was pres
ent at the meeting pointed out that
1t would be advisable to get the paw
Ing done this fall as the trend of
prices is upward and there is little
doubt but that the work will cos.
more than the present estimate II
postponed until next year. The bid
of $24,689.46 which was submitted
by King & Malone, of Reno. to the
Highway Board last week Is accept
able and 1t is estimated that the
work could be completed within six
ty days after letting of the contract
In order to reach an agreement
the removal OF the ditch
and the granting of franchise to
the reclamation service as soon as
possible the board Of directors Of the
irrigation district are trying to get
some kind of an acceptable proposal
from the federal authorities at
Washington by telegram.

Alfalfa Growers
Market Letter

(From the Alfalfa Producers Ex-
change. San Franciaco, Calif)
The alfalfa market has been max
ing steady advances for some weeks
past and at the present time. with
the first, second. third and fourth
cuttings, practically cleaned up and
in the hands of the dealers and the
growers who have provided them
selves with storage warehouses; and
with choice lots of fifth cutting sell
ing at SIS per ton at the growers
shipping point, it seems quite safe
to predict that the price will con-
tinue in its upward tendency; quite
naturally. the storage and handling
charges must be added to the cost
and the consumers who have not
provided themselves with sufficient
hay to oil their requirements fer the
winter and earlr ssHs4g months, viii
be Obliged to pay the higher prices.
There is not a doubt but that
through the work of the exchange.
the price of alfalfa was started OFF
at the opening of the season at from
two to four dollars per ton higher
than it would have been, had moth
ing been done and it might be said
right here that it is the intention of
the exchange, with the aid and sup
port of every grower of alfalfa to
keep boosting the good work right
along.
Alfalfa prices in other markets;
Los Angeles, s22; Kansas City, $21;
Atlanta, S25; New York. $32; Chi
eago. S23; San Francisco. $500.
