NEVADA'S VOTES
USE MUCH PAPER

Carson, Nevada, July 20.-Almost
a ton and a half of paper will be
used by the electors of Nevada in
casting their ballots at the primary
and general elections this year, and
the State government will pay the
bill. That amount of paper has been
delivered to Secretary of State Brod-
igan for distribution to the various
county clerks throughout the State.
Under the State law the Secretary
of State is to estimate, with the aid
of the county clerks. the number of
ballots to be cast, and he must fur
nish the paper for printing the bal
lots.
This year 125 reams will be about
equally divided for the two elections.
The colors are to be green and blue,
and the paper is specially watermark-
ed, as also required by the election
law.

MAY NOT HARVEST
o A CROP

Statements given in Winnemucca
business circles is to the effect that a
number of ranchers of that county
will not attempt a second crop of al
falfa hay this year unless farm labor
conditions improve greatly from
those in effect at the present time,
says the Humboldt Star. 1t is as
serted in extenuation of the policy
proposed that hay lacks a sale mar
ket that will recompense the pro-
Queer for the money outlay involved
in haying operations. Z
1t is the complaint of many that
hay hands offering their services this
seaso lack the working interest;
that a due care is not exercised to
care for property in their charge. and
a general condition of demoraliza-
ton exists.
The seriousness of the situation is
pointed out by those prominent In
local affairs who assert that a d.
minished hay harvest may mean a
heavy loss of livestock next Winter
through the lack of forage to care
for the personal property which con-
stitutes the prime industry in north
ern Nevada.

BADGER INFLICTS
SERIOUS INJURIES

Wells Herald: Horton Haight of
Twin Falls Idaho, was the victim of
an attack by a badger early last Tues
day morning. Mr.. Haight, who has a
contract for hauling ore from the
Bullshead mine at Spruce, was camp
ed at Jasper siding in company with
a number of other men. Early on
Tuesday morning he was awakened
by what he said he thought was a
boxcar falling on him. However, he
soon learned that it was a badger
which had firmly fastened itself to his
nose. 1t required some time and eff
fort for his companion to pull the
animal from his face after which it
was dubbed to death. Mr.. Haight
was rushed here for attendance by
DR.. Olmsted. 1t was found that his
nos was very badly mutilated. being
almost torn from his face.
This is probably the first time such
a thing has ever happened as a bad
ger has never been considered a fight
ing animal unless cornered. There
is no doubt that the animal was rabid
but the name in which 1t was beat
en- up precluded the possibility of
having an examination made.
