IDAHO HORSES ARE
STARVING TO DEATH

Range horses of southern Idaho
accustomed in years past to pasture
on the Humboldt forest during the
summer months, are dying rapidly
according to word received from
the forest service headquarters.
Overgrazing of the southern Idaho
deserts where the horses winter, is
given as the cause of the increasing
death among the horses, together
with the fact that the Merritt Creek
drift fence erected last year, is
preventing the horses making spring
migration to forest service pastures.
The situation is becoming so SER
ious that feeding of the animals will
be necessary shortly, it is claimed.

NEVADA HORSES
EASTERN PRIZES

That the performance of horses

ring up interest in the east in the
product from George Wingfield's
stable is indicated by New York
papers which comment freely on
the success of the Wingfield horses,
Sea Tag and Blue Hawk, on the
Jamaica track.
The New York Globe and Com
mercial Advertiser, in a recent is
sue states that the English stall
lion Atheling End, which has been
brought into the spotlight by the
successes at Jamaica of the fast
two year olds, Blue Hawk and Sea
Tag, is away out in front in the
stations race for primary in the
string of two year old winners.
Since January l, eight sons and
daughters of Atheling End, which
is standing at George Wingfield's
Nevada stock farm near Reno, have
won-Melachrino, Erase, Lady Ny
ra, Faber, Tule, Dan Hogan, Blue
Hawk and Sea Tag"
The New York Mail in a recent
issue declared that breeding stu
dents of New York must direct
their attention to Nevada. The
events of the last two days at ia
maica make it imperative that the
far western state be granted wider
consideration as breeding ground.
George Wingfield's Reno ranch has
produced two highly promising juv-
eniles in Blue Hawk, a son of Ath-
cling End, out of Chocolate Lady
and Sea Tag daughter of the same
sire out of Suavita. Both have
walked home over colts and fillies
which had earned smart regulations
by morning trials"
The paper gives a brief history
of the Nevada stock farm and pre-
diets that the Wingfield horses will
stand high in Eastern racing circles
within a short time.
Mr.. Wingfield now has 16 horses
on the eastern and Canadian racing
courses as follows: Catalan, April
cot, SEQ Tag, Brown Belle, Cork
Elm, Humboldt, Blue Hawk, Recon-
mendation, lakewood, Ben Wood
Evelyn Sawyer, General Thatcher
Hillhouse, Albania, Amber and

1928 CHAUTAUQUA
CONT RACT HELD UP
Reno Action May Affect This City
and Deprive Winnemucca of
Further Chautauqua Meet
ings, 1t Is Claimed

When the Ellison White manage
ment, at the close of the 1922 Chau-
tauqua engagement last evening, in
sisted upon an immediate decision
on a proposition for next year, the
Washoe County Chautauqua Asso-
citation declined to sign a contract
with the result that prospects for
Chautauqua entertainment in Reno
in 1928 are exceedingly remote.
Elko and Winnemucca may be SINH
lar1y affected, the Chautauqua cor
poration having represented that
without Reno on the circuit, en-
gagements in the cities to the north
eastern part of the state will not
be practicable, says the Reno Ga
zette.
Hesitancy on the part of the
stockholders of the Washoe County
Chautauqua Association to enter
into a contract for 1928 at this time
was due to the failure of the Reno
public to give the enterprise ade-
quate support this year. At the
close of the performances yester-
day it developed that there was a
deficit approximating $500, this
years contract having called for a
guarantee of $1925. The Chautau-
qua management offered to COM
promise upon a settlement of $3.50,
which, it was stated, was the actual
loss on the Reno engagement, but
the association refused to liquidate
under the conditions of the contract.
When it was signed, it was assumed
that Chautauqua week would be
held here at the customary period,
the early part of June, and the
Chautauqua association takes the
position that the lack of patronage
was due to the fact that the at
fractions were billed too early for
| Reno.
Another element entering into the
| decision of the association not to
sign a contract at this time for 1923
| is the fact that Chautauqua's prox-
| unity to commencement at the uni
versity, when those who have
evinced greatest interest in the
| Chautauqua work must give their
time and attention to preparations
for the close of the school year
makes the time exceedingly unfavor-
able. This situation was largely
responsible for the deficit this year
it was said.
The probable withdrawal of Reno
from the Ellison White three-town
Nevada circuit is the seeming cause
of the Chautauquans' reluctance to
offer 1923 contract to local peo-
pie. Guarantors to the number OF
about AZ stood sponsor for the sue
cess of this years Chautauqua meet.
ing, and despite the fact that the
big Chautauqua tent has been well
filled with local humanity each night
so far this week, ticket sales did not
approximate the guarantee, with the
result that each of the AZ signers
will be expected to dig up 50 to
make good the deficit arising from
the ticket sales. As a matter of
veracity the ticket sale deficit
amounts to $18 for each signer
Ellison White managers absorbing
one-half the loss.

FLASHLIGHT SIGNALS FOR
 ASHLEY FALLS CROSSING
Will Replace Flagman At Smiths Crossing in
 That Place
''WHEN, RED STOP
New Haven Road Believes These Signals to Be Safer Than
 the Flagmen

The New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad will withdraw the crossing f1agman from Smiths Crossing, Ashley Falls, in the town of Sheffield, Mass. on Monday, Nov ember 13, when the Morrison Flash light Highway Crossing Signal will be placed in operation.
 Upon the approach of train, this signal flashes thirty times each min ute high powered electric red light in both directions on the highway, and continues to flash until the train has passed the crossing.
 The, Morrison signals are attached to the standard highway crossing sign located on both sides of the railroad crossing, and consist of discs "A inches in diameter, in the center of winch are 8-inch red glasses, through which shine flashlights giv- ing beam of 5000 candle power. These lights are so intense that they can be seen, at a considerable dis tance in bright sunlight. Surround ing the lights, on the face of the disc, are the words "When Red Stop" so arranged that they are il- luminated at night. #.#~
 The mechanism of these signals is as near perfect as human ingenuity can make it. An experience of years with the same apparatus in signals governing train movements on the principal railroads has shown that failures are almost unknown These signals will be in service day and nght, while at most crossings flag men are employed only during busy hours. Further, regardless of how faithful a crossing flagman may be, his crossing disc, white flag, or lamp, cannot be seen nearly so far as the Morrison signal, and under no con ditions can he attract attention as surely as the high-pqkered electric light flashing red along the highway every two seconds when a train is approaching.
 If the signals continue to flash after a train has passed, this indi- cates that another train is approach ing, either on the same or an ad- joining tpack.
