The county track meet held here
Saturday was a decided success, al

fine spirits, realizing that they must
put forth extra efforts. and combat
not only the contesting teams, but
also the elements.

the track events as the schools are
listed into classes in order 70 make
the work Of elimination quicker and
more satisfactory, and also TO give
the smaller communities a fair chance

match these smaller communities with
a larger place where they have a
wider range OF men to select from.

CONSIDERABLE FOOD
WASTED BY CHINESE

Winnemucca Chinese wasted con-
siderable food Tuesday in feeding"
the spirits of their departed rela-
tives and friends at the Celestial
cemetery near the w. P. depot. The
date is alleged to be regularly OBJ
served by the cooking of viands of
all kinds which are placed on the
graves of departed Chinese. Among
the cuisine taken out to the ceme-
terry was barbecued hog, numerous
baked chickens and other things
deemed delicacies by the Orientals.
Being within close proximity to the
Western Pacific railroad and thus
being of easy access to the hoboes
that are travelling through here in
flocks it seems little short of a mira
Gle that two days have passed and
neither the "spirits" nor "wearies"
have attacked the proffered feast.

APRIL SHOWERS CAME
IN THE FORM OF SNOW

Snow, almost warm to the point
of liquid, fell throughout yester-
day afternoon and evening, the
precipitation for the storm as re-
corded at the government observa-
tory in this city, being 20 of an
inch. This amount of liquid may
not mean much in some countries
but in most Nevada towns it brings
a surfeit of mud and Winnemucca
is no exception to the rule. The
storm is termed a breaking up"
demonstration on the part Of nature
and strong hopes are entertained
that better weather will favor
northern Nevada. The highest
temperature yesterday was 81 above
the lowest this morning 80. Yester-
days mean was 32 as compared
to the normal mean, AS. The pre-
vailing wind direction is southwest
and the forecast for tonight and
Friday: Fair.

NEY WOLFSKILL ON WAY
TO HIS MINING PROPERTY

Ney Wolfskill, of San Francisco,
who recently acquired the Vicks-
burg group of claims several miles
this side of Denio, after a long
period of litigation, returned to this
city yesterday after a stay on the
coast and will leave tomorrow for
his mining property. He proposes
considerable cleaning up around the
property in advance Of setting de-
velopment work under way and will
be back and forth between his head
quarters and this city throughout
the present season. Among the
chattels acquired by Mr.. Wolfskill
as a result of federal court pro-
ceeding are trucks and mine work
ing equipment and he expects to get
things to moving during the present
season and more or less promptly
make the Vicksburg a producing
property.
1t is on this group of claims
that considerable sums of money
were expended over a period of
several years, and at the conclu-
sion of the recent activities Mr..
Wolfskill found himself a principal
creditor to the amount of $4,000
in cash. Subsequent costs betrayed
by him brought his outlay in the
group to a sum in excess Of $780,
900 but he is confident that he
will secure the return of this, to-
gether with liberal interest, as such
time as he gets the Vicksburg prop
erty to producing.

"THE CONFLICT" SET
HIGH ATTENDANCE MARK

Manager H. C. Oastler, of the
American theatre, stated yesterday
that the high mark in attendance
at his amusement place for many
months was set by "The Conflict" +"
a melodramatic picture of surpass-
ing interest. The film is unusual
in many regards, not the least of
which is the welcome departure
from southern California aridity to
the beauties Of the western Oregon
woodland and halcyon valleys. Ad-
ditional significance given the rec
ord theatre crowds has to do with
improved business conditions in this
community and confidence in the
promises Of the theatre management
that an extraordinary attraction
was offered.

SAY SHEEPHERDERS NOW
WANT MORE COMPENSATION

Winnemucca flock owners assert
that advantage is being taken by
sheepherders Of the present lambing
period to demand increased wages
and the fact that help is not
plentiful has created a situation
generally complained about. 1t is
said that when wool went down to
the low mark last year that wages
dropped from war time figures
to an average of $50 per month
for herders and that during the
late months insistent demands on
the part Of flock workers have served
to almost restore the war time pay
schedule. Just now herders are
asking from $40 to $50 as a month
ly stipend and are further insist
ing that their checks shall be forth
coming promptly each month.

CIVIC CLUB CAVE
GOOD PROGRAM
Asssmblynan w. A. Brown Gave
And Advised On Several
Topics A. To Best
Msthods

The women Of the Civic Club
were entertained and instructed
Tuesday last at the regular meeting
by a splendid talk by w. A..
Brown Of the Eagle Drug Company,
on forestry"
After complimenting the women
on the work they had already ac-
complished and admonishing them
to continue in their work of civic
pride and upbuilding, he said the
city of Winnemucca should feel
much qualification in having such
a club in its community.
He did not consider what he was
to say as a speech, but merely a
neighborly talk. After discussing
the different trees and shrubs as
to beauty and shade, he proceeded
to give government statistics in re-
gard to life and climatic conditions
upon the different varieties of
shade trees. Having studied con-
siderable in past years Of the
different kinds Of trees, he was able
to give the women first hand
knowledge desired, from government
literature in regard to experiments
made by the government.
Having come to Winnemucca 38
years ago, Mr.. Brown spoke Of the
mistakes made in past years in the
planting of different trees, first
being the lombardi poplar, which
do not possess necessary en-
durance for this climate, requiring
an immense amount Of water and
growing a great height without
giving the required shade. Next
in line came the box elder, being
planted by many and found to be
even less practical than the lombard,
being q swamp growth containing
many insects which soon spread
disease to other shrubs, and called
the attention Of the members to
the laws Of some states which re-
quire the removal Of this tree.
Third came the Carolina poplar
and most members were greatly
surprised to learn the many draw
backs Of this particular species,
being the tree generally accepted
by many planters. This tree also
requires q great deal Of water and
while 1t has a very rapid growth
1t is not recommended by the gov
ernment on account Of its great
height, so often being the cause Of
great damage to life and property
through high winds. Its roots are
far reaching and sap the vitality
from many other shrubs. 1t has
been known to kill lawns on ac-
count Of sapping all the moisture
from them. The tree has not the
tough texture needed to prevent
breaking in the strong winds and
our peculiar climatic conditions. 1t
Is not q long-lived tree as its life
generally ranges from 80 to 30
years.
The tree greatly recommended
by the government for our country
Is the black locust, requiring very
little water, has spreading branches
for shade. is proof against the winds
and consequently an admirable tree
for this section of the country. Its
life is between so and 100 years.
1t was pointed out by the speaker
how much more valuable homes
would be IL surrounded by this
species Of trees as there need be
no tearing up and transplanting as
many Winnemuccans had exper-
fenced.
Another splendid tree is the
