Statistics collected show the 1921
suicide rate in the United States to be
an unusually high one, 10000 persons
having taken their lives during the
year. All classes of society were
included in the list of those who took
their own lives. There were ten edi-
tors, forty students, fifty -one school
teachers, twenty-one clergymen, thir-
ty-nine brokers', fifty seven judges and
lawyers, eighty-six physicians, seven
mayors, Lightweight heads Of large
corporations, seventy-six millionarres,
thirty wealthy womerS and ninety
three bankers. The oldest suicide
was 100 years and the youngest one
five years. Wealth nor position does
not seem to cure the desire to leave
the world.

FIRE DESTROYS
TWIN LAKE CAMP

At an early hour Monday morning
the dining room at the construction
camp of the Western States Gas &
Electric company at Twin Lakes,
caught fire from an oyer-heated stove
and withon few moments the build
ing was a mass of flames. The fire
spread to adjoining buildings, includ-
ing the commissary department, bak-
cry and cook house. The buildings
were temporary wooden structures
and within a short time were entirely
consumed by the flames Workmea
attempted to check the spread Of the
fire but lack of water prevented any
headway in this respect.
When the day shift came from the
tents some distance away and ap-
peared for breakfast, they found the
in smouldering ruins and
there was not thing to eat in camp
or way to cook it.
The superintendent of construction
sent seven motor trucks
to Minden and Gardnerville after
supplies, an order for thousand
loayes of bread cleaned out the bak-
cries at Gardnerville, Carson and
Reno. Before evening the trucks
reach Twin Lakes with supplies and
a temporary camp was established
and meals prepared for the $50 men
employed on the works.
II Is stated that about $4,000 worth
Of groceries were stored In the COM
building, all of which was
destroyed. The entire loss is figured
roughly at 100000 according to re-
ports received from the lakes.

CANTELOUPES
DO WELL HERE

Within a brief period of two years
Hearts of Gold canteloupes, raised
at Fallon have taken the country by
storm because of their unsurpassed
quality and in Eastern markets de-
mand a higher price than either the
Rocky Ford or Turlock melons.
1t Is generally believed that the
superiority of the Fallon melons Is
the result of particularly favored soil
found in the Newlands project This
is not a fact, however. because Hearts
of Gold seed planted in Carson Valley
will produce melon of equal quality
as that raised at Fallon. This has
been proven conclusively by Ed.
Godecke, who conducted an expert
ment with melons this season. He
admits that he did not give proper
attention TO his melon crop owing to
the shortage of help. but even lack
OF attention did not hinder the melons
from maturing in splendid shape.
Mr.. Godeeke favored this office with
a number of the melons grown on his
ranch and in comparison with the
Fallon product, 1t was impossible to
distinguish one from the other, either
from the outward appearance or from
the fnllness OF meat or rich flavor.
On the higher land in the vicinity
of Mr. Godeckes farm, there is less
frost than in other parts of the val
ley, this being ascertained a number
OF years ago through experiments
carried on by the Dangberg Land a.
Live Stock Company There is a
thermos belt following the higher
land and crossing the entire East
side of the Valley. 1t would be pos
sible, If conditions warrant, to raise
hundreds OF acres of melons In Car
son Valley, but 1t does not seem
likely that the new Nevada enterprise
will extend to this section, at least
not in the immediate future. How
ever, anyone who has visited the
melon district at Turlock. Cal, and
view the great strides made by the
farmers there and got an eyeful of
the prosperity that pervades the en-
tire district, cannot but believe that
a time will come when the produc-
tion of cantelonpes will be a profit
able crop In many of the valleys in
Western Nevada.

HONEY CROP IS
BELOW NORMAL

The honey crop In Carson Valley
this season is reported to be consid-
erably below normal, according to a
statement made by Dr. M. 8. Sweet
Wednesday, who estimates the output
fort his year to be about six tons.
The honey flow In Carson Valley
stopped about July 1st partly due to
unfavorable weather conditions which
followed a rain Storm" stated Mr..
Sweet, "and the bees quit work"
To care for his bees and honey
business, DR.. Sweet, last year erected
building at Minden in which his
crop is now stored. During the past
several weeks he has been engaged In
grading and packing the honey for
shipment. Heretofore he has dispos-
ed of his honey crop to jobbers. but
this year he has undertaken to dis
pose of the crop direct to retail deal
ers and Is meeting with splendid
success, orders coming from Califor-
MA and adjoining states.
In grading his honey crop, DR..
Sweet is using the greatest of care
and it is through this method that he
expects to build up his sales.
To most people honey bee is just
a bee, but to those engaged in the
business there is as great difference
In bees as in stock, and only yester-
day DR.. Sweet received eighteen pure
bred queen bees. Interbred bees do
not do the work of the better stock
and an effort is now being made In
this locality to improve the honey
bees through the importation of a
higher class stock.

HIGHWAY WORK
IS UNDER Way

In speaking of the highway work
being done in this county. the High
way Bulletin. the official publication
of the Nevada Highway Commission,
has the following to say:
On Monday, September IL. the De-
partment began the placing OF road
oil on the section of gravel road just
north of Minden, in Douglas county.
Inasmuch as this treatment is more
or less in the nature of an expert
ment by the Department, with the
idea of working out some satisfac-
tory type of Outbound gravel road
which will reduce the high main
tenance costs on the ordinary gravel
type. should the experiment on the
Minden section demonstrate the feasi-
bility of this type Of construction at
reasonable cost 1t will be used on
other gravel sections.
