CARLOAD OF FISH
ARRIVED HERE

Monday an express car load of
young trout, eighty cans, and con-
tanning approximately two hundred
thousand fish arrived in Minden TO
be planted in the streams of Alpine
and the upper Carson rivers.
The shipment contained twenty
cans of rainbow trout, thirty cans of
lock leven, eighteen cans of brown
trout, a new variety in this section,
and twenty-six cans of eastern brook.
J. e. Drendel had made the ar
rangements for trucks to deliver the
fish and three trucks loaded with a
man to care for each load, deposited
them in the streams OF Hope Valley,
Pleasant Valley, Silver Creek and
Hot Springs above Markleeville, and
twenty-five cans were deposited In
the Carson river, at Youngs crossing.
This shipment of young trout came
from the California Fish and Game
Commissions hatchery. With the
proper amount Of protection these
should mature by another season and
fishing in this locality will be un-
surpassed
The state hatchery at Verdi has
been unable to supply any trout for
restocking purposes this season. Elk.
tensiye improvements are being made
to the plant, and It has been greatly
enlarged. BY next season 1t is ex-
pected the state will be In a position
to furnish any needed fish for re-
stocking the streams.

WIN. DAVID
MAKES REPORT

The past week has shown consid-
cradle Improvement In the highways
OF the state. owing to rains In some
sections and the completion OF un-
finished highway stretches, which
have cut down detours. according to
the weekly bulletin of w. NJ David,
secretary Of the Nevada Highway As
sociation. This bulletin gives COM
prehensiye report on road conditions
over the state and is of great value
to tourists and parties who intend
to make automobile trips. The report
Is as follows:
That the highway work so tar
completed in Nevada Is giving excel
lent satisfaction is attested to by the
reports received from tourists who
have crossed the state. A trip across
Nevada has heretofore been regarded
as q serious undertaking, never to be
repeated. but now there are many
registering who are making the trip
both ways, notwithstanding the efforts
made to divert them to Southern
California. preferring some rough
stretches OF road rather than the
heat encountered on the southern
trip. Detours continue to give cause
for complaint, but some Of these are
being shortened daily, so that there
Is not much complaint on this score.
For the first time In the history OF
motoring the roads of Nevada are
going to be able to carry the traffic
without interruption during the en-
tire season. The observant driver
recognizes the fact that detours are
necessary to any building program.
and goes on his way uncomplaining,
feeling that he will realize in the
future on the discomforts of today.
and that in short time good roads
will take the place of the nondescript
trails which have served to carry
the traffic Of bygone days, but will
do no longer for the auto which has
served to break down all barriers
between cities, towns, counties and
states. making all citizens Of one
great country, marked only by the
auto regulations which diger in each
state. Ninety per cent of those who
travel over the Reno-Carson highway
take occasion to remark about the
excellence of this paved road, rank
ing 1t with any piece of highway con-
struction in the country tribute to
those who had any part in its con-
struction.

ENTERTAINMENT
Was A SUCCESS

Miss Margaret Baldwin, the talent
ed blind girl who gave an entertain
ment at the Star Theatre last Friday
evening, was greeted with a fair size
crowd, but owing to the shortness of
time in which to advertise, many who
would like to have been present could
not be there.
From the opening number to the
close, the entertainment was one of
particular merit. Miss Baldwin has
a voice of unusual sweetness, and her
readings were most entertaining.
The demonstration which she gave
as to the method of teaching the
blind to read and write by dot sys-
tein, was greatly enjoyed and the
skill which she displayed in typing,
was excellent.
Miss Baldwin expects to give an
entertainment in Carson, also Fallon
in the very near future.

MARKET LETTER
TELLS OF CROPS

The alfalfa market has continued
to be very active the past two weeks
with prices holding firm at 1890 to
$500 per ton shipping point.
AS stated In our last letter, the
grasshopper and army worm damage
has been considerable, and as a re-
suit the yield on the later cuttings
Is going to be very short In all of
the infested districts.
The dairymen have had an Increase
of about four cents per gallon on
their milk and due to this fact they
are beginning to place orders for
their winters supply OF alfalfa hay.
The Exchange is of the opinion that
this increase the dairymen have re-
ceived will make considerable differ
ence in the movement of alfalfa hay
from now on.
Due to the shortage of alfalfa hay
in the state of California for the
season of 1922, the Exchange is of
the opinion that the present price is
much lower than Is justified by this
condition, and we wish to emphasize
the fact that the only way to hold
the present prices or to secure an
advance will be for the growers to
make all necessary arrangements for
piling and covering the later cuttings.
Unless this policy Is followed before
the fall rains set in, some of the
growers will begin to get nervous as
soon as there are any indications of
rain and will be likely to sell their
hayf or whatever price is offered.
This condition is the same each year
and the buyers always figure on buy
ing hay at bargain prices during the
months of September and October.
To substantiate the statement that
the present price of alfalfa hay is
too low for the farmer to make q
profit, We submit the following ex-
tracts from the conclusion reached
by A. c, Cooley, Agriculturist In
charge, Office of Demonstrations on
Reclamation Districts, after compar-
ing production costs on four typical
farms within the Newlands Reclama-
tion project In Nevada.
Mr.. Cooley states that alfalfa can
not be profitably grown for market
at the present prices. on land valued
from $24O to $415 per acre and dis
courages farmers within reclamation
districts from growing alfalfa for
the market.
The solution according to Mr.
Cooley Is for the farmers to feed all
of their alfalfa to dairy stock, but
unfortunately some Of the Califor.
mia growers have to produce hay fol-
the market to take care of the dairy
herds near the large cities and II
they continue to produce alfalfa hay
the price must advance enough tc
show profit or else the alfalfa pro.
ducer of hay for the market will have
to change to some other crop.

FIRE CAUSES
SOME DAMAGE

The Young Brothers resort at
Biiou narrowly escaped serious dam
age by a fire which occurred Tuesday.
1t seems that when the new fire
place was constructed the cement
work was placed over the top of the
sills. and by constant heat the tim
bers underneath caught on fire. It
probably had been smouldering for a
day or two ennoticed, when 1t finally
broke out. The timely aid OF the
Young boys and guests. saved the
hotel from possible destruction.
The damage was slight other than
the tearing up of the fireplace. This
viii be repaired at once.
