CATTLE SCAB IS
FOUND in VALLEY
Disease Brought to Carson Val
ley by Shipment of Stock
From Elko Co.

A press dispatch from Sacramento
to the Reno Gazette states: Alarmed
over reports that cattle scab, or scab-
les, is present in the Carson Valley,
just across the line in Nevada, and
that some of the infected cattle al
ready have been brought across the
state line for sale to meat buyers In
California, DR.. ]. p. Iyerson, head OF
the state division of animal industry
of the state department of agriculture
announced Monday that he had order
ed an immediate investigation of the
situation.
Report that cattle in Douglas coun-
ty we're infected with scabies were
prevalent several weeks ago and an
inspector from the Salt Lake office
DIR. Given, was sent to investigate
According to reports received by gov
ernment officials, he found sixty bull
infected and ordered large number
of cattle dipped as being exposed.
This work is still going ON and the
situation is nearly cleared up, it is
said.
Yesterday DR.. F. H. Baker, veterin-
arian, stated that he had been infor1A-
ed by DR.. Records, state quarantine
officer, that cattle In Douglas and
othed Nevada counties had been quar-
antined, and on stock can be shipped
out without special permit
Cattle that is infected with scabies
is confined to shipment Of bulls pur-
chased by the Walker Range associa-
tion In Elko county and shipped to
this section last fall. However, as
scabies is communicative, all stock
that has been exposed. must be dip
ped to prevent its spread.
The bulls were distributed on not
more that four ranches in Carson
Valley, the balance of the shipment
of infected animals going to stock
men in Smith and Antelope Valleys.
Yesterday DR.. Givens went to those
Valleys to inspect the animals and
order dipping.
Practically all of the beef animals
fatened In Carson Valley during the
winter, have been sold and shipped
to market, and the real difficulty to
be faced by the stoclnnen of this sec,
tion, is to get the situation cleared
their herds to the mountain ranges.
No difficulty is to be experienced in
stamping out the scabies, and already
the bulls have been dipped six times
and all other stock exposed, have
been dipped once.

BIG RANCH. DEAL
CONSUMMATED
Virginia Ranch Sold to ]. A.
Cardinal, George Hussman
and Fred Frantzen

The biggest real estate deal to be
put through in this Valley In the past
number of years was consummated
Saturday, when Chris Hellwinkel sold
what is known as the Virginia ranch,
consisting of some 500 acres, and one
of the most desired farm properties
in Carson Valley. ]. A. Cardinal of
Minden, secures about 27O acres of
the home ranch, Chris Frantzen takes
one hundred acres of the north por-
ton, while George Hussman secured
the balance of about 1870 acres lying
on the west side of the county road
and adjoining his home ranch.
While the aggregate purchase price
has not been made public. it will be
remembered that some years ago the
property sold for something like
100000.
Since the property has been under
the management of MIR. Hellwinkel
many Improvements have been ac-
complished and the only reason that
he consented to sell at this time, Is
on account of poor health, requiring
him to move to lower altitude.
There is little feeling Of senti-
ment mingled with this deal, because
the Virginia ranch, for many years,
was owned by Mrs. Cardinals father,
the late III. C. Dangberg. 1t was there
that Mrs. Cardinal was born and
her school days spent On the other
hand the land purchased by Mr..
Hussman, was originally located in
early days by Jim Williams, father
of his WIFE
Mr.. Cardinal has already taken
charge of his newly acquired property
and will probably take up his resi-
dence there as soon as Mr.. Hellwinkel
closes his business affairs and re-
moves with his family to California.

SCHOOL PUPILS
PHYSICALLY FIT
Nevada Public Health Ass0cia.
tion Officials Make Examina-
tions and Report

Mrs. Martha Davis and Miss Ger
trude Airth, executive secretary and
nurse of the Nevada Public Health
Association, arrived from Reno last
Thursday and examined the schildren
attending the Minden and Gardner
Vile schools. The children were
weighed and measured, and examin-
ed as to tonsils, teeth and eyes.
Some months ago the children OF
the two schools were interested in a
health crusade" and each pupil
was given cards to keep record OF
care of teeth, baths and the like and
much interest was shown by the
youngsters.
Mrs Davis states that a remarkable
high average of physical well-being
was found among the children OF the
Minden and Gardnerville, especially
in the care of their teeth, and she
is convinced that the health
crusade" started some months ago,
is responsible for the high average.
The visit was made at the request
of the principals of the schools. AT
Minden thirty-four children were ex-
amined and ninety-six at Gardner
vile.

mo JAZZ DANCES
AT 49, D0INCS

Sacramento, Calif-Found at last
"a dance hall in the United States
where jazz will not be WELCOMED A
dance hall where cheek to cheek
dancing, the shimmy and the toddle
will be frowned upon, and where the
present generation of jazzers may
CLEAN an idea of how their parents
and grandparents danced! ~
This lonely outpost of the old-time
dance steps, that will range its
phalanxes of square dance, reels and
dreamy waltzes defiantly against the
great army of King Jazz, will be the
Casino in the '49 Mining Camp at
the Days of '49" celebration, to be
held here May 1928.
1t will be an exact replica of the
big '49 dance hall erected in Hang

The interior of the Casino will be
fitted up elaborately, as were the
dance halls when bags of gold dust
and nuggets were tossed upon the
bar to pay for the drinks.
Music for dancing will be furnished
by ''fiddles," banjos and Spanish
guitars, the same instruments tc
which the argonauts danced seventy

Deputy Attorney-General Says
Sale Is a Burlesque and
Something May Happen

Sale of the assets of the State
Bank & Trust company was conduct
ed by Frank l.. Wildes, Monday by
order of the court, says the Reno Ca
zette.
The bid of the First National bank,
Tonopah offering $4,000 for the nve-
story banking building In Tonopah
was received and the sale was made
subject to the confirmation by the
court. Four years ago this summer
thes anne bank bid $4,000 for the
property, but the sale was not at
that time authorized.
The Averill lodging house, also in
Tonopah, was bid in for $3.50 by
Charles II. Hudson, a San Francisco
broker. All sales were made subject
to approval of Judge Langan.
The Crockett building In Tonopah
$40.
The Carson City bank building was
purchased by W. F Dressler for S..
900.
Jumping Jack Merger Mines Com
pany stock to the amount of 2.400, 900
shares brought 5000. C. II. Hudson
being the highest bidder.
Other stocks, ranging in quantities
from 1000 to hundreds of thousands
of shares were in most instances pur-
chased by Hudson at ten, twenty
and fifty cents a lot.
One or two blocks offered during
the afternoon brought 81 each.
An exception to the general rule
was the 1902 shares of Dexter Union
Mines Company stock for which $35
was bid by Attorney George L. San
ford.
The total amount of the bids was
s35,971.15. The furniture of the Car
son building brought $175. A manga
nese safe was sold for sl65. A block
OF stock OF one OF the Dexter compan-
les went for 5000 and another bunch
Of Dexter company's stock brought

OF old notes held by the bank, a
Tonopah block was sold for $40 and
a Goldfield block fr a similar amount
The Manhattan, Blair and Carson
notes, sold In a block for $40. The
face value of the Goldheld block was
almost 100000.
The bids were made subject to the
approval of the first district court
Judge Frank p. Langan
Questioned regarding the attitude
of the attorney-general's office on
confirmation OF the sales OF State
Bank & Trust Company assets Mon
day by Receiver Wildes, Deputy At
torney General Richards this morning
declared that full report OF the
"burlesque" to the court will be in
sisted upon, and that once the de-
tails are made part of the court rec
ords confirmation will be opposed,
says the Reno Gazette.
Confirmation will be opposed pri-
marialy," Mr.. Richards said, ION the
ground that the whole proceedings
was a burlesque, and secondly. on the
theory that one of the essential ele-
ments of the notice of sale. place
where was lacking. The general
public could have no denite know
ledge of the place of the sale
through reading the published notice"
Judge f. p. Langin's order for sale
directed that the property be offered
for sale by the receiver at the State
Bank & Trust company's building in
Carson City, but the published notice
made no mention of place other than
giving notice that sealed bids could
be received by the clerk of the dis
trict court, Richards says.
