FOR WEEK OF NOV. q

Observer II. F. Alps of tho Reno
weather bureau of the department
of agriculture has issued the follow.
ing weather and crop report for the
week ending November %:
The weather during tie last week
was clear, with warn DAYS and cool
nights. 1t was ideal for stock and
outdoor activities. There was some
eloudiness on the nth, but ne pre-
elpitatlon fell within the state. The
lowest temperature at Reno was %
degrees, the lowest at Winnemucca
and Modena vas Is degrees and the
lowest at Tonopah was, 26 degrees.
The wind movement was slightly less
than normal. During storms of the
second week of the month 3.54 inches
of precipitation fell at Tahoe and
the lake level was 6.225.40 feet. The
road from Truckee TO Tahoe is closed
on account of s%nowdrifts.
Because of the favorable weather
much blowing was done in localities
where the soil had previously been
prepared by irrigation. Where ir-
rigation was not practicable the soil
was generally too dry for blowing.
The last shipment of potatoes left
the Metropolis district. Road con-
struction and concrete work went
forward without interruption.
Stock are doing well on the win
ter range in the vicinity of Montello:
roads are extremely rough. In the
Rebel Creek district cattle and sheep
are in good condition and winter
feeding has not started; potato dig
ging is completed and fall blowing
is making good progress. Ranch
work is confined largely to blowing
and the feeding of dairy and beef
stock in Washoe, Churchill. Lyon and
Douglas counties. In the grazing
portions of Nye county stock are in
excellent condition and range feed is
plentiful. Range feed is sufficient
for stock in the extreme south, win
ter grain is coming up and roads are
in good condition.

CITY JAIL OWELLER
TAKES FRENCH LEAVE

Manuel Gomaz departed hurriedly
from the city jail some time Friday
night and neglected to leave any for
warding address.
Gomaz is the name given by a Mex
lean to City Marshal Jackson about
four days ago when the officer intro
duced himself to the young man, who
has made Ely his stopping station for
about three months.
He was given quarters / ntha lodg-
ing department of the city hall and
when Deputy Marshal Bert Straud
kindly carried his bcakfast to him
yesterday morning he found a bar
in the door at the foot of the stair
way sawed and the bird had winged
his flight.
Following the breaking into and
entering of some cabins in the west
ern section Of the city suspicion was
directed to GomaZ, who was not
known to have any visible means of
support other than having worked a
few days shining shoes in a local
barber shop. He was closely ques-
toned by the officer regarding The
theft of a punchboard outfit from the
soft drink parlor conducted by Dick
House, on Aultman street. He ad-
mitted having sold a gun that came
off the board. but claimed he pro-
cured it from a friend, who is known
to the officers. The mention Of the
Mexican's name was intimately on
nected with the sale of liquor to In
dams and the officers had procured
sufficient evidence on which Gomaz
might obtain a ticket to Carson City.
His stay there would lot perhaps
have been Of sufficient duration to
interest him, but in the event of his
now being located the authorities
are inclined to the belief that they
will be able 10 arrange for his neces-
sary living expenses at the capital
of the state for a period of perhaps
ten years.

fruit he may promptly communicate
with any officer in White Pine county.
