AT. & 7. COMPANY WILL
ISSUE new STOCK
Old Stockholders Given Chance To
Take One Share For Each
Five Owned.

The offer by the A. Il. & T. Com
pany of one hundred and fifteen mill
ion dollars worth of new stock to its
stockholders is on the basis of one
new share for five existing shares.
This means that for every five shares
that stakeholder now owns, he will
have the right to purchase one share
Of the new stock at par ($100)
The offer provides fofr payment of
the stock by means of a partial pay
ment, spread over a period of eight
months; the first installment of $40
per share is due on November 1, 1922
the second installment of $40, pei
share is due on March 1, 1923. In
terest at the rate of six per cent will
be applied on installment payment
from their due date to July 1, 1928.
This basis of partial payment will
enable many small stockholders to
avail themselves of the offer.
This privilege will be given to the
stockholders in the shape of rights.
If a stakeholder owns less than s
shares (the number necessary to en-
able him to purchase one share of new
stock) he may purchase from any
stock broker sufficient rights to give
HIM a total of five. If the stockhold-
er does not desire to purchase add.
tional shares, he can sell his right tc
any stock broker.
In view of the present market price
of the stock, about $121, per share
the privilege to exising stockholders
to purchase this stock at par is a fine
opportunity for an additional invest
ment, which probably cannot be founc
elsewhere in the market today, whel
we consider both safety of investment
and rate of return.
The purpose Of the new stock issue
is to provide funds for the extension
of the property of the Bell system tt
take care of additional business.
All such industries must secure
from time to time additional capital
either by sale of stock, bonds, OF
short term time notes.
The fact that the Bell system today
is able to find market for one hun
bred and fifteen million dollars OF
stock is a very striking indication OF
the strength of the Bell system and
it's high standing in the investment
market.
The money secured by the issue of
this stock will be used for extensions
to the system as required and will add
to the earning capacity of the Com
pany.

MANY LOSE LIVES
AT RAILROAD CROSSINGS
Carelessness The Cause. R. R.
Co., Cites Many Cases OF
Negligence.

inspectors of the Pennsylvania
lsailroad have completed another
check upon automobile drivers at Sc
lected highway crossings in Pennsyl-
:ania, New York, Delaware. Mary
land, and Virginia, to determine the
extent and character of carelessness
displayed in driving motor cars over
railroad tracks. The facts in 831 spe-
:itic cases of gross negligence have
tcen compiled and analysed.
The following forms of careless
driving were noted:
Failing to look in either direction
for trains.
Disregarding the stop signal of
crossing watchmen.
Driving under crossing gates in
front of trains while gates were be-
ing lowered.
Running on crossings before stop
ring, not having car under control.
Sailing on the tracks.
Stopping cars on crossings and
turning around on the tracks.
Paying no attention to the loco
motive warning whistles.
Racing automobiles across the
tracks to beat trains.
At one crossing, during period CT
II hours, 73 cars, bearing license tags
from five different states, averaged
81 miles per hour when running a.
cross the railroad tracks and in two
instances they were making almost a
mile minute.
At another crossing 10 new and
inexperienced drivers were observed,
Is tried to cheat" other automobiles
across the railroad tracks and one car
was driven rs miles per hour in the
Clark without lights.
1t was not possible to tell how many
cars had defective brakes, but four
recent accidents at crossings on the
Pennsylvania System were ascertain
ed to be due to this cause.
The Pennsylvania Railroad system
is working in cooperation with the
American Railway Association to re-
duce the fatalities and other accidents
occurring at grade crossings. Seven
thousand lives are lost annually in
the United States in mishaps of this
kind. The railroads of the country
IRE at present conducting Careful
Crossing Campaign" which started

Of urging the American people to

NEVADA COUNTY ONE OF

Are you proud of the cows /,

by the United States Department ~

thus see at glance just how tn,
cows at home compare with thos i,
any other part of the United Ctates,
The map shows the counties
have cows that average more than
6.020 pounds of milk year. Three
of these counties are in Washing
ton, while Oregon California, Ne
vada, and Texas have one each.
The exhibit also shows an ANALYSIS
of the census figures made by the
Department of Agriculture, in
which it is brought out that the
states which lead in average pro-
duetion per COW are those in which
the highest percentage of dairy
oulis are purehred. The states are
marked off into four groups ac-
cording to the production of the
cows. Those in the first group
have an averge production of A.
i27 Pound of milk year and 42.5
per cent of the dairy bulls are pure
bred. In thes fourth group the
average production is onely l.
SOC pounds Of milk and only IL
per cent of the dairy bulls are
purebred. In the first group there
is one purebred dairy bull to every
10 dairy farms, while in the other
groups there is only one to every
80 dairy farms.
The 4S state are arranged in the
order of the percentage of dairy
bulls purebred. Arizona, where the
dairy business has been of recent
development, is at the top Of the
list, with 81 per cent.

JAMES WENT UP AND THEN
CAME BACK DOWN FASTER

This is a story of venture in
aviation which proved disastrous
for two persons. 1t happened on
Monday, says a MERGED paper;
Jimmy Barton, romatic, living at
the MERGED hotel. had ambitions to
be an air pilot. He craved to glide
in the air like an Eddie Ricken-
hacker or Rene Fonek.
For the past several months Jim
has been associating with ayiators
at the Chester Clark Aviation Field
here. He has been helping them
dust off the wings of the planes and
grease the ball-bearings, and put oil
and water in them, and the like but
that is about as far as his expert
ence with airplanes and flying had
gone. when
Yesterday afternoon, when the
field was deserted of all the pilots
and even Mr.. Clark owner and
manager, had left, jim strapped
himself into Clark's private air
plane, a Curtis flying beat, with an
OK engine, frightened the leather
helmet about his ears, adjusted the
electrical switches, grabbed few
levers and pulled at them, then
manipulated the control.
The series of mechanical adjust
nents hoisted Jimmy aspirant ayia-
.or of Mother Earth. The plane
SCARED to height of seventy-fve
feet, then made a nose-diye to the
ground. 1t was practically de-
molished.
Jim also received a few injuries,
His left leg was fractured, he suf-
fered broken collar bone, a few
ribs were torn out, he was in
ternally injured, and received con-
tusions of the head and bruises and
decorations about the face and
body.-Mason Valley News.

HOME BOY PLAYED
GOOD FOOTBALL

RFNO.-A Lowry of Winnie
mucca. "Chet" Scranton of Elko,
and BILLY" Hug of Tonopah, play
ing on the winning Nevada team
against the st. Mary eleven Of
Oakland, stand out as the salient
features of Saturdays play, Al
Lowry putting over the first touch
down for the second time this
season in a q to - score.
When the Saints, led by Cap
tain "Stonewall" Black, quarter
back, broke through the Nevada
plays for Black to make two field
goals from the 80 yard line in the
first quarter, the situation looked
disastrous for Nevada, with a score
six to nothing in favor of the visit
ing team when the gun ended the
first quarter.
With the opening of the second
quarter, Nevada showed improve
ment although the offensive failed to
work owing to Blacks maneuvers
for st. Mary's, but with a series of
gridiron plays and st. Mary's be-
ing penalized five yards, "Bill'
Church passed to BILLY" Hug who
worked through eight yards, faxed
run around the right, while
Scranton plowed through the left
tackle to add Is yards gain. A
second forward pass PLAYED the ball
in Church's hands who made an
other 10 yards, and Scranton fol
lowing up the ball on the five yards
line. Lowry then put the ball over
after boring through the solid st.
Mary's line. With the rest of the
quarter a series Of seesaw plays,
the score stood: Nevada, 7; st.
Mary's, s.
Aften opening plays that resulted
in Grant of the visiting team max
ing a 35-yard run down the field,
the most spectacular play Of the
game was staged when Black faxed
a forward pass to the left and then
shot the bail to Murdoch, who ran
down the field to plant the Saints
only touchdown. The score then
came: st. Mary's, 10; Nevada, 7.
Black kicked to Scranton. With a
series of fumbles marking the next
few minutes Hug finally got the
oall, making the second touchdown
for Nevada. When the Nevada
backs got IN action Lowry again
made the required yardage aided by
Hugs squirting through for II
yards.
Lowry then had the chance to re.
peat his previous play and landed
the third and last touchdown fyr
ais team.
The last quarter was marked In
the fine defensive work of the Ne.
gada men, who completely blocked
10 OF the IL forward passes started
by Black. The score was; Nevada

A DRY LAND GRASS THAT is
WORTH TRYING OUT HERE

Forage crops introduced into
Porto Rico by the Federal expert
ment station have given great i'm
petus to cattle raising on the is
land, according to reports received
by the United States Department of
Agriculture. The station has found
the velvet bean and the Cortalaria
successful crops to furnish concen-
trated feeds, as well as valuable
for soil Improvement. Napier, or
elephant grass, has proved the best
of the introduced grasses for rough
age, although Guatemala grass does
well on dry land, and a pasture

Kissing for DOGS.

Indians are very fond of dogs ard
around every wigwam, tepee. hut or
wherever they. may reside, there are
always from 6 to 20 wolfish dogs. An
Indian dog loves an Indian and hates
whse man with equal intensity
When a white man drives through an
Indian village and sees dog by the
wayside, his natural impulse is TO
whistle in a friendly way Bun the
instant he whistles the dog turns tail
and is out of sight quickey than If he
had been kicked An indian never
whistles to his dog when he wants
the animal to come to him; he places
his tongue against his teeth and
