EFFICIENT MAN SERVING
AS LIVE STOCK INSPECTOR

Former sheriff S. G. Lamb, now
employed as a livestock inspector
by the Northern Nevada Loan COM
pany of which Senator Jerry Shee-
han is the directing head, is back
from weeks tour of inspection OF
stock in various parts of the dis
trict in his jurisdiction.
Mr.. Lamb. because of his years
experience in growing, handling and
buying, livestock, is peculiarly quail
fed for the position he is most
satisfactorially filling, and his fit
ness for the place viii particularly
rebound to the benefit of the live
stock raisers who occasionally find
themselves so situated as to re-
quire reasonable loan advances to
give them time to shape their stock
into good marketable condition.

s. P. TO Be URGED
TO CUT ITS RATES


The meeting of the Chamber Of
Commerce last night was not "A
well attended as it should have
been, but what the meeting lacked
IN numbers was more than made mn
IN the enthusiasm of those who
were present.
A great part of the time was
given over to discussion of mat
ters pertaining to the meeting
which is to be held at Paradise VAL
ley tonight, which was celled for
the purpose of taking steps to get
an alteration of the state high
way survey, SO that the road dis
tance between here and Paradise
may be shortened.
Secretary Grady anticipates that
about twenty-five members will 70
from here to the meeting at Para
disc tonight and regardless Of what
may eventuate from the meeting
regarding the change in the highway
in the highway survey, it is quite
survey, is is certain that commercial
interests of Winnemucca will benefit
from this manifestation of inter
est in the welfare of the residents
of Paradise Valley.
Several matters of legislative
moment were brought to the At
tention of the members by Secre-
tary Grady and it was the consensus
of opinion that the next legislature
must be impressed with the i'm
portance of the LON cutoff. The
cutoff is going to resolve itself
into highway of great value, not
only to the people of Winnemucea
md Humboldt county, but to the
people of the state, as well, and
the legislature is going to be urged
to pass measure designating the
cutoff as state highway and with
that accomplished it will receive
attention that would be sadly lack
ing, otherwise. In conjunction with
this matter it was pointed out that
the fotation of a bond issue fof
the purpose of securing funds ade-
quate to the requirments along
highway improvement lines Is an
imperative need and steps in that
direction will not be tolerated to
lag.
1t was also urged by Secretary
Grady that. there should be a re-
vision of existing laws covering the
matter of providing funds at the
command of the county commits
sioners subject to utilization for ad-
vertising and publicity purposes.
Secretary Grady emphasized the
truth that it is not possible to
properly enter into an advertis-
ing and prbicity campaign under
the existing law, which limits the
levy for this purpose to one mill
and he insists that the legis-
lature be presented with facts and
figures that will justify them ip
increasing the rate to mills.
A communication was read from
the president of the Sears Land
Reclamation agency Of Chicago,
which voiced protest against the
recent action of the Chamber Of
Commerce in its espousal of the
cause of the Southern Pacific, rela-
tive to the Central Pacific un-
