BIG CEMENT cULvERT BEING
MOVED BY ELKO ENGINEERS

A year ago, when construction
FIRST started on the Elko-Halleck
road, the strentch through the Hem
derson field was laid out following
what was supposed to be the right
of-way fence of the Southern Pa
,ific railroad. After the grade had
been thrown up, and the concrete
tructures all in place, it was dis
covered that the fence, erected by
The railroad company did not fol-
low the right-of-way, and that a
section of the road would. have to
be moved over about fifty feet.
In the center Of this stretch was
!, box culvert, which had been
poured last summer, at a cost Of
over seven hundred dollars. To re-
build this structure would mean an
additional cost of about the same
mount.
The ground around the culvert
was cleared out, and the big struc-
ture, which weighs twenty-four tons,
was lacked up with the aid of sew
eral hydraulic jacks and supported
on large timbers, ready to be rolled
into its new position which has been
made ready for it. So far no
cracks have become visible in the
big structure, and it is expected
that the culvert will stand the strain
of moving in fine shape.
The cost Of moving is estimated
at not more than two hundred dol
lars at the most, which means a saw
ing Of some five hundred dollars
if the experiment proves to be a
success as it seems in fair way
to do at present.-Elko Free Press.

Resolutions protesting against the
encroachment of private enterprise
on the national parks in the western
states were passed by the first ma
tional convention Of the Izaak
Walton League of America recently
held in Chicago. The league is fight
ing earnestly to stop pollution of
running streams, to halt deforesta-
ton and to save wild animals of all
kinds, as well as to maintain an
adequate supply Of game fish. Ger
tain interests are rapidly destroying
the beauties of the streams and the
wild life in the parks, and Congress
will be asked in the interest of the
whole people to stop further inroads
by corporations Of this type.

OF DRY
ENFORCEMENT
IS SHOWN

A voluminous report on the activi-
ties Of the government in the sup
preston Of the liquor traffic and
the drug evil, was made public by
the office of prohibition for Nevada
through Captain ]. P. Donnelly,
director Of prohibition for Nevada
on occasion Of the second an
niversary of Mr.. Haynes tenure
Of Office.
The report shows that during the
period from June, 1921, to and
including March Of this year, ST.
760 criminal cases and $500 civil
cases involving alleged liquor viola
tions were begun in the federal
courts. OF these civil cases the
government successfully prosecuted
1914 and convictions were secured
in 43,905 criminal cases. Criminal
fines imposed for the period of July
1, 1921, to June 80, 1922, amounted
to $4,O41, 456.O3 and for the same
period fines collected aggregated
$2,824, 685.01. For the period July
/, 1922, to April 80, 1928, fines inn
posed amounted to $2,766,891.44.
No report on collection for this
period has been compiled.
With reference to injunction pro-
ceedings, the report says: "Cali-
fornia, Illinois and New York stand
out above all other states in the
progress of this work. Illinois takes
the credit for being the father Of
liquor injunctions in the United
States, being the first state to in
stitute injunction proceedings in IL
quor cases and to date some one
thousand temporary injunctions have
been secured and numerous places
have been closed or allowed to re-
main open on bond under per-
manent injunctions."
And the report has considerable
to say concerning smuggling, includ-
ing:
1.-THE smuggling of any contra
brand always presents difficulties,
Liquor has merely been recently
added to the list Of articles in
cluded in contrabrand trade. The
prohibition unit has had very limited
facilities for combating this situa.
ton but the coast guard and Gus
toms service have given very ex
cellent cooperation with their yer,
limited facilities. During the fisca
year Of 1922 these various agen
cies seized eighteen vessels of for
eign registery and eleven Of Ameri
can registery with their liquor car
goes. Forty motor boats o.
various types were seized for trans
porting liquor in violation of thu
law, twenty-five arrests were made
and considerable quantities Of whis
key and beer were seized"

BEST GRAZING THIS
SEASON FOR OVER
TWENTY YEARS

Cattlemen and ranchers who have
spent the greater portions Of their
lives in Elko county declare that
grazing is better this season through
out the state of Nevada than they
have ever seen it in the last twenty
years. The good grazing is not con-
fined to any one particular locality,
but is general throughout the state.
Last winter was ideal for the proper
development of livestock and sheep,
and the spring season, while it was
somewhat threatening for a few
weeks, was possessed of an abund-
ance of moisture in the form of
rainfall which, coming at intervals
at times when moisture was neces-
sary, has resulted in a most lux
uriant growth of grasses and graz
ing plants.
The hills of the county are
thickly carpeted with green, but the
abundance of grazing material is
not the only benefit that the ample
moisture is responsible for.
Sheepmen claim that the wool
this season has less shrinkage than
has ever been experienced in years
This is attributed to the ample
water supply, which not only settled
dust and thus kept the sleeps WOO
from becoming dirty, but eliminated
the necessity of herding sheep ovel
long, dusty distances to supply then
with drinking water.
Not only is the wool cleaner, but
is longer, this being due to the
favorable weather of last winter
Mild weather which prevailed during
the Landing season resulted in the
elimination of practically all lamf
losses, and although the number Of
lambs is greater than expected
there is plenty of green food to &C
commodate the youngsters as soor
as they can start eating.
The rancher and the sheepman car
look forward to a first class supply
of fat steers, calves and lambs thi:
season. Fat lambs should bring ar
attractive price this year, and there
J will be no necessity locally to put
the lambs on feed before shipping
Word from the offices of the ElkG
Livestock & Wool Commission Com
pany indicates that there is a bis
wool sale pending at the office
which is expected to transpire thi.
week. A million and a half pounds
of wool are being offered for sale
and a large number of buyers are
reported to have been busily en-.
gagged in inspecting wool from the
various clips that make up the large
amount of wool. The wool this
season, especially in the Merino ant
finer grades, is above the averag,
in quality, and there has been a fail
demand for the Nevada product

Silver has been slowly appreciat-

given has been that it was wanted

is a deeper reason.

mile and half east of Iron Point
at two o'clock this morning. The
car was cut out, but there were no
means at hand to extinguish the

held together and was pulled into
