Churchill Will Escape Quarantine

During the past several weeks a
great deal of speculation has been
rife here regarding the weevil quar-
antine, il being a threat from Cali
fornia competing sections that Chur-
chill county would be included in the
quarantine against alfalfa hay ship
ment to California points.
Last week L. II. Kent held a con-
ference with DR.. Records in Reno
laying out the entire situation to-
gether with considerable correspond
ence and urged that the state quar-
antine Office at once take up the
matter with the California authori-
ties. Mr.. Kent offered to send a com
mittee to California and take the
matter up In general conference.
That DR.. Records has accomplished
something and that the quarantine
will not effect Churchill county this
year is evident from the following
telegram appearing in the Reno Gaz-
ette of Tuesday evening:
SACRAMENTO, June 81. A.
Strong, California plant quarantine
officer, announced today following a
conference with DR.. Edward Records
Nevada quarantine officer, that the
alfalfa weevil quarantine probably
will be extended to cover one addi-

Active Work
Waits on Report
Spanish Springs Devel-
opment In Hands of
Bureau Heads

The appraisal established by the
Springs valley that will become inun-
dated through the building of the
reservoir, has been forwarded to
Washington and no further action
will be taken until the government
either accepts the proposals or re-
jects them.
Other matters are being taken up.
The right of way for the lead canal
from the Truckee to the discharge
point into Spanish Springs is being
taken care of, and within a short
time the matter of franchise for
this canal line will be asked from the
city of Reno.
j. +. Richardson, project manager,
who has personally been over the en-
tire Spanish Springs reservoir site
necessary in the completion of the
program, stated that until the federal
government makes decisions that Ii
would be impossible to start active
construction work. Ho further said
that among the next moves will be
the securing of a franchise from the
city of Reno, but as this city has been
urging the building of the reservoir
and the establishment of the ditch
lines he anticipated no serious trou-
BILE on that score. So far there has
been only minor difficulties in the
way of securing lands and other
rights that are preliminary to the
work that is to follow.

tional county in Nevada. One county
in the extreme east and four counties
in western Nevada now are under
quarantine.
Not for Entire State
Both Strong and Records denied,
however, that general quarantine
of the entire state was contemplated.
The conference was called to con
slider and recommend steps to be TAX
en- by GOV. Richardson in the prem
ises. DR.. Records also conferred
with Arthur Hebron, head of the Cal
ifornia animal industry division, rel
alive to cattle protection service in
the two states.
IL Will BE Lyon County
In view of the latest discovery OF
alfalfa weevil in the vicinity OF
Wadsworth, it is assumed here that
the additional county to be placed
under quarantine will be Lyon. Be-
fore leaving for Sacramento, DR.. Re
cords expressed the opinion that the
California authorities probably would
extend the quarantine to Northern
Lyon county. The announcement in
Sacramento dissipates reports that
California had determined to throw
blanket quarantine over all Ne
yada.

HERD TESTING GROWS

Herd testing of dairy stock in this
county every way and every day
grows better and better. The record
of the past month shows that 75
herds embracing 108S cows are now
under test on the project. This is
a gain of five herds during the month
that has passed. Others have made
application to come in.
Mr.. L. E. Cline, who has urged the
tests as a matter of protection to the
dairymen in order that they may
know what each COW is doing as a
butterfat producer, is highly pleased
over the results. The dairymen oil
the project have realized that they
are not working in the dark and the
profit of each individual COW is
known to the owner each month.

Immediately take up some of the nee
essary work in connection with paw
ing and other matters.
The question of auditing the city
books came up and the council is to
correspond with George Elder, a GER
titled auditor. If proper arrange
ments can be made he will go over
tn books.
Mayor Tedford stated that he had
been in conference with the county
commissioners regarding road i'm
proyements and believed that the two
branches of government would work
together. He reported some progress
during the past two weeks and with
other work that will be completed.
Several sewer connections are to
be made and the new city engineer
will gather data relative to this inn
portant part of the city holdings.
Mayor Tedford suggested that the
city let the scavenger contract go on
bids and that the same should be in
yited. This became an order and bids
will be asked for from July 1st.
A special meeting is to be called by
the mayor when other detail matters
will be considered.

Road Program
Helps Churchill
Five Miles of Mecadam
To be Added to
East City Line

On another page will be found an
struction of approximately five miles
of asphalt macadam surface road
east of the city limits of this city,
which gives Fallon the first roads of
this class to be constructed in the
state and adds materially to the good
road program of the department of
highways at Carson.
The asphalt surface road as de-
signed is the latest in road construc-
ton. and should it reach the expecta-
tions of the highway department it
will undoubtedly be adopted in other
sections of the state.
Under the bid form of contract
is to be let on the goth of this month
and as the road bed has recently been
graded and graveled by Dodge Bros.
the work should be finished and In
use early this summer.
This addition to the roads OF Chur-
chill county will put 1t we'll in the
lime light as a good road county, and
with the finishing of the Hazen-Fern-
ley section. now nearing completion,
the straight away east and west will
be worth travelling.
At the present time lot of good
work is being carried out by the
county commissioners and supervised
by Chas Howard on the Leeteville
Carson road. While this is an econ
omy job, owing to the small appro-
priation furnished by the state, the
showing that is being made is more
than could be expected.
BY another year, with the gasoline
tax money added to the general road
funds, this county will be in position
for further building and mainten-
ance. The proposed improvement OF
the highway from Fernley west
through the canyon is under survey
and it is expected that the highway
department will ask for bids on this
section during the summer. 1t is pre-
dicted by those who are following the
good road movement that another
year it will be possible to advertise
the fact that this county has the best
roads in the state.

Last evening at the chamber OF
commerce room a number of the re.
preventative business men and mem
bers of the club met and mapped out
a plan for a real Fourth of July eel
ebration in this city.
Chairman Clarke had a program
arranged which in general was ad-
opted. 1t calls for a parade, base
ball game, trap shooting, games
races and big dance with other fea-
lures to be added.
The question of financing was the
absorbing detail that took up most
of the evening. Carl Dodge and Ira
Kent were named as a committee to
get busy and see what can be done in
that line. They will be around and
interview all of the business inter
ests.
1t was pointed out that Fallon is
in position to give one of the best
celebrations in the state. The open

tered into the plan on a percentage

ton. Others In Field
Taking Samples

Sam Arnst, former congressman
from Nevada, who hac returned to
the mining game, spent Saturday ey-
ening in this city on his way back
to Reno.
He has been visiting a number of
mining sections and is again in the
mining field, he being one of the
best known mining engineers in Ne
yada. Recently The visited Seven
Torughs, Chalk Mountain and Quartz
Mountain districts. At Quartz Noun
tain it is understood that he took an
option on one of the promising pro-
perties and it is possible that he will
carry on some extensive development
in what is regarded as one of the
most promising sections. He also
paid a visit to Broken Hills and
Phonolite.
In speaking of mining he stated
that while the unsettled condition of
silver for the moment may retard
some Development that he has great
faith in the future of mining in Ne
vada. The fact that he is in the
field again and looking up prospee-
tive mines is the best indication of
his faith in precious metal mining in
Nevada. He reports extensive activity
in practically every district in the
state with number of new proper
ties being opened up.
Mr.. Arntz coming into Churchill
county with the idea of developing
property is one of the good signs of
the times. He made a considerable
fortune in Clark county in the zinc
mines and knows the game. He is
expected back this way within a short
time.

Parties from New York have been
inspecting the silver-gold property at
Sand Springs which is under devel-
opment by Charles Kinney and other
Fallon people.
This property has attracted con-

has been developed and considerable
has been shipped to the smelters.
From all indications there is likeli-
hood of a sale to the eastern people.
