interest to Sunday school workers,
Col. Cudlipp taking as his subject
The Folks Who Teach" This was
worth going many miles to see and
hear. An early dismissal was in or
der owing to the inclemency Of the
weather.
The only regrettable part eff the
meeting was the poor attendance, as
these meetings are of so much inter-
est to the teachers and workers and
a better attendance would mean lar
ger inspiration in the work as well as
a real help to the workers.
Attendance was as follows; KitZ-
miller, two; Pleasant Valley, one;
Grantsville, three; Deer Park, three;
Accident, one, and less than dozen

EARLY CONSTRUCTION OF
RAILROAD GOES CLIMMERING

The prospects for an early grant
ing of the certificate of convenience
and necessity for the construction
of the Wells-Rogerson Railroad by
the Oregon Short Line, were knocked
into a cooked hat this week when
E. J. Ahern, head of the engineers
of the old Idaho Central Company
and other companies which preceded
it into the field, filed a protest
against the granting of the certifi-
cate.
The granting of this necessary
permission by the interstate COM
merce commission was expected to
materialize this month some time,
but the filing of the protest means
long delay, for it will have to be
gone into thoroughly by the COM
mission before they can render a
decision ON this case. 1t was hoped
that all delay would be obviated
and that the least possible amount
of time would be consumed by the
commission in this matter, but the
filing of this protest means that in
all probability nothing in the way
of construction of this road will be
done this year.-Elko Free Press.

NEW METHOD FOUND
TO COMBAT FROST

An alternative method of fighting
frost, reported to be successful, IS
described in a letter received by
Governor Scrugham from Dominic
Bodoni, who has small orchard at
Silver Bow, Nevada, says the Keno
Journal. Frost, Bodoni says, burns
leaves and blossoms like fire, so ne
concluded to fight the fire with
water.
On the last of May Bodoni set
out smudge-pots to counterfeit an
expected frost, but there were two
apple trees that the smudge could
not cover. Accordingly, he sprayed
those trees with water and saved
the blossoms on both. In the first
two. days of June he repeated the
process for the entire orchard and
saved every tree. One little tree
had the leaves scorched and yet the
fruit was saved after a hard frost.
The water sprayed on the tree
gives up its heat to equalize the abb
sence of heat in the surrounding at
mosphere-which is the same thing
as cold or frost-and thus the heat
in the trees is conserved.
The governor wrote letter OF
congratulation to Bodoni.

LAND is PURCHASED FOR
NEW RESERVOIR SITE

Definite steps to secure title to
the land in Spanish Springs valley,
which will be inundated by the new
reservoir have been taken during
the past week by representatives of
the reclamation srvice who have be-
gun negotiations with the land
owners to purchase their holdings.
The Jensen estate ranch, of some
$40 acres, in the lower end of the
valley was purchased during the
week, according to unconfrmed re-
ports, for $4,000. About 200 acres
Of this ranch was under cultivation,
it is said, while the remainder was
pasture grass and waste land.
Prices offered for the land range
from $75 to $500 an acre, it is
said, with general average of
about $125 per acre. Negotiations
for the land are being carried on
quietly with each individual owner.
1t is expected that this work will
be finished within the next week or
ten days.
The land was appraised several
months ago and the approisement
sent to the reclamation service for
approval. These were returned from
Washington a few days ago and
it is on the basis of this appraisal
made by True Vencil, Layton Stod-
dard, Mr.. Yates and reclamation
service officials that the present
negotiations are being carried out.

SHEARING OF SHEEP
is NEARLY COMPLETED

About one-half of the wool clip
in the state of Nevada has been
contracted for, according to well
informed authorities on the subject,
iays the Reno Journal.
The clip season has practically
drawn to a close, and with the ex-
ception of few scattering hocks in
Antelope valley, near the California
inc, the shearers have completed
their work.
While figures are lacking at the
present time, it is believed that the
production of wool for this year
viii exceed that of any similar pc
riod during the past decade.
Some sheepmen have received as
high as 45 cents a pound for their
entire clip. There has been a sus-
pension of buying upon orders from
manufacturers, but it is expected
that the market will adjust itself in
the course of few days and that
the greater portion Of the clip, so
far as it applies to western Nevada,
will readily be disposed of at good
price.

$50 KILLED DURING WAR
ARE NOW REMEMBERED

PARIS.-A railroad accident that
cost $50 lives, yet remained I'M
known to the general public because
of war time censorship, will be
commemorated at st. Michel-en-
Maurienne, when Minister of War
Mignot unveils monument to the
dead. f
A trainload of five hundred sol
diers on leave, after fighting on
the Piave beside their Italian allies,
left Modane in Savory or No
vember IL, 1917. The engineer
said the train was too heavy to
cross the mountains and refused to
start until he received an order
from his military superior.
His fear proved to be founded
and his engine went wild in de-
scending into the valley. The only
effect of the airbrakes was to set
the cars afire and the train crashed
into the stone bridge near the en-
trance to the station at Sa. Michel
en- Maurienne.
Less than one hundred and fifty
soldiers were taken out, all of
whom were more or less seriously
injured. All of the others, those
who did not lose their lives in jump
ing from the cars, burned to death.
The censorship prevented the acct
dent from becoming known to the
public.
