More Dairying Urged

Notwithstanding the popular fal.
lacy that great success and prosper
ity may be attained by diversified
crops and raising vegetables for the
market, II is our firm conviction that
this policy will eventually be found
10 be a mistaken one and that large
success can only be attained through
the prosecution of the dairy interest

Turn Project Over TO Settlers
Upon the completion of the exca-
waiting of the deep drainage canals
In that portion of the project irrigat-
ed by water from the Lahontan res
ervoir, If a practical way can be de-
vised under which such portion of the
old Newlands Project. to-wit: that
portion supplied with the Lahontan
reservoir, can be segregated, we
heartily recommend that such action
be taken, and that said district of
the Newlands Project be turned over
at that time to the water users for
management and control as provided
by the reclamation law.
We make this recommendation, as
Il is becoming evident to the settlers
living on this end of the project that
many years must elapse before the
completion of the Spanish Springs
reservoir, and It is evident also that
the sooner the lands are turned over
to them. more satisfactory conditions
will prevail, as they practically oc-
cupy a similar position TO the early
colonists who said: Taxation with
out representation is tyranny"

Approves Spanish Springs

Inasmueh as all of that portion of
the settlers under the project who
are not supplied with water from the
Lahontan reservoir have no assur-
ance of an adequate supply of water
| in dry seasons, IL is imperative that
the Spanish Springs reservoir be con,
structed at the earliest possible date,
but the added expense must be to
very large extent borne by the new
lands opened up. as the already over
burdened settlers upon the project
are financially unable TO assume any
additional liability.
The fact that ... water users, rep
resenting .---..-. arces OF land, pay
| flat maintenance rate of 40 cents
per acre, imposing the burden of pay
ment of the balance of their just
share of the charges upon request of
the water users, in addition to the
charges which they should properly
pay. Is both unjust and unfair. This
| Injustice has caused the settlers who
pay the regular o & NJ charges to
be taxed many thousands of dollars
1
in our opinion is a state of affairs
unparalleled and unknown in any
other project of the Reclamation Sew
| vice.
Declare Freight Rates Uiust
The unjust and discriminating
freight rates paid by the settlers of
the Newlands Reclamation Project to
the Southern Pacific Railroad Com
pany for the past 20 years is mat
ter of public record, and we hold
that the Reclamation Service, with
it's vast influence, are eriminally neg
ligent in permitting this injustice
1t is impossible to market the pro-
duce or to obtain the necessary sup
plies on the Newlands Project for an
equal price that is enjoyed by other
communities owing to these condi-
tions, and the settlers are handl-
capped to this extent adding TO the
difficult problem of existence.

Say Officials Are arrogant

We believe that much of the en-
tagonism among the settlers them
selves and dissatisfaction in their con-
ditions has been occasioned by the
arrogant treatment received at the
hands of the Reclamation officials.
The methods of the administration
of the affairs of the Reclamation of
ficials has been wholly conducted in
the interest of the Reclamation Ser
vice and has been arbitrary in the
extreme.
A change of policy in the treat
ment of the farmers and "A more bu-
man spirit shown can only make
success possible here under any con-
ditions.
We cannot pass this report without
again referring to the excessive o e.
NJ charges paid yearly by the settlers
upon the Newlands Project which
has been previously mentioned in this
report. We distinctly claim that our
proportionate part of such charges
is excessive. The peculiar and un,
business-like method of bookkeeping
and administering that is prevalent
in all Government offices is one rea-

GARDEN TRUCK CROWN
IN NATRONA COUNTY
IS DISPLAYED HERE

An excellent example OF what can
be done in Natrona county in the
way OF truck gardening is pre-
scented in groups OF vegetables and
MELONS now on display in one of
the windows OF the Wyoming Ma
tlonal bank. The produce was
raised on the Buzzard ranch by j.
]. Mahoney.
Each of the garden products is a
picture by itself but gathered, as
they are. into groups they give one
a realistic conception OF a yard of
this or a yard OF that-such as one
often sees on the walls OF a dining
room.
Red Mcclure and Burbank pota-
toes, Bermuda onions. Hubbard
squashes, rudabbagas. turnips.
carrots. c~anteloupes. and other varie-
ties OF the good things that come
from ones garden are to be seen.
Many persons who live in Casper
and this county are OF the opinion
that good vegetables cannot be
grown here. The display at the
Wyoming National bank makes n
fallacy of that belief. Mr.. Mahoney
should be awarded n blue ribbon
for each of his exhibits.

CLAIMS BIG SAVING
IN ELECTRIC COST
Economy in Power and Light
ing by Mercury Boiler
Process Is Demonstrated.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
HARTFORD, Conn. December 12.-
Production of electricity for power
and lighting purposes at approxi-
mately one-half the present fuel cost
by the use of the new mercury boiler
process, the success of which was
recently announced by the inventor,
William LIE Roy Emmett of the GEN
eral Electric Company, has been
demonstrated before representatives
of the press at the Dutch Point
plant of the Hartford Electric Light
Company. Representatives of the
company, who have been operating
the only commercial mercury boiler
81 existence as part of the local plant,
explained the process, which was
described by them as revolutionary
and the greatest advance in this, re-
Spect since the invention of the
steam turbine.
When Consumers VIII Benefit.
How soon il will be possible to pass
this decreased cost of production on
to the consumer in the form of re-
Uuced rates for electricity was said
TO he dependent entirely upon the
possibility of producing mercury
boilers for commercial plants. While
still in an experimental stage, they
said, the boiler as a unit of the Hart
ford plant has been entirely successful.
The production of enough mercury
TO take care of the demand which
will follow the manufacture of mer-
eury boilers was admitted to be an
other problem which might enter into
the general commercial use of the
new process.
The present supply Of mercury is
almost entirely consumed for other
purposes. il was stated. However, it
was made clear that the supply of
me rCury,s once obtained can be used
repeatedly in the process.
No Scrapring Necessary.
The introduction of mercury boil
erS will not neCeSSitate the scrapping G
of the steam turbines now in use, il
was emphasized. owing to the fact
that the process not only supplies
power by the utilization of mercury
Vapur in running turbines, but also
produces surplus steam by which
steam turbines of the common type
can be operated. The mercury boiler
however, would displaCe the preSe Mt
type of steam boilers, it was said.
