ried.
Kels, who confessed he murder
ed man believed to have been Ed
Meserve, permitted his wife to bury
the body in the belief that it was
his and then disappeared, declared
he committed the crime that Mrs.
Kels might have the insurance on

Yesterday Kels was sentenced to
hang on January A.
Today insurance companies said
they would be forced to pay the
insurance money when the trap is
sprung-and Kels' purpose will
have been accomplished.
Mrs. Kels remains in ignorance of
the fact that her husband is alive
and under sentence of death.
kels, who remained calm and un-

die, broke down in his cell last
night and wept Bitterly.
1t was learned today that Kels

Demonstration in Meat
Curing at Savannah

The County Home Demonstration
Agent, Miss Tatum, had Miss Free
man, canning specialist from A. &
M. College with her for two days
this week.
A very interesting demonstration
was given at Savannah School on
January 9th, using the steam pres
sure cooker. Berpee Sealer, and
sanitary tin cans for canning meats.
Proper methods of cooking the
various meat was shown, as well
as methods Of canning with steam
pressure.
This is new phase Of demon
stration work in this county, and
one that we wish to emphasize this
wear. since great deal of meat
is lost each year on account OF our
mild winter. The fresh pork, as
sausage, liver, ETC., are canned, and
may be had fresh all the year, as
well as beef and chicken.
Splendid interest was shown IN
this demonstration, there being
teachers and members Of girls club
present.
We used the home science kitchen
for the demonstration, and from
time to time during the year there
will be other demonstrations held IN
this kitchen.

KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS
HOLD BIG MEETING

Monday evening Alpine Lodge No.
"a, Knights of Pythias held a real
old fashioned get-together meeting
at which over sixty members were
present. Many who had been dodg-
ing lodge meetings for years were
rounded up and the time that was
given them has started a movement
to get back toward the lodge door.
During the day members of the
lodge commenced to round up the
boys and by the time the lodge OPP
ened II was found that the tamale
supper had to be enlarged. Talks,
feeds, story telling and experiences
took up the evening. 1t was a real
old time gathering. A number of
wives are making inquiry as to why
II is necessary to keep a lodge ses-
sion running past the midnight hour
and the boys are telling them a few
of the stories that we're passed up
and down the line.
The Fallon standard. (Fallon, Nev.) 1920-1958, 1923-01-10

people of Carson have insisted that
1t be remedied and some of Fallon
have taken up the cry for better
ment. Fix that road and then send
out word of what we have and 1t will
in part counteract the assertion made
by Mr.. Adams and others who have
been asking you for membership fess
to help cripple your section.
Ormsby county has devoted indi-
yidual money In keeping up the Os-
terman grade to Lake Tahoe and will
spend more this spring. 1t is the
one direct road to superior Calf
ornia. Placerville Is routing tourists
over the road and Fallon should be
in position to reciprocate. A de-
mand for the betterment of the road
on either side of the dam Is neces-
sary and 1t should be made an imper-
ative piece of work.
The Lincoln Highway Forum of
recent date has this to say Of I'm
proyements west of Fallon:
The Nevada state highway depart
ment engineers recently completed
mapping and surveying the proposed
highway improvement from the CAL
ifornia state line to Glenbrook along
the shore line of Lake Tahoe. via
Cave Rock. This is the south route
of the famous Lincoln Highway be-
tween Fallon and Sacramento.
1t is reported that the new high
way will follow the old route, elm
mating curves and bad turns In the
forest, which, in view of the increas-
ing traffic, are becoming dangerous.
Some consideration has been given to
driving tunnel 400 feet in length
through Cave Rock to eliminate the
present bridge built around the edge
OF the cliff extending over the lake
and which has been maintained by
Douglas County for years. This pro-
posal has met with strenuous oppos-
ition, however, from resort owno,S
along Lake Tahoe who claim that the
bridge affords one of the most .c,nic
spots found in this beautiful region
and one greatly admired py all
tourists.
Undoubtedly, Cave Rock Ii one Of
the scenic spots at Lake Tahoe A
few years ago leading motor nag
ezlne sent a special writer from the
east to describe the Lincoln H,ghwa,
~ the Sierras and he gave 1t rs his
opinion that Cave Rock was the most
scenic spot on the entire trip from
the Atlantic to the Pacific.
The board of directors of the Lin
ccln Highway Association is expected
to consider extending some finaE,,si
aid for this work at its annual met
Ing to be held next month.
The next time Mr.. Booster Adams
and Mr.. knight come to Fallon Ia

dollars just ask them why the Vic
tory route, which cuts you OF at the
pocket, is the selection for routing

future. and which Mr.. Stranger can

ASK EXTENSION
ON OIL LAND
JUSTIE1ABLE RELIEF FROM
GOVERNMENT HEADS

Realizing that considerable oil
government, and in measure retard
progress in the oil field of Lahontan
valley, operators have forwarded to
Senators Pittman and Oddie and
Congressman Arentz a petition ask
ing that they take up the matter of
an extension on oil permits where
work has been carried on. The petit
tion sets forth the fact that consid-
erable work has been done in specific
instances, and that the extension is
not for promotion but for actual de-
velopment along the lines that are
believed to be for the best interests
in this work.
Oil concerns that have actually
performed work and hold permit
ground in connection with their par
that they have spent money in an
Honest endeavor to bring oil. They
ask for another year extension, be.
lieving that by that time the oil field
will have been proven.
In talking it over with several diff
ferent people who are directly an1
financially interested In the field,
and who are effected by the cancella-
ton of oil permits, it developed that
more than half a million dollars has
been spent In prospecting. each COM
pany carrying on a campaign that
was believed to be for the benefit of
the stockholders and the state at
large. They believe that the gov
ernment should extend encourage
ment, as one well brought in would
mean much for both the state and
government.
There is logic in the asking for
this aid extension, as 1t is realized
that much was experimental, money
has been tight and conditions in
some instances have been anything
but favorable for drilling, while costs
have been heavy owing to freight
and transportation. All of these
facts should be given consideration
and there Is reason to believe that
the government will see Its way clear
go extend time to the concerns that
have actually been working for de-
yelopment. The original permit law
was framed with the idea in mind
that legitimate oil development was
to be encouraged, not hindered. and
with an extension, such as is sought,
this broadening of view can be ap-
piled.
The corporations that have actu-
ally carried on extensive develop
ment. and which intend to resume
operations are in the main as fol-
lows: Diamond Oil Co., Lahontan.
now working; Consolidated OIL and
Potash, Fallon OIL Co, Calneva, Pio-
neer, Union Oil of Nevada, Big Four
Oil and Gas Co., Syndicate. now
working; Churchill County Oil Co..
and possibly one or two others.
The above concerns are asking for
extensions. as In each instance they
have carried on development or are
planning a renewed campaign.
