RECORD CUP BY Is POINTS

A telegram received by Ben F.
Gillian, assistant chief, from Fire
Chief Guy Asbury, who attended the

brought the disappointing news that
this city had lost the $1,000 Ince
cup, filled with $50 silver dollars,
Pasadena, California, emerging VIC
torious this year by bare margin
of 13 points, all Of which has led
to the frequent remark that if Pasa-
dena had better fire record last
year than Winnemucca, then that
city must have had nearly a perfect
score, for losses here totalled the
ridiculous sum of $3.50. In addi-
lion to that, however, a great deal
Of fire prevention work was done in
this city by the volunteer fire de-
partment, all of which is scored in
the figures which determine what
city shall win the cup, SO for that
reason Pasadena must have bees
out to win with a vengeance.
During the convention r. B. Haw-
croft of Reno was named vice presi-
dent of the fire chiefs association,
while Guy S. Asbury :, was named
vice president for the state of Ne
nada. Pasadena was named as the
lext convention city,.

FARM BUREAU CAMP GIRLS
HOME AFTER FUN IN RENO

Chaperoneds by Mrs. G. w. Brady,
a party of five young ladies enjoyed
a trip to Reno, where pleasure was
combined with instruction at the
Junior Farm Bureau Camp at the
university farm from August to
IL. Aquilina Gastanaga, Fermina
Echeverria and Merna Fritchen
were delegates from the Paradise
Valley Sewing Club, and Lois Cal
lahan and Evelyn Foster repre-
sented the Keep Growing Club of
Winnemucca.
During the four days at the camp
the young folks listened to lectures
on various phases of farm life and
work. The lectures were demon
strated by actual experience at the
farm. Glasses in judging the fine
points of sheep, cattle, hogs and
chickens had the various animals
and fowls, both thoroughbred and
ordinary stock, right there where
they could make comparisons and
see the differences that existed.
Girls were instructed in canning and
basket weaving, in addition to other
subjects, and received experience by
actually making baskets or canning
fruits and vegetables under the su-
pervision of the instructors.
Entertainment and sports were
not forgotten at the camp. Base
ball, swimming, dancing and singing
were enjoyed.
One of the most interesting fea-
lures of the meeting was the news
paper written and edited by the boys
and girls attending the camp. Real
talent was shown in reporting the
various activities of both pupils and
instructors.
Though $50 boys and girls at
tended the Junior Farm Bureau
Camp, those in charge Of the prof.
ect reported that no incidents OF
any sort occurred to mar the ses-
sion. Watched over by chaperones,
guarded at night, nurses always al
hand day or night, in case of emer.
gency, the young folks had a royal
good time, absorbed lot of informa-
tion that they will find use for right
in their homes and on farms, talked
with boys and girls from other
towns and cities, comparing notes
on many subjects, and are better
and broader minded citizens-to-be
than when they left home.
j. w. Wilson, farm agent fol
Humboldt county, attended the
camp and was well pleased by the
large attendance and is sure that il
will result in greater interest il
the farm bureau work.
