Local Creamery
Increases Output

The Mutual Creamery, one of the
going plants OF this city, continues
to turn out butter that is making q
name for the project and the dairy
men. During the month two car
loads of buttor have beon shipped
out. A car went out on the 18th of
the month and another leaves this
week.
Mr.. Brown, who Is in charge Of the
plant, states that he has received
word that the new Pasteurizing sec
ton which was ordered some time
ago has been finished and will be
shipped in within a few days. 1t will
probably be in running order during
March The delay was occasioned
from the fact that II was necessary to
build the machinery to fit the plant.
With more than a ton OF butter
going out each day there is room
for more cream. This is one product
that there is no flooding the market
with, and cream checks are what Is
keeping the wheels in motion in Fal-
Ion. The creamery has gradually
built up a reputetion for its product
and the demand exceeds the supply,
which is a tip for the farmer who be-
lieves that there is an abundance of
cows for cream.
Between refrigeration. steam, box
ing. churning and the other inciden-
tails that go with a creamery. the To-
cal plant is certainly busy.

SHOOTING OUT OF TURN

A short time ago, or when the
Reno basketball girls team met the
Quincy girls in battle at the Cali
fornia town, the enthusiastic corre-
spondent to the San Francisco Chron-
icle STATED that with banners fly
ing and a record which proclaims
them basketball champions of Neya-
da the Reno girl basketball quintet
will arrive in Quincy, etc"
II SO happens that the Fallon girls
lay claim to the championship ire
spectiye of Reno, Quincy, Carson, or
any other old settlement, and on top
of this they went to Reno shortly
after the above telegram was broad
Oasted and hung up the tresses of
their Reno sisters to their totem pole.
The Fallon girls are so far away
in the lead and If there is anything
in form, literally and otherwise, they
will scoop in the cup this year. The
Reno or Quincy boosters were simply
shooting out of turn.

Ask s P. Company
To Ballast Road

Through recent appropriation for
betterment set aside by the Southern
Pacific it is stated Geographically
that much is to apply to road ballast.
AS the road between Hazen and Fall
Ion reminds the travelling public of
the rolly-polly chutes for pleasure
lovers the members of the chamber
of commerce are taking up the mat
ter with the railroad heads and ask
ing that they apply some of the
money and considerable of the bal
last to this artery of connection.
The people are not complaining as
to service over the road, in fact they
realize that the train service is super
ior to many districts and the road has
been accommodating in many ways,
both in regard to passenger and
freight rates, but the travelling pub
lie and the chamber members be-
lieve that it is not necessary to be
given a thrill a minute for sixteen
miles when ballast would correct the
sensation.
1t is believed that with the South
ern Pacific contemplating road i'm
provements over the entire system
the time to ask for assistance and
betterments is when the funds are
being distributed. 1t is therefore
the hope of the club that when COM
municated with the rail heads will
give heed.

MAYORALTY CONTEST BRINGS
new MATERIAL INTO VIEW

On the other hand many are urg-
ing Professor Beatty to take off his
coat and go into training for the
coming fight. Beatty so far has man
aged to keep out of the race but there
are indications that he will be num-
bered among those who will run, and
this should make three, all good men
and qualified.
Then there is the one surprise that
lot of the citizens are figuring on
springing and that is a lady In the
race. Many of the women feel that
the dignity of Fallon could be main
tanned by the election of one of their
sisters, and why not. They have
shown a lot of wisdom since the fran
chise and many other cities have
elected women to positions of just as
much Importance, II not more. The
City Clerk is of the gentler sex and
the county recording is being success
fully carried on by woman. Prac-
tically every county in the state has
some elective Office held by a woman
and they are making good There
fore 1t will be a surprise IL one OF
the women of this city does not step
forward and enter this interesting
local political fight.

There is going to be one of the
most interesting local fights over the
mayorslty Of Fallon that has been in
dulged in politically for some moons.
Several candidates are being groom
ed for the race that the Fallonites
are taking interest in.
Mayor Clark has already filed his
petition, he believing that with the
work on hand and the future as
planned, he can be of material assis-
tance to this city, and you all know
Cap. He is certainly active in every
thing that he undertakes. His
friends urged him to get into the
harness and he is there.
Others are circulating a petition
for the nomination of c. l.. Benadum,
one of the substantial citizens, pro-
perty owner, city councilman, and
one OF the business men of the city.
Mr.. Benadum has been reluctant to
lend his name, stating that he is sat
isfied with being good citizen and
helping on the city board. II is his
friends who are urging him into the
race as a business mans candidate
and one who will served both city
and county. So that makes too that
will face the flag when the race
starts.

further and believe that a survey
eliminating the seepage from the
ditch should be made and a perman-
ent state-sustained road should be
made to the dam, as l consider this
the one big show place in western
Nevada, In fact about the only real
venture that we can show the travel
ing public when it comes in from the
desert either from east or west.
1.-The Placeryille people heve been
staunch friends to the Carson-Fallon
section and they in turn are asking
that we reciprocate, and l believe
that the people Of Fallon should use
every effort to impress upon the
state highway department the nee
essity of improved road conditions
in this particular section.
Il am of the opinion that it will
ultimately be of material benefit to
Reno. Ii is realized that the Fallon
section does much of its trading in
Reno and the making of road lead
ing to the project is eventually water
on the wheel of industry for Reno.
| have urged the endorsement from
Reno on various occasions and l am
convinced that the stand you people
have taken insisting that Reno,
through it's chamber of commerce,
get back of just such matters as the
Carson-Leetyille road is but a COM
mon sense plan, 1t means ultimate
benefit for both parties concerned
and the state as whole. II is peo-
pie we want and We must show them
what we have to get them as fixtures.
las a representative of the Lin
coin Highway Association in a small
way, l am perfectly willing to take
up the call for this improvement,
which I consider one of the links to
the great chain that the people of
the association are endeavoring to
weld. | am going to go as far as
can in an endeavor to get assistance
from the association on this piece of
highway as well as other sections
along the road that we have been
fighting for.
II consider that the people of Fal-
Ion have made no mistake in pressing
their demand for this improvement,
as it is certainly a disgraceful sit
uation when people seeking homes in
Nevada must be told that they can
not reach the objective through pos
sibly ten miles of road that should
be given every assistance by the state
and government, it being the in-and-
out of the one successful irrigation
project within the borders of Ne
vada."
Mr.. Harrington stated that he
would be glad to meet with the men,
bers of the local chamber at any
time, and any time they are in Car
son he will give what time is pos
sible to go over plans for road work
with them and take up matters with
the Lincoln Highway Association
headquarters.

STATE OF NEVADA TO BE
REPRESENTED AT PACIFIC
SLOPE DAIRY SHOW

The third Pacific Slope Dairy
Show, which will be held probably
in San Francisco sometime during
the late summer, 1923, will be par
tieipated in by the dairy interests of
all states west of the Rocky Noun
tains. The third annual show will be
enlarged to include a large exhibit
of all breeds of dairy cattle. 1t is
expected that this show will eventu-
ally be to the western states what
the National Dairy Show of the east
is to the middle west and eastern
states.
Nevada has been invited to par
ticipate in this dairy show, and men,
bership from Nevada on the board OF
directors is desired by the new or
ganization. This is an excellent op-
portunity for Nevada to do some
effective advertising, showing the
dairy possibilities Of its rich irrigated
valleys.
The question of representation for
the Newlands project at this show
was presented to the Churchill Coun-
ty Chamber of Commerce at its last
meeting and favorable action was
taken toward participating in this
show this fall.
l.. E. Cline, who attended the Or
ganization meeting at Davis, Calf,
will solicit the dairy interests of
Nevada to participate in this show.

Little Progress Made
In Power Contract Plans
Recent Interview With Mr.. Adams
Brings No New Concessions

trip to the coast. 1t is his opinion
that the contract as II Is will be the
one that will be either approved OF
turned down by the bureau heads.
Following the conversation with
Mr.. Richardson a letter from SEN
ator Oddie to parties In this city was
received in which the senator states
that certain statements have been
made that were without authority as
far as he could learn.
1t will be remembred that a tele-
gram received from Senator ittman
some time ago went into considerable
detail and he stated emphatically
that the Washington authorities were
growing disgusted with the whole
matter. His telegram of January 25
Is as follows:
Washington, January 25, 1879
| am ready, willing and anxious to
help develop irrigation in Nevada.
From a legislative standpoint We
cannot accomplish anything SO long
as there is a wide division in the
state with regard to the project
IL this thing keeps up we will wind
up by having no development. The
interior department is getting dis
gusted."
There seems to be no quibble in
the statement of Senator Pittman.
and from recent Developments in
Washington il would seem that he.
with his colleagues, have some weight
in national matters.
Those who have been protesting
the contract in its original form have
undoubtedly done so for the interest
OF the whole project, and can such a
modification be made without loss to
the project IL is entirely justifiable.
On the other hand those who have
been banking on the enlargement Of
the project through the Spanish
Springs reservoir have fears that the
expansion will be retarded IL not en-
tirely lost unless some compromise
or modification is effected.
AS the matter now rests the power
company refuses to make further
concessions, the local reclamation
people are tied up pending accept
anoe or rejection of the contract and
those favoring Spanish Springs and
more land together with the expend-
iture OF some eight million dollars
are beginning to believe that this will
be lost to them.
