HEAVY DEMAND FOR LABOR
IN ALL PARTS OF NEVADA

According to the August report of
the L. S. department of labor, JUS
issued there is strong demand in
Nevada for agricultural labor and
experienced metal principally cop
peri miners. with supply insufficient
Copper and other metal mines con-
tinue to increase their forces, par
tieularly at Gold Hill. where 100
additional experienced metal miners
are needed, and also at McGill whose
copper mines have added over 300
workers during the past 30 days, and
are still in need of 100 additional
experienced underground miners and
Is carpenters. In addition to mine,
highway surfaeing and paving pro-
jeets under construction, six more
will be under way within 30 days,

FISHING SEASON
CLOSED SUNDAY

Fishing season in Nevada closed
last Sunday and during the day a
large number of fishermen were out
to secure a last catch from the Car
son river and tributory streams. The
water was muddy, but despite this
nnfavorable condition, very good
catches were reported.
Fishing in the Carson river dur
ing last season was better than it
has been for years and was a result
eff the stocking of young trout which
has received considerable attention
in late years. This work. it is
understood will continue and fishing,
if anything, will be improved during
coming years.
During past years the law making
il necessary to procure a license to
fish has been widely violated in this
section However, the activity of
the Douglas county sportsmens
club has been of exceeding benefit
during the past season as is evil
deneed from the fact that more fish
ing licenses were sold during the
present year than ever before.
