FINE APPLE SPECIMENS

Apples this year are not a failure
on the r. J. Swope farm, on the con
trary they are a decided success. The
orchard is bearing up to its former
standard and this city Is receiving
some of its supply from the swope
orchard.
Specimens of the 20-ounce pippins
we're exhibited here yesterday and
every apple was perfect, rich In color
and such fruit as is generally found
at the county fair
The other apples on the farm ar,
ripening and promise a full crop
This Is one of the few places on tn,
project where a wind break was es
tablished along with the orchard ant
where many orchards were ruined b.
frost this spring the Swope place
escaped. The object lesson can be
taken to heart. Practically the en-
tire apple crop is spoken for In this
city and vicinity.

LOCAL HAY GROWERS
ADVERTISE FOR MARKET
By l.. E. CLINE
Government Agriculturist


1t is such an unusual thing for
farmers to advertise their wares that
it IS not an easy matter for them to
appreciate the benefits to be derived.
Practically all commercial enter
prises 60 out after their market and
by advertising methods endeavor to
attract the market desired. Farming
industries spend perhaps a smaller
proportion of their gross income for
advertising than any other class of
business. Farmers are too content
to accept such markets as come t.
them and hold their products II no
market comes.
The Newlands project has one of
the finest yields of hay in its history
this year and practically all OF the
stock feeding districts on the Pacific
slope are very short of feed. Hay Is
a good price and the demand Is good
elsewhere. We should h:ve an ex-
cellent demand for our surplus hay,
but how are others to know of our
supply unless we get the information
to them? We have a big opportunity
this year to attract attention to New
lands project. A little money spent
now for advertising to attract dairy
men, sheep and cattle feeders,
should enable us to dispose OF our
surplus hay at a good price and at
tract many permanent residents
Twenty-seven hay growers have
already contributed a cent a ton for
each ton of hay they have for sale
to the Churchill County Chamber Of
Commerce advertising fund This
money is to be used exclusively for
advertising our surplus hay and at
tracing feeders. Considerable ad-
vertising has already been sent out
and some inquiries have been re.
ceiyed.
Farmers with hay to sell should
avail themselves OF this opportunity
to sell their crop and boost their
community.

Hay Movements Improve
With Several Large Sales
Douglas-Renfro Dispose OF 5000 Tons; Other
Sales Recorded; Several Stock Ship
ments Come This Week

Another train load of cattle, most
ly feeders, is expected from Susan
vile the latter part of the week and
they will be taken to pasturage over
Tie project.
The recent movement of hay /
attributed largely to the advertising
campaign by the chamber of COM
merce and the farm bureau. Mang
inquiries continue to come from peo
nle over the entire west and 1t il
more than probable that a number
of settlers will find locations within
tLis valley.
The prevailing price for hay has
ranged from $3.50 TO SIS per ton,
owing to the feeding conditions,
water and pasturage In some in
stances it has been the lower price
as the hay will have to be moved to
accommodate the stock. The recent
sales have brought about a better
feeling generally over the project as
hay for the past three weeks has not
been moving as anticipated. In many
instances the Californians have put
eff buying as they hoped for early
rains to help out their own pasturage
situation The past month of con
tinued drouth has brought about a
change.
1t Is realized that should a wet fall
occur in California that feed will he
sufficient to tide over many sheep
and stockmen who otherwise will
have to seek outside feed
From present indications there
will be no surplus hay left in this
valley and there IS practically none
In any other section of the state.
A considerable quantity of hay has
been sold to Nevada farmers. as
Mason and Smith valleys are short
Should the drouth continue another
thirty days every ton of hay In this
valley will have been disposed Of and
II seems that the Californians will
take the choice OF the project pro-
duction.

LEAVES FOR EAST
ON MINING BUSINESS

Mr.. and Mrs E. NJ. Dawes, who
recently arrived from Los Angeles,
left Sunday evening for Minneapolis
on a business trip Mr. Dawes. who
has been managing the Chalk Noun
tain Silver Lead Mines Company
property and who has practically
placed II on a mine basis, is goins
east to meet with the major stock
holders OF the company.
During a recent visit to the prop
erty by some OF the eastern stock
holders II was decided to sink a
double compartment shaft on the
property. This Is following the line
OF advice as given by Engineer Sic
bert. who has made a number of ex-
aminations of this property. Mr..
Dawes expected to return within 4
few weeks at the utmost and start
the big work that is now planned.

ver-lead ore is now at the depot and
Will leave for the smelters this week.
As this is but one OF a number of
such shipments ii tells the condition
at the property better than words.
Development is being carried on IN

there Is more ore In sight in the
mine Il IN at any time in its history.
This has been the one continuous
shipping property in this county dur

REV. PETERSEN TRANSFERRED

In the departure OF Rev. Petersen

Petersen took an active part. His
broad minded views have made
friends both for himself and his

has resulted In several organizations
that are of community worth. His
activity resulted in the present excel
lent gymnasium at the Methodist
church and has been one of the per-
manent buildings to be added in the
past year.
1t is a certainty that wherever
Parson Petersen pitches his tent thpt
lie will have followers and he will
make many fast friends outside of

must have been appreciated, as 1t is

The frost of Saturday and Sunday
practically ended the season of 1924
of cantaloupes. 1t is figured at the
farm bureau that better than 80 per
cent of the crop had been disposed OF
and the Weaver people had practic-
ally closed Its packing season.
Total shipments from the entire
project will run close to 200 cars,
which is in excess of the first esti-
mates. The favorable season con-
tributed largely toward the ripening
of some of the late plants and in
every instance some melons were
shipped.
The question of profits from the
last shipments is still in doubt az
they will go on a late market and
weather conditions control to a large
degree. Late word received at the
Weaver office in this city indicates
that fair prices are being secured
and while the profits per crate will
not be as high as was first indicated
the seasons crop Will bring in some
fair returns. The crop, considered as
a whole, has proven success.
Those who conducted local ship
rlents and disposals came out of the
seasons work with excellent profits
This market is to a certain extent
limited and large acreage must be
handled through some commission
house. such as the Weaver people.
The local office is to be maintained
until the close of the books and all
shipments disposed of. This will
mean checks issued here direct to

growers at the conclusion of the sea
sons sales.
1t is understood that the Weaver
people will come In another season
and will look for larger acreage, as
1t has been shown that they can
handle many times the cars with
practically the same office force and
will only have to add men at the
shipping points.
The work of gathering seed Is un-
der way and several growers on the
project will dry seed for export.
There is o probability of more ex
tensive growing of other melons that
were experimental with here this
year. The II B melon and several
other early ripening varieties have
shown that they stand shipment as
well as the Heart of Gold and do not
split or crack as bad. Experiments
on the II B melon on the bench were
most satisfactory as were several
patches reared below the bench.
The II B melon was grown extern
sively in Imperial valley this season
and 1t reached the eastern market in
the best of condition. AS that Sec
tion exports some 1900 cars their
proofs can be taken as something
worth while.
The next couple of weeks should
wind up all of the sale3 in the east
and the profits as a whole on the
eastern exports can then be figured.
At the present time the net shows
something better than so cents per
crate, which Is somewhat lower than
first indications or expectations.
