JUST A SUGGESTION

Several times recently horses have
been noted tied to posts and other
convenient places while the master
Of the farm is inside toasting at a
fire. In several instances blankets
are left in the rig while Dobbin be-
comes a phantom creature in his
pogonip covering.
In some localities where a state
humane society is maintained the
owner of Dobbin would be before
Judge Jones the next morning and
the price of a blanket would be the
penalty II your horse is good
enough to bring you to town give
him some care as a reeompense.
More horses are ruined by being
stalled against a post after a warm
drive than any other way.
At one or two of the schools horses
are driven in and the lack of blank
cts is noted. It is not fair to the
creature and better or more humane
treatment can be started right at the
school itself and il may sink In deep
er It is worth considering when the
whole world shivers.

ment would no doubt relieve anxiety
on the part Of the FalIon dairymen
and would help solve the problem OF
stocking the Fernley bench with good
dairy cattle.
Some dairymen of the Fallon dis
trict are alreay interested in the
scheme and some immediate deals
will no doubt be made.
A shortage of feed in dairy COM
munity has detrimental effects more
lasting than is readily apparent
When feed is not plentiful the young
growing animals of the herd and the
dry cows are the ones that invari-
ably are forced to exist on short ra-
tions, becouse the immediate. effect
is nos noticed; but any experienced
dairyman knows that during the
first two years of dairy cows life
she must be given every opportunity
to develop II she is to be profitable
animal, also that a producing COW
during her resting period must be
on full feed In order to build up her
body for the next laetation period
You cant get something for nothing
in the dairy business. The surplus
hay In the Fernley district can be
easily utilized to offset any shortage
of hay In the Fallon district due to
over sales or short crops to the great
advantage of both districts.

CLEANING UP THE sPUDe

Gray, Reid & Company will this
week ship out three cars of inspect
ed and certified potatoes to the west
coast market. This together with a
few more shipments BY the I. H.
Kent Company and possibly two cars
by local producers will practically
clean up the spuds In this valley.
Dan Evans. local inspector. states
that all of the tubers leaving here
have been inspected and certified to
One car was shipped to . point with.

but all exports have been Of the best
variety and a good demand has kept
up during the season.
From the results OF this seasons

PREDICTS BETTER TEAM
FOR FALLON HIGH

The Record-Courier in comment
ing on the basketball game between
the Carson valley teams and the Fal-
Ion high, has the following:
The boys and girls basketball
teams of the Douglas county hign
school went to Fallon Saturday and
in games played with the high school
teams of that city met defeat. The
final score of the boys game was
10 to 2S in favor of Fallon and the
girls game resulted in a score of
A to 10 in Fallon's favor.
In the first half the boys held
Fallon to score of S-15. The pro-
jeot players after getting the lead
played a five-man defensive game
that the valley lads could not break
up.
Fallon has a strong team this year,
according to local palyers. This Is
especially so of the girls team,
which IL anything, is better than last
season.

LOCAL CONTRACTORS
GET BIG ROAD JOB

The Nevada Contracting Company.
which has been building highway
both in Nevada and California for
several years, landed one Of the larg-
est jobs on the coast last week when
the California highway commission
approved the bid of $4S0,S62 for 80
miles of highway in Siskiyou county.
Calf
The contract commences thirteen
miles north of Redding and continues
through the canyon and picturesque
mountain region toward Dunsmuir
The altitude is about 1900 feet so
that snow and cold weather Will
cause but little interruption in the
work. The route of this section of
new highway starts near the mouth
Of the canyon, crosses Pitt river and
parallels McCloud river one mile,
then crossing over the summit and
back to the Sacramento river. It is a
rough, rugged country and means the
moving of about 10000 yards of rock
and dirt per mile Mr. Berney says
they will work four steam shovels
and but very few teams. There will
be about $50 men on the job. They
are allowed one year in which to
complete the contract but Mr.. Ber-
ney says they expect to finish the
job next fall.

BY l.. q. CLINE

The predicament in which the
Fernley district has found itself thia
year is not without . possible solu-
ton. The Newlands project outside
of the Fernley district is the largest
alfalfa producing area In the state,
which is not quarantined from ship
ping into California. 1t 30 happens
that this district is we'll stocked with
dairy cattle. while the Fernley dis
trict is not. 1t seems certain now
that the Fallon district will have all
lis surplus hay sold and indications
are that not sufficient hay will be
left in some communities to ade-
quately carry the ever Increasing
number of dairy cattle through to
the next alfalfa harvest.
This Is good time for some CO.
operative effort within the project.
Many ranches OF the Fernley district
have facilities for feeding cattle, and
no doubt the owners would welcome
the opportunity to make contracts
for feeding a large number of nom
producing and young dairy stock
from the Fallon district. A large
proportion of the Fernley ranchers
are anxious to secure foundation
herds OF dairy cattle and would no
doubt be glad to exchange alfalfa
hay for dairy stock. Such an arrange

Camp Wilson
News Notes
Townsight Survey
Part of Plan

Despite the snow and cold weather
considerable progress is being made
at Camp Wilson according to reports
coming to this city. Prospecting on
the known ledges and placer ground
continues to go ahead and assays
that are being returned indicate that
this is the making of a real mining
camp as soon as the spring weather
opens.
Ii is rumored that town site will
be laid out shortly and that arrange
ments for bringing in of water will
be perfected. From those who own
claims and the leasers it is expected
that at least one hundred men will
be busy in the new district by the
time spring opens.
Recent development in the placer
belt indicates that two and a half
miles of wash will be turned over
in the quest of gold. IN practically
every hole that has been sunk to
bedrock gold in pay quantity has
been uncovered.
The interest in lode mining is alb
.orbing considerable attention, as it
has been shown that there are sew
eral properties that give promise to
furnish mill ore from their present
showing. Practically all of the work
has been done by owners or leasers
and there has been no outside money
in the camp up to the present time
Tuesday party of men from the
south left for Camp Wilson TO look
over the situation. The snow is heavy
at the camp at present and only open
of semi-developed ground can be
sampled Several outside parties are
awaiting word from owners as to
the right time to pay a visit.
The old camp of Fairview seems
to be in line for a more thorough
development session, as the new own
or, Herb Humphrey, together with
his associates are expected to start
a campaign of development in the
early spring. AS the camps are but
four miles apart and in the same
mineral belt, it will give the district
one of the largest fields under de-
velopment in Nevada.
Arrangements for a number of
houses to be erected in the spring
have been made, and with what is
now in sight and the work over the
district Camp Wilson viii be one OF
the contributing sections to Fallon
before another thirty days.

Complaint Is Ready
The complaint to be filed before
the commission has been the work
Of the eommitte appointed some time
past in consultation with Attorney
Stoddard. former Governor Boyle
and others interested in the develop
ment and betterment of this project.
It was realized that individual COM
plants would not get hearing and
that one general file, covering the
big features, would stand chance
for hearing. This work has taken
up much of the time of Mr.. Swingle,
Mr.. Yeneill and former Governor
Boyle, while the state engineers Of
flee and Governor Scrugham have
furnished much of the data that will
be used in the hopes of convincing
the members of the commission that
the project is not failure and that
the federal aid expected should be
given.

ing is $2.03, or a total of $4.S1.
Aside from this feature of increas.
ed production, Mr.. Sheppard states
that he has no trouble from sterility,
which so many dairymen find troub-
lesome on a straight alfalfa diet.
More dairy farmers should be
thinking of corn silage as a part of
their dairy ration, and should begin
planning now on an acreage of corn
planted next May.

Relief of Project
Urged BY Secty Work

WASHINGTON, Jan. 13.--Secre.
tary Work today urged the senate
committee on irrigation and reclsma.
tion to report favorably the bill
which would authorise extension oi
time for payment Of construction,
operating maintenance and water
charges on government reclamation
projects.
To Protect Water Users
The measure. introduced by Sena-
tor Phipps. Republican. Colorado,
would defer the dates of payments
that have accrued or may accrue NJ
to January 1, 1925. and provides
that amounts OF such deferred pay
ments shall bear six per cent interest
instead OF the usual penalty or one
per cent a month.
The secretary OF the interior at
present is without authority to maze
extensions or suspend payments for
the calendar year and he urged pas
sage of the bill in order to protect
many water users from the loss of
their homes.
Early Action Necessary
The secretary also asked that this
relief be given farmers with good
records, owing to the fact that many
projects have exceeded original esti-
mates and on account OF the inabil-
ity of farmers to market their crops,
high freight rates. crop failures and
other causes. He pointed out that
the irrigation season soon would
open and therefore early action was
necessary.
The Phipps bill IL declared to re-
lieve the situation now existing be.

on reclamation makes its report with
recommendation for . new reclama-
ton policy based on sound business
methods.
