will call for a milling plant, which
has been provided for.
1t is the intention of the company
to continue its development on the
vein. which has followed the forma-
tion almost to the letter Surveys
indicated that the ledge would be
cut at about the $50 mark and 1t
only required a ten-foot advance to
encounter the vein This II is be-
lieved, is the same ledge formation
that the Miller-Hunt ground has
opened up. The fact that the tunnel
gives series of backs ranging from
$50 to 200 feet makes this one of the
most valuable of the claims so far
developed in the Goldbasin section.
Mr.. Robinson and associates have
returned to the camp and while herr
were confident that they have
brought in a gold producer that will
be contributing toward the bullion
tax for this county within a very few
months.
Taken as a whole the mining situa-
ton over Churchill county is in bet
ter condition today than in many
years and with base metala at a high
price and in good demand this coun-
ty should before spring be in position
to call for more attentisr than any

November 22nd
Turkey Day
Tons of Birds Leave By
Express for Coast
Points

Preparations for turkey shipments
from this project are well under way
and from all indications the Fallon
turkey will be the topnotcher on the
coast markets. Turkeys from over
the project as a whole are In better
condition than in a number of sea-
sons. and 1t is stated that the usual
fat birds in California have not
rounded out. This is the advise fur
nished those who have been carrying
on Investigations for the benefit OF
the turkey raisers of this section.
Advise received at the farm bureau
and by the federal agricultural office
set Saturday. November %, as the
day of the big movement to the coast
BY shipping at this day it will give
the wholesalers chance to distrib-
ute birds among the retailers. This
consolidated movement will also save
extra handling and 1t will be an ac-
commodation generally.
The express company had advised
the farm bureau that cars will be
provided to handle the. birds from
this city and that the birds will be
moved directly to the coast from this
city on a through shipment basis.
This movement on the part of the
express people will undoubtedly be
taken advantage OF by shippers who
are depending on the coast market
for birds.
Some birds have been contracted
for by buyers but as a general rule
turkeys will go to the market and be
consigned by the wholesalers. Me-
vada and other local points will be
looked after through the home COM
mission houses and in some instances
the local commission men have made
arrangements to handle selective
birds for personal customers.
The estimate on Thanksgiving
shipments shows that fully 80 per
cent more birds will be available az
this time than on former years. as
the turkeys. owing to very favor
able season, have rounded into mar
ket condition faster than usual
Those who have investigated con-
ditions agree that the turkeys this
season are of a superior nature and
that more large birds will leave the
project than formerly
Some will hold for the holiday
trade and ii has been the advise ,f
the farm bureau and the federal ag-
ricultural office to hold the undevel-
oped and unfinished birds for this
later market.
The setting of the date for ship
ment on the 22nd of this month gives
the turkey producers ample time to
make selections of only the best and
will enable all who wish to ship %
do so with less inconvenience than
formerly.

Can Sweet Cream
Is Proposition
May Open New Indus
try; Fallon Largest
Source of Supply

Tuesday Messrs. r. E. Volz and
J. G Risner, representing the Para
mount Cream Company paid this city
and valley a visit in the interests OF
what promises to become a business
proposition for the dairy interests of
this valley.
The gentlemen represent a recent
" organized Nevada corporation
dealing primarily in sweet cream and
whole milk The concern is author
lied under the Nevada Incorporation
laws and Reno is given as the place
Of business.
Under a recent issued patent whole
cream is treated. not by condensing.
but by publication. canned and de-
livered the world round This whole
Product to the consumer is practical
ly the same form as it comes from
the separator. 1t is not a eondensory.
as is commonly known, but treats
milk and cream in an entirely DIFF
ferent process.
The gentlemen rounded up a mum.
her of Falion business people and
laid out their plans. 1t is estimated
the plant can run on a basis of $500
cows, and will be brought to a capac-
ity of 10000 cows. II was shown tha.
the company could pay a higher rate
for sweet cream delivered to the
plant than is paid for sour cream on
a butter fat content. and the marke.
will. they state, be higher by several
points than that generally paid for
by creamery interests.
The corporation, while II will offer
some shares for sale over Nevada, Is
not urging such sales to producers of
milk, but that such holders will nat
nrally benefit This. however, is not
the occasion OF the visit, It being a
survey of the dairy situation in this
valley.
Recommendations concerning the
processing and the results were on
hand from reliable sources, and the
Southern Pacific people in Reno have
gone so far az 10 figure on lower
cream rates to accommodate the
cream shippers and likewise make
IL an inducement. for this Nevada
plant.

Winter Lettuce
Going to Market
New Industry Proving
a Success. Exports
Being Made

At the present time winter lettuce
is being shipped from this project to
several points in Nevada, and while
this is new venture in diversified
farming on the project it promises to
become a source of revenue in the
future.
At the VIII Williams place there
is being produced and marketed some
excellent head lettuce. This expert
mental acreage was worked by a
japanese and while there Is but half
a stand it is of most excellent variety
and compares favorable with the best
produced in California.
Other places over the project have
given over small sections of ground
in this experiment. It has been found
that lettuce needs comparatively late
planting, as the early patches went
to seed during the warm fall before
heading properly. Acreage that was
planted sixty days ago is now in mar
ketable condition.
Samples brought in from the ex-
perimental farm are in every way
equal to the best of California. jap
gardeners in the Island section are
shipping and it has been demonstrate
ed that this table demand stands the
cool weather better than the extreme
heat of summer and late fall.
The patch seeded,at the VIII Har-
mon farm went in too early and most
of it seeded before It could be han
died in the local market Exports to
several sections in Nevada are being
tried in an endeavor to work up a
home or state market for lettuce and
so far results have been favorable.
With better express rates it is be-
lieved at the farm bureau and the
experiment station that this valley
can furnish all of Nevada and some
sections in California with as good a
variety of lettuce as Is now imported
from Imperial valley and other Sec
tions of southern California.

essary to continue pumping following
the recent rains and SHOWS that have
fallen in the high Sierras.
Before the recent storm and fol.
lowing the shut down of pumping at
Lake Tahoe 315 feet of water was
flowing through the Truckee canal
With the power plant using approx
mately SO feet the rest was going
into storage and the reservoir was
rising nearly half a foot a day. The
recent storm added some water to
the reservoir and there is a small
flow of water from the Carson river
to the reservoir, it has been stated by
parties coming through from Towle's
There has been some complaint
that more water is not being sent
through the Truckee canal, 1t being
contended that more water is flowing
toward Pyramid lake than is neces-
sary and that the canal is not carry
ing its capacity of water or what is
available from the river. Those who
are interested believe that every eff
fort toward storage should be made
and that the water from the Truckee
should be empounded as fast as pos
sible, as the reservoir was over 100,-
900 feet short when irrigation
stopped.
There is a considerable demand
for water this fall owing to. the cattle
and sheep that are being pastured on
the project. In some instances drain
bitches are not available for water
ing and this being transient stock Il
will not pay to equip with pumps and
wells to furnish the water necessary.
As long as power is generated at
the dam 1t is the contention of the
stockmen and others who are renting
ground for feeding and pasturage
that this water should be supplied
to them.
From appearances there seems to
be every reaosn to believe that power
water will be available from now on
and that this viii furnish water for
stock
Both Reno papers state that fol-
lowing the recent rains there should
be no further demand for pumping at
Tahoe and that the Truckee river is
coming back to its average fall and
winter flow Many springs that have
been dry during the summer are
again flowing, as most of the moist
ure from the past two storms has
been in the form of rain. and the
snow that fell has been melting and
some runoff has been reported.
The decision from the recent hear
ing involving the rights of the water
board to close down the power plant
and use all available water for stor-
age is expected within short time
as this testimony has been trans
cribed and forwarded to Washington
