LIGHTS TO BE ON
SATURDAY NIGHT
r Long: Delay Caused By
Parts Having to be Manufactured
N. T. Jtnsen, of the elecrtic light
plant, was up from New Pine Creek
yesterday and atated while here that
Lakeview would get lights Saturday
night this week. Tha town haa heen in
darkness for the past two weeks, and
patrons of the svstem have been greatly
ineonvenienced by thia dark period. He
aaid that he has assurance that the
necessary parts which are coming from
Pittsburg, fa., would arrive in time to
have everything in real loess thia week.
The recent trouble waa caused by the
armatine coila of the dynamo burning
out, which Mr. Jensen atated had been
badly worn for some time, owing to
the over chargca the plant haa been
carrying. He said the residence district
would probably be taken olf for a night
or two, hut that the new repair would
place things In shape to light the entire
town when time installed.

LOW CATTLE RATE
MADEJNN.-C.-0.
Will Induce Stockmen To
Bring: In Cattle for Winter
Feed
In order to give the farmera of Goose
Lske Valley and vicinity an opportunity
to dispose of their surplus hay tbe
Nevada -California -Oregon Railway
has succeeded in establishing a very
low rate from southern points to Lake
view on atock cattle. The new tariff,
effective December 10, is $35 par
car for 12 car lots ormore from Reno and
127.50 from Dovle, Calif. The new rate
is agianst $62 50 aa the former price
from Reno. There ia eati mated to be
between three and five tnouHanda tona
of hay in Goose Lake Valley over what
ia necessary to feed loosl stock tbis
Winter. It la estimated that it requires
about one ton ot this hay to Winter an
ordinary cow brute. Based upon thia
report there ia auiticient - bay in thia
valley atone, to feed aoout 4000 head of
outside stock the coming winter sea
son. There is a vsat feed shortaee report
ed throughout California at present,
and it ia thought that thia liberal reduc
tion in ratea will be a euffiolent induce
ment for lower stockmen to bring their
cattle here for Winter feed.

Dear Sir: Your letter of October

Bureau for attention. In response to
your request we are sending you a smail
pamphlet on the rabbit aa a farm and
orchard pest, which contains bints for
their destruction which may prove use
ful to you. All methods of innoculating
rabbits with diseases have thua tar
proved unsuccessful. They may be
effectively poiaoned in tne following
manner:
Dissolve id ounce of strychnine sul
phate in a pint ot boiling water. To
thia liquid add a halt an ounce of borax
and a pint of thick syrup. Thia mix
ed syrup will keep indefinitely, Tbe
yrup should be poured over oats of
good quality and the grain ahould he
lett about 24 houra to take up as much
of the ooiaon aa possible and then dis

Where rabtlts are plentiful tbey may
be trapped In large numbers about al

fence of woven wire poultry netting
ia first built around tbe stack. Out
side this, and several feet distance
from it, another rabbit-proof fance ia

through which tbe rabbits miy psss

The boxes have a wire fall or grating

Mr. Donovan, woo ia recently from
San Francisco, bsa interests , in Lske
county, and noticing tue numerous rab
bite io tbis valley and particularly In
the vicinity of Paisley, appealed to tbe
Department of Agriculture for a
method to effectively kill tbem. Tbe
contents of tbe above reply to bia
inquiry ahould be carefully considered
by all farmers who are bothered by
the pesta, and if tbe fight againat their
existence is persistently carried on by
all, it will no doubt prove a solution
for tbelr permsnent extermination.

California Ducks Diseased
According to a dispatch from ban
Francicao, California game ducka are
dying by the thousand of a disease new
to sportsmen and scientists. After a
careful examination of tbe bodies of
six ducks found dead ot the disease at
Vista Lake, Kern county, the United

to make a diagnosis, but finds that the
symptoms resemble those of an epi
demic on the Great Salt Lake in which
it la estimated that 1,000.000 ducks
died.
Bacteriologiets are making further
tests on desd ducka brought from pre
serves in El Dorado marsh. In the last
stages of the disease, the birds look
and act as I i they bad been starved to
death. Th. y da nut cat and become
ao emanoiated that they cannot fly at
