REPUBLICANS W00IN3 NEVADA J
Representatives of the Republican National committee have r -eentlv
been visiting this state and more are coming. Their purpose,
as announced, is to perfect a complete organization with the view of
putting Nevada in the Republican column in the elections to be held
the coming year. ' " , .' :
That they are working not without hope nrnfjt be admitted; not
because Nevada has a surplus of Republicans, for 'that is not the fact,
but they have the faculty of organizing and voting as a unit. On the
other hand, he Democrats, while holding a fair majority of the
state's total vote, are unorganized, not altogether pleased with the
way things are and have been going and have lost interest.. Too much
favoritism has been shown in certain quarters and too little attention
paid to the fellows, men and women,' who supply the votes. With the I

"I doesn't do any good to hurry unless you do something when
you get there," says a man of philosophical mind. ; -
Do you get it? , . ,
Useless for you to hurry to your place of business if you do not
get down to work for half an hour after you arrive.
Fifteen minutes more at home planning the day's duties may
mean time saved, and not so much hustle and bustle. ; .
It is useless waste of .energy to feverishly start some under
taking and then, when half completed, have to 'undo a lot of it or
waste time getting out of a difficulty whieh came, about as a result
of your not thinking enough before starting..
It is better to start slowly at a task well planned -than to work
rapidly at one which has no definite plan. -
Think five minutes and work three is a better rule than constant
labor for five or ten minutes and no thought.
It is useless to try to make your hands and feet travel as fast
as your brain, so apply your thinking powers and save your feet'and
hands to do well-directed labor and further your own plans.

Expert chemists are again directing attention to the possibilities
, of alcohol as a power producing fuel in connection with the internal
'.combustion engine. ' 1 -
' The fact was proved conclusively some years ago, and "Tama
' Jim" Wilson sponsored the "passage of a law by congress to permit
. the manufacture of and use of denatured alcohol on farms. Internal
revenue officers had it so hedged about with restrictions and regula
tions that farmers did not care to bother with the process. Now that
gasoline has soared to a new height and prohibition has come to dis
turb the use of alcohol as a beverage, it may be used to drive engines;
For the. moment the discussion turns, on probable sources of alcohol,
and on the distillation of wood waste. ; :
! Experience in tJermany before the war showed that sufficient j
Quantities for ordinary purposes could be had from farm waste, so!
that with a proper apparatus it was possible to make all that Avould
be" needed" from materials jiow thrown away. The present cumber
some law could easily be amended in "such, fashion as will give the
' farmer who cares to do so a chance to make his own power fuel at j
home. Omaha Bee. ',

Query. I have a 'quantity of old paint
on hand. Can I use it for the first coat in
repainting my barn?
Answer. On no account .should old
paint which has become fat be used
for priming either old or new work.
Old paint in that condition is best used
on a fence, brickwork or tinwork. If
you value your barn sufficiently to
paint it, do It the justice of a good job.

Copied from Reno Gazette of Wednesday, February 12; 1919 fa
CARSON .CITY, Feb. 12. What some members of the joint com
mittee on ways and means and claims of both houses assert is a surpris
ing condition relative to the comparative cost of food products in Reno
and Carson was presented by the committee's investigation of the cause
of the deficiencies existing in various state departments, to take care of
which a bill carry ing an appropriation of over.$50000 is pending .in the
assembly. , . .-
When Warden Henrich appeared before the joint committee to ex
plain the deficiency existing in the prison fund he produced data show
ing that cost .of material used in conducting the affairs of the prison -had
advanced 40 per cent during the two-year period for which the ap
propriations made by the legislature of 1917 were made. The warden
purchased his supplies from Carson City merchants.
Dr. J. J. Sullivan, superintendent of . the S'.ate. Hospital Jor Mental
Diseases, was before the committee Monday and' proved'.' to 'the satis
faction of the members of the committee that' prices on supplies for his
institution fcad increased '100 per cent during the 'last two years. Dr.
Sullivan explained to the committee that he' purchased his supplies in
Reno. . . . - , . " r .. . .. ,. .. - .-
"I cannot see any reason for the difference, in prices in Reno and
Carson on the same commodities," said one member, of the committee
yesterday. "If anything prices in Reno, should be a shade lower than in.
Carson. In all probability the prices, charged the individual consumers
in Reno would be somewhat higher than those charged Dr. .Sullivan be
cause he buys in bulk, while the individual consumer " buys at retail
prices." - ' - -v j . . :
