Aus ralia is a continent of many cli- mates, and there are comparatively few products of the soil that can not be pro- duced in one or another part of it. A commission has been sitting at Melbourne to consider what vegetable products can be advantageously grown in the Austra- Han colonies. MT. Moore, director of the Sydney botanic gardens, was one of the witnesses, and he recommended the increased growth of the olive, the caper, the poppy, the castor oil tree, medicinal rhubarb, madder, rape, indigo and mus, tard

Undigested Food.

In the stomach develops an acid that
stings the upper part of the throat and
palate, causing "heartburn. 1t also
evolves a gas which produces "wind on
the stomach" and a feeling and appear
ance of distension in that organ after
eating. For both this acidity and
swelling Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is
much better remedy than alkaline
salts, like hartshorn and carbonate OF
soda. A wineglassful of the Bitters,
after or before dinner, will be found TO
act as a reliable carminative or pre-
ventive. This fine specific for dyspep-
STA, both in its acute and chronic form,
also prevents and cures malarial fever,
constipation, liver complaint, kidney
troubles, nervousness and debility.
Persons who observe in themselves de,

The Virginia Chronicle says: The
management Of the Crown Point and
Belcher mines are about to put up a
roasting furnace at one of the mills on
the Carson river. The ore from the
upper levels Of those mines contains a
large percentage of sulphur, and in
order to extract the bullion from the
crushings by the present process it is
necessary to grind the concentrates 4S
hours in the pans in order to save the
high percentage of the precious metals
they contain. 1t is thought that the
roasting process will destroy the sui.
phur. II this is accomplished, that
process will be generally adopted at
the mills running on Comstock ore,
with the exception of that extracted
from the Yellow Jacket, the ore from
that mine being comparatively free from
sulphur.

This Adams refused to do. We have

silver Peak.

The valuable Silver Peak mines will
soon be re.opened on a large scale.
Those rich ores can be handled profit
ably since methods have been improved
and transportation has been cheapened.
Many years ago when it cost a fortune
to haul load of supplies to those
mines, they were worked extensively,
but although the ores were very rich
the expense of mining and reduction
consumes the profit. As the conditions
are now changed in all respects as TO
cost, the result Of the presen. renewed
venture may be predicted as highly sue
cessful. The ores of the section are
both rich and plentiful and with every
thing connected with their extraction
and working made cheaper and easier
the Company, which is taking the mine S
in hand, undoubtedly has before it a
wide margin Of profit. Mr.. r. B.
Catherwood, President Of the New York
and Silver Peak and New York and
Palmetto mining Companies, is now
urging affairs to as early resumption
as possible. - Walker Lake Bulletin,

BernIce District.

A correspondent of the Winnemucca
Silvry STATE writing from Lovelocks
says:
The Bernice mill has been running
steadily on ores from various mines in
that district for a week past, and pro-
duced about $4,000 in bullion. G.
w. Boutwell,, owner and manager Of
the mill, is building a residence and
store at Bernice, and seems to be fully
satisfied that the camp will be prosper
Gus and permanent. About a carload
OF merchandise is now at the depot at
this place, awaiting the completion OF
the new store, which will be opened
shortly and be a great convenience to
the miners. Our mines seem to be
taking a new start all around. The
nickle mines, which were under cloud
for while, have paid up the hands,
and will shortly resume operations.

TROUBLE ABOUT SHEEP.
They Drink Jim Lyden's Water
and He sues for Damages.

On Monday Of this week Jim Lyden,
who owns little ranch near Silver City,
came into town and swore out a war
rant before Justice Blackburn for the
arrest of George Mills, a sheep owner,
who Lyden claims drove his band Of
sheep into Lyden'S ditch and let tn I'm
dritk up all the water. 1t appears
that Lyden has been on the watch for
the sheep men who pasture their herds
around his little place, for the purpose
of catching them crossing the creek
and exacting damages from them. Geo.
Buckland, it is understood, had some
similar difficulty about year or two
ago. Mills had been cautioned about
letting his sheep get into Lyden's ditch
and accordingly when he went TO cross
the little creek he took the sheep FIVE
or six hundred yards above, but the an
finals stopped what water they did not
drink for a while, and this, Lyden says,
is just cause why he should be paid
500 damages. The case will come
before Justice Blackb urn's Court today
MORE TROUBLE.
On the same day that Mr.. Mills was
arrested by Lyden, he discharged his
herder for being drunk and disorderly,
and afer going to Silver City and get
ting his money the man began to abuse
Mills. Being somewhat angry at the
turn things had taken that day Mills
struck the herder a blow between the
eyes and knocked him down. He then
jumped on his horse and rode away.
Through the persuasion Of other parties
the herder swore warrant out for the
arrest Of Mills on charge of assault
and battery. He was arrested, had his
trial Tuesday and paid fine of s45.

The sales on our market this week

sales to the corresponding date last
year. We have made extensive in
yestigation with regard to the dam
age done by frost. In some localities
the crop was all cut, while in other
sections considerable per cent. of
the crop was still on the hill. Taking
the whole dark sections of Indiana,
Kentucky and Tennessee, we believe
il would be q fair estimate to say
that not over ten per cent. of the crop
has been actually damaged by the
frost. The market has not shown
any improvement during the week.

Only one of the county committee
men responded to the call of Mr.. Mil
lett by attending the meeting called al
Greensboro last Friday to nominate 9
candidate for member of the Board
of Equalization. There being nc
quorum present no action was taken
and the three candidates for the of.
fice-Messrs. Randolph, Brown and
Priest-will run free-for-all race
The reason no attention was paid to
the call of the district chairman was
that a majority of the committeeman
did not believe they had the power 10
nominate a candidate for any office
and it is too late to hold another pri-
mary election or convention. The
matter should have been attended to
when the Congressional primary was
called.
