warm buildings. They are more con.
yenient. ms they can be prepared the day
before wanted, and in cold weather will
keep week, thus greatly tightening the
hou-ekeeper's labor. So many now cold

that variety may be had. The recipes
here given can be selected from to suit
almost every occasion.

Erect OF tho Stool, Upon N, ca,

lec' Oh inc otock Upon tn Graft.
For weeks If not months bcfor. the
opening of the recent fruit congress in
England the English horticultural
Journals discussed some of the topics
that would probably come before the
congress. Ono Of tho writer's stated that
one of tho causes Of failure of the ample
crop was unsuitable stock. Upon visit
ing several orchards no found that the
proprietors did not know upon which
stocks their trees had been worked.
Others had bought their trees with the
assurance thar they were on dwarilng
stock, but when asked what dwnrfino
stock, disclaimed all knowledge of there
being moro than one. While English
nurserymen employ three or four or more
kinds of stock, each ciaimcd to dwarf
the trees more or less. The Doucin, n
French apple, dwarfs but slightly, hut
produces handsome pyramdnl trees.
The Paradise apple produces adecidedIy
dwarfted tree or rather bush indeed, tho
English nurserymen claim that there ora
two kinds Of Paradise apples, each hnv.
Ing its preferences. There arc besides
some local dwarf stocks used in Eng.
land which, like the Paradise, are pro.
Pagated from cuttings Ordinary
orchard trees are not expected to
be dwarled, and are grated upon
''free ,tock." or cuttings of ordinary
apples such seeds being usually worked
out OF pomace. If We could see these
apples before they wero ground an
pressed TO make cider, and the tree
which bore them, we should find in both
tree and fruit the greatest variety OF
form, making it evident that lot Of
seedlings from seeds thus procured, s,
far from being of uniform character,
would present many pcculinrities which
they would imphrt to the CRAFTS upon
them. Their peculiaritics may not be SO
great as those from a regular dwarflng
etock, but they are sufficient to affect
the form, color and quality OF the fruit
and the character of the tree. We have
long held the opinion that the differences
often seen in samples of we'll known VA
rieties of apples, and which frequently
puzzle the expert pomologist, may Inc
accounted for by the differences OF the
stock used in grating. This is al ex.
ccllent topic for investigation at any OF

STILL PURSUING US.

The county officials Of Alturas
seem 10 delight in showcring upon
the fortunate denizens Of Gilmore
notices demanding payment for
taxes and licenses that they should
not and will not pay. The last
epistie of this nature comes from
the District Attorney of Alturas, as
follows.
HALEY. IDAHO, Nov. 4, 1889.
Mn. JAcoB ULRIcH-Sir: You are
hereby notified that in pursuance of
an order made by the Board Of County
Commissioners of Alturas county,
am ordered to proceed in the proper
courts 10 enforce the collection Of de-
linquent licenses: and by the refer
ence to the report made by an lnves-
tigating Committee find you are de
linquent i'm licenses which must
promptly be settled and all licenses
paid up in full by the 18th day Of No
vember, 1883, or suit will be at once
brought against you.
See Sections 1896, 1887, and 1859,
Revised Statutes. j. 4. WATERS,
District Attorney.
Mr.. Ulrich asserts that he was
square ON the license account with
Alturas at the time of the organi-
cation Of Elmore; that since that
glorious relief from the manipula-
tions of the Haley scoundrels he
has, like all good and patriotic citi-
zens, paid his licenses TO Gilmore
county, and that "the HALEY gang
can go the devil" so far as he 10
concerned.
IL the sheriff Of Alturas has been
derelict in his duties, Alturas
should hold him and his bondsmen
accountable, and not again attempt
TO raise revenue from people out
side of her boundaries.
The sections of the Revised
Statutes referred to by the HALEY
attorney do not provide that citi-
zen of Elmore county shall pay H.
censes into Alturas' treasury simply
because il is short of funds and
needs replenishing, or for any other
purpose. Hence our business men
will keep their money at home and
help to boom Little Elmore, even
at the risk of causing "our beloved
mother Alturas" TO become bank
rupt. Truly, 'the mills Of the gods
grind slowly, but they grind exceed
ingly fine" in the case Of Haley
turas.
Since writing the above several
other business men have shown us
Waters affectionate circulars which
they had received and each one
claims he has receipts from Alturas'
sheriff for all licenses due up to the
organization of Gilmore.

a FALSE aErou II.

The Idaho Mail last week an
nounced that the Franklin mine
and mill at Pine Grove h d closed
down. Surveyor Towne returned
from the Grove Thursday, where
he had spent several days engaged
in professional work, and he informs
us that there was no foundation
whatever for the Mails assertion.
The Franklin mine is being worked
steadily with force of eight men,
and is producing more and better
ore than ever before. The are stop
ing on a ledge GO feet below the
tunnel level and 200 feet from the
surface, which is two feet in width
and which assays from $40 to 1910
to the ton. The Franklin mill is
running steadily day and night, and
the mine produces more ore than
the 10-stamp mill can reduce, be-
sides having at least 80 tons of rich
rock on the dump. Frank An
dreas is superintendent, Mr.. Han
cock foreman Of the mine and John
Andreas foreman Of the mill, and
with these three capable men at
their respective helms everything
is moving along satisfactorily in
and around the Franklin mine and
mill. Mr.. Towne brought up some
handsome and rich specimens OF
gold ore which he got from the
Franklin dump.
The Gold Hill Company started
n shaft near the face of the 300
foot tunnel, but at a depth of %
feet were compelled TO suspend
work on account of the large flow Of
water. The superintendent is now
awaiting further orders from the
st. Louis Office, with the hope that
pumping machinery will be fur
nished TO enable him 10 sink deeper.
The ledge at the bottom of this
shaft is "A feet wide and very rich
in gold. Now that the st. Louis
company have mill on the ground
it would certainly be TO their ad-
vantage to show little more energy
by opening the Gold Hill mine and
thereby keep their mill running
steadily.
While at the Grove Mr.. Towno
surveyed the Franklin, yixie, Mon
roe, Buckeye, Gold Hill, Ramrod
and Mammoth claims, for which the
owners intend to apply for United
States patents.

CORRECT.

Hon. Geo. P. Wheeler, editor OF
the Bellevue Press, thoroughly
understands the situation in e.
more and Logan counties. Com
menting upon the assertion of the
HALEY Times that Gilmore tax
payers were dissatisfied" etc.,
Brother Wheeler very pointedly
says:
1t is very true that Assessor
Payne has raised the valuation of
property in Gilmore county about
100000 over the assessment of
1888, and ii is a credit to himself
and his county that he has done
so. The VIGOROUSLY loose and
slipshod methods of assessment in
old Alturas county before the divis-
ion are familiar to all. The work
was never half done. The extra
s40O, 900 in property ia undoubtedly
in Gilmore county, else it would not
appear on the assessment roll. If
in the county ii should be made to
assist in maintaining public ex-
penses. That il never was assessed
in Alturas is no proof whatever
that it never existed. The pleas
ant and playful methods OF trans
acting county business by the Hal
ley official mob was one Of the
most useful weapons employed
by the divisionists last winter. As
for the taxpayers growing and
and threatening TO dismember the
county, that is tho veriest twaddle,
and originated only in the brilliant
brain Of the pirate who meagrely
doles out the Times stipend of
slush. Elmore county is one of the
best little counties in Idaho, and we
have yet to hear of one single dis
contented resident. The same il
applicable to Logan county. and If
there is such an one. We need only
remind him that Alturas county is
within easy moving distance where
property is occasionally half as
sessed and official corruption at a
premium.

REPORTED SALE.

A correspondent Of the Kstchum
Keystone writing from Atlanta,
gives the following interesting min
ing items. We hope the purchase
spoken of is a fact, yet nothing
definite 10 known here regarding
the same:
1.-THE long period of stagnation
that has hung over this place ia
virtually at an end. I have it on
good authority that the Yuba con-
solidated have consummated their
purchase and intend pushing de-
velopment Mt an early day. The
property sold is ON the Atlanta
lode, which has an average width of
as feet. Accepting the record of
the output of the Buffalo and
Monarch mines ON the same great
lode, as q criterion, the new COM
pany certainly start out under
most favorable auspices, and as the
cost Of the treatment Of ore 10 now
at minimum, s12 quartz ore pay
ing, Atlanta should take her place
at the head Of the column. The
Buffalo and Monarch mines have q
record of three millions of dollars.
This will be better appreciated
when it is considered that much of
this amount was produced at O
time when they were saving but
40 per cent. of the assay value of
the ores. After exhausting the
higher grade ores 10 the depth then
explored, the low-grade ores were
thought to be valueless, until the
introduction of concentrators, which
gave such excellent results and 80
fully demonstrated the proper mode
Of treatment, that owners of quartz
properties are assured OF profitable
returns for their long, patient wait
ing, for there are few, If any prop
critics in the camp that do not show
ores in paying quantities. There
are many meritorious mining prop
critics here, among them is the
Gambrinus, the owners Of which,
Messrs. Majors, Gaetz and Wolters,
are erecting concentrating mill to
treat the immense body of orr ex-
posed in the above named property.
OF the various mining claims devel-
opcd and in process of develop
ment, more will be written later.
A visit to the old camp will amply
substantiate all that its partisans
claim for it. That it is destined to
be the leading producer of this to-
be commonwealth Of Idaho.
