Tho Pine Grove Company Rcsame
Oprrations--.Dixie Isema.

DEAR 0Lp BuLLETiN.--Do not
think have forgotten you. | have
been rambling through the hills
this summer and remoteness from
the p0stoflice was the cause Of my
non-appcaranee in your columns.
A few days ago | returned to
headquarters at Pine Grove and am
now busy building a hole in big
mountain on Deer creek.
During the summer | have been
to the new mining camp Of Dixie,
about 20 miles south Of here, and
was we'll pleased with the prospects
there. There has been but few pros
pcctors in that district yet, and
none of the locations have been
worked tn a greater depth than 20
feet, but they all look remarkably
well for the amount of work done,
and at no distant day Dixie is des-
tined to take place in the front
rank Of first-class mining camps.
This is not the Dixie that received
such black eye where Grant and
Sherman, with about half million
others, were prospecting some 26
years ago.
The Gold Hill company at this
place have resumed work on their
mine. A force of men are now
cleaning out the tunnel, and others
will be added so soon as room can
be made for them. However, it is
believed that the ex-superintendent-
contractor need not apply.
George Crandal has finished cut
ting and battling his hay. He cut
about $50 tons this year.
Recently we have had fine rnNns
here--something very unusual for
this season Of the year.

Louis IRVINE, an old resident oil

day while bathing in the Boise river.
Potatoes are selling in California
at five cents per sack. The Sacra-
mento Bee says; Owing to the ex-
tremely low prices Of potatoes, thou
sands of bushels in this vicinity will
not be gathered. 1t is said that in
the Pearson district alone 10000
bushels will be allowed TO remain

II is strange, yet is often the case
that good lodes Of rich ore have
