TIN MINES IN AMERICA.
Where the Most Important are Located
and the Quality Produced.


From the Engineering Journal.
The tin bearing lodes are for the
most part on the western side of the
Black Hills, among the older schists,
and are of very different degrees of
value. Some of them are OF enormous
thickness, exceeding 100 feet, but the
cassiterite is not equally distributed
in them. 1t is found in strings and
patches and sheets, and many of the
veins and large parts of others contain
none. They dip into the ground at
high angles-usually about 70 degrees
in this respect resembling the lodes
of Cornwall, and their working will
consequently be very similar. I'm
mense quantities OF cassiterite exists
in the hills. The granite veins are
very numerous and large portion
of them are more or less stanniferous.
But the percentage, as elsewhere, is
very low, about equalling the average
yield of the Cornish mines at present
in operation. 1t is not easy to give
figures, but sanguine estimate
might put both at 2 per cent, and
probably in order to attain this some
of the poorer mineral must be ex-
cluded.
The granite OF the Temescal range
in San Bernardino county California,
has yielded small quantities of tin
ore and few rich specimens. In
1861 considerable exploration was
made in the region and this has re-
Gently been renewed. But so far
as is known the conditions of the
occurrence of the mineral do not
differ from those obtained else
where. Maine, Alabama, Massa-
chusetts, Virginia South Carolina
have at various times yielded
show of cassiterite and always in close
connection of with primitive rocks.

For instance, Mr.. Jacob Knapp of Upton,

This remedy effectually counteracts
the tendency of the disease TO result

care be taken to avoid exposure when

Nevada's Fruit.

From the Carson Tribune.
Farmers are commencing to realize
the fact that Nevada soil is equal to
any for grain growing, and that for
the production of fruits of various
kinds our soil will in few years
compare in quantity as it does at the
present time in quality. During the
past season apples and plums have
been in such abundance that mar
ket could not be found for them at
home, and hence the ranchers have
dried thousands of pounds and made
cider of the remainder, and in point
of quality neither could be surpassed
in California or any other country.
Nevada apples cannot be surpassed
in size or flavor in any part of the
world, and as to peaches, wherever
they escape the early frosts, not the
garden of Eden ever produced finer.
Quite number of farm owners in
the several valleys have become con-
WINGED that grape culture will prove
successful and have within the past
twelve months started quite large
vineyards and the chances are that
next summer the California grape
growers will be compelled to give
Nevada the palm for that as well as
other fruit, Bartlett pears among the
number. Such being acknowledged
to be facts what have land owners in
our much decried State to fret about?
We raise the best hay on the Pacific
Coast and the world cannot surpass
Nevada in the quality OF her grain
products, and as to sugar beets we
stand on the very apex of superiority,
and before the half of another decade
shall have passed away the tide of
immigration will turn in our direc-
ton, and every acre of arabic land
will be under cultivation and a sage
brush tree or bush be treasured as an
emblem of former days and kept
merely to remind old timers of the
aroma it used to send forth after a
summer shower. Good times are
coming, wait little longer.
