The Mines Of southern Lincoln

Latest mail advices from Yellow Pine,
dated the 9th inst, state that the pur-
chase of the Taylor half interest in the
Keystone gold claim at $40, 900, had not
vet been contaminated. l. G. Blake of
Denver is the party it will be remem.
bered who was expected to make the
purchase. The Keystone itself, though,
is reported to show up large quantities of
high grade ore, only such as was neces-
sary for development work having been
extracted since last November. The
working force has not been increased,
but remains at three men. Mr.. Blake is
in that section personally inspecting the
country which his railroad is to develop
and may make the purchase before closing
his business there. The principal excite.
ment in that section is at Vanderbilt dis
trict, which the road has now about
reached. At Good Springs every thing
is quiet and may continue so for time.
| The weather, too, is becoming Cypress
ively warm, and claims situated an,
distance from water will probably re
csive little attention until next fall.

common in the foothill regions, but some

rocky and the sandy soils seem favorable
to the plants existence. Popularity de-

a coated bulb six or more inches below

bulb is blackened stem which has sent
forth plants on previous years. This is

numerous dead roots occur. The black

The Texas Stockman and Farmer says
there is no longer any doubt but that
there is shortage in cattle, not only in
the range States but the feeding States
as we'll. To this is due the advance in
prices, and this paper believes that beef
values will still go higher. At the same
time we do not look for any sudden rise
in values, but a good. healthy, steady
continued advance in prices, and this Ad-
vance, we believe, will be maintained for
a series OF years.
