Mohave County miner., 1893-11-04

The following is full text Of the Voor.
hees bill repeating the purchasing clause
Of the Sherman law. By its enactment
it leaves in full force the Law OF 1873 and
leaves silver on the same old plane as
the treasury notes before the resumption
OF specie payments:
That 40 much Of the act approved July
4, 1890, entitled IAN act directing the
purchase of silver bullion and the Issne
Of treasury notes thereon, and ior other
purposes." as directs the secretary of the
'TrIsury to purchase 'rJm time To time
silver bul ION to the aggregate amount
4,500,000 ounces, or so much thereof
AZ may be offered in each month at the
price thereof, not exceeding one d)llar
fnr 81 % grains Of pure silver. and to
s-ne in payment for such purchases
treasury hotes vi the United States, and
the same is hereby repealed.
And it is hereby declared TO he the
poncy Of the United States TO continue
the use OF both gold and silver into
standard money and TO coin both gold
and silver into money OF equal intrinsic
secured through international agreement
or by such safeguards OF legislation as
will insure the maintainance of the parity
in value OF the COINS OF the two metals
and the equal power OF every dollar at
all times in the markets and in the pay.
ments OF debts. And it is hereby fur
ther declared that the efforts of the
government should be steadily directed
in the establishment Of such a safe sys-
TEN OF bimetallism as will maintain ST
all times the equal power Of every dollar
coined or issued by the United States in
the markets and in the payments OF
debts.
This law in reality destroys absolutely
the use Of silver as money metal and
leaves it in the same position as that of
pig lead. The reference to the party
pledge to bimetallism is quite ridiculous,
coming, as it does, from men wholly I'M
bued with the single standard idea.
Silver is now as useful az money as the
sea shells of past ages.

An Old Miners Discovery.

GRASS VALLEY, October 30,-Another
ledge has been discovered in the Crown
Point mine. The discovery was made
today by John f. Polkinghorn and James
Youton, two experienced miners. The
ledge is about sixty feet northeast of the
main ledge, and is three feet thick, show
ing free gold, sulphurets and Ealena Mr..
Polkin1horn hrst discovered the apex OF
this vein over forty years ago, in the
spring of 1853, while working in the
gravel diggings on Wolf creek. At thai,
time little attention was paid to quartz
mining, and like many other miners he
passed it by carelessy. While living in
the East he frequently thought Of the fine
prospect and determined to embrace the
first opportunity OF developing the ledge,
Finally he formed partnership with
Mr.. Youlton. and they entered into con-
tract with Mr. Guthrie, the owner, to
make the discovery. and succeeded IN
finding the ledge inside Of three davs.

with a good supply of cream in the
fall and winter they could realize larger
profits than in summer. Butter IL high
then. and all that thoy could mako could
be sold for a high price But tho trouble
is they cannot get enough cream from
their regular patrons TO make IL pay 90
keep the creamery open. IL Is a business
question with them, aud so IA the only
solution TO II they hayo 20 close from
three TO six months every year.
Now this 10 simply another reason
why more attention should DO given 10
improved winter dairying II all tho
dairyincn could supply moro cream for
tho crcamcries than they do now through
tho winter their business would never
stop. Tho majority of the cows are
simply summer animals. They yield
good milk and cream during spring AMI
summer, hut shut down almost COM
plctely when winter comes II would
oven pay tho dairymon 10 have winter
cows instead OF summer. Keep thom
dry in summer, and harvest good milk
producing feed for winter. Then feed
them well, give thom warm quarters,
and mako twice tho profit from tho sale
Of tho cream that IL now realized.
But the right cows, properly fed and
housed and managed, can bo made to
produce good cream summer and win
ter. Tho fact that the old fashioned
dairying was practicod only during
summer holds such sway over the minds
of some farmers That they arc avorso TO
attempting anything else. They will
not give proper heed TO tho feed aud
housing. Tho animals aro going 10 he
an expense anyway. and no they reason
we will reduce II next TO nothing.
Winter feed win not cost much more
than summer II it Is properly obtained
and fed. Good millot. hay and corn
fodder can DO provided IN abundance,
and the silo win yield enough succulont
food TO keep the animals in excellent
condition. Give tho cows n warm house
ON cold days. and let them spend most
of their timo in g. A fow hours n day
in tho yard will give them enough OK
crciso. In fact, tho exercise and fresh
air theory for cows has boon worked for
moro than IL Ia worth. Tho animals
| need warmer stables more than they do
moro exercise. All tho exercise they re-
| quirc Ia Just enough TO keep their organs
] in good condition. Moro than this, tho
cold weather dries up their milk. Give
winter dairying its proper attention, and

FOR BETTER ROADS.
Congressional Aid Expected-Improve-
ments Being Investigated.


Secretary Morton, of the Agricultural De
partment, in compliance with the inquiry au-
thorized by the Fifty Congress, has in
stituted a thorough and systematic investiga-
ton of road improvements to secure the most
practical and useful Information attainable on
the subject. Atthe Agricultural Department
it is stated that great interest has been mani
| tested upon the subect-an interest which
has been largely fostered by bicyclists, who
are deeply concerned aud through whom the
movement for better roads has been inaugu-
rated.
Here are some of the most important points
upon which the department desires informa-
| ton:
| The practical working of the recent road
| laws of the various States wherever the same
have been tested, the difficulties found in their
| application and suggestions for their amend
| ment.
| The character and cost Of the roads built
| under these laws, the materials used and the
| present condition and prospective durability
| of such roads.
| The results of any experiments in the con.
struction of narrow and cheap hard roads, OF
of roads having one track of earth and one OF
stone or gravel, with full particulars as to
cost and method of construction.
The result of any practical experience in
the use of burnt clay for roads.
The cost and benefits of tile drainage OF
roads as shown by practice.
The best method of constructing a common
highway without gravel or stone and with or
without under-drainage.
| Definite facts as to the enhancement of
property values through road improvement.
The results of any experiments in the en-
| ployment of convict labor on roads or the
! preparation of road materials
| The details of all bond issues for road i'm
provement and how, where and at what cost
| the same were mark eted,
| \ sub-department, known as the road in
quiry department, has been established at the
| Agricultural Department, and it is this sub
department which is receiving and compiling
! the information received.
! 1t is fully expected that an attempt will be
made at the approaching session of Congress
to secure some legislation looking to gen.
eral improvement of roads.
| Secretary Morton is not prepared at this
time to say what character Of legislation he
would prefer.
