tits reported here that few days
ago, in Boise City, Dan Reber sold
to Salt Lake parties the one half Of
his Dixie mine, situated 20 miles
east of Mountain Home-the con-
sideration being $4,000. The
property consists of small quartz
mill and five mining claims. This
is an important transfer-one that
will benefit Mountain Home, be-
cause it will enable Mr.. Reber to
prosecute work at the mines on a
much larger scale and be the means
of giving employment to a greater
number of miners. 1t is valuable
mining property and will give o
good account of itself before spring
time. Since putting the above i'll
type we learn that w. II. Dodge Of
Salt Lake is the purchaser, and that
Mr. Reber yesterday ordered large
lot of mining supplies, lumber, ETC.,
from this place.
