Il don't know why it is" says Prof
Alfred w. Stokes, the well-known Lon
don analysist, but the average Lon
don householder will insist on having
milk of a nice yellow or cream color.
Now, only the Channel Island cows
yield yellow milk, but what OF that?
There is a demand: the supply shall
not fail while there is a comparatively
harmless coloring matter called annot-
TO, which looks like red ink, and a few
drops of which will make a gallon of
fresh milk the color beloved of the
Londoner."
1t is both instructive and amusing to
follow the evolution of the milk de-
scribed by Professor Stokes-who, by
the way, has been protecting London
ers against adulterated food for the
last % years. First OF all. the farmer
adds his quota of water. Then the
farmers man. who takes the pals and
churns to the station for conveyance
to London, may plunge the vessels into
a brook in order 10 cool the milk quick
ly, and In this way more water gets in

Professor Stokes has found alive and
well in milk churns. Then come the
railway servants who occasionally take
n long. long pull at the contents of the
churns when they are unlocked for off,
cial inspection during the journey to
the towns. OF course, the most obvi-
Gus way TO conceal such pilfering is TO
add more water; and this is done with
fine generosity. A prosecution for this
very offense was recorded recently.
Then come the wholesale dealer. the
retailer. and perhaps the servants. The
retailer occasionally extracts the cream
and adds such preservatives as borax
and boracic acid. Under these circum-
stances IL is interesting to note that
the lactometer wherewith the astute
householder provides himself registers
good milk"
The excuses given by farmers and
others for adulterated milk are inge-
nious. The churns have been left out
in the rain. or the cooler may have
leaked, or the lump of ice was too
large. One dealer swore positively in
court that he did not put a single drop
OF water into the milk. He did not He

Idaho city Feeders.


Idaho City, Idaho, Jan. III. J.
Sparks has started up a three-stamp
min on his Big Six mine, between Pho
neer and Placerville, and three miles
from the latter place. This mine was
discovered by him during the summer
and he feels confident that he has a
very valuable property. Fifteen tons
Of ore was reduced before he secured
the mill and the returns were SIS per
ton in free gold. The vein is large and
has been developed by 130-foot tunnel
which follows the ledge for 1875 feet.
Six men are employed in the mine and
mill.
Steve Smith is busy developing vein
in his mine on Summit Flat. One of the
veins is well developed and known to
be good. BY the time spring opens he
expects to have out considerable high
grade ore for milling.
A large number of mines and pros
poets have been relocated since the be-
ginning of the year. AS many of
them were located on January 1, which
is a legal holiday, 1t is doubtful wheth-
er they will hold good.
William Gibbs is running a tunnel to
more thoroughly develop the Bella
company's Edna mine, at Edna, be-
tween this place and Banner. This is
very large and rich silver mine, and,
although there seems to be no hope for
the price of silver coming up again for
some time, the company hopes to find
1t rich enough to pay dividends at the
present low price. 1t is contemplated to
erect a large stamp mill as soon as
soon as spring opens.
An eastern company is about to pur-
chase the placer ground in Grimes and
Granite creeks and putting in a bed
rock flume. The enterprise would prove
very profitable to any company that
folyn h.
creeks have yielded millions, and there
are millions left. They were worked
when wages were never less than Sc per
day and supplies and tools enormously
high.
A large number of men are drifting
under the lava along Moore creek this
winter, and they report beating
wages"
The Bowling brothers and A. y. Day
have dug a ditch to lead water on their
placer ground on Boise river a few
miles above the mouth of More creek
They have good ground and hope to be
able to commence piping during the
month of February.
Dave Coughanour, owner of the Iowa
ct Quartzburg, was here yesterday and
Informed your reporter that he is run
ming long tunnel to open up the mine
at depth of several hundred feet. Dur
ing the summer and fall he kept 10
stamp mill running, and says he dem
onstrated that ore which will yield 81
per ton will pay all expenses of mining
and milling. This seems very low, but
as Mr. CouGhanour is one of the best
figurers among the mine owners of this
county, and for over 20 years made a
great success of the Gold Hill mines
and mill, his judgment ought to be
good. The Iowa mine. of which he Is
the sole owner, is a large vein-from 20
to 25 feet wide-and will yield enormous
quantities of ore at but very small ex-
pense when the tunnel now running
reaches the ledge. Mr.. Coughanour has
a 20-stamp mill at Graham, and says
that he will move il to Quartzburg as
soon as possible next spring.

The dispatches to the daily papers
from Montreal tell us of the kissing of
the American flag by a Canadian au-
dicnce at Montreal. The tolerant Brit
ons who are a portion of Queen Vic's
domlnlons across the line could not
bear the sight of Old Glory without am
expression of their hatred and blgotry
for the flag of the nation which has
whipped John Bull into submission and
subsection, and is able and ready to
it again.
These periodical exhibitions of Brit
ism feeling against the republic would
be amusing were they not 50 mlserably
sp.teful and vindhctive. They prove one

the year just closed was the develop
ment of the Boise gold belt. 1t is now
known that a gold belt extends from
Camas prairie on the southeast in a
northerly direction to and beyond WIZ
low creek. In a general way, the mines
of Elmore and Ada counties, together
with the Willow creek district in Boise
county, are located on this belt; and
whatever development work has been
prosecuted ON this belt, satisfactory re-
suits have rewarded the enterprise of
the operators. The secret OF mother
earth has been learned: That these
hedges, in every instance. improve with
depth. Lodges practically worthless at
the outcrop are found. upon being de-
veloped to some depth, TO be valuable
mines. Among the districts on this
belt are the Black Hornet, Neal, Dixie.
where the biggest gold ledge in the
state rs located, and Willow creek.
A company has been organized in
Chicago that proposes TO operate ON
gravel bars at the Horseshoe bend of
Salmon river in this state. The object
OF the company is to run a cut through
the neck of the bend, a distance OF
1900 feet, and turn the river into a
new channel, some feet lower than the
original channel, and thus drain 5000
feet of the present bed. 1t is supposed
there are millions of dollars of gold in
dhe bed of the river for every mile OF
its distance, and the supposition is
reasonable. The banks of the river are
one continuous deposit of aurlferous
gravel 9nd each seasons high water
makes new deposits along the shore.

ture of something like 100000.

The firm of Slayden, Clarkson &

merchants OF this city, filed an
assignment last evening to M. E..
Andrews, OF all the estate belong
ing to the partnership except such
as is exempt by law from execu-
ton. No statement was given, but
1T Is believed that the liabilities
will amount to 100000, with assets
at about 100000. The creditors
are mostly foreign. Among the
local creditors is the Alamo Ma.
tional bank, with which the firm
kept an account. 1t Is said the
firm owes the bank about 500.
General business depression is
given as the cause of the assign.
ment.
