To Preserve Flowers

Professor Pftzer in The Journal of
the Austrian Pharmaceutical society
gives the following method for Preserv-
ing flowers so that they retain their
natural color and shape. We quote an
abstract from The National Druggist;
.'Moisten 900 parts of fine white sand
that has been previously well washed
and thoroughly dried and sifted with a
solution consisting of three parts Of
stearin, 5 parts of parafin, 3 parts Of
salicylic acid and 100 parts of alcohol
Work the sand up thoroughly, so that
every grain of it is impregnated with
the mixture, nd then spread it out and
let it become perfectly dry. To use,
place the flowers in a suitable box, the
bottom of which has been covered with
a portion of the prepared sand, and then
dust the latter over them until all the
interstices have been completely filed
with it. Close the box lightly, and put
in a place where it can be maintained at
a temperature of from 80 to 40 degrees
c. for two or three days. At the expi-
ration of this time remove the box and
let the sand escape. The flowers can
then be put into suitable receptacles or
glass cases without fear of deteriora-
ton. Flowers that have become wilted

There is considerable excitement at
present over the rich gold discoveries in
the Neal district, Elmore county, Idaho.
The Union Pacific railroad company
has recently established a town and
depot not far from the camp.
The Statesman of Boise City, in
speaking of the Neal district says;
I'll S Howe is in from the Hidden
Treasure mine in the Neal district.
Emore counyt. He brings good re
ports from that place and states that be
is more than ever convinced that Neal
is the best mining district in Idaho
As an illustration of the character
of the prospecting heretofore in that
district Mr. Howe tells an interesting
story respecting a ledge that he and mis-
sons have recently located This ledge
has been known to men working in the
district for several years, but in some
manner reputation of being worthless
had attached to it. 1t was pointed out
some time ago to Fred Howe He was
pleased with its appearance and made
an examination of all the grounds.
There was a streak of hard quartz stand
ing high above the surface that was
easily traceable for more than 1000 feet.
Investigation, however, showed that
this was simply a hard streak in the
ledge which appears in places to be ten
or fifteen feet wide. Fred carried piece
of rock back to camp with him. His
father ground it up and PANIED it and
was astonished at the results obtained.
They at once concluded that the lead
was worthy of further investigation
They went over to it prepared to test
the rock more fully and to make loca-
ton if results were satisfactory. Before
digging two feet they exposed ore that
showed free gold in considerable guam
titles and panning of the ore at num-
Der of points showed it to be very rich.
Mr.. Howe states that he never found
such prospects on any ledge in the state.
Work on the Hidden Treasure is pro-
crossing satisfactory. The main tunnel

near at hand. The vein has been open

vein there shows four feet of good ore.
a large proportion of which is sulphide
running as high as II ounces gold to

Balbach brought in a bar worth $500.
In addition he shipped sixteen tons of
concentrates. This was the product for
the month of the old Plowman mill run
