MINING NE WIS.

The Home Pastime mine in 'ona'e
 anty is turning out 800 ounce silver ore.
 pennbllcan: George w. Norton has ,rst returned to Mohawk from a vlslt | in the King of Arizona. He says the ore is getting richer as depth IS at ,ained and larger crew of men have hoen put on at the mine. Ore tracks and chutes are being built and the nlaee is beginning to assume the ap- pearance of mine.
 Graham Guardian: The Lone Star mining district may yet become q treat copper camp. The ore found tbere is of very high grade and it isN believed that there is sufficient now in sight to supply agood sized shelter nm the river, which we understand is to be erected near Salford at once, an account having been already opened In Tucson bank for that purpose.
 Republican: The Mlnnehaha strike in Yayapai county continues to hold ont. The strike was made on ledge on natcnted ground in the vicinity Of the Fortuna mill. The claim has been sold to Messrs. Riley, Swasey x Orton and they will use the old Fortuna mill to work theo ore. The edge of the new strike is said to be seventy feet in width. The discovery of the ledge was made twenty years ago 1t IS said but the prospector who found 1t never dldanything withit.
 Journal Miner: T. w. Evans was in Prescott with samples of some rich ore. taken from a claim owned by him about six miles south of town. The claim is called Star Of the West and is located on Indian creek. The ledge is about four feet wide, and MT. Evans and partners have a tunnel in on it I30 feet at which distance they are lOOfeet beneath the surface. In doing location work they had samples of the ore assayed from depth of two feet which went SIG per ton in gold. At ten feet they had assays made again which showed value of s232 80. Since commencing work on the tunnel they have not had any assays made, but the ore shows up we'll by horning.
 
 Journal Miner: Captain Wm. De Witt returned yesterday from visit to the Bradshaw mountains and says there is no mistake anout the import antstrIke made in W. W. Vanderbilt's Del Pasco mine. He considers it one of the most important made in the history of the county. Captain De. Witt made the first mill run of orc ever made from this property. It came from near the surface and was free milling ore and was fabulously rich. The claim was worked till base ore was encountered, and as they had no appliances in those days for treat i"s tiliS OidSS Oi Oie' iV was pSIihiboee to lie idle for years. At the point where MT. Vanderbilt struck the ledg, it is 700 feet below the surface, so that if the ore body should not extent below this point, he has a fortune II sight. Samples of ore were taker clear across the face of the ore body and they gave assay returns S6l2 a ton

RAISING DAIRY CALVES.
A Task Rec. uirinG Great Care and Nae
cel'ent Judgment

The raising of calves we believe, isa
very important part OF the business, for
10 us dairy without some good, thrifty
calves is not what II should be. II a calf
is worth raising at all il is worth rails
ing well. To begin with we watch the
dam closely TO see that she has good,
comfortable place 10 drop her calf in.
In cold weather stall-box with plenty
OF bedding is a good place. Then we
leave matters with her unless we see
that she needs assistance, which she
often does. especially if she is young
COW. We do not remove the calf imme-
diately after birth. as some people do.
but leave il 10 suck two or three times
at least. If its mother is an old COW
we let il suck five or six times, taking
great care that the youngster does not
get too much milk and therefore get the
scours. We then put the calf in pen
In the barn where the mother can see
1t and not worry over il. and teach II
to drink its mothers milk as soon as
drawn for a week or ten days; then be-
gin feeding skinned milk with about
q tablespoonful of ground fiaxseed
scalded by pouring a little boiling
water over il and letting ii stand a few
minutes before mixing it with the milk.
After about three or four weeks the
ration is composed entirely of skinned
milk and ground fiaxseed.
Being placed in the pen with the older
calves il soon learns to eat clover hay
and grain composed of equal parts OF
shelled corn. oats and wheat bran,
which are fed literally. We feed the
ground faNseed in preference TO oil
meal because ii contains more fat and
is the best substitute for the cream
taken from the milk that we have ever
tried. After the calf gets 10 be about
ten or twelve weeks old we substitute
oil-meal for the fiaxseed. until the cali
is weaneG from milk entirely at the
age OF five or six months and then ado
the oil-meal to the grain in a dry state.
A calf needs its grain ration twice day
for year at least before il is turned
out to grass alone. BY following this
plan we have never failed TO raise calves
that would weigh from 500 TO l,l0C
pounds at one year old.
From this time on they need the at
tention of some one to see that they are
bred at the right time. Fifteen tc
eighteen months is our rule. so as ia
have them drop their first calf soor
after they are two years old. Having
most of our heifers come in fresh in thu
spring they are put in the barn the fal
before and handled during the winter
and fed little grain TO keep them il
good condition and the udders devel
oped as much as possible by hand rub
bling. This. we think. is an excellen
plan. because the COW is invariabl.
gentle after this kind Of treatment ant
it is no trouble to break her.-Dakoti
