A NEW QUARTZ MILL.

A man named Hoyt, at Chicago, has
invented and patented quartz mill
which in it's principle and design 10
different from any other aud promises
10 reyolutiouize the treatment OF free
milling ores. The mill works upon the
principle of the old-style Touring mill
burrs The burrs are made OF case
hardened steel and are not susceptible
10 bruising or injury by coming in con-
tact with the hardest rock. The ore IS
first broken TO a quarter inch then Il is
fed into the mill or burrs in 4 manner
similar TO feeding the burrs with wheat.
The ore is crushed 10 pass through a
lOO-mesh screen and passes from the
mill over amalgam plates, there being
three plates 10 each mill. 1t requires
less water than the old. fashioned stamp
mill process and it is claimed, gives
much better results. A pair Of burrs
(which are called a mill will treat 100
tons Of ore in "a hours. at cost of Is
cents per ton or less. 1t requires about
25.horse power TO run il. The cost of the
mill is s. 900, which is about one-hith the
cost of stamp mill ofthe same capacity.
We understand some parties at Custer
have purchased one of the mills and are
putting II up on a group of claims near
that place. We are informed also that
Mr.. Hoyt, the inventor, has offered to
make practical tests for anybody and
will pay the freight TO Chicago on ship
ments of ore up to -four carloads. He
advises parties TO ship the very hardest
ore they have and he guarantees to
treat il successfully. If the new mill
performs half what is claimed for II BY
its inventor. it will without doubt work
a revolution in the treatment of free
milling ores -Pioneer-Times.

PROSPEROUS San JUAN COUNTY.
Probate Clerk McRae Pays a Glowing and
Merited Tribute to His Resource
full County.

William McRae, the capable and popu-
lar probate clerk of San Juan county,
who is in Santa Fe on'business before the
United States District court, in con-
versation with a New MEXICAN reporter
this morning, paid a glowing and merit
ed tribute to his prosperous and richly
resourceful county.
Mr. McRae says that San Juan county
has made remarkable progress during
the past year, and, under the impulse of
the extensive irrigation work now in
progress. is likely to multiply its popula-
tion and productive capacity by at least
two during 1898.
"Thc new ditch enterprise has been
| started on the east side of the Animas
river, about IL miles above Aztec" he
says, ''and is being energetically prose-
cuted by men, who not only understand
their business, but have ample capital
to carry on and complete the important
work. The main canal from the Animas
river, with the miles of laterals cOntem-
plated, will reclaim thousands of acres
Of fertile mesa land as far east as Bloom
| field on the San Juan river, affording
fine fruit. grain and vegetable farms for
many new settlers.
Speaking of the enormous fruit crop
of San Juan county during the past sea-
son, Mr.. McRae expresses the opinion
that the yield Of winter apples was fully
1O,OO0,O00 pounds, which sold for $780,
600. The crop of peaches, apricots,
plums, pears and other summer fruits
was proportionately large, but much OF
this fruit rotted under the trees as it
could not be protitably hauled so miles
to market on wagons. "The present
great need of the county" he added, ''is
a railroad outlet for its products, both
| north and south, and the people feel
confident that the time is not far distant
when such an outlet will be provided. "
Harrington has been greatly i'm
proved during the past year and nearly
all of the ranchmen of the county are
making substantial and attractive i'm
provements OF course, after making
San Juan county my home for 20 years,
| / am very much pleased to witness all
these signs Of prosperity" ydhcluded
Mr.. McRae.
