A milling plant of not less than one hundred tons daily capacity will have to be put up to handle the output of the mine.
 The Prescott Courier Is in receipt of communication from Springfield Mining Camp, Peoples Valley, which states that "Peeples Valley, has bright future at her door, in mining; two mills going up and another com pany is developing some mines three miles west of the old Model mine and some work is being done on Pawley's gold mines, adjoining the Model. There are plenty of large quartz veins in sight to work three or feur more companies" Accompanying this com- munication is a rather artic pen picture of friend of the writer of the communication. The picture is the work of an artist who only needs a little practice to make him fortune In that line.
 Pick & Drill: The Etta mine is fast developing into one of the best gold properties in the county. With increased depth the ore bodies become large and richer At the depth of 300 feet water was encountered in such quantity as to require extra ma chinery by which to control it. MT. James Shirley is now in town for the purpose of procuring steam engine to be used in pumping the water out of the lower levels. One excellent feature in connection with the Etta, and it's economical working, is the unlimited water power available, which can be utilized for all purposes in mining and milling. The mine and mill are situated on the Verde river, and the owners contemplate putting in the necessary fumes and ma chinery to enabIo them to use water power for evory purpose about the mine and mill.
