A smelter is now one of the pos
sibilities in store for Kingman

to maintain a plant of two hundred
tons daily capacity--ore in plenty,
limestone and iron. The ores of

If you were to G, into an office or
business house and ask for posi-
ton as clerk or okkeeper, one OF
the first questions that would be
asked would be: "Are you quail
fled for the position" Yet every
day we see cases where men who
never saw a mine and never even
had the advantages of mining
education, sent out to take charge
of a property that would pay with
the proper management, and of
necessity make a dismal failure Of
the undertaking, and the blame is
attached to the property instead OF
the management. In any other
business, except mining, man
must necessarily be able to know
what he is about before he is placed
IN position of trust. If people
who invest in mining prop rites
would be as careful in selecting
CO mpetent men to take charge as
they do in any other branch Of bus
mess, there would be less failure
chronicled in the mining field as
there is today.

The Denv-r Mining Record, the

"The rule, among those unac.

discredit investments in mines or
mining stocks as gamble. Con-

oculated with the speculative fever,
fear the effects on their clients
should they become interested in
any form i" mining
at is a little remarkable that
with so large q number of railways
of the country in the hands of re-
ce'vers, they so complacently rec.
ommend an investment in the
railway share, and that. yielding a
profit, if at all, of possibly 6 or 7
per cent year is, from its very
moderate return on the investment,
eminently respectable.
But to invest money in a mine or
in mining stocks, where the profit
is likely to be several hundred per
cent, is considered vulgar and very

to consider that mining does not in

John Hays Hammond at the an
nual dinner of the Institution of
Mining and Metallurgy, in London,
a few days ago, among other good
things said: The min
ing industry needs no eulogv; as
the child said when its mother
asked if it had prayed for the
American navy, there is no use
troubling God about it; the navy
will take care of itself. The min
ing industry is the keystone of all
industries and the mining engineer
the pioneer of civilization. From
the heart Of torrid Africa to that
Of frigid Alaska the hardy miner
will be found. Speaking of pro.
moters he believed they could be
traced back to the time when Eve
was made for Adams Express Com

Smoking Meat.

The season for curing MEATS here
and we suppose every farmer has
his own way of curing. We never
have seen any good in smoking
meat, or at best, have never heard
any good reason gixen for the Gus
tom except that in some way it
''cured" or helped to cure the meat,
A writer in that excellent paper.
Home and Farm, says that in Dec,
'9S he killed his hogs and let the
meat lay in salt until January, then
washed the meat in warm water and
let it dry off some, and then sprink'
led the flesh side and hooks with
powdered boraz, then Hung the
'-eat in the top OF the smoke house.
Some of the meat is there now, al d
never has had bug or an iIsecect
of any kind on it This is the second
year he has treated his meat in this
way, with the same satisfactory re-
suit. 4 good deal of time and
trouble is expended in smoking
meat, which does no good except to
keep insects away until the meat
dries The powdered borax will
keep all insects away, and, says the
writer, so much trouble in curing
meat can all be avoided. Borax is
very CHEAP, and it might be well to
try this simple plan. In the mean
time, will some of our successful
farmers tell our readers what good
there is in smoking meat.
