In 1898 there were 80 of the 81 coun-
ties of California which produced min
eral of some kind. In some of the
counties four or five substances are
produced. There are upward of 10 diff
ferent mineral substances of CONNER
cial value found in California, of which
about ~ are at present being utilized. In
nearly all of these branches of mineral
industry there is room for increase OF
product as more capital is invested
There are numerous known deposits
which are not worked or utilized, either
owing to lack of transportation facili-
ties or because of cost of shipping to
distant markets.
The following official statement of the
State Mineralogist shows the value and
the amount of the different substances
mined in California in 1898.

The relative rank Of the counties OF
the State, in point of mineral produc-
ton, is given in the following table. In
each case the value given includes that
of all mineral substances combined
produced in the respective counties for
the year. Some counties produce in
addition to gold and silver, five, six or
seven other substances, while other
counties which yield little or no gold or
silver, produce in large quantities
quicksilver, mineral oils, copper, lead,
asphalt, structural materials, etc. The
figures after the names of the coun-
ties indicate aggregate value of all
mineral products for the year, includ-
ing the precious metals. The term
"undistributed' includes total values
of such substances as are grouped to
avoid disclosing private business, as in
the case of single operations In

tables published by the State Mining
Bureau, from which these figures are
taken, the amount of value of each
substance in said county is set forth.

to place the figures in the "undis-

1t is their attention to establish there a
complete summer resort. To this end they
have already purchased one of the buildings

A Severe Cold.

"a very simple measure in the very be-
ginning Of cold" says the Baltimore, o.,
News, "is to take hot bath until the
perspiration is established and then wrap
the body in two or three warm, dry blank
cts in a warm room, so that there will be
free perspiration for an hour. The body
should then be rubbed and dried, and the
individual should go to bed without any
exposure, and remain there from IL to 36
hours, or until the symptoms of the cold
have entirely disappeared" If you should
venture out before the end OF 36 hours
you would be almost certain to contract a
worse cold and perhaps pneumonia. Would
it not be better to take tablespoonful
Cfour times the usual dose) Of Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy just before going to
bed. That would effectually break up the
cold. Then you could go about your bust
ness as usual without any fear of pneumonia
as it counteracts any tendency Of a cold tc
