MINING NOTES.
The Savoy has begun the sinking of
a new shaft.

The Savoy has begun the sinking OF
new shaft.
The work on the Pioneers new
shaft is rapidly progressing.
Only two drills have so far been
started by the Minnesota people on
section %.
1t Is said the diamond drills of the
Minnesota company at Armstrong
lake have drilled through a large
body of ore.
Henry Wessinger. formerly master
mechanic at the Minnesota mines al
Soudan has been made superintend-
ent of the Sauntry mine at Virginia,
under the American Steel and Wire
company. We are pleased TO note the
appointment and his many friends or
this range will join with US in
wishing him well.
The National Steel company is af-
Ter mining properties on the MeSaOa
range aud las practically clused The
purchase of the Spruce and Cloquet
mines from p. l.. Kimberly. The
Spruce mine is located on the old
townsite of Eyeleth and contains 50
acres The fee is owned by T. E.
Dorr, Of Saginaw, and other Michigan
people. 1t was leased lie Mr. Kimber-
ly less than year ago, and lie has
since been developing it and has
shown up S.O0O,0O0 tons of ore. The
price to be paid for the property Is
said to be SIIO0.000 The ClOquet
mine includes l60 acres.
The lease rate for iron ore proper
ties is advancing under the present
demand. Two years ago many con-
tracts for from thirty to fifty years
were made at from 10 to 20 cents Il
ton. 1t has been in proceeding years
averaging about . cents, and that
WAS the price set by legislation for
all leases made by the state of Mime
sosa A few weeks ago a lease was
closed near ETeleth at 50 cents a ton
and later one was taken on the Yer
million range at 40 cents, while this
week a MeSaba lease has been closed
at 80 cents. Both these rates show
that the entire system of fat rate
is wrong. and that a sliding scale,
based on ore values at market, is
what must come.

A Warning.

Following is a copy of the notices
of warning sent out by the Miners
Union Of SLOGAN and which have been
freely circulated about this city:
There has been, since June lst.
1899 lockout on in the mines of the
SLOGAN, B. c., which is not yet sett-
led
This lockout WAS declared by the
mine-owners in an attempt to reduce
wages. There are hundreds of idle
men in the country, ready TO GO TO
work at living wages. All working
men are earnestly requested to stay
away until existing difficulties are adj
justed.
The Silver Lead Mines association.
composed of the mine managers of
the district and organized for the APP
parent purpose of effeciing a reduc-
tion of wages, is constantly engaged
in misrepresenting the conditions ex-
listing here. in order to fill the coun-
try with men. that they may succeed
in forcing the men to accept lower
wages.
Therefore We appeal to you all to
show respect to the men who have so
long valiently battled for the rights
and interests of working men: and out
of regard TO your own welfare. keep
away from the SLOGAN until the labor
troubles are settled.
And we further beSeeh all friends of
labor TO assist Us in inducing men to
stay away, and especially TO counter
act the influence of the false stale
ments made by the Silver Lead Mines
association and their agents.

Won BY the State.

Receiver Smith and Register Gull
kin have made their decision in tile
case of the state of Minnesota, claim
ant. VIM. j. Mitchell, protestant.
against Charles j. Clements, entry
man. The land involved is in Sec
tion SO, COLI. This is school
section and the state claims that
when the township was opened to
entry on Nov. Il. 1897, the section
belonged To the state. Clements and
Mitchell made entries upon it the
next day and their entries conflict
ed upon part of the land. Both al
legged settlement. When the time for
the hearing came around Mitchell
did not appear Clements afterward
made final proof and in setting the
hearing the state and Mitchell We're
notified. Mitchell came in and filed
a contest. Tie state also claimed
the land. The officers hold that tie
and could be taken from the state
by man who settled prior to the
time the township was opened. They
find. however. that Clements did
not make a bona fde settlement on
the land and recommend his entry
for cancellation. The state gets
the land subject to such rights as
Mitchell may establish.

Large Lumber Sale.

Swallow & Hopkins have sold the
entire cut of their No. boards anG
better at their sawmill at Winton
for the present year. The deal invol.
yes about $500 900 and the estimated
number OF feet is 1900. 600.
The lumber has been sold to Tona-
wanda and Chicago parties. 1t will
be shipped from Two Harbors by
boat to the buyers at the former
point, but the lumber for the Chicago
parties will go all by rail from Win
ton right through the summer. The
arrangement TO ship lumber all rail
TO Chicago via Duluth frum Northern
Minnesota is significant that lumber
dealers anticipate that vessel rates
for transportation of their commodi-
ty will be very high.

To Parallel the Missabe

1t S now almost an assured fact
that the Eastern Minnesota road will

OURFARMERS.
DIFFERENT FEED FOR THE PIGS.

There is no farm animal which will
take to a greater variety of food than
the pig, and it is possible to starve
the creature into eating almost any
thing on the farm. Nearly all the
waste of the farm can be utilized in
this way. It is because of this re-
markable adaptibility to different
foods that farmers in the past drop
ped into the habit of feeding sour
swill to the swine. 1t was the easiest
way to get rid of the waste, and the
pigs would eat sour swill as we'll as
Stops and keep them indefinitely. Of
course the progressive farmer who
raises pigs for the market to-day does
not feed sour swill to them. His food
is selected with ne arlyas much care
as for the cows and sheep, and the
pig shows it in an ampler girth,
sweeter and juicier pork, and better
health.
Clover and corn have become stand
ard food for pigs, and they make
combination that is hard to beat. But
it is not always desirable to feed them
exclusively on these, and sometimes
it may be even necessary to make
them of only secondary Importance in
the scheme of feeding Corn may not
do we'll on the land, or a bad season
may have injured it, and the clover
may have run out and the new field
failed to catch we'll. Corn and clover
moreover, do not contain all of the
food eleme nts essential to the growth
and development of pig, and other
foods ere really required to make the
ration complete. Glover is good and
so is corn, but in addition to these we
should have some peas, bran, roots,
fruit and milk to give to the animals.
These given in the proper proportions
are bound to produce excellent results.
Barley meal is a food that greatly i'm
proves the quality of the pork, and in
finishing off pigs for the market there
is nothing in the world superior to it.
Then the different root crops keep
the systems Of the pigs in good condi-
ton, add certain flavor to the pork,
and otherwise prove of the greatest
value.
