Morton E. Davis. prominent and
practical railroad man, has plan for
making an airline r. r. from New York
to San Francisco. He will shorten the
distance more than 800 miles and re.
duce the time of the trip more in pro-
portion as the road will be practically
level and will not turn out of its course
to pass through large cities or around
mountains. He claims it will be cheap
er to build spurs to the cities than to
diverge to get to them; and cheaper to
tunnel mountains than to haul freight
oyer them. Mr.. Morton has studied his
route carefully and he says he has met
with such success that the preliminary
survey will be made in short time.

Searchllght Mining Camp.

Byron Collins, who returned this
week from visit to Searchlight, the
new mining camp in Southeastern
Nevada, was interviewed by MINER re.
porter and the following facts of inter.
est elected:
The camp of Searchlight is located
twenty-four miles from Marvel and
seventeen miles from the San Bernar-
dino county line. The mines have been
under development for two years past
and several of the properties of the
Quartette mining company have at.
tained a depth of 800 feet. At this
depth water was encountered, and a.
the whim in use could not handle both
water and waste, further sinking was
suspended until steam hoists are put
In. The ore bodies are of good size
and well defined,
The town is made up in the manner
usual to new mining camps in the
Southwest--a few saloons, boarding
houses and two stores. Water is sup
piled by wagon at one dollar per barrel,
but the striking of water in the mine
Will soon relegate the business into the
shade.

Valley by the barrel, but has no mouop.
oily of the busienss as has the water
company in San Francisco. Dick Hall,
the discoverer of Vanderbilt, is also a
water vendor.
f. w. Dunn, well known at Needles,
Is the general manager of the Quarette
company, and he is making a complete
success of it, The company is now
putting in a mill on the river at a point
near the head of Cottonwood Island,
twelve miles from the mines, that will
handle about sixty tons of ore per day
The ore is cyaniding material aud
will average 20S to the ton.
The miues recently sold to Los
Angeles company by Joe Boland aud
others are being worked by small
force of men.
Mr., Collins believes that the camp i,
one of the best in Southern Nevada,
and that the mines will become big
producers.
X. q. Patterson and DR.. d. B. North.
rup, of San Diego, were passengers on
the steamer Bertha, which had the Dora
b. in tow when the hawser parted aud
allowed that craft To drift on the rocks |
near Yukatat Bay, where it was wrecked |
aud all hands lost. The two gentlemen
were on their way to Yukatat, where |
they expected to locate mine they |
had heard about some time ago. They |
will be gone all summer. Messrs. Pat !,
terson aud Northrnp are well known in
Mohave county, where Mr. Patterson |
still retains many mining interests.
w 5. Hancock, who for many years
was the division master mechanic of |
the Santa Fe at Needles, and who was !
transferred to Winslow, has
resigned his position and passed
through here few days ago, bound for

The two mills on the river, the Home
stake and Sheeptrail, are scheduled to
start up on the 18th. The com bned
capacity of the mills is forty stamps.
capable of crushing l6, tons of ore
daily. The pulp will pass over ANAL
gamating plates to take out the coarse
gold and then the tailings will be treat
ed with the cyanide process. Expert
ence has demonstrated that by this
process about ninety-five per cent of
the values can be extracted. The com
panies operating the properties have
secured a number of claims surround
ing their original purchases and are
developing them systematically.

George Lockwood, one Of the luckiest
chloriders that ever stuck pick in the
ground, is again in bonanza. Some
time ago he took lease on portion of
the q. A. r. mine, at White Hills, and
went to work on spot that was not
considered very good, The first shot
he put in brought out ore as rich as
ever the White Hill produced. He is
now, it is said, taking out one thousand
dollars per day and the big body of ore
shows no diminution. The q. A. r.
was the one big producer in the White
Hills years ago and Lockwood's strike
may again bring it into prominence.

development will be rushed from this

Growing Flax.

Flax is all important crop in the
Red River valley, and it has proved
so especially the past year on &C.
count Of the high price, The seed,
however, is only a part OF the crop.
The straw also has great value, and
efforts are now being made to better
utilize this part Of the plant The
making OF linen paper from fax tow
may become an important industry
in the valley. A large paper mill is
being erected at Niagara, N. D., and
another at Fargo. A mill at Moor
head proposes to manufacture linen
goods. Flax tow is also used for up
holstery, food for stock and various
other purposes. Farmers may be-
fore long find it profitable to grow
flax for fiber only. Utilizing all the
by products that are now allowed to
go to waste on the farm, fax straw
as we'll as wheat straw, will make
farming pay better in the future. In
order to produce the best results
flax, like other crops, must be grown
in rotation.
