A NEW BASIS FOR SOUTHERN
PROSPERITY.

PROSPERITY.
Under this heading the publica.
ton called tho Worlds Work" gives
some interesting figures which We
quote as the basis Of this article.
For the past thirty-6ve years the
cotton crops of this country on IN
average have Brought Us about
$500, 100000. Most of this baled
cotton has been sold to England,
with New England as q second
market, a. is true in many other
commercial transactions, the buy
ers. samplers and shippers who sold
the crop, absorbed large part OF
its value. The price for several
wears fell continuously until the
crop Of 1898 although unusually
heavy brought only about o23o,'
100000. The crop Of 1899, al
though much smaller, marketed for
900, 100000, and that OF 1900 has
brought fully >5oo,ooo,ooo. The
increase in price is not due so much
to the short crop as it is to tue
growth in the amount manufactured
in our own Southern cotton mills,
and having no freight OK middle
men charges to pay they offered
more for cotton on the spot than II
was quoted in the New York market
This is only the beginning. The
tide las not fairly turned yet IN "u'
favor, for this local demand will
continue to increase fer more rapid
" now that the experiment Of
manufacturing the cotton with i'm
ished goods in the came State in
which it grew has proved success
Against this increasing local demand
the rest of the worlds cotton manu-
facturers will have to strive and thu
inevitable result will be the transfer
of the cotton manufacturing indus
try moro and more to thee Cnitet
States, and no: only to this countr!
but to the cotton growing States t
a large extent. The South is al

BORAK INDUSTRY.
Churchil! County Enterprise Makes
a Depot of Wadsworth.

a Depot of Wadsworth.
w. A. D. writing to the Mining and
Engineering Review, Of San Francisco
gives the following account of a trip to
the Cal-Vada Borax Company Of this
State.
"Our trip led us over the mountains
for 81 miles, at an elevation of 1000
feet, and then down on the other side
below the sea level to the borax flat.
This flat contains 1000 acres of borax
with soda and salt. When we get to
work we will haul to Wadsworth or
Winnemucca, as 1t would take eight
days to haul 54 miles over the Love-
lock mountain route
A great deal of prospecting has been
done in the surrounding hills and we
found two nickel mines lying idle
for want of funds to continue work.
Holes have been sunk all over for COP
per, silver and gold. Mr.. Boyer, of
Boyer's Station, and Mr.. Van Wag-
enen have two Of the best properties
there. | have just learned since my
return that the railroad company will
send a line man to Reno, whose duty
1t will be to look after mining and cat
tie interests. Churchill county owns
its own telephone lines and assures US
they will extend it to u works, giving
us a free telephone oyer $50 miles of
wire, our only cost being the rental Of
two telephones, n at the works, one
at the Superintendent's quarters at
Boyer's Station. The Cal-Vada Com
pany will purchase a steam traction
engine which will haul three trailers of
six tons or SO each. | took several
good views Of our plant along the trip
from Lovelock. II the traction engine
proves satisfactory the copper companies
will no doubt follow our example. as
the long, dry haul is hard on stock.
There is abundance of water along the
base Of the hills. Wells can be sunk
from l8 to Is feet, securing enough
water. but of a too saline nature to
feed boilers. Fuel will be oil, stored
at Wadsworth, should we decide to
adopt that route.
Mr.. Fred Formhalls, who accom-
panied your correspondent, was the
first to discover borax in Nevada,
working there in the '70's.
The Cal-Vada Borax Company
owns 1920 acres, Churchill county,
Cottonwood canyon), 81 miles from
Lovelock, Nevada. 1t is estimated
that each acre contains $4,000 square
feet Of borate deposit. averaging |
pound to the foot. a total of 1880
tons Of raw material. which will go 10
per cent. borax, this will yield 4l26
tons OF refined borax.
The company will only be able to
harvest 1000 tons annually thus taking
four years to harvest the entire surface
deposits as the ground is very rich with
saline matter in which the company
gets its borax. 1t will take upward OF
so years to exhaust the field, The
top or surface is very dry and hot, but
down about II or eighteen inches 1t Is
quite dry and moist and full Of saline
sedement and within S feet in many
places the strong alkali water is found
which is drawn to the surface and ma
ture evaporates and crystalizes the raw
material ready for the harvester fol
many years to come. At least IS pei
cent. of the surface product will be
gathered every four years, from past
indications"
