Agriculture, which is the main indus

careful attention in the United States
census report, which has but recently
been issued, There are several chap
tiers In the bulky volume when have
been devoted to the subject Of agricul-
ture with interesting and valuable re-
suits. Special schedules were prepared
for the taking of census statistics from
the plantations. Even so the greatest
difficulty was experienced in procuring
accurate statements, since the majority
OF the farms had been abandoned
throughout the war and were still I'M
settled. Travelling over miles OF rough
country the census enumerators found
everywhere devastation and ruined
homes, still deserted and uncared for.
Tending TO complicate matters also was
the fact that many of the plantations
had been divided into small patches of
ground In order to avoid the taxes
levied even on the smallest subdivision
of ground at the rate of So. The ma
tority of the tenants resulting were
but of temporary residence and were
able to give almost no information con
corning the land and its productive
ness. The schedules which were after
much work returned therefore are
somewhat defective. Previous to the
last war there were in Cuba 90,960
plantations, farms. orchards and cattle
ranges, which were valued at 100000
900 pesos, or about $200,000,000 The

Cattle Raising Formerly General.
In the early days Of the island cattle
raising was the principal industry, ag-
riculture being very generally disre-
garded. The land was held in great
open ranges, privately owned but un-
fenced and almost unguarded, like one
great wild country. The chief agricul-
tural products of Cuba are now tobacco
and sugar, with some Embarrassing,

ing of California. At present there Is

Tobacco is raised as an article of COM
merce in but four of the six provinces
of Cuba, Pinar del Rio, Habana, Santa
Clara and Santiago de Cuba, although
there is no question but that il could he
advantageously raised in the other two.
One of the Industries which is now
practically dead, but which was form
erly the source of wealth and fame to
the island, is coffee raising. 1t is one
of the industries for which IA great flu
ture is promised, since ii is known that
for richness, flavor and the productive
capacity of the trees the coffee of Cuba
is not surpassed by that of any other

History of Coffee Production.
In the years 1913 and 1916 violent
hurricanes visited Cuba and seriously
damaged the coffee crop. Owing to
these disasters the increased coffee
trade of the East Indies and South
America and the larger and more GER
tain profits of sugar cultivation, the
coffee industry of Cuba rapidly de-
CIDeu ana DN lSpU the amount export
ed was but 192,O60 arrobas. The cof-
fee plantations were converted to other
uses and the trade in coffee practically
disappeared. The worlds estimated
coffee crop of 1900 is 15.2S5.OOO bags of
134A pounds each. OF this amount
Cuba is credited with 100000 bags, not
enough for home consumption. \ con
sideration of these facts may result in
the revival of this important industry
which, under free institutions, ii is be
lieved will regain its former position
among the agricultural resources OF
Cuba.
The raising of stock, which used t.
be one of the important resources of the
country, is no longer of any Importance

ID. A. Mills states that he is getting
good copper ore in the face of the drift

A shaft 18 feet deep has been sunk
on the Madonna claim, but it has not
reached the ledge.
1t is reported that the tunnel on the
Elk mine, at Bodie camp, has run into
the vein on good milling ore.
Work has been suspended on the
Palo Alto, as the water was causing
so much trouble that it took about half
the time to bail it out
Superintendent NJ Ediams of the
Muldoon, on st. Peters creek, has been
showing some splendid specimens of
copper-lead ores from the mine.
The Quilp is still taking out very
rich ore from the raise, which is about
60 feet above the floor of the 200 foot
level. Considerable free gold is visible
to the naked eye.
The Quilp mine, Superintendent
drummer says, never looked better
than it does now. The ore stope, south,
on the No. 3 level, is fully IL feet in
width the full size of the vein.
In the Black Tail and San Poll mines
there is nothing new to note. Neither
the prosecuting in the one nor the
drift in the other has brought any
thing to light of interest during the
past week
A rich strike on the Bodie has been
made. Indications that the ledge will
prove to be wide one. 1t has been cut
for six feet.
The Chico drift is still in fine pay
ore. There is about 8 feet of high grade
ore. There is a good deal of water to
contend with, but it can be easily hand
led now, and it is not thought there
will be any trouble in the future
Drifts are being run north and south
on the 800 foot level of the Princess
Mand. In the face of each drift the
ledge is feet wide and the quartz is of
high grade. Only about 40 feet of
drifts have been run on that level
Work is progressing rapidly on the
Flag Hill. The drift is in 80 feet. The
ledge is four feet wide There are fine
walls on both sides, and the ledge no
longer freezes to either. The values
are said to run from $40 to $45 per ton.
The ore in both the second and third
levels of the Morning Glory has not
changed in width. and it is not less val
liable than heretofore. The second lev
ell has been driven 40 feet. There is
considerable ore sacked ready for ship
ment to the smelter.
The Chico mine is doing nobly. A
recent assay of a general face sample
from the vein, in the north drift, ia.
ken when it was in 80 feet from the
shaft, ran 81 ounces in silver and 2S
ounces in gold, with a total market
value of $S1.56 per ton.
At the lowest depth in the Republic
mine the vein has been crosscut and
measures So feet in width at right an

But Manager Leckie says that every

MINING NOTES.

The regular monthly dividend of the
Buffalo Hump Mining Company, opera
ting the Tiger-Poorman, on Canyon
creek, Occur d'Alenes, was paid recent
ly. The dividend was of ten cents per
share, or $4,000 in all, making a total
for the company of 100000, all of
which has been paid within one year
The famous Tiger and Poorman claims
which we're located just one day apart
were consolidated some time ago under
the name of the Consolidated Tiger and
Poorman Mining Company. This COM
pany sold out it's entire holdings to the
Buffalo-Hump Mining company little
over a year ago, and since then the
property has been operated with re-
markable success. The shaft by which
the property is worked is down over
1000 feet, and in going that distance it
has paid dividends to each company
that has done the work, though it's
yield in 1900 probably far exceeds that
of any year in it's operation.

George e. Roberts, the director Of

during the calendar year 1900. The
aggregate of gold is given as 1887, 81;
fine ounces, valued at SIS, ,281, anC
of silver 59,610,543 fine ounces, which
at the approximate average price of g.

During the calendar year 1899 tn,
gold production was $71 ,053, 400, ant
the silver production 54,764,500 flint
ounces. The Nome gold and silver pro
duction for 1900 is given as 100000
