NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

on the Captain Jinks between two veins
and to which cross-cuts are now being
run at that level. On their Big Four a
new shaft is being sunk to go to the 200
foot level; this is to be the operating
shaft, as an incline was run on the vein
last year to a like depth and which
showed the ore to be permanent and of
high value and the vein to be of good
size. On the Wild Hog the same people
are sinking a shaft on a large vein of
low grade ore. On the Johnny a con-
tinuation of the granulated quartz lead
has been opened which ly being worked
further on by the King Richard Gold
Mining Company, of Detroit, Mich
1t is rumored that reorganization of
the company owning the Strawberry
has been effected, and that work will
be commenced there in a short time.
This is very gratifying to the camp. as
the owners of the Strawberry have
spared neither money nor trouble to de-
velop the mine, they having installed at
a heavy expense the finest plant of ma
chinery in the camp, with air compress
sor and machine drills, good pumps,
steam hoist etc. They had opened up a
good body of ore at the 100 foot level of
shipping grade at the old prices for
copper, but the slump in copper coming
as it did hit them hard as it has many
others in different camps, with the re-
suit that they have been idle for some
time.
In addition to those mentioned, there
are several other companies operating
in different parts of the camp. some of
which are showing up in good shape.
There is also considerable work being
done at Hopewell, a few miles north of
Bromide Camp proper which is in
practically the same mineral belt.
The Bromide District Assay Office is
a new enterprise in this camp, being es-
tablished short time ago by Charles
M. Taylor, a local mining engineer who
has been a resident of the district for
several years past. 1t Is located at the
head of Cow Creek, near the center of
the camp, and is perhaps as complete
an assay plant as is to be found in the
territory. In addition a small sampling
works with capacity Of up to 500
pounds mill-run is projected, and will
likely be installed in short time.
The Bromide district has been much
hampered by the lack of capital to
develop it's resources, but
within the last year its stability has
been demonstrated, which has resulted
in bringing in sufficient capital to open
many new properties, which have with
out exception, shown better values and
larger quantities of ore as depth was
gained. Several of the companies loca-
ted here are idle at present, but we are |
assured that the majority of them will, |
in very short time, commence work |
again in developing their various prop |
critics, as the panic caused by low |
priced copper is beginning to subside, it |
now being demonstrated that copper |
can and is being produced here at a |
profit in spite of the present low prices
For the metal. With that assured, and |
the larger amounts of silver and gold |
being found as depth is gained, it is
certain that, given the necessary time
FOR development this camp will in the
near future be a rival to the largest

The largest sum of money ever paid
for book was 100000 francs, an
amount equal to $4,000. This sum was
paid by the German government for
a "Missal" formerly owned by Pope
Leo x, and by him presented to Henry
VIII. of England, along with the parch-
ment which conferred on that monarch
the title of defender of the faith,"s
title which has since been borne by
all Saxon rulers. In the time of Charles
II. the "Missal" was presented to the

A Note ON Winter Feeding,

The farmer who has a silo filled with
good corn ensilage, little mixed hay
and some corn in the crib can settle
the winter feeding question easily and
economically, since all he needs to sup
plement the farm products is a nitro
genous concentrate, says corre-
spondent of National Stockman. The
feeder who has neither silage nor
roots will find it more difficult to de-
eide in regard to his winter feeding,
for, instead ofdepending upon the lax
alive effect of ensilage to keep the
cattle in good condition, he will be
obliged to use some commercial by
product for this purpose. Of these.
linseed meal and bran have this effect
upon cattle in a pronounced manner.
Although both these feeds are at the
present time very high, more or less
of one or both of them must be fed,
since it is absolutely necessary if the
best results are to be obtained to keep
milking cows or feeding cattle in good
normal condition.

QUESTION OF PATIENCE.
stubborn Calves Are Not yanquisnsA
by Stubborn Feeders, But Readily
Yield to Kindness.

The skim milk calf has come to stay,
Men have learned by experiments.and
by careful feeding that skim milk is the
cheapest and best feed for calf, espe-
cia.,y for the dairy calf. The greatest
trouble is the danger of over-feeding.
Most people seem to think that because
skim milk isn't very rich they must
give the calf lots of it, so they pour
it down him by the bucket, without
stopping to think what calf's stomach
is like, and the result is that they soon
have & lot of "pot-bellied" calves,
writes j. L. Smith in the Kansas
Farmer.
When the calf is few days old he is
taken away from the cow and put into
u pen or shed to be taught how to drink
skim milk. Then the fun commences.
If the calf will not drink the milk right
off, and is little stubborn, the fellow
who is trying to feed him usually gets
mad, jumps straddle of the calf's neck,
backs him up in a corner, grabs hold OF
the calf's head with both hands,
and rams it down in the milk to the
bottom of the pail. Then the calf gets
mad and bawls, and tries to get away,
gets strangled, and finally succeeds in
spilling the milk.
1t is best to have little patience
with the calf, and remember that it
does not have very much sense at first.
After it has sucked the cow two or
three times it should be taken away
and put in good, clean pen and fed
on it's mothers milk for a week or
two. Then begin to gradually reduce
the whole milk and add little skim
milk each day, until within couple of
weeks it will be on skim milk alone.
A good substitute for the fat removed
is little cornmeal given after drink
ing. This will also keep them from
sucking each other. Over feeding, ir.
regular feeding, or feeding cold, sour
milk is apt to cause scours with the
calves. -.....
TO feed skim milk fresh from the
hand separator on the farm is the best
way, because it is always warm and
sweet. The skim milk from the cream
cry is all right, but in warm weather
it will not keep sweet very long unless
it is sterilzed we'll and thoroughly
cooled when brought home.

From an Authors Journal.

Following is an extract from the
journal of an author who has not been
fortunate enough to write successful
novel:
"Rose at five and thought out plot
for short story.
Eat eight I rang the breakfast bell,
moved the chairs around the table and
ratified the knives to fool the neigh
bors.
"Wrote two poems on the world as
great place to fast in; also a short ar
ticle to prove that appetite is mere
delusion.

WAR ON MOSQUITOES.
Recent Reports Show That Good Re-
suits Have Been Obtained by
Havana Authorities.

It is several months since the pub.
lie has heard anything of particular
interest concerning Havana's war on
the mosquito. Possibly some persons
have imagined that because the sub
ject ceased to figure in news dis
patches this method of preventing
yellow fever had been less successful
than it promised to be. How errone-
Gus such an idea, if it exists really is,
is proved by the contents of the last
report of Maj. w. C. Gorgas, U. S. A.,
chief sanitary officer of Havana. This
report is for the month of October
and shows that whereas this month
has been ordinarily one of the Sc
verest of the year so far as yellow
fever mortality is concerned, this
year there was not a single death
from the once much dreaded scourge.
During the last ten years the maxi
mum number of deaths from yellow
fever for the month of October was
in 1896, when total of 24O was
reached. The minimum was in 1899,
when tht deaths numbered 25. The
average for the month during the ten
years has been 66.27 deaths, and it is
evident, as Maj. Gorgas observes, that
complete exemption of the city from
fatal cases of yellow fever is not the
result of mere chance, says the Troy
Times. u...
Maj. Gorgas declares with emphasis
that the real reason why the yellow
fever mortality is less is that re-
lentless war has been waged upon the
mosquitoes that have hitherto trans
mitted the disease from one person
to another. It is true that the SAM
tary conditions of the city have been
much improved, but this has contrib
uted only in small degree to the ex-
cellent results. The October figures
alone are cause for congratulation,
but when Maj. Gorgas adds that there
has not been a single death from yell
low fever in the entire city of Havana
since April 1, although the average
for these months had been 362.16, it
is evident that results almost ap-
pcoximating the miraculous have
been secured. It must be admitted
that Maj. Gorgas is the best author
ity as to what produced these re-
suits, and his findings should, there
fore, encourage the world to fight
with vigor that the mosquito may be
exterminated.

Harner's sarcasm went for naught.
The soldier did not comprehend it, and
apparently did not care to. His only
reply was vaguely put. II suppose I
would" he said, "but you'll do this for
me, won't you?"
"Of course not"
"Why won't your"
Simply because I won't" said
Harner, with emphasis.
The soldier stood as if undeter-
mined what to do. Then he looked up
and said: "Well, never mind, for
you'll have to do it, anyhow"

more seriously, "you're too young to
die. Your country needs you even
if your sweetheart doesn't"
Blushing deeply and stammerlng

The battle was fought. Through
out the conflict Harner was here,
there and everywhere getting facts
and names and details. There was
no time in that awful slaughter to
notice trifes. Human lives were as
cheap as grass and were moved
down as mercilessly. So it happened
that it was not until several days
later when the papers containing the
reports reached the moving army
that Harner observed his own re-
port: .....

MUST HAVE GOOD ROADS.
Their Establishment IL Essential to
the Maintenance of Rural Free
Delivery Routes.

Good roads are one of the features
necessary to the establishment of rural
free delivery routes. 1t is evident that
the post office department meant bust
ness when it declared at the start that
no free delivery routes would be
maintained over poor roads. Not only
must the roads be good in the begin
ming, but they must be kept in proper
order, or the route will be abolished.
An eastern postmaster recently re-
ceived the following letter, which
shows plainly the attitude of the post
office department.:
reports recently received show that
the roads Travelled by rural carrier
from your office are in bad condition
and likely to be impossible in bad
weather. You will please notify the
patrons of routes one and two that the
present lack of attention to these
roads will, if continued, be likely to en-
danger the permanency of the rural
free delivery service there.
"A rural carrier cannot possibly
make regular time or perform efficient
service over poor roads, particularly
during the winter and spring months.
The summer is the time for mending
these highways, which are really serv-
ing as post roads, and which should
always be in passable condition for
the transport Of mail 1t is the hope
of the department that the patrons
who are receiving the benefit of the
service appreciate it, and that an ef-
fort to repair all deficient portions be-
fore winter sets in, SO that the perma-
nency of rural free delivery service
may be insured."-Orange Judd

was the bravest fool ever saw. I
suppose they buried him with the
rest"
After the war Harner did not re-
turn to his paper. The editors who
had mutilated his copy and against
whom he had an accumulated an
tipathy equal to that which Gen.
Sherman had expressed against the
war correspondents, whose useful
ness Harner could prove, was first
pointed out by Gen. George Washing
ton, was still in charge and he did
not feel like coming directly
under their orders. So he tried
other things, but as the years went
by and the other things did not make
him rich he succumbed to the inevi-
table and entered journalism again.
To him was given rowing commits
sion to visit and write up the places
where the conquests of industry were
making the wealth that was to pay
the debts of war.
In the course of time his duties
took him to Spring Falls, a village
which had become a city, with its
splendid water power utilized, with
great manufactures on every side.
He saw it all, and finally he saw upon
the side of large mill: civilian H.
Monsoon" The name seemed strange
ly familiar, and yet he could not
place it. 1t was gone amid all the
thousands of forgotten things in the
crowded years. ..
But the next morning it came like
| flash.
And then the story. Col. Monson
told it at his own fireside after Har-
ner had been presented to his wife as
the man who had refused to report
him dead.

eyes, but it was all a mistake.
They thought I was, but I wasn't.
In fact, it was almost as untrue as
the report which reached me the day
before the battle that certain young
lady had thrown me over"
| And after that came the expert
ences so interesting to hear in times
of peace that were SO hard to know
in the days of war.
