MIR. c. Lee Moore Also an Applicant
Board of Public Works to Make but

Friends of Colonel A. S. Buford, of this
city, have induced him to allow the use
OF his name for a place in the new
Corporation Commission. and they are
now hard at work in his interest.
There is no man in Virginia possibly
who is more widely known among the
people, who would be most interested
in the personnel of the Commission. he
having had long experience, both as
high official and as a constructor OF rail-
roads in Virginia. Colonel Buford was
al one time the president Of the South
ern Railroad when it was the old Rich
rnond and DanvilIe and has long been In
timately associated with strong business
interests here and elsewhere in the State
He has several times served with dis
tinction in the Legislature and enjoys
a wide and favorable acquaintance with
the public men of the State Colonel
Buford will undoubtedly have strong
backing for place on the Commission,
and his friends are saying that he would
make an admirable officer.
In view of the fact that the Corpora
ton Commission will go into Office so
early next year, it is upnderstood that
the Board of Public Works, which meets
at the Capitol to-day to begin the work
of assessing railroad and steamboat
property, will not make a great many
changes in the assessments of last year,
and then their work will therefore not
consume a great deal of time OF course,
there will be some changes but not
nearly so many as are usually made are
anticipate
The field is filing up rapidly with
strong candidates for Corporation Com
mission The friends of Mr.. c. Lee
Moore. chief clerk to Auditor Marye. have
decided to urge his claims for place
on the commission instead of for clerk
to the commission, and it is under
stood that they are already at work on
that 1ine.
Mr. Moore is man Of wide experience
in the very lines that would best fiji
him for one Of the commissioners. having
been first clerk in the Auditors office and
secretary to the Board OF Public Works
for nearly twenty years. He Is q splen.
did type of; the real Virginia gentleman
and has friends in almost every sector
of the State. 1t is thought that he will
be especially strong in the Eighth Con
gressional District. his home being II

ing his characteristic silence with regard
to his proba BILE appointments on the Cor

! upon the authority of those close to Hi:
Excellency that he regards the places OF
the utmost Importance. and that wher
the time arrives for him to act, he viii
pick out three from among the highes
and most broad-minded men in the State
He is known to believe that no mistake
should be made in a matter so vital t.
the varied interests involved, and tha
he will exercise the; greatest possible
care in making his selections.

The ranchers on the Truckee mea-
dows are becoming alarmed because
OF the lack OF snow on the mountains
The summit is nearly bear.
For snow storms to do material good
they must come early in the season so
that drifts will form in the canyons
and freeze The various companies
along the river that develop water po-

the latest in years that the mountains
have remained practically bare.-Jour-

The Mill is Running

The Gardner mill is busily employ
ed on big run OF Delaware ore. The
run so far has been the most satisfac-
tory as the battery assays have been
higher than at any other run. The
boys expect to bring in quite a bar OF
bullion when the clean up is made
which will be the early part OF this
week
At the mine work is progressing iav
orably, with the ore showing a slight
Improvement. The Delaware is the
only mine that is really producing bull
lion in this valley, and although the
ore is low grade, the Gardner boys
have demonstrated that they make the
property pay. With this kind OF a
showing before the prospectors and
the showing they are making it seems
that d mining boom OF real good tc
the community is on. II this low grad,
ore can be made to pay, the claim,
that are known to exist with high
e grade OF quartz will result i'll som,
handsome profits TO the mine owner
who are putting in time and money.

To Develope the Mine.

Will Day and George Cowlng have
put two men to work on their copper
mine east OF the city. The property
has produced some very rich copper
ore. and the interested parties believe
that with depth the ledge will widen.
From the character or the ore it will
take only a small streak OF it to make
the holders rich. This property is Sit
uated in one OF the richest mineral
belts in this section, as in every hill
and in every canyon float OF good quail
ity can be found. They did consider
able work on the claim last year and
have out quite quantity OF ore.
When the smelter is in operation they
will make a shipment as they figure
that they have out enough to justify
the expense. This is only one OF the
good claims that is located across the
river. From the present count ten
men are working on claims outside Of
the owner and there promises to be
a number OF others go to work inside
OF couple OF weeks.

THE EGG BUSINESS.

Recently there has been a
great deal done along the line of
producing the 200-egg hen. We
have a great many more 2OO-ego
1t rs now than we hads Years
ago. AS the work goes on pro
ducing these hens, sitters are
getting oroportionately scarce.
Slttcrs have always been scarce
at time when thew are most
needed. In the late winter and
early spring they are far too
scarce, and later in the season
they become too numerous. Tie
2OC-egg hen has not come to the
full development desired, and
she is not as easily prod uced IS
some egg producers would like
to have her. We would rather
see good producers of eggs more
common rather than a few 200
egg hens that are far too few.
A great many have 2OO-egg hens
who have far to few of .hem and
they are not able to repeat the
business year after wear.
While the north is looking and
laboring to obtain the 20O.egg
hen, the farmers and poultrymen
OF the Southwest are spending
more time with the hens that Law
about one-half as many eggs,
but they lay them when they are
most needed. Oklahoma, Ark
ansaw and Texas are becoming
moreand more important sources
OF egg supply every year This
section OF country is far enoug h
south so as to be comparatively
free from winter conditions tina
formerly produced great
scarcely of eggs about January
or February every few years.
The poultry bushes has reach
ed that point where win.
ter's dearth of eggs will be a
thing forgotten in the near future.
y When this business gets to what
ut appears it will be, and when
the cold storage gets in it's work
IS. here will be but few seasons of
ethe year when there can be a
carcety of eggs.
