Abbey Property.
AS each day goes by and develop
ment work progresses on the Abbey
mine, which lies about two miles
northeast of the town of Kendall. the
outlook for it becoming a great wealth
producer equal to the we'll known
Kendall and Barnes-king properties
becomes more and more certain.
The cave that was discovered last
spring. an account of which first ap-
peared in the Chronicle. mas proved
great saving in expense of develop
ment as well as opening the way to
immense ore bodies. which probably
would not have been found but for the
cave. AS 1t Is there is enough ore in
sight to justify John r. Cook and his
associates in erecting a MILL which
will be running full blast this time
next year, and the number of dinner
pals in Kendall will be increased by
the working of the Abbey property to
rs or 100 more than at present.
In the northwest end of the cave
development work commenced last
week. and. after breaking through
the crystalized lime. which formed a
coating about six inches thick upon
the walls of the cave, big body of
soft ore was encountered, and samples
that have been assayed run over IS
to the ton. There is 20 feet Of ore
in sight at the point where the crys-
talized lime is broken through and
the ledge increases in width as the
miners drift inward.
In the east drift from the cave, at
distance of about so feet, this same
ledge of ore again widens out and
takes a downward course. The Alb
hey mine, like the Kendall and Barnes
King properties. shows up better with
depth and the reef OF lime rock that
is so large at the surface narrows as
II goes down until at the $40 foot lev
ell. where work Is now going on. 1t has
almost entirely played out, and the
body of ore has increased according
ly until the sinking is now going on
in solid ore.
The cave has served as place for
dumping the waste from the lower
workings of the mine, thus saving the
expense and labor of hosting the re-
fuse to the tunnel level and wheeling
II from there to the outside dump, a
distance of about 500 feet.
Work will begin right away on a
shaft to be sunk from the surface
down through the cave to depth OF
more than 400 feet An opening will
be left in the shaft near the bottom
of the cave, through which there will
come an ample supply OF good air for
the miners working in the lower lev
els.
It will not be long before the Alb
bey mine will be a regular producer
of gold bullion and help swell the pay
roll of Kendall to a surprising ex-
tent.-Kendall Chronicle.

This mine has produced more high

the cross-cut now being run it will

The Longmaid Property.


Information is given out that the
Elkhorn mine is again to be shut down
and is likely to be permanently aban-
doned this time. says the Record.
The Longmaid brothers of Helena
acquired the property when it was
supposed 10 be worked out and their
success in handling mining properties
was hopeful indication of the old
mine being again placed on a paying
basis. While the price they paid for
the property was not large they spent
considerable sum of money in fit-
ting 1t up, first in placing machinery
in the mill, which dla not accomplish
the work expected of 1t, anu also in
stalling machinery and pumps for un-
watering the mine.
The mine has been on the verge of
closing down two or three times in
the past year. but finally favorable ar
rangements were made with the East
Helena smelter to handle the ores,
and large shipments have been made,
more ore having gone out of the camp
in the last month than was ever be-
fore shipped out in one month. The
expense of keeping the water down,
however, and the low price of silver,
have made the Longmaids efforts un-
ayailing in operating at profit.
Miners have been leaving there for
the past two weeks and only few
are left now to finish up. The pumps
are being drawn and 1t is expected
that abandonment will be nearly COM
plete at the end of this month.

The Coeur a. AIenes.


Not since the earliest history of the
Coeur d Alenes when gold was first
discovered has there been SO much
interest manifested by the general
public as at present. The immense
copper strike just made on the prop
erty of the Park Colo & Copper Min.
ing Company, located in the Bitter
Root mountains, st. Joe mining dis
trict, and about six miles south Of
the town of Mullan, Shoshone county,
Idaho, has once more proven the un.
limited mineral resources of the most
northern portion, or panhandle, of the
state. The Park property consists of
six patented claims, and is developed
by several tunnels and cross-cuts, this
latest important strike being made on
the northern slope of the hillside and
on a vein running parallel distance
of 100 feet of the main tunnel, which
is now in little over 1000 feet. Ac-
cording to survey, 60 feet driven
southerly will tap this latest strike
at a depth of between 500 aud 600
feet. The average value of the ore
is 26 per cent copper, $2.lO in silver
and $4.82 in gold. The adjoining prop

that 1t is due to the persistent efforts

Candy For Bees,

Never use anything in making candy
but the best grade of sugar, advises
New England Homestead. Boil granu-
lated sugar to thick strip and when
done so that it breaks like pipestem
when dropped in water take it off and
as it begins to harden stir 1t until so
thick it will just pour and then pour
into pans or dishes so that it hardens
in cakes about an inch thick. A differ
ent candy can be made if you can get
good extracted honey, but 1t must be of
the best quality. Heat the honey until
1t is thin, but don't boil it, and then stir
in all the pulverized sugar it will take
up. Then knead it with the hands and
work in more sugar until it becomes a
stiff dough.

1t is said to be good business policy
to have something to sell when other
people have but short supply or none,
and consequently prices are high. This
is the main idea IN winter daifying. But
few send butter to market when prices are
the highest. The directors to this plan say
that it costs more to ed cows in winter
at the barn than in summer at pasture
which is true enough but as for several
years we sold milk, barring accidents, to
deliver about the same number of gallons
day al the vilag at one season as another,
we were never able to see that it cost us
more, and sometimes thought it costs less
to keep a cow a year II her calf was drop
ped in the fall than when she came fresh
in the spring. After few trials we be-
came convinced that If we wanted to raise
a calf from one of the best cows, we had
better success with fail calf than spring
calf. When the time Came to turn il into
pasture, it was as ready to get its living
on grass or green fodder as the one that
was six months older. and the fall calf at
two years old was not behind the one of
I-2 years old, in growth or maturity.
If course, when selling milk the main
point with us was that we could get seven
cents quart in winter as easily as five
cents in summer, but while butter making
we had yearly contract at fifty cents a
pound, and even then we found that cost
and trouble of cooling cream and icing
butter for transportation in summer was
not far from making summer butter cost
about two cents pouna more than the
winter butter.-American Cultivator.
