HAULING THE MACHINERY
Equipment for Granite Hill Now
in transportation.

Several car loads Of machinery, in
cluding hoists, air compressors, drills,
engines and n mammoth l2O horse
power boiler, arrived here this week
for the American Gold Fields Co., to
be used in the equipment of the
Granite Hill mine. The work of
transporting the machinery to the
mine has begun In accessibility, the
Granite Hill has marked advantage
over the most Of the mines Of South
ern Oregon as it is reached by wagon
road. The transportation, therefore
is not 50 stupcndous an undertaking
as 1t is in many cases, though it
means hard and heavy haul at the
best. The company has been steadily
developing the property all the season
and have opened up an ore body of
great extent and carrying high values.

SIX FOOT VEIN OF ORE
Steady Increase in Size and
Qualify at Lucky Cuss.

Late developments at the Lucky
GUS, " the Applegate quartz property
which i. being developed by W. T.
Cope aud others are extremely
gratifying to the parties interested.
The tunnel has been driven a distance
Of 2s0 feet, giving vertical depth Of
40 feet At that point large ore
body is exposed The quartz vein is
about six feet wide, while the dis
tance between walls is l3 feet. The
ledge matter outside the main qua tz
vein is flied with teaks and punches
Of quartz, indicating that the whole
body will come into quartz at little
greater depth. During the whole pro-
gress Of the tunnel since first striking
the vein, there has been steady III
crease with the depth attaiEed, both
in the Dimensions Of the ore body and
in the quality Of the ore. The values
are very steady and run from s. 10 S24
to the ton.
This ledge has been worked at the
surface with good results On at
tempting to tap it at lower depth,
the tunnel failed to penetrate the
ledge. When the present manage
ment took hold of the property, a
cross cut was made from the tunnel,
the ledge was found and the tunnel
was run on the vein to its present
terminus
Tho Lucky Cuss" is situated on
Maple gulcl. tributary of the Ap-
plegato coming in from the south side
short distance below Provolt. One
Of the beauties of the property il its
oasy accessibility and the situation is
a model one for ease and facility in
handling the ore. Development will
be resumed in q short time and the
property will be Systematically shown
up and prospected. II its excellent ap.
pearance continues, as there is every
reason to suppose it will, mill Will
soon be Installed and the property
will be listed among the substantial
producers of the county.

MARK AND BRAND ON FISH
Some Possibilities of Salmon
Raising in Future.

Many of the salmon in the large
school which last entered the Colum-
bia, are found to be marked, most Of
them by having a small piece shipped
out Of the tail says the Orcgonian.
II is said that this mark was made
ON lot Of young salmon turned out
from the hatchery ON the Wcnatchcc,
one of the Washington tributaries of
the Columbia. Il will bc Of interest
to fishermen to learn whether any of
the marked fish ever win their way
back to the hatchery. They will
find the journey up the river at this
season aud in their growu.up condi,
tion much moro tiresome and appar-
emily much longer than thoir trip
downto the sea Some of the salmon
lately caught were marked with let
ters apparently, one being W, which
is supposed TO he the brand OF f. X.
Warren Some Of the fishermen have
AN idea that others are putting their
brands on the young salmon wncn,thcy
are turned out and that each one who
does tins will claim all the fish hav.
ing his brand, as stockmen claim cat
tie, and that after while the outsid.
ers can have no salmon except the
mavericks" they may pick up.
There is but little probability that
the fishermen viii ever send ont large
enough herds or schools OF salmon to
overstock the oranges" which extend
under the whole Pacific ocean, but.
judging from the run OF salmon this
season, they may some day raise such
schools that they will not be- able to
get into the mouth OF the river.
Old timers say that in early days the
salmon were so plentiful in the
Columbia that people walked across
the river ON the backs Of them dry
