which premium will be placed in es- crow in the Bank of Bisbee for one year.
 The Collard property, purchased by the Gold Nugget Mining company, con- sists of seventeen claims. The gold bearing ledge can be traced on the surface of nine of these claims; the other claims cover all the ground that is available on the pitch and trend Of these veins. There are two parallel veins, one varying in width from four teen inches to three feet, covered on its trend by the Golden Fleece and seven other extension claims. The Nugget vein varies from six inches to four feet, and is covered for four thou sand feet on its trend by the Nugget claims Nos. and 3. A depth of 1000 feet can be had by tunneling on the ledge on Nugget claim No. l. An average of eight samples taken on the Nugget No. and Fleece No. l went s46 to the ton. An average of twelve assays on five of the claims went s29 to the ton.
 The property is paid for, and all the money received for this stock will be applied to the development of the mine. The capitalization Is $500, 900. Stock is s1 per share, and sold at par value. Applications for stock will be received at the Bank of Bisbee or by Pritchard & Jones, room 5, postoffice building.
 The surface rock has been mined by the Indians long ages past. There are between 150 and 250 mortars in the granite, varying in depth from six inches to two feet. where they extract ed the gold from the loose quartz in the canyon.

placed their hard earned cash on the Arizona mining gambles.
 More than that the local officials are not prone to indulge in any of the boom talk which So often eminates from the officials at the head of many stock jobbing propositions. While they are always pleased to see the market quotations of their properties looking good, they are not inclined to be in the boosting" business. This is simply because they have no per. sonal ends to serve in that manner and are willing to wait until the mine has a chance to prove up and pay dividends. If it results in failure there will be no whining as the Calu- met stock speculator is usually good gambler and takes his losses with as much grace as possible. What ever he thinks or however mean he feels about it, he never makes a hol- Ter.
 Dividends Will Help Some.
 One Calumet financial man in talk ing of the conditions respecting the Arizona properties and the market values of the stocks said that he didt look for any big boom in any thing until the Calumet & Arizona paid its dividend. A great deal de- pends upon that dividend. If it is s2.50 as a great many of the heaviest stockholders hope and believe it will be. the company will have made good the expectations of its most enthusi- astic friends. If it is less than that, and there is no gainsaying the possi- bility of the directors deciding upon Obtaining a great big surplus and paying a smaller dividend, it will not result in arousing any enthusiasm over the Arizona propositions.
 A dividend of s2.5O on Calumet & Arizona will place at least s300,000 if not more, cash in circulation in Cal umet. But the actual cash put on the local market will be a small consid. eration compared to the moral influ- ence which the payment will have up on the conditions of the Calumet mar ket for Arizona properties.

Is good drive into the country. The
Willamette valley just now has her
best foot forward, is in her prime. and
the sights to be seen in any part from
an agricultural standpoint are without
comparison. She has no peer for fer.
tility, and beauty, and this is the time
of the year to see her In all her glory.
The writer made a drive the other
day Of 25 miles which compels him TO
enthuse a little. and he wants TO give
It vent in the columns of The Journal.
To start with, that road from Salem to
Halls Ferry has been improved to
such an extent that Il Is a pleasure to
drive over every inch Of II. II has been
graveled nearly all the way. and
where the gravel has not been worn
down to a comfortable surface there
is a smooth hlrt road at the side which
Is practically nolseless. The travel on
this road has grown to such an extent
that the business OF the ferry at the
other end has grown wonderfully. A..
ID. Pettyjohn. who manages the boat
is crowded with work. and the excel
lent service as well as the good piece
OF road deserve II. The drive from the
other side TO Independence and ten
miles beyond is a marvel. Il reveals

to any region on earth. Gold mines
cannot compare yith II for actual pro
duction. There is probably more TAX.

In the way Of products than all the
gold mines on the coast. The fine farm
homes, the great barns. and the con.
veniences and luxuries enjoyed by the
people, all attest 10 this hard fact.
The hop yards are generally looking
better than was expected a few weeks
ago. and every other crop is simply

until all average up to the highest
oregon standard. There is much fine
clover visible in all sections as far m
as Corvallis. and il is evident that our
farmers have finally accented this as
one OF the essential crops. Consider.
aole OF the vetch is also in evidence
ana this will in time win it's place
JUST as clover has. Many good patches
OF rape were seen. sown for hogs and
in fact the growing numbers Of the
substantial porker are a very promls
ing sign. The Poland chinas and
Berkshires seem to predomlnate and
many well bred animals are to be
seen.
Good herds of Jerseys everywhere
attest to the growth Of the dairyins
interests, as do also the ever present
cream cans at the front gates of
large majority OF the farmers. The
Independence and Jefferson cream.
cries. both Of which are conducted
under one management, are scattering
thousands Of dollars OF wealth. and at
the same time are serving as educa.
tors Of the thrifty farmers OF both
sexes.
Another glaring evidence of pros.
perity is the presence OF frequent
herds of good stock cattle, promin.
ent among these breeds being the
shorthorn and white faced varieties.
A lady who is a devoted friend of the
latter was condemnlng the meek.eyed
little Jersey. when she was asked
what was better than good rich milk.
Jersey cream and rich yellow butter
such as these little dairy maids pro.
luce when she answered. "wen. a
oit o beef occasionally" This was
certainly pertinent and the colloouy
served TO prove that both varieties
serve a great purpose in our domestic
economy. Surely, there's room for all
IN our broad acres.
A great church and temperance
worker was met who made a fortune
m OF hops last year and he confessed
hat the growth OF his interests in this
Inc was becoming somewhat embar
'ssing, as the production OF the fes.
I've vine must certainly add TO the
consumption Of the hop Juice. and the
'oor man didn't seem TO know lust
where his duty lay. He admitted
Ioweyer that his treasure was in the
Iops. and that possibly his heart was
necessarily there also. Il must be
'retty tough 90 embarass yourself IN
hat manner but the gentleman in
uestion seemed 70 be enjoying good
ealth.
II Is a noticeable fact that the rural
rec delivery boxes used In Polk coun.
nearly all bear the names OF the
'atrons, which Is great convenience
o people travelling through the coun.
ny, and II would be well II Marion
'ounty people would follow suit. Ey.
'rbody using a rural delivery box
hould have his or her name upon the
OK for the. convenience OF his or
riends.
Another thing that is brought prom. I
