THE OUTLOOK FOR THE
YEARS WHEAT CROP

The relation of the wheat crop to the
general prosperity of the country ma
turally attracts public attention TO the
estimates Of the probable yield for the
year. Next to hay and cotton, the
wheat crop Is the most valuable pro-
duct of American agriculture. Aa Sec
retary Wilson OF the Department of
Agriculture said In his last report, the
wheat product In recent years has
ranged from 600 to 750 million bushels
which was worth 10 the farmer from
$3.50 ,000. 900 to $3.50 100000, while the
value OF the cotton crop. including
seed has reached $530.0o0. 900. The
value of the hay crop ranges from
$3.50 900 900 to $3.50 900 900.
James ] Hin. whose extensive car
rying interests In the Northwest make
him a careful student of crop condi-
tions. is quoted as making the state
ment that the wheat crop OF the Unit
ed States this season will not reach
over G00.000.0O0 bushels. This is re-
garded az short crop. AMI the state
ment of Mr., Hin Is therefore looked
upon a. q pessimistic one.

RICH
GOLD
FIND

For several days there has been
talk on the streets OF a phenomenaily
rich strike OF gold ore In the La pla
tas. The Herald heard of 1t the day
the report reached town. but was en-.
Joined to secrecy by the parties from
whom the Information was obtained
The news, 1t Is said. Ia not yet ripe
Tor publication. but as 1t is common
street gossip. and an intmation of the
facts having been published by Il local
paper. such facts are herewith given
as are at hand.
George Dotson, while prospecting on
the La Plata river, discovered some
1t carefully in order TO find where II
came from, and after a dlligent search
he was rewarded by finding an ore
shoot, or chimney. as he called ii. on
a patented claim. He did enough work
to satisfy himself that he had the
source from which the float came. and
panned quantity OF the ore and oh.
tanned little bottle OF free gold The
quartz where he made the opening
was very rich in free gold.
He first satisfied himself that the
ore was on patented ground-an old
claim. it appears. which had not been
worked Tor many years He came to
town and showed his bottle of gold to
few parties and told them the story
OF his find. but did not at that time re-
veal the location of the claim.
He left for Denver the next morning
for the expressed purpose OF seeing
the owner or owners OF the property
and getting bond and lease.
He returned to Durango from Den
yer couple of days ago, and what
success he met with could not be
learned. Rumor has it, however that
the owner of the rich ground is com
ing in to inspect the property. and it
Is the general belief among Dotson's
friends that he talked too much and
took too many people into his con
fidence, and that the owner OF the
ground has eithed learned of the
strike or become suspicious and is
coming in to see for himself
You can't keep such secret as
that" said a friend OF Dotsons this
morning. He told too many people
dbout 1t. and now | doubt II he will
get any benefit from his discovery
When man makes "A rich gold strike
he'd better not open his mouth to
anyone about 1t until he gets 1t hxed

Why, that was the way Tom Walsh
got the Camp Bird. He discovered
ore values where the owners of the
lease for thirty days. He could just
as well have paid cash, but he was
afraid to offer cash for fear OF excit-
Ing suspicion. He took up the bond
half an hour after IL was recorded
paying 1880 And this liz why we
have the Camp Bird instead of an un-
known and worthless claim"
