Columbia Hydrnu ulie Placer.

The Columbia placer mine ON Grave
creek is working steadily with three
and four giants, the number depend
ent upon the flow OF the water.
Though this mine has one Of the best
water rights In Southern Oregon, the
flow this winter in Grave creek Is 80
light that the mine cannot be operated
to its full capacity. The equipment
Of this mine includes six giants and
in ordinary years there is plenty Of
water for their operation for six to
eight months in the year. The present
winter is Of the freak variety in the
matter OF dryness and there are few
Of the placers that are not handicap
ped by lack Of water.
The Columbia is one Of the largest
placers Of Southern Oregon and has u
superb equipment including hy-
draulic elevator which was the first
appliance Of its character installed In
this district. This elevator is not now
in operation as under the present
conditions the dump can be kept open
by means Of giant which is kept at
work piping away the debris. When
the full number Of six giants is in
operation, five Of them are kept busy
cutting and driving the dirt and
gravel to the sluices while the sixth
is used on the dump, keeping it clear
for the discharge Of the tailings.

BARN BURNS ON APPLEGATE
Serious Loss of the York Bros.
Near kubli

A large barn on the Henry York
place, on Applegate near Kubli. was
destroyed by fire on Sunday evening
with 90 tons Of hay which IL con-
tained. The barn was near the road
but about half a mile distant from the
house where the owners live. There
is no explanation Of the manner by
which IL took fire and IL is suspected
that it was the work Of All incendiary.
The first intimation that the owners
had of the fire was a roaring noise
like that OF windstorm Looking
ont, they saw the barn flaming with
light that was seen for miles up
and down the valley. A hay rake,
which was in the barn was the only
loss besides the building and the hay.
This barn was fine structure. one Of
the largest barns in the Applegste
valley and had been only recently
completed. The loss is roughly es-
timated at about sl40O, without in
surance.
The York brothers are large cattle
raisers and the loss Of the hay would
be much more serious we're it not for
the exceptional mildness Of the
present winter. the stock needing SO
little feed that the supply Of hay
remaining is amply sufficient for
feeding purposes.

Rich Ore at Horseshoe.

A rich ore body was recently uncov-
cred at the Horseshoe mine, the prop
erty of Meade s. Case, on Jones creek
in the vicinity of the Dry Diggings.
About two years ago 7. B. Meade
aud Sidney Andrew discovered a
stringer of quartz and porphyry which
yielded handsome returns in free
gold. The ore was hauled TO the
Wright quartz mill ut this place and
crushed, giving returns of about $50
to the ton. Six tons OF the ore was
hauled to Gold Hill also where it was
milled, netting six ounces of gold. AS
they sank on the vein, however, it be-

taken out and sacked. Samples were
taken from each of 20 sacks and mill
test was made by W. G. Wright and the
returns showed values of $2l0 to tho

different times show values varying
from Sl05 to 1926 to the ton. The ore
will be milled at w. g. Wright's mill
in this city.
The Horseshoe is one Of group OF
mines including the Gold King and
the Sun Dance. The Gold King has
been under development for some
time and has about 1856 feet of tunnel
work. The Sun Dance was worked
many years ago with an arrastre by
Ball, Wiley d Parnell and yielded
first class returns, much of the ore

famous Briggs gold mine being on the
south slope Of this mountain, and it
is quite likely to prove u big paying

Samples for Exhibit Wanted.

The convention to be held in Grants
Pass by the Oregon Good Roads Asso-
citation on March 30 and 81. will
bring to this city a large number OF
prominent men of the state, as we'll
as large gathering of people from
all sections of Southern Oregon. The
minerals exhibit room will be one of
the attractions of the city that many
Of them will visit. In order TO
give these visitors good knowledge
Of the mineral wealth of Southern
Oregon, the exhibit should be made
more complete than it now is and the
Grants Pass Miners Association is
making strong effort to secure ore
samples from all the gold, copper. Gin
nabsr, nickle and asbestos mines not
represented and to secure samples of
coal, iron, marble, limestone, cement
rock, the different kiuds of building
stone, mineral paint, fire and tiling
clays. In fact samples are wanted Of
every mineral found in Southern
Oregon, and that embraces about all
the minerals found on the Pacific
Coast and some found in no other
section of Oregon but in this district.
To have a fine minerals exhibit to
show the members of the Oregon Good
Roads Association is not the only
incentive that is aotuating the Miners
Association for the plan is to have
this exhibit one of the permanent
features Of Grants Pass and to be
made more complete year by year
until IL shall rank with the great
mineral exhibits of Spokane. Denver
and the other great mining centers of
the United States. This exhibit has
already become one of the attractions
to all visitors TO Grants Pass aud it
will attract hundreds to this city this
summer when the big rush of travel
is on to the Lewis and Clark fair
Among these visitors will be many of
the prominent mining men Of the
country, as well as other capitalists,
who will take advantage of the low
fair rates to visit Southern Oregon
and investigate its resources with a
view of investing II the showing,
such as can be made for this district,

Of them will be led to invest in mines
and other property to the great
financial good Of this section.
Southern Oregon has the resources
but the lack of capital has prevented
their development except to a limited
extent, and to induce capitalists to
investigate these varied and rich re.
sources is the object of the work of
the Grants Pass Miners Association
in getting up its minerals exhibit and
other advertising features
To give added interest TO the

grow a second crop of late stuff. thus
securing an increased produotiveness
to his land. The consequent profits

pense Of the coldframe and cans.
1t would be good plan for the
gardeners and melon growers OF
Rogue River Valley to try the can
method of starting plants. The can
method would entirely eliminate the
lottery feature of melon raising in
this valley, for some years the raisers
secure barely half crop and these so
late that the prices are 80 low that
there Is no profit IN the business.
This was the case last season when.
owing TO the lateness Of the spring
and the ravages Of outworms, when
these were shipped, less than half the
number Of cars that are usually sent
north from Rogue River Valley each
year. Some OF the growers had to
replant their fields as high as three
times to replace the plants killed by
outworms. These worms are seldom
so numerous as last spring, but there
are few each year and they are sure
death to young, tender melon plant.
But these pests have tho redeeming

ground becomes warm and they also

The Bennett.Makin Mine.

@. L. Mangum made trip this
week TO ths Grave creek mining
district and visited q number Of the
mineral properties Of that locality. In
regard to the reported strike at the
Bennett .Msckin mine. Mr.. msngum
said that the report that the ledge
had been reached In the lower tunnel
was somewhat premature, as about 10
feet Of tunnel yet remained to be run
before the operators expected to en-.
counter the ledge. A number OF
quartz stringeis, however, hadl been
cut in the tunnel and some Of those
carry very rich ore with plenty OF free
geld in sight.
The ledge lies on q contact Of
