A BIG TELLURlUM STRIKE
The Blalock Mine on Grave Creek
Has Riches Like Cripple Creek.

Reports were current during the
first of this week among the mining
men OF this city that big strike Of
tellurium had been made on Grave
creek. As this is the first tellurium
found in this district the discovery
aroused considerable interest IN
mining circles OF this city. Thurs.
day j. II. Blalock, who with his son,
r. S. Blalook are the discoverers ana
owners Of the property, was in Grants
Pass aud gave for the Courier the
exact particulars Of the extent and
value Of the find.
Mr.. BlalOck in company with his
brother, g. W. Blalook, has for several
years operated with a giant a placer
mine on Eastman guloh just above
where it emptIes into Grave creek,
four miles east Of Placer They
found good values as long az they
worried below what they called a
slate dyke, but on going above it they
could hardly find color. This bed

brother not believing that the slate
appearing rock was OF value declined
to 90 in on the expense Of locating IL
as a quartz claim Mr. BlalOck then
took IN his son Il S Blalock, and they
took up the claim and sent samples

and in Portland, Both assays
showed almost similar values and
that the ore ran up into thousands OF
dollars per ton From the surface

these stringers extend to any depth
the Blalocks have fortune at theii
command. They have begun work on

feet o. more when they will drift each
way on the vein and ascertain it'

WATER FROM ROGUE RIVER
Many Irrisating Pumps Installed
-LnrRe Areas 10 Be Irrigated.

The time is not distant when the
hanks of Rogue river will be lined
with pumping plants for irrigating
purposes, ranging in size from the
monster water power pumps of the
Golden Drift Company to the little
gasoline power pump that can only
supply water for a garden patch.
Securing water for irrigation by
gravity systems has been carried on snc-
cessfully since white men began 10
cultivate land IN this valley but II
has only been in tho last few years
that the installation OF pumping
plants was begun So successful ana
profitable has this method OF lrrlga-
tion proven that there are now fully
hun red Of these pumps in operation
in Rogue River Valley. Most Of
them are on the banks Of Rogue river,
but many are on the smaller streams,
while many arc used for pumping
water from wells.
Heretofore irrigation by water
from pumping plants has been only
employed in "a small way, five and ten
acres being about NJ large tracts nc
was attempted, but this year much
larger plants are being installed and
large fields will be watered from
pumps. One Of the largest pump
ing plants that is being put in
is that now being installed by
john Ranzau, the big hopgrower
at his farm on Rogue river six miles
west Of Grants Pass. Mr.. Ranzau has
eIwaasVh thn llruntg DugG
Hardware Company, ~ II. +. Raso-
line engine and a pump having a
capacity of l,000 gallons per minute.
With this outfit he expects to fully
irrigate his hop field OF 100 acres and
do II at "A cost that will make the in
vostment profitable one, With
water on his hopyard Mr., Ranzau ex-
poets TO increase the yield fully 10
per cent and secure larger and
higher grade of hops, Irrigation Of
hops was begun In small way last
year by some Of the growers and 50
profitable did II prove that eventually "
all the yards in the Valley will be
placed under irrigation.
The cost of irrigatinR per acre by
pump averages about the same as by
ditch. Most Of the bitches are from
one to eight miles long and the cost
of building and maintaining them
fully equals the cost of installing and
operating a pumping plant. With the
immense volume OF water that Rogue
river flows during the summer
months, Its flow being maintained
during the dry season by the melting
snow Of the mountains in which It
rises, it will be possible by means OF
pumping plants TO irrigate every acre
Of land in the valley and make of
Rogue River Valley one of the garden
spots of the world.
