John Freise, manager of the Cold

Between Goldf1eld and Lydia,

said Mr.. Freise, there is hardly an
acre of ground that has not been

The lodges running through the
country are remarkably strong. and
MANY tremendously rich mines are
going to result from the work which
is now being everywhere inaugurated
In the Ida section of the veins are
capped with heavy iron, carrying
some copper and silver with the gold.
Beneath the Gaping the values are
run almost entirely to gold. On our
claims we get from IS to $50 in gol,!
from the surface ores. and the con-
ditions are identical with those in
neighboring properties. We have
several claims at Goldfeld also, and
we are confident that they will all
turn out well.

EFFECT OF AcETYLENE RAYS ON
GROWTH OF PLANTS.
Grow to Twice Actual Weight Of
Those Exposed to Sunlight Only
Latest Victory for This New and
Beautiful llluminant.

The experiments recently made at
Cornell University prove that the
beautiful rays from the gas, acetylene,
are as effective as sunlight on the
growth Of plants, and this may soon
become a subject for serious consider
alton by all progressive culuyators OF
the soil
The results of he experiments arc
astonishing, inasmuch as they show
concusiyely the great increase OF
growth attained by experimenting
THE Light Of Nature with The
Light of Acetylene" during the hours
in which the plants would otherwise be
in darkness. For instance, a certain
number Of radish plants subjected to
acetylene light during the night grew
to twice tie actual weight Of the same
nuu Der of radishes given daylight
only, all other conditions beng equal,
and peas had bossomed and partially
matured PODS with the help Of acety-
lene light, while without the added
light not even buds were apparent.
Acetylene is already taking It's
rlace as an illumnant for towns from
a central Plant, for lighting houses,
churches, schools and Isolated build
ings Of all kinds, and It is being used
successfully for many other purposes.
A striking and important feature Of
acetylene Is the ease and small ex-
pense with which It can be made
available compared with the great ad-
vantages derived from its use. The
machine in which the gas is gener
ated Is easily installed.
