Death of c. ". Rowland

The sad news reached Ely a
few days ago of the death of
Charles w. Rowland, at his
ranch, near the famous Lehman
cave, on the 9th.
A few days prior to his death
he contracted severe cold which
developed into pneumonia. AS
soon as the case seemed serious
a physician was sent for, but
death came two hours after the
doctor arrived
The deceased was 63 years of
age, and leaves surviving him a
wife, four daughters and two
sons

A bank, a large hotel and
building & loan association will
soon be added to Caliente's per-
sonnel and new, commodlous
school house will soon displace
the present building used for
that purpose.
AT this date there are no
church services held in Caliente,
but arrangements are now in
progress for the establishment of
a Catholic and Protestant
church within the next three
months.
A branch of the Salt Lake
railroad will be run from Calien-
tie through Panaca, Phoebe, Ely,
Cherry Creek and Spruce Noun
tain and on up Steptoe Valley,
to connect with the Southern Pa
cific at Wells, tapping the richest
mineral belt in eastern Nevada
and opening up IL farming coun-
try second to none in the State.
Real estate prices are lower
than in any similarly located and
growing town IN the State and
have been placed within the
reach of would be investors to
encourages immigration and
builsiing here, and investors of
sixty days ago have already seen
their properties appreciate in
value from 30 10 loo per cent.
The future of the town promises
undoubted increase in values Of
real estate, based on legitimate
growth and tae growing demand
for realty.
One of the leading railroad Of
ticials of the Salt Lake route,
while here this week on ii bnsi
ness "trip, said ! believe that
Caliante within the next year
will have 1000 inha bitants and
will become almost an identical
town with BOzeman Montana
This is conservative sketch
of Caliente S present and future
condition, and the coming year
will prove that these predictions
fore future propSerity are con
servative and will be more than
realized within the next twelve
months.
Very respectfully,
HANS OLSON.

RICH STRIKE NEAR OSCEOLA.
Five Foot Ledge of $40 Ore Found
in Lost Gem Mine.

milling gold ore are hidden away
in the mountains surrounding
Osceola has never been doubted
by mining men who have made a
study of the surroundings of the
camp, but as all lodges found
thus far have been blind, the
country could not be prospected
without expending large sums of
money.
A few feeble attempts have
been made within the last few
years to find the feeders of the
rich placer mines. but the oper-
ations were conducted, for the
most part, by inexperienced men,
on u small scale, and met with
indifferent success.
Osceola, each year for more
than twenty years, has been pro-
ducing thousands of dollars from
its placer mines without attract
ing any notice from the outside
world.
The new strike promises to
make the old placer camp what
the men who have grown gray
in digging in her hills have al
ways felt she was destined to be
the foremost gold quartz camp
of the west.

possessor Of the richest copper
mines yet developed in this dis
trict, so far as the high copper
value OF the ore is concerned.
At present there is easily ac-
cessible many thousands of tons
of ore in sight in these proper
ties, which requires only the in
stallation of a smelter to give
forth its metallic contents and
make glad the hearts of their
fortunate owners.

What promises to be one of the
most sensational strikes in
White Pine county in number
of years was made last week by
+. c. Williams and Orson Hud-
son in the Lost Gem mine, one
half mile from Osceola.
The above named gentlemen,
who are the owners of the mine,
after sinking the shaft to a depth
of sixty feet, started a drift from
the bottom of the shaft to tap the
ledge. The ledge was encoun-
tered only a few feet from the
shaft and although the drift was
in five feet on the ledge at the
time our informant left for Ely,
the other wall had not been
found
A sample Of LOCO pounds Of
the ore, was taken across the
ledge, which was reduced down
to three pounds, crushed in Il
mortar and amalgamated. The
result showed an average value
in free gold OF Sl40 per ton.
Whether the discovery is mere
ly Il deposit or Il true vein could
not be determined, but the indi-
cations point TO its being IL true
tisSurc vein.

ulation during the last six months
fully seventy five per cent; 1t
now has at least 400 bona tide
residents, which number is being
steadily augmented by invest
ors. business men and mining
men, who are crowding in from
the Eastern States every day;
not a train arrives but brings
with il from five to a dozen pros
Dactiye investors in real estate,
mines or business propositions.
There are now four general
merchandise stores, twelve Sd-
looms, six restaurants, Il drug
store, a regular practicing ply
sician. three hotels, four lodging
houses, a hot springs bathing es-
tabiishment which is 10 be
equipped within the next thirty
days. There are also two livery
stables, two blacksmith shops,
an up-to.date butcher shop, "a

three miles of CaIiente) twenty
four residences just erected by
the railroad company for It's EN-
ployees, Il new coal chute, Il IL.

Within the next sixty days a
large, well equipped hotel will
be erected opposite the site of
the new depot, aud both hot
springs will be fitted with large
cement plunge baths, and pavil-
ions, including a dance hall and
stage. Six porcelain tubs will
also be provided, and a large
park will be laid out between the
two springs. The water of these
springs is lO4 Farenheit and 98
per cent pure, containing med
ical properties valuable to their
patrons.
The climate of Caliente cannot
be excelled in the West, the tenn
parature ranging from 40 to 80
degrees, with sufficient rainfall
to raise any kind of fruits and
vegetables that can be grown
anywhere in the intermountain
or coast States.
The districts surrounding Cal
iente are rich in gold, silver, lead,
copper, and zinc, and two mills
will soon be added to the equip
ment of the mines within three
miles of the town site.
The entire town site has been
surveyed and plated and streets
laid out. Many of these lots
have been sold and buildings are
being erected on u score of them.
Prices of lots in the business
portion of the town range from
5000 to $500 for 5O-foot front and
125 feet deep, while half-acre
tracts lying west of and adjoin-
ing the town site and but eight

HINTS ON FEEDING

Not much comes from the udder of
COW that is not first put into her
mouth. To own well bred dairy COW
with perfect form and every appear
ance of a great producer does not
mean that she will produce well with
out the best of feed and care Breed
ing in the dairy cow enables her to
make better use Of the raw material
given her. The good cow we'll fed
and managed will usually pay as much
profit as two or three common cows,
and in some cases it has been found
one COW yielded as much actual profit
as WAS obtained from ten others in
the herd
Roots as Dairy Feed.
In our corn raising states compare
lively little attention is paid to the
feeding of roots. European and many
Canadian farmers make much of them
as Il feed for cattle Roots are less
desirable for the feeding steer than
for the dairy COW. as they tend to form
more watery carcass. This is not
so detrimental to the dairy COW, as

sey and England attest.
Feeding Grain With Pasture.
Experiments ut the New York sta
tion show that the benefits of feeding
the grain We're not all realized the sea-
son i'm which it was fed, but that it
rendered the animals capable Of great
er production the following season. 1t
also shows that for each pound Of
grain fed an extra pound Of milk was
secured. Knowing the value Of each
we can easily compute whether the
feeding Of grain was or was not a
paying practice The experimenters
estimated that the feeding of grain
when pasture is good is neither pay
Ing nor losing Investment but that
1t would pay IL the pasture We're poor
Feeding the Calves.
Do not put the calves in pasture to
be tortured by flies and to suffer from
the hot sun. The proper place is a
roomy. airy box stall with the windows
slightly darkened during the heat Of
the day. Give fresh lot Of early cut
clover hay every day. and remove any
hat Is not eaten before more is put in.
When calves are kept in the stable,
they should be given now and then a

| Two or Three Meals For Cows.
During the past winter an experiment
was conducted in England to find out
whether 1t would be more profitable
to give three meals day instead Of
two, as had been the custom. A num-
Der OF COWS were given two meals q
day and another lot three meals. At
the close OF the experiment the follow
/ ing conclusion was drawn That there
is practically no difference in the
amount Of feed consumed or In the
amount of milk produced between two
o. three feeds a day. The former Is
u most profitable way, however, on
account Of involving less labor and

The Cows Best Weeks

There is Il great variation in the best
week of COWS lactation in different
COWS and in tie same COW. 1t has
records during the first ten weeks of
their lactation, and many cows make
their best record during the first month
after coming fresh. Most COWS give
their largest quantity of milk during
the third week ana make the larges,

week. Cows seem to reach their high
est butter production before they reach

this sum from the q 'fferent cities OF
