JUST A FEW.

The lady who walks with kangaroo glide, The boy who struts round with his hat on one side, The man who wears clothes on bright summer day So loud you can hear them full block away, The dude who was raised as his man. mas own pet And fills his blank face with a cheap cigarette, The fellow who whistles tune on the train, Are some of the items that give me pain.

One Dollar Saved Represents Ten
 Dollars Earned.

The average man does not save to exceed ten per cent. of his earnings. He must spend nine dollars in living expenses for every dollar saved. That being the case he cannot be too careful about unnecessary expenses. Very often few cents properly in- vested. like buying seeds for his gar den, will save several dollars outlay later on. It is the same in buying Chamberlain's COlic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. It costs but few cents, and bottle of it in the house often saves a doctors bill of several dollars.

How the Keans Wonder Was Found.

The Keane Wonder was discovered in May, 1904, by Jack Keane and De- mingo Etcherren. These two men had made several trips across Death Valley into the Funeral Range look ing after small lead proposition and had done some development work on it.
 For several months they had mo- ticed a very large ledge of white quartz just across the canyon from where they were at work but thought nothing of it. They had with them a two-mule team and a saddle horse. Feed for their animals run short and Etcherren started into Ballarat with the mules and left the horse for Keane who was going to remain a few days longer. Before starting, Etcherren told Keane before he came in to go up and examine that large ledge of quartz. He did so. When he first reached the ledge he noticed where pieces of quartz had been days and didn't think much of it 
 part of the ledge and broke off a small piece of quartz and it showed free gold like pin heads. He then further examined the ledge and found it to be the same across it, ex- cepting the place where he saw pieces broken off. He took samples the entire width of this vein and then went to Ballarat. The assays averaged $56. A few days later Cap tain Delamar had bonded the prop erty for twelve months for Sl60, ,O00 with $10,O0O cash down. They began work on the property and found it to be great mine. In May of this year the S150,00O was paid over to Keane and Etcherren. Delamar inn mediately placed an order with the Union Iron Works of San Francisco for 120-ton stamp mill.
 This mine is only three miles from the old Chloride Cliff mine that was worked years ago.
 Another big discovery was made one mile from the Keane Wonder by J. Coty, M. Sullivan and J. R. Mo Cormack. The ledge crops out for 100 feet. It is 80 feet wide, 60 feet high and is estimated at 5000, ,OOO tons in sight. It is a high grade gold ore averaging $46. It is bonded for S17O,OOO
 These mines are up in the Funeral Range twelve miles from Death Val ley's edge.
 Fifteen miles south of these great mines is the Furnace Creek Ranch, owned by Borax King Smith of Dag gett. With the exception of the few Americans employed by this ranch, up to short time ago, white men were very seldom seen in this valley on account of the extreme heat. On July 4, 1904, the writer crossed Death Valley and by suffering num- erous hardships reached Furnace Creek Ranch, where the house was entirely shaded by large cottonwood and fig trees and a fine stream of mountain water running within ten feet of the hallway where the ther- mometer was hanging and it regis tered 13S degrees. A very delightful place for the prospector in winter, but in summer the Indians all move high up into the mountains.

Mining Investment Field.

All men cannot own mines from which gigantic fortunes are made, says the Salt Lake Mining Review, but almost any one can own stock in mining companies owning good pros pective value. We say "good pros pective value," because this is about the only kind of mining proposition that one can buy into these days, barring fakes and wildcat invest ments, as it is not common thing in this day and age to hear of the sale of treasury stock in a mining enter prise which is already productive and which is paying the owners big money.
 Therefore, if mining public de- sires an investment in mining securi- ties, the natural thing to do would be to purchase treasury stock in some company which has ground of undis- puted value and merit which it de- sires to equip and develop. If the company is composed of experienced, reputable men, and it's property is well located in a good district, the chances are that the purchaser of treasury stock will make thousands upon the investment where only hun dreds have been put in. Not every investor in mining securities meets with success, but we can point out a great many instances where the small investors in treasury stock have made their fortunes because of their good judgment in this respect.
 All of our great dividend-paying mines of today at one time were only good prospects. In many instances companies formed for their opera tion had difficulty in selling enough treasury stock to develop them to a point where they could be listed as producing mines. We have seen treasury stock sell at $1 which, few days later readily brought the owner BIO and S20 share. We have known treasury stock go begging at S5 a share, and we have known the same stock, five or six years later, as a ready seller at $1O0 a share; and, during four of these year, this stock paid $l a share a month in dividends.

In the Idaho courts the farmers lost in their fight to compel the mines of the Occur d Alene to stop deposit ing the tailings from the mills in the river. The judge held that the facts did not justify the complaint, and that the expert testimony to the presence of poisonous substances in the river was contradictory and in- sufficient.

Every report from Sonora is to the effect that activity in the mining i'm dustry is rapidly increasing. The gold and silver properties seems to be attracting the most attention at the present time, but the copper de posits will reach prominence in the rear future. Several properties are now being developed which promise to rival any of the copper camps now producing in that state.

The converting of sulphide copper iron ores into sulphates is not always an easy operation. It occurs by natural decomposition of the ores, and to some extent is accomplished by roasting, but it is an easy matter to carry the roasting too far. It must be done slowly, and is usually attempted only with those ores con- taining a large amount of iron sul- phide and a relatively small amount of copper sulphide. The roasting is usually done in heaps when portion of the copper in the ore becomes sulphate and portion is turned to oxide. If the roasting is preliminary to smelting there is little need of so much care, but if the process is pre- liminary to teaching the formation of large amounts of oxide, insoluble in water, should be guarded against.

Boston and Montana is easily the biggest paying mine, per share. in the world. During the fiscal year ended June l, 1905, it earned for it's stockholders $39 for every share of stock they held. Its net earnings for the year are reported at $6,855, ,620 While there are other mines that have yielded larger earning there is not one that can show a record of S39 per share. Boston & Montana's capital stock is only 150,OOO shares of the par value of $25 each, and it has paid back to it's stockholders some thing approaching forty-tive million dollars. That is what may be justly termed splendid. Anaconda is an- other great copper mine. It has re- turned to its stockholders over twen- ty-five million dollars in dividends, but the difference between it and Boston & Montana is we'll described in saying that while the latter gave it's stockholders $39 a share during its last fiscal year, Anaconda only gave its stockholders S1.88 per share. It should, however, be noted that Anaconda's capitalization is a very different thing to that of Boston & Montana; Anaconda has a capitaliza- tion of 1,2OO,OO shares, so it takes a big lot of money to ''go round."

The assessor of Graham county, who lives in the west end of the county, made good this year, for his end of the county, and cinched the copper companies. He more than doubled the assessment of the Ari- zona and the Detroit companies, and made a big raise on the Shannon company, the total raise of the three companies being S1,896, ,479.67. For years the people of the east end of the county have been supporting the office-holders and the school districts of the west end, and now the west enders, not satisfied with the neces- sities of life, are asking for luxuries. and are raising the assessments of the copper companies high enough so they may get what they want. Some years ago some of the residents of Clifton endeavored to. have the county divided, and a county seat made at Clifton, but their efforts were not approved by the copper companies. It is probable that these companies will now look at county division from a different standpoint, and will be glad to get away from the west end.-Liberal.

VALUE OF ONE ACRE.
Small Piece Of Ground Can Be Made
TO Yield Good Results.

II may be unusual to estimate the
amount of pork that can be produced
from an acre of certain crops, but the
problem has been solved in a very
interesting way. II is claimed that an
acre OF land in clover will produce
500 pounds of pork; peas, 375 pounds;
corn, $50 pounds; oats, 800 pounds;
barley, 420 pounds, and wheat, 225
pounds. The value OF each crop on
one acre when converted into pork is
as follows: Glover, 1872; oats. S22.4O;
peas, SIS; barley, $3.50; oats, 1890,
and wheat, So, estimating the pork at
four cents per pound. OF course some
thing depends on the prices ruling for
the crops. The amount of produce per
acre required to give the pork men
toned on an acre is 800 pounds Of
wheat, 1850 pounds of barley, 1920
pounds of oats, 2,240 pounds of corn,
1900 pounds of peas, and 1900
pounds of green clover.

First Use Of Heavy Ordnance.

The Turks were the first to employ
enormous ordnance In warfare. and
when Mohammed II. besieged Con
stantinople in 1853 he battered the
walls with huge stone shot, some Of
them weighing as much as 1900
bounds, A huge specimen OF this
ancient Turkish artillery Is to be seen
at the present time in ne Rotunda
museum at Woolwich, England. They
were extremely unwieldy weapons and
could only be fired ht the rate Of four
times a day. King Henry " Of Eng.
land, well understood the possible ad-
Vantages of the artillery, and there is
still extant an order of his to the clerk

place.
