While cinging for life to a manza-
nita bush on the verge of 5OO-foot
kicking desperately for hold in the
crumbling rock, Daniel i. Gump dis
covered ledge of copper ore which ex-
perts pronounce a bonanza. Gump,
who lives in Lordsburg, had conducted
"A hunting party to Browns flats, in the
mountains, twenty miles north of here.
Alone he essayed a short cut on the
return trip to show his companions it
could be done. Instead of emerging
on the trail and meeting the party
where he had expected, Gump suddenly
found himself on a perilously steep
mountainside. A bowlder turned under
him and he slid and rolled down thirty
yards. He was within an inch of
death. His shouts attracted the other
hunters after long time, and it took
them nearly day to rescue him from
the fearful dilemma. When finally
taken down with ropes. Gump had
samples OF ore which local assayers
find runs $50 per ton copper, $40 gold

From the Kingman Miner the fol-
lowing information regarding the
people is taken
An agreement for the sale of the
Dempsy O'Dea mines was entered into
between the owners and John Brock
man of Los Angeles few days ago
and Mr.. Brockman has gone to Los
Angeles to purchase a large holster for
installation on the property. The price
named in the instrument is said to be
S250000, with payments covering two
years of time. A shaft 500 feet in
depth is to be sunk as fast as men
can do the work and levels are to be
run at certain specific distances. The
mine is to be thoroughly exploited by
the purchasing party. Messrs. Dempsy
and O'Dea came to Kingman Tuesday
last to complete details of the sale.
The mines, known as the Pilgrim
group, are situated about nine miles
west of Chloride, in the Blue Ridge
mountains. They were discovered by
William ODea several years ago, but
were not located until two years ago.
Since that time the owners have done
an immense amount of work on them
and opened up great ore bodies. The
ore in the deepest shaft is said to ave-
rage S22 across an eight-foot vein.
Nowhere on the veins can a person go
and fail to get values in. gold The
mines are easy of access and water in
or two of the property.
]. w. Gerritt has a group of mines
near the Pilgrim and this group is UNI
der bond to Mr.. Brockman.
The opening up of this great group
of mines by such a well-known mining
operator as Mr.. Brockman means big
things for Mojave county.
1t is reported on good authority that
Sam Butler and e. S. Osborne have
sold their big group of gold and copper
mines on Bill William fork to a COM
pany for cash consideration of $780,
900. The purchasers have been on
the ground for weeks and after making
a thorough examination made the offer
to the owners, which was accepted.
The mines are said to be wonderful
veins of ore, upon which a large
amount of work has been done. The
ores are rich in gold and copper, but
the inaceessiblity of their location has
in a marked degree retarded their de.
velopment. With railroad building
to within few miles of the mines
and a rich corporation back of them,
we may look forward to the opening
UP of the richest regions in the terri
tory.
A force of men is at work on the
Vivian mine, owned by Judge Ross of
Los Angeles and Thomas Ewing. The
mine has been under systematic de-
velopment the past two years and
large reserves of ore are blocked out.
Theodore p. Lamb, representing Los
Angeles people, is preparing to develop
the New Jersey mine, near Chloride.
Supplies for the property are on the
ground and work will be carried on
quite extensively.
John +. Withers departed to Los An
geles last Wednesday evening and will
be gone about a month. He has not
been in good health for some time past
and believes a little relaxation will do
him good.
Big ore has been found i'm the drift
on the st. Louis mine, at a point
where the mine was never before
opened. The drift will be driven in on

Heavy and Light Weight Seeds.

neaVy anu ll9 nj "SI9nI See0S. -
At the Minnesota Experiment Sta
ton analyses were made of heavy and
light weight seeds of barley, oats and
wheat. The heavy weight seeds we're
solid and well filled. The light weight
seeds were imperfectly filed. It was
found in the light weight seeds that
the proportion of nitrogen, phosphor-
us and potassium was greater than
In the heavy weight seeds. In the
heavy weight seeds, the amount OF
starch was so great that the proper"
ton OF the other elements was small.
II was, however, learned that the az
sresate amount of nitrogen, pnos-
phorus and potassium was greater IN
the heavy weight seeds. The mere
tact of the percentage of the three
elements being greater in the low
weight seeds counts for nothing when
the product of an acre is considered;
that is, from the producers stand
point, because an acre would produce
more nitrogen in the heavy weight
seeds than in the light weight seeds.
But from the feeders standpoint, it
is different. 1t may be that the light
weight seeds on the basis of a hun
dred pounds for the food of any live
stock, including poultry, would be
greater than with the plump seed. 1t
| would appear to be to the advantage
to the man in buying seed for feeding
| to select the low weight seed, while
it would be for the interest of the
man raising the seed to produce the
plump seed, as he would thus sell of
from his farm a great deal of starch
which is product of the atmosphere
In selling the low weight seeds, he
would be disposing of nitrogen, phos'
phorus and potassium at very low
| prices, possibly below their value as
! fertilizer.

Water and Orchards.

For long time it has been
a mystery why certain varieties
Of apples would do we'll in New
York, New England, and even
colder places. and yet would freeze
to death on the soil of Illinois and
Iowa, where the temperature is higher
during the winter than in the eastern
states. Within few years the opinion
has gained ground that the water SUD
ply in the soil plays an important part
in the ''wintering" of the tree. When
so-called tender fruits have been
killed out in Illinois and neighboring 9
states, here and there near bodies OF
water the trees have safely passed
the winter. The natural inference
seems to be that it was cold combined
with dryness that resulted in the loss
of the trees

PAT SAVED THE PENNIES.
Mailed the Letters When No One Was

Mailed the Letters When No One Was
Looking.
There is a good story told of old
Patrick Green, who has worked at
the Bush stores in Brooklyn for years.
Green's inability to keep up-tO-date is
nothing against him. He is watch
man and not a poet. So when Fore
man Reilly last week gave Green four
pennies and two letters and told the
old man to buy two stamps and paste
one on each letter, he knew that
Green had to have explicit orders, and
would follow them explicitly. He also
admonished the old man to be careful
about putting the two letters in the
box at the corner after the stamps
had been affixed. Green came back in
about ten minutes, his face aglow. He
placed the four pennies in Reilly's
hand and exclaimed:
There wusn't no one 1ookin'. Faith
an Oi wuz moighty sure of it, too, and
SO just put them in the box an took
it on run as fast as me ould legs
would carry me!"-New York Globe.

Alfalfa in Indiana,

Indiana, as well as neighboring
states, is interested in the growing OF
alfalfa Experiments in all parts of
the state where it is grown have
shown all kinds of results. In some
places the returns have been good,
and in others not enough alfalfa has
been obtained to pay the cost Of the
seed. 1t is well that Professor Fish.
er has undertaken to find out the
requisites for obtaining good stand
Of alfalfa in Indiana. He has tried the
growing of this plant under a variety
of conditions and a variety of treat
ments. He comes to the conclusion
that any Indiana soil tlat will grow
corn will also grow alfalfa, but that
open soils are most to be preferred.
He finds inoculation of the soil to be
generally desirable, and in some cases
it is absolutely necessary to secure a
stand. In corresponding with large
number Of farmers, he found the
causes of failure were various. One
Of these causes was poor drainage;
another was pasturing the alfalfa
while it was young, the stock eat
ing it down to the ground. In some
places weeds grew up and took posses
sion of the field before the alfalfa
could get start. In some cases, in
oculation was not practiced where it
should have been, and no crop result
ed. The causes that have led to fail
ure in Indiana are the same causes
that result in failure in other parts of
the humid west

Heading Of Shade Trees,

How shade tree should be headed
will depend on it's location. If it is on
the edge of the lawn out of the way of
passing teams and people, it may be
headed low. Some of the most beau
tiful trees on the edges of lawns are
those that have their limbs almost on
the ground, but in other situations it
is better to head trees high, both that
they may have more beauty and that
the lawn under them may be pre-
served. The head Of the tree should
in nearly all cases be kept thinned out
sufficiently to permit the passage of
rays of light; otherwise many of the
inside limbs will die. A mistake in
this matter has often resulted in trees
or parts of trees being killed

Advantages Of Good Culture,

Reports from the Ontario Expert
ment Station give a. report of the an
nual yields of different crops in On
tario for the past twenty-three years.
Some of the yields per acre are as
follows: Barley, 1901 pounds; win
ter wheat, 1918 pounds; oats, 1917
pounds; peas, Ito pounds: beans,
1926 pounds; spring wheat, 942
pounds; buckwheat, 936 pounds; rye,
913 pounds. These same crops, ex-
cept beans, show an average consider
ably higher for the years 1902, 1903
and 1904 than for the % years. Dur
ing the last three years also these
have been tried in cooperative expert
ments, many hundreds of farmers CO.
operating in growing certain crops
under the direction of the experiment
station. The average yields on these
farms have been much larger than on
the average farms Of the province.
The reason is easy to understand.
These men are in touch with the ex-
pertinent station work, many of them
having been students themselves at
the agricultural college or having had
sons there who brought back to the
farm the information gained. The fact
that the farms of these men have pro-
duced larger crops shows that success
in farming is the result of intelligence
and information. When knowledge is
generally disseminated among the
farmers, the whole average yield will
be brought up to the point now made
by the best farms.
