zation. this company has built an $685.
600 stamp mill and cyanide plant, it
is almost impossible to imagine the
enormous quantity Of gold that
must be taken from the ground to do
it. These are only few figures which
will give a slight idea of what mas
been done here and what will seem in
significant when compared to what
the output will be during the coming
year. I could probably go on indefi-
nitely, but owing to lack Of space
must leave some for future time AL
though the above mentioned mines are
wonderful, every mining man that
have talked to gives it as mis- opinion
that the greatest mine is yet to come.
Bullfrog Is Good.
"Goldfield is great, but the wonder
full camp of Bullfrog, although con-
siderably younger, bids fair to become
a close rival. This camp is SO young
that it's real value and Importance as
gold mining camp has not yet been
realized by the outside world. Recent
ly strikes in that district have been
SO frequent that today a strike will
hardly cause a stir that a year ago
would have almost set the people
crazy.
Chance for Poor Man.
This is not exclusively country
for the rich man as there are lots Of
good chances for any good hustling
person who is not afraid to work, in
case they have to, and in case they
don't have to, who will go out and
rustic up something that will bring
returns. I wish to say, however, that
1 never heard Of anyone finding ready
coined gold, nor have yet heard Of
anyone finding a gold watch with
Swiss or Elgin movements. The trou-
BILE with a country where such things
could be found would be that the peo-
pie would not be satisfied with finding
an ordinary watch. they would want an
eight-day watch, so that they would
not have to wind it but once a week.
Would also say further along this line
that gold does not grow on trees for
very obvious reasons. (There are no
trees.)
Since coming here I nave become as
ISOLATED with the G. ]. Johnson Brok-
erage company, of which G. S. Johnson,
a former resident of Walla Walla, and
we'll and favorably known there, is
1T" and through this connection
have become reasonably well ac-
quainted with the country and have
obtained information that is reliable
from men who know and not mere
heresay. I might say to Mr.. Jonn-
sons former numerous friends that he
has established a wonderfully large and
profitable business that extends all
over the western hemisphere, and to
almost all of the foreign countries.
Social Conditions.
1.-The social conditions are a great
deal better than l had expected, and
have certainly met some exceptionally
fine and intelligent people here from
all parts of the world. Although it
costs somewhat more to live here than
it does in most places, I was rather
agreeably surprised to find things a
great deal cheaper than 1 mad antici-
pated."

Tomato Blight.

Professor r. K. Beattle, of the
Washington state college at Pullman,
arrived last night at Charleston and
spent today with Rex Hunt, who was
sent here by the college to investigate
the tomato blight. A large number of
tracts were visited and the condition
of the plants noted. Professor Beetle
took photographs of a number of the
plants which ne expects will be of as
sistance in his experiment work and
also prove of value for reference pur-
poses. The professor stated that at
least tw0-thirds Of the blight occur
red before the recent hot spell and
that the warm weather seemed to nave
little effect upon the plants. The pro-
fessor also stated that it was too
early to draw conclusions as to the
probable cause of the blight, as the
data secured by himself and Mr.. Hunt
was as yet incomplete; that it would
be impossible to suggest remedy un-
til this had been done and the proper
consideration given to the data secured
by himself and Mr.. Hunt. Mr.. Beat
tie expects to return in a short time
to renew mis- observations.-Lew

FORMER WALLA WALLAN GIVES
OBSERVATIONS OF THE GOLD
FIELD DISTRICT,
Concerning the Mines Recently
Discovered in Nevada.

Under the date of July 26, Fred G.
Cox, at one time an employee of the
Dean Mclean Abstract company
writes an interesting letter from Gold
field, New, where he went several
months ago to take up his perma-
nent residence. Mr.. Cox says:
Thinking that possibly some of
your readers and some of my friends
might care to know something of
this, the most wonderful mining
camp the world has ever known, I
will endeavor to give them some
facts as have found them since COM
ing here When I say this is the
most wonderful mining camp the
world has ever known, am not giving
you my personal opinion, but am CIV
ing you the opinion Of mining men
and of old prospectors. who have
been in almost every gold mining dis
trict that has ever be- opened up.
Goldf1eid is. and is go.nG to be. the
central and supply point for a great
many minor camps situated here in the
southern part Of the wonderfully ricn
state Of Nevada. Among these less
important camps might mention Ida
and the Grape Vine districts, the lat
ter of which is just a new discovery,
being only few months old, but bear
ing all of the earmarks of becoming
one of the most important gold min
ing districts in the country. It is
situated between Goldfeld and Bull
frog, some little distance off the main
travelled road. Although, as l said be-
fore, this district is just a new dis
been made there. l now have in mind
one old prospector, an acquaintance of
mine, who brought to Goldfield a piece
of rock taken from almost the very
surface of the ground that gave the
wonderfully nigh assay Of $5,264.S9.
This may seem too good to be true,
but, nevertheless, it is so. This dis
trict is being rapidly developed and
will be more and more vigorously pros
pected and developed as soon as it be-
comes generally known. Every mining
man who has ever visited the dis
trict says that there will undoubtedly
be some good producing mines opened
up there in the near future.
Ida is an old silver mining camp,
but since the discovery Of gold in this
country some exceptionally fine gold
mine prospects have been discovered
there and are being vigorously de-
veloped, some that give promise of be-
coming wonderful producers Of the yell
low metal.
There are many other young and
smaller camps, but could not go into
detail about them in sucn a limited
