Active work has commenced on
the Carrow diggings.
The Enterprise has paid for labor
alone 800, 900 since the mine started
operation.
An official run was made on the
rooster at the Trego mine, Monday,
which was highly satisfactory in
every way.
Ore that will mill Is per cent is
considered a very Itch proposition.
The mines in this region have no
trouble in reaching that percentage.
Work on the new mill at the
Wicklow mine is progressing rapid

of the best mining plants in the
district. t II

TO MAKE. ROADS.
sIngeriOrs Continuance for the Build
Y ing OF Good Roads.

h Considerable is being said IN our
exchanges about the split-log drag
for road work.
Thus implement consists merely of
a split log or square sharp edged
timber drawn by horses attached to
Fit at the proper point to give it a
slant Of about forty-fve degrees in
the direction the loose earth is to be
| forced. a4
| The driver stands upon this drag
and drives down one side of the
road and back on the other after a
rain and the drag fills all depres-
sions, presses the loose earth down
hard and smoothes and pushes all
surplus earth into the center Of the
road.
/ This can also be done by the mod
ern road grader, though this ma
chine doc; not press the road bed
down so we'll as the log, and the
cheapness of the latter enables each
farmer to own one and go over the
road between his home and the
ne-.J neighbor on the way to town,
after each storm.
1t has been found that this way of
keeping roads in repair is much
better than narrowing them down.
This Implement is most simple of
construction and can be manu-
featured as follows: Take the two
halves of split log nine feet long,
ten to twelve inches thich, set OF
edye thirty inches apart, both fat
sides to the front, strong oak cross
bars holding them in position;
chains or strong wire aJlached to
the front slab at the ends to attach
the whipple trees to. Stand on a
plank attached to the center of the
first slab. By shifting the position
of the driver and the point of hitch
the necessary changes of slant in
the machine for different kinds of
work can be made. If working a
clay or gumbo road put iron, old
wagon tire or something of the sort
on lower edge of drag at end of six
months, for softer soil at the end of
twelve months. .~,, ;.

AMONG The LEAD and ZINC MINES,

the Missouri district that zinc will
reach the $55 per ton mark before
the end Of September.
The highest price reported paid
for zinc in the Joplin dist riot was
.$52 per ton, an advance Of 81 per
ton over the price paid last week.
The assay basis proper was $47 to
$40 per ton of 60 per cent zinc, but
a number of bins of ore were pur-
chased on fat bids that equaled a
basis Of $50 per ton of so per cent
zinc. The average increase in prices
for the week fell a little short Of ST.
per ton, though some bins received
q greater advance. Lead continues
firm and in excellent demand at
$63 per ton, with a few fancy grades
selling at $3.50. n ~
The Consolidated company is
opening an incline shaft about 120
feet west Of mlne No. 2, dipping
into the hill on the west at an
an angle Of about 20 degrees. A
trestle, will connect the mouth of
this shaft with the feeder plat
form at the mill. A car will be
run by cable on this incline, right
from the ore-bed to the platform
above the crusher where by an ar
rangement OF the track it will
dump its load and its own weight
will carry it back to the ore again,
This will make a great, saving Of
expense for tie company. Nearly
ell the best mines are now, making
use Of this device for supplying ore
to their mills.
Word has been received by the
officials of the Sunset Mining Co.,,
that the machinery recently pur-
chased, has been shipped. The
boiler company will have men on
the ground at once to put in the
foundation for the boiler. The ar
drills should be ia operation with
in ten days. MI. Temby and help
Iers are working twelve hours per
day, to, push the sinking SO that it
will be finished when the drilling
outfit is installed.

/, A teacher in a Boston public
school was seeking to give her boys
a definite idea of what volcano is.
She drew a picture of one on the
blackboard. Taking some red chalk
she drew fiery flames pouring from
the summit of the volcano, and
when the drawing was done she
turned to the class before hor and
said: ''Can any of you tell me what
that looks like?" One boy Immediate
ly held up his hand, and the teacher
said; "Well. Joey, you may tell
us" 1t looks like hell, ma'am," re-
piled Joey, with startling prompt
ness.
She was bright girl and they

DUTY ON ZINC ORE.
A Hearing Given by Secretary Shaw
to Miners and Importers.

Washington, Sept. 21.-A hear
ing was given by Secretary Shaw
today on the customs question of
zinc ores in general and also zinc
ore containing percentage of lead.
The tariff law provides that miner
ais, crude or not advanced in value,
not specially provided, shall be ad-
mitted free of duty. 1t also provides
that metallic mineral substances
in a crude state shall pay duty of
20 per cent The dispute is as to the
class in which zinc ore belongs.
The zinc miners of the middle
west argued in favor of duty on
zinc ore. This was opposed by the
New Jersey Zinc company, and the
Western Spelter company. At the
conclusion of the hearing it was
decided to submit the legal ques-
tons to the attorney general for an
opinion. Pending his decision, the
department. will continue the pre-
sent practice of assessing duty on
all lead contained in lead bearing
zinc ore.
In an interview with Mr.. R.
Meyer, Dr., of the Union State
Bank of Lancaster, he said: 1.-THE
subject Of duty on zinc ore on a
30 per cent ad valorem basis as
argued before Secretary of the
Treasury Shaw by the four rep
reSentatives Of the Missouri Kan
sas Zinc Miners Association and
their attorney, is a matter of vast
Importance to the producers of this
district. More especially. is this
true ii view of the part that the
New Jersey Zinc Company and the
Western Spelter Company appeared
as the contending factors for the
converting companies.
, | The importation Of zinc ore into
America began last February on "a
large scale when the Canadian
Pacific Railway. reduced their form
er tariff Of $1,000 per ton to $1,000
per ton from Canadian Points to
Kansas. By. July l, 1905 the i'm
portation of ores from Canadian
and Mexican mines to the Kansas
smelters had assumed such volume
that the Missouri Kansas Zinc
Miners Association raised fund of
$40, ZOO, appointed committee,
engaged counsel, and will prosecute
through the courts in the advent of
an adverse decision by the treasury
department their contention that
the full 20 per cent ad valorem duty
should be applied to all zinc ore
imported into America.
Every producer in the South
western Wisconsin, Northwestern
and Southeastern Illinois and Ken
lucky districts should make joint
effort at once to protect their in
terests through the Congress-"
Mr.. Meyer is we'll posted man

district, and is a prominent mem
Der and one of the directors Of the

sheraton by all mining men in this
