Evils of Amateur Dieting.

Someone who has found facts on
which to base the opinion thinks that
the amateur dieting to which so many
are given just now is productive of far
more ills than 1t Dan cure. Dieting, no
doubt, nationally and with due regard
for the needs Of the body, does in most
cases improve the health. But for
Smith to change his diet according to
the formula Brown found beneficial.
without help or advice from a physi-
clan, is often a means of aggrayating
an already existing i'll or Of bringing
on fresh ones. One mans diet may
be another mans poison is as true a
word, perhaps, ~ has been spoken,
and accepting it as truth in this day
Of indiscriminate dieting may save
many q good man from going from
bad to worse in his attempts at self.

MINING IN
WYOMING
PRESENT STATUS OF INDUSTRY
AS OUTLINED BY STATE GE-
oLoGIST FOR REPORTER.
Dever Mining Journal Has Interesting
Article, Which is Herewith Repro
tation One of the H~indrances to
Mining Operations.

The following interesting article was
written by Hon. H. C. Beeler of Chey-
enne, state geologist for Wyoming, and
printed il. the Mining Reporter of Den
yer in its issue of the 18th:
BeeIer on Mining Development.
Many mine operators will say on
glancing at this heading that "Wyo
ming has no status in the mining
world-just a lot of h~igh-priced pros
pects,' and from their own little
standpoint, they are entirely right.
Progress has been slow, production
slower and encouragement for the
miner, zero for many years: the I'M
derlying real cause being no railroad
transportation nearer than a days
ride, which called for a long and ex-
pensive haul on ore and supplies
only possible with a high grade OF ore.
A Stockgrowins State.
Another potent reason has been that
Wyoming is essentially a stockgrow-
ing state. specially fitted for that pur-
pose by situation, average altitude OF
the state and great area of grass lands
or plains, which until recently 1t was
impossible to irrigate profitably. All OF
this naturally combined to make the
grasses on top of the ground more I'M
mediately valuable than whatever
might possibly be underneath, and SO,
small encouragement was given the
miner in those days. Just as ong as
this condition continued. the OUTSIDE
and mining world devoted its atten-
ton to other states where more noise
was being made about mineral mas
and mineral products (real n imagi-
nary) and Wyoming continued quietly
prosperous as to live stock and quietly
ignored as to its mineral possibilities.
New Mining Districts Opened.
When the open range became a thing
of the past and the natural limits oi
the live stock business of the state be-
came evident to the thinking man a'
the head of affairs, mining began to re-
ceiye more serious attention at nome
and abroad. with the result that new
districts were opened up, old ones re
~prospected and actual mining was pc
gun.
And about this time a number OF
citizens of other states, whose S
ness had been to interest people IL

sults) both to themselves n the IN
vesting public, began to make Wyo

mining was certainly heralded to the
uttermost parts of the earth.
Opening of Grand Encampment.
That portion of the state comprising
the southern halves of Albany and
Carbon counties, along the Colorado
Wyoming line, became particularly
famous as the Grand Encampment cop
per district and the usual fables were
told, the usual number of companies
organized on the usual extensive scale,
the usual amount of stock sold and, as
usual, the greater part of the money
vent to those who ere in a posntion
to get it and but little actual under,
ground development work was done to
show what was actually there.
The district received scant benefit
from this, and the real beneficiaries
promptly HE'D themselves away when
the demand for stocks slackened and
the real burden of the work was taken
up by those who followed or were al
ready in, and meant business.
The Real Status.
That is the real status of Wyoming
mining today. 1t is in the hands of
those who are engaged in actual min
ing work to develop what they con-
slider good business propositions and
lave no time to indulge in the tales
of former days.
The railroad situation is being
solved rapidly. For the central part
of the state, the camps of Copper noun
tain, the South Pass country and the
newly available Wind River and Owl
mountain territory, as yet unknown,
the new road from Casper to Lander
has cut off 100 miles of wagon haul,
and from present indications other
lines are to be built in hat locality
before long that will cut off another
slice and enable actual work to be
done at a commercial profit.
Two New Railroads.
In southern Wyoming the most i'm
portant events are the constructor of
the line from Walcott to Encampment
by the Penn-Wyoming Copper company
and the laying of steel on the Lar
amie-C Centennial grade, both of which
will cut off the wagon haul that has
for a stood in the way of he sue
cess of many a property in these dis
tricts.
The Encampment road makes the
operation of the Encampment smelter
possible at a profit, thus enabling
small operators to market their ores
and continue development, which Is
all the district needs.
Works Being Rebuilt.
The burning of the concentration
works of the Wyoming Copper
company at Encampment last March
was a hard blow for the district, as
it retarded development for a year
and put the copper production OF the
| camp down to its lowest point for
many wears, but the works are now be-
ing rebuilt on a larger better
| scale and the permanent growth of the
district will be benefited by what
| seemed to be a catastrophe.
So the story might be taken up In
various sections of the state and all
