THE BUSINESS 0UTLOOK--CONDI-
TON OF THE FARMERS.

dullness of business. The opin-
ion is that we are in the midst
of period of stagnation to
which business of every kind is
subject. One OF the causes as
signed is the fact that the farmers
are holding their cotton for a
higher price, which always has
a marked effect on business in
terests. Fort Mill Times.
The complaint referred to is
not confined to the merchants
of Fort Mill. Merchants gener-
ally throughout the country re-
port falling off in trade this
season. While it is no doubt
true that much cotton is being
held for better prices, that fact
alone by no means accounts for
the prevailing depression in busi-
ness. That condition las been
brought about by several causes.
In the first place, the cotton crop,
in this and neighboring states, is
undoubtedly short, and the far.
mers, realizing that fact, are
disposed to economize along all
lines this winter, buying only
what they actually need.
Moreover, the farmers have be-
gun to practice one of the funda
mental teachings of the Cotton
Association, and that is, ''to live
at home and board at the same
place." In other words, they
are raising and making at home
very many things which they
used to buy at the stores. They
are making their farms self-sus-
tanning. They are not only
raising plenty of "hog and homi-
n.y." but other things as we'll
that are essential to the comfort
and happiness and independence
OF farm life.
One reason why the streets
O. our towns have not been crowd
ed with farmers this season is
because they have been taking
advantage of the many weeks of
unusually favorable weather for
sowing small grain. IL Lancas
ter, for instance, it has been a
rare thing since the first of Sep
tember to see wagon going out
of town without one or more
sacks of oats in il. Since the
opening of the fall season over
twelve thousand bushels of seed
oats have been sold by five mer.
camille houses in Lancaster. That
number, of course, does not re-
present all the oats sold, for it
by no means includes the sales
of all the merchants of the town
only those that we have sue
ceeded in obtaining. Nor does it
represent the total number of
bushels planted. Many farmers
raised their own seed, while
many others purchased planting
seed in Monroe, Waxhaw and
other markets where they sold
cotton.
The business outlook is Ger.
tainly not as discouraging as it
may appear to be to the super.
fetal observer. While now and
then farmer may "fall behind"

rent accounts, as a general thing

MINING STOCK EXCHANGE.
Little Bell Has Been the Sensation of
Past Weeks Business.

More business was done on the local
mining exchange during the past week
than has been seen for a like period in
the last four or five years. In all 492, 7S3
s s5a res % OF stock, with selling value of
So zSS;Sf, changed hands As compared
with the corresponding week of last year,
the value of the weeks business was
over $4,000 greater Yesterday the mar
ket was rather dull and inclined to weak
ness; the record showing. the transfer of
z 100 shares of stock for $1S,S12
The sensation of the week was the phe-
nomenaI advance of Little Bell. Seven
days ago it was selling at $7.75. During
the week II sold up to $11-O5 1t has since
sagged little. and 1t was possible to get
it yesterday at 5000. BY well posted
brokers it is believed to be headed for a
much higher level Park City stocks
have all been in good favor and unusual

The company is capitalized at $500, 900,
its shares having d par value of 81

property consists of sixteen claims in
the Duck Creek mining district, about
fifteen miles northeast of Ely and near

new road from the Southern Pacific to
Ely. Max NJ. Johnson of this city
who secured the ground, is president
Of the company; D. 9. Mcdonald of
Ely is vice president and general man
a9er; c. Z. Street Of this city is secre-
tary and treasurer, the other directors
being Thomas w. Jones of Salt Lake

of the big copper camp of White Pine

portion of the regular pulp the assays
ran up to $54.S6 per ton. 1t was the
opinion of Assayer Hanauer that had
the rock been regularly sampled ii
would have shown a value of better
than $50 per ton. His chip sampling
of the four big slabs of the rock, it
will be remembered, gave an average
value for the four pieces of $41 per
ton.
Such values in 500-poUnd chunks of
ledge groupings ought to convince the
most skeptical that the new strikes in
the vicinity of Osceola are not only
genuine, but entirely out of the ordi-
nary. 1t is not necessary to dwell on
this feature of the business, because
a letter from camp yesterday, written
by r. A. Millick, who is in charge of
the properties from which the sam
pies came, says that people are pour

tons. He also reports a strike of two
feet of rich ore in the Grasshopper
property, near where the ore exhibited
here came from.

by Salt Lakers. The mines of the Ne

so prominently, are phenomenally rich
In a ledge which carries six feet OF $500
to $3.50 ore, there is from fifteen to
eighteen inches of rock which is worth
approximately $500 a ton, while sam
pies taken just before Mr. Dale left
camp went $3.50 in gold and silver.
Adjoining this property are the four
claims landed by Ben d. Luce for D.
H Peery and others and in which Mr.
Dale has been fortunate in securing
an interest. This ground is looked up
on as being just as valuable as the
Nevada Hills mines and developments
of the next few months or less is ex-
pecfed to prove it. While Mr.. Dale
did not say so, it is understood that a
cash offer of 900 for the group was
promptly turned down by the owners.

Mr.. Dale says, nine sets of leaserS are
at work and every one of them is ia

HOME FIRE OF UTAH
HAD NO COAST RISKS

Heber J. Grant & Co, general agents
of the Home Fire Insurance company
of Utah. have just issued a circular
letter to all agents of the company,
which will be of interest to the general
public i'm view of the fact that Home
Fire policies are so widely held by in
sllrers in Utah and Idaho The letter
states that the Home company never
wrote a dollar insurance in the state
of California, hence is unaffected by
the losses there. The risks of the
Home are widely scattered throughout
Idaho and Utah, and the company
therefore. stands no chance whatever
of such losses as others sustain who
write so heavily in a single district.
The two great companies with which
ance contracts are the Hartford of
Hartford, Conn, and the North British
& Mercantile Of London. England The
former has SIS, 1000, 900 fire assets, and
the latter $50, 100000 fire assets. The
San Francisco losses of both win be
promptly paid from the reserves, and
in the case of the North British < Mer-
camille the money will come from the
English department.
The last statement of the Home Fire
of Utah shows that its capital and sur
plus are invested in the best line of
Utah securities and real estate. The
figures are as follows
ASSETS.

Samples Displayed Here Stand Test
of General Sampling Well.

Owing to the fact that the local
samplers could not find time to prompt
~ sample the big chunks OF gold-bear-
ing quartz from the Black Horse dis
trict, near Osceola. and displayed on
Second South street for several days,
the owners turned the rock over to the
Holderman Filter Tank company and
had them crush il up as best they
could. The rock had first to be broken
up with hand hammer and then run
through hand grinders and the results
were not all that those interested
would have liked. 1t was demonstrated
that considerable gold was lost in the
canvas and the crevices of the floor,
though the sampling was done as
carefully as might be under the cir
cumstances.
The run made on the regular pulp
by NJ. s. Hanauer gave returns of
$3.50 in gold and 81 cents in silver per
ton, and when floor and canvas sweep
