Geo. Ward of King City, Mo-, who
is operating on the Mission land,
has about $500 tons of crush ore on
the dump at the present time. He
was here the other day looking af-
ter his property. While here he said
that he is going to build sutton
mill this spring.
The NJ. X. & T., is running steadi-
~ and making lots of ore, the out.
put being from eight to ten tons OF
clean ore per shift. The new mill is
doing fine work, we understa nd, and
the results from the ground are
very satisfactory. The dirt is not of
a chatty nature, but is very easy to
clean.
The 3F mine is producing lot of
mighty rich dirt these days. The
ground is in good shape for heavy
production, and the output from
the mill is showing well.
The Old Abe is making lots of
high grade jack these days, the out
put from the mill being from seven
to eight tons per shift. The dirt in
this mine is getting richer and
richer as the drifting progresses.
Recently a drill hole was put down
on the north part OF the Old Abe
forty, not very far from the south
line of the 81 lease, and In that hole
was found the identical run Of rich
dirt which is being worked at great
profit by the 81 people. This is a
big thing for the Old Abe owners.
as this now prospects the whole of
their lease, other drill holes on
other parts of the ground proving
that the ore is uniform all over the

being erected and the properties are
being developed"
The output ofthe Baxter camp for
1908 was $l37 $50, aud with the in
creased development it will easily
exceed half a million this year.
Last week only five camps pro-
duced more ore than the Baxter
camp. They were Joplin, Webb
City, Duenweg, Aurora, Galena. The
cam Pc which produced less ore are
Prosperity, Oronogo, Sturgeon
Neck City, Zincite, CRANKY, Sher.
wood, Badger, Cave Springs, Car.
thage, Beef Branch, Stott City.
Merritt & Co., who are operating
on the Whitebird land, are into their
ore body. They have been bothered
considerably with water, but the
pumps have at last gotten il under
control, aud they are making good
Roadway. They have struck the ore
at depth of 100 feet, and according
to the drill record will have 80 feet
of il. The ore so far ie of free ma
ture, and very rich. Mr.. Merritt, who
has charge of the property, saws il
is not going TO be necessary to build
a mill on the property, as he conf
IDENTIFY believes il can be profitably
handled with jigs.
The Independence Mining Com
pany, which is operating on the east
forty of the Norton & Haskell land,
has a shaft down 95 feet. They have
q feet farther TO sink before they
get into the ore. But according to
the drilling record they will have a
mighty big thing when they get i'm
TO the ore. The record showed IA
feet of almost solid ore, the drillers
washing out so pounds of clean ore
from the .drillings. They have had
very hard sinking, but are persist
ent.
s. L. Gross. who is sinking on the
Norton q Haskell land. just south
west of the Independence, is taking
out very good stuff at the IS foot
level The shaft is IS feet deep. and
is being sunk deeper, but Il has
been in pay dirt ever since the 80
foot level wac reached.

PREPARING 10 SHIP FRUIT.

THE railroad company in expectation OF the
large yield Of fruit on the peninsula this
year, and through Special Agent Mills they make
their own careful estimate, is getting a thousand
or so cars in readiness to handle fruit. The crop
is so uncertain that the company is excused for
putting of preparations until the last moment
They might 60 to great deal of expense when,
suddenly, a storm or frost or something else
would practically destroy the fruit and the pre-
parations would go for naught A big peach crop
means great thing for the Delaware Railroad
Company. 1t collects its regular and stipulated
tolls, does as it plcases about marketing the
fruit and is sure of its profits. 1t is TO be hoped
tiat the service this year will be good, although
there is a suspicion that those controlling the
refrigerator cars will try to wiring much pos
sbe from the shippers They always do. But
we imagine the railroad company will try to give
good service In the past the shippers Of peaches
have lost thousands of dollars through the in
efficiency of transportation facilities The fact
that at some points the growers can use boats
helped the situation great deal. But the railroad
company must be on its goodbehaviorthis season,
as tile watchful eye Of Hon. John p. Holland will
be upon it and he is sure to be on the lookout
for extortons The campaign is approaching and
Mr.. Holland wants ammunition. 1t would be a
good thing If Mr.. Holland could interest his fe-
low Democrats who are leaders in political cirs
cles, in his movement to obtain justice from the

.INOCULATION
KILLS DISEASE
Anthrax Successfully Treated
By DR.. J. R. KuhnS and
is Disappearing

Anthrax, the most fatal Of all farm
diseases among the lower animals,
broke out in the fine heards OF John
w. Fennimore. Of Leipsic and the best
veterinarians, the State Board Of Agri-
culture, Secretary Wesley Webb Of the
State Grange. the Delaware College
meteorological laboratory and DR.. ]. r.
Kuhns, the Dover specialist, were CALI
ed in.
Two fine mules fell over and died,
but by the time the analysis came back
from the Delaware College laboratory,
pronouncing thedisease positively an
thrax. DR.. Kuhns had succeeded in in
oculating the whole herd with virus
and cremating the dead animals.
The cremation has been found to be
necessary in all cases as the disease is
so contagious (even communicating it.
self to man and birds) that even Ions
after a body is buried, rats and dogs
may dig up a bone and start the spread
Of the deadly malady all over again.
The inoculation by the latest modern
methods is said to be a positive stamp
ing out of the disease, where the cre-
nation is promptly resorted to.
