MINING NOTES.

The mineral exhibit at the fair is
the best ever shown in Spokane, &C
cording to the leading mining men OF
the country.
The Copper Queen Mining company
has begun development work upon the
Copper Queen, a copper property of
merit situated adjoining the widely
known Reindeer, near Mullan, Idaho.
Bunkhouses and a boarding house will
be built Immediately and tunnel driv-
en- as rapidly as possible to cut the
vein.
An unconfirmed report is current at
Wallace, Idaho, to the effect that the
Federal company is negotiating for
the purchase of the control of the
Reindeer copper property, short dis
lance from Mullan.
Shipments for last week from Ross
land, B. c., were smaller than usual,
owing to the derailment of an ore train
On the Columbia & Western between
Rossland and Trail. Total for the
week, 1870 tons, and for the year, 1884,
933 tons.
Within few days the smelter about
completed by the Amador Mining COM
pany in Montana will be blown in and
commence the treatment of the great
quantity of ore the company has on its
lump and in it's bins. The smelter will
be under the superintendency of Mr..
White of Butte and will have capa-
city Of Is tons day. If it proves a
success it will be enlarged later on.
From Wallace, Idaho, comes the re-
port of a strike at the California.
which is owned by a Pittsburg COM
pany, owners of the Black Cloud and
adjoining that property. The strike
was made in the lower tunnel, where
one foot of galena has been encoun-
tered. The report was brought here
~ a California miner today, confirm
ing street rumors.
Word reached Grand Forks of an
immensely rich strike of cobalt which
was made recently near West Bridge
On the west fork of Kettle river. This
strike is of gigantic proportions and
has created great excitement in the
camps. 1t bids fair to rival the cobalt
camp in New Ontario. Prospectors
from all over the country are flocking
into the camp and stalking all the va
cant ground for miles around.
There is reason to believe that the
Furnace Creek Copper company, of
which Patrick Clark of Spokane is
chief owner and directing spirit, will
soon be merged into much greater
company, the guiding spirits in which
will be Charles M. Schwab, the former
steel magnate, and John w. Gates, the
we'll known New York millionaire.

The art of irrigation is, no doubt, a
source of grave speculation to the un-
initiated; how thousands Of acres Of
growing crops can be successfully wa
tered by artificial means must puzzle
q good deal those whose experiments
in similar direction do not reach be-
yond the watering Of ported house
plants, bed Of flowers in a garden
from a watering pot, or the irrigation
Of front yard by means Of a lawn
sprinkler. There are 100000 acres Of
land in Colorado susceptible of cultiva-
ton. Forty per cent of this area is now
under actual cultivation. To cover this
Immense area with water from the ir-
rigadng bitches two or three times over
during a single season is something
Of task. Colorado land, to be we'll

In most cases the land and water

the West water is rented to the land
owner, but the instances Of this sort
are so few that it is hardly worth
while to refer to them. Upon the pur-
chase of a right the purchaser usually
becomes an owner in the canal. A
contract usually provides that certain
amount should be charged each water
right owner in proportion to the water
he buys, for the maintenance of the
property and the canal company guar
antees that this assessment will not
be over certain amount during its
management. This charge for MAIN
