lead. Since he began operations, Mr..
Gates has incorporated his claims as
the Buckskin Gold Nugget Mining COM
pany. He has mapped out a more ex-
tensive campaign of development than
he first intended, and will sell some
stock to carry out his plans. This is
somewhat of an unusual plan of pro-
cedure. Usually a man gets bunch of
claims and begins selling stock before
he puts up a cent of money himself or
does more than the assessment work.
Not so with Gates. He bought his
ground, bought his machinery and paid
for all out of his own pocket before he
offered a share of stock. A little more
of this kind of operation would help

located along the ledge. He has had
assays as high as $3.50. while the aver
age is about $12.

The Goldfield Red Hills Mining and

the prospects of uncovering good

a blower is now being installed to rem

better for stars are now going begging
for 1925, aud it is feared if the present
uncertainty continues that the price NAV
go down still lower.
The new shingle rates become effec-

turers will then face a delnoralized con.
