DIVIDEND PAYERS
 ARE IN DEMAND
All Local Stocks Are In Good Shape and Holding Well
 on Market.

The demand for copper stocks con unues good, especially in local stocks. The demand for dividend stocks is better now than it has been and this is certainly the opportune time to buy up this class of stocks as well as non-dividend payers. North Butte and Butte Coalition still hold the lead in coppers as well as Copper Range. Cal umet & Arizona continues to keep the public in an unsettled frame of mind If Calumet & Arizona pays but si.9U next dividend the stock is selling too high and am afraid that when it sells for ex-dividend considerably lower prices will be seen. The demand for Denn has been good as we'll as Sup erior & Pittsburg and Greene Cana nea. The latter holds well at S6.00. Superior & Pittsburg at the close showed a little weakness.
 National Mining and Exploration has been in good demand and the east was bidder and at the close was bidding 65 cents, an advance of 10 cents over that of yesterday.

RICH STRIKE IF EnIn nRE Us uULU UllL
 NEAR YUMA
Clara Gold & Copper Company
 Takes Considerable Amount of Rich Rock From Property
 To Los Angeles.

YEHA. Dec. e.--To the energy of some Los Angeles mining men is due several sacks q gold ore on ex1ibi- ton st the office of the Clara Gold ( Copper Mining Company in Los Angeles. The ore was taken from the mines in the northern part of Yuma County. and only the enthusl- asm of true miners would have cart cd the heavy ore the distance be- tween the mine and the railroad sta ton.
 The Clara mine. from which the ore was taken, is one of the richest that has been opened in Arizona in many years. and other discoveries near it proclaim the Santa Maria min ing district to be one of the richest in the country. Santa Maria seems to be a good luck name. having to it's credit the largest oil field, and now seemingly the prize gold mines.
 Assays of the ore by BaYerstock and Staples, and by Koenig, have ranged from S5S.S0 to over $500 per ton. 4 sample of carefully pickeo ore assayed s24,S4T a ton, the assay made by Koenig, and while it cannot be taken as a standard of the mine, it shows realistically what it can do.
 The Clara mine was located two and a half years ago by T. J. Carri gan and his son Thomas. Develop ment started six months later, ana aL the present time 2100 feet of devel- opment has been accomplished. The district is a new one, little develop ed, but showing promises of being a do=-Pa,I ssroissoor- If
 The outcroppings are in themselves a source oS treasure, surface ore talk en to Los Angeles being very rich. It was from the bottom of the Marga- ret shaft in the Clara mine that the ore was picked which figured so highly. A great amount of crosscut- ting and tunneling has failed to de termine the dimensions of the vein, wherever they have yet gone the lode has always tayed by them.
 A general term by which the coun- try is referred to Is the Bill Williams country. It is ninety miles from Rouse, at present the nearest railroad point, but upon the completion of the Arizona & California railroad, now partially completed, the companies working in the field from California headquarters will adopt Parker as their railroad headquarters.
 The Clara Gold Mine & Copper Mining Company has been in existence several years, its president, T. ]. Car Hgan, having located the mines for it when visiting other claims. These latter were temporarily abandoned up- sn the richer discovery at the Clara.
 George o. Rayder. general manager of the Blinn-Robinson Lumber Com pany, John Taylor, Harry Jackins, George s. Porter, Carroll J. and Hen " F.

ing is said to be identical with the Clara.
 The exhibit of the ore from this district, which is on exhibition at the office of the company, is easily the richest ore from one that has been seen in Los Angeles.

BuCKWHEAT,
A Good FilI-in Crop.

The late season has probably upset
the plans Of a good many of the farm
ers in more ways than one In many
instances the planting Of the crop has
been SO delayed that it is questionable
If returns will be secured to repay the
cost of seed and planting. In still
other instances, it may appear not
worth while to harvest the crop. Al
though such conditions as these are
not general, they will probably be met
with in most sections of the country
during this most unusual season.
The smaller farmers may be harder
hit" than the larger farmers, but In
some cases, where the larger farmers
money crop is the one effected, he will
also be a heavy loser. To the farmer
who cannot afford to lose a crop it has
been suggested that a way out Of the
difficulty may be found through the
| growth Of some quick growing crop.
Such a CROP is buckwheat.
Some farmers may be somewhat
prejudiced against the growing Of
buckwheat, but it is doubtful If there
is any real basis for such prejudice. 1t
Is true that buckwheat makes very
heavy demands on the soil, even
though it natures more quickly. A
good harvest of buckwheat can be Sc
cured from a sowing made as late as
June 18th in the Northern states and
July 18th in the middle Atlantic and
central Western states.
In order to make sure Of a crop 1t is
well to apply broadcast before SOW
ing five to six hundred pounds Of a
complete fertilizer. This fertilizer
should contain at least go Nitrogen,
SO Phosphoric Acid and go Potash,
as this will not only insure a good
crop, but will restore to the soil the
plant food which is removed SC vora-
ciously by this particular grain.
OF course, it should be remembered
that there is only a limited demand
for buckwheat, but It is not necessary
to dispose of ones crop in a local mar
ket. Some farmers are able to dis
pose Of buckwheat -four to good profit
locally, but there Is also a demand for
buckwheat cakes in larger cities even
where they do not have maple syrup"
1t is, therefore, quite probable that I'M
less a very large number of farmers
engage in the growing Of buckwheat,
1t will prove a valuable 'fllin' crop
in almost any season.
To those who are aesthetically in
clined there is no more beautiful
sight than a field Of growing buck
wheat in blossom; 1t gives to the late
summer landscape a charm that is
said to surpass eve the flax fields Of
the Emerald isle.
