for any purpose whatsoever or that
there has been any failure to report
sales OF the treasury stock. as charged
in the complaint of plaintiffs.
1t is further denied that the shares
of the company have ever commanded
10 cents in the market. or any other
sum, or that the company has received
only S7i2 cents from the proceeds of
sales made at r. cents. In fact, II is
alleged that the shares have never had
any market value, but have been sold
at private contracts. and that the COM
pany has received the full proceeds of
such sales OF theasury stock.

CURED in defending vexations litigation
brought by Ellen Carey, and was adj
vanced by persons interested in the
welfare OF the company when it could
not have borrowed from money-lerding
institutions on the security offered.
The bookkeeping system OF the COM
pany la defended at considerable length
In the answer. In this connection the
allegation that over $4,000 worth of
tssets Of the company has disappeared
Is denied, and tn. statement is
fully accounted for by anybody who
will examine thoroughly the books of
the company. and who comprehends
the system of bookkeeping. 1t Is al
legged that the examination of the
books by Frank Code, on behalf of
the plaintiffs. was s,rsory and not
complete, and that hi. report did not
truly represent the condition of the
company, and could MT, owing to the
nature of his examination.
1t Is denied that there was any fraud
In the purchase of the Fire King min
ing claim, and Is alleged that this pur-
chase was made from j. w. Smell, one
OF the defendants. 1t is admitted that,

shw that $4,000 was paid for this
claim, but Il was declared that the pur-
chase price was really 10000 shares of
stock in the company. and that this
fact is well known to all the plain
lifts.
The reasonableness of President Has
brouck's salary of 500 n month is de-
Tended and the fact pointed out
that Ellen Carey, one of the plaintiffs,
voted to fix IL at that sum. The answer
denies that either the company or its
directors are insolvent or that the di-
rectors are insolvent. or that the di-
rectors have any intention of either
destroying the DOCKS OF tnt company
or removing them from the jurisdiction
OF the court. as alleged in the COM
plalnt
In conclusion, defendants ask that
the application for receiver be de-
MED, and charge directly that tho
plaintiffs, particularly Ellen Carey,
have not brought the suit in good faith
but with the Interior purpose Of
hampering the company In its opera
lions In this connection II Is charged
that Ellen Carey brought a similar suit
against the company once becore with
the same purpose, and that when 1t
was forced TO trial she abandoned 1t.
The hearing on the application for
receiver has been set by Judge Morse
for next Friday.

Ioca,ed about IL miles northeast OF

rom the town Of Jack Rabbit. in the
JACK Rabbit mining district Lincoln
county. New Within radius OF two
ana one-half miles are the Bristol and
lda May properties, both OF which have
already opened UP large bodies OF rich
copper ore
The claims owned by the Seven
brothers company have been located
many times In the last quarter of a CEN
fury. but there was never any real de-
velopment work done on them until
tney We're located in 1905. and since then
the work has been merely surface
prospecting. AS result of this work,
however. ore has been extracted which
mas given the following results:
Assay by McRae of Phoebe, As per
cent copper; by officer of Salt Lake,
OF rs per cent copper; by Rippeto of
Salt Lake. IS per cent lead and 81
ounces in silver, and by officer of Salt
Lake, SO per cent lead and 81 ounces
silver The rock from which these as
says We're obtained came from different
Workings on the ground. and from a
nigh, precipitous mountain.
The company has q capitalization OF
oVU,V0o shares at par value OF 80 cents
ana Zuo0 shares OF this amount are
set aside as treasury stock TO be sold
for develping and patenting the ground.
IL Is the opinion of those who have
been on the ground. that by running a
tunnel at the base OF the mountain
from which the above assays were pro-
cured, the main body of ore can be
opened up at distance of 300 feet al
the outset. and in all probability much
sooner.
Within two miles OF the property
there Is a narrow gage road which
connects Jack Rabbit with the town of
Phoebe, and with the completion of the
Pioch-Caliente branch, the difficulties
In the matter of transportation win be
overcome.

DAT CROP POOR IN STATE.
Prof. r. A. Moore Reports on Condi
ditions Seen During a Trip.

Prof. r. A. Moore Reports on Condi-
ditions Seen During a Trip.
"The oat crop in Wisconsin is the
poorest in twenty-five years; the corn
crop is but ordinary and will probably
fall below last years yield; barley
grown from select seed is way above
the average and the beet sugar crop is
still developing rapidly"
This is the way Prof r. A. Moore,
head of the department of agronomy
sums up the crop outlook for the pres
ent year.
"The oat crop is very poor contin-
ued Prof. Moore "On the basis of
100 we haven't a 60 per cent crop this
year. The average is between twenty
two and twenty-three bushels to the
acre, as against thirty five last year.
This was due largely to the lateness
of the spring and the unusual amount
of wet weather.
"The corn crop is but ordinary and
I think with even the most suspicious
weather yet it will fall below last
years yield.
con the whole the corn crop of the
state has been gaining in averages in
in recent years. We are working
hard to get the farmers of the state
to use corn that is climatized to Wis
consin.
"The barley crop is good. The yield
of select barley will probably be above
the average About nine years ago we
asked the farmers of the state to sow
a certain kind of barley, as 1t was best
suited for Wisconsin. Good results
have been obtained and believe that
100000 bushels of this one kind has
been grown in Wisconsin alone this
year"

100000 FARMS
ARE GIVEN AWAY
UNCLE SAM HAS BEEN GENEROUS
WITH HOMESTEAD SET
TIERS.
PUBLIC DOMAIN IS BIGGER
LOUISIANA AND WYOMING HAVE
MORE FEDERAL LAND THAN
LAST YEAR.

Washington, Oct 5. = Uncle Sam
gave away in the neighborhoOd of $780,
900 farms to homestead settlers during
the last year, according to the report
of the commissioner of the general
land office. The acreage taken under
the homestead and other laws aggre-
gated 17,853,636. Divided into 100
acre tracts, this would make 1T 400
farms. Pvt in -r.,.l-y ct,~~; rs.
ste-&cls took less than 100 acres, so
the officials say that the total home
steads will run close to 100000.
Homestead settlement took place in
all the public land states, with the ex-
ception of Louisiana and Wyoming.
According to the figures, Louisiana
has 5,446 acres more public land now
than it had last year. The officials say
the only way to account for it is that
homesteaders have been relinquishing
claims in those states and taking them
elsewhere. Alaska reported no home
stealing at all.
The commissioner of the general
land office has issued a pamphlet
showing the unappropriated lands of
the United States on July / last. Ac-
cording to it Minnesota still has 2,154,-
255 acres of land subject to homestead
entry. North Dakota has 1899, 685
acres, South Dakota 7,830,765 acres
and Wisconsin has 1920.
