LUDWIG SALE LOOKS
like A SURE GO
Report of Sale of Such Importance Brings Many Prominent
Mining Men Into the Great Yerington District

The sale of the famous Ludwig mine
is to all appearances an assured fact
The reports of the several experts, who,
during the past weeks, have examined
the mine, are said to confirm, in the
main points, Max Jnnghandel's report,
on the strength of which the property
has been bonded. There may be an
honest difference of opinion in regard to
its prospective reserves. Nobody can
look into the ground deeper than the
lowest working and there are hot-headed
and cold-footed guessers. To all expe-
rience which some men can only ac-
quire in the School of Hard Knocks it
pays better in Bountiful Nevada to be an
optimist
No difference of opinion seems to pre-
vail that the price of 81 ,O00, 900 is amply
represented in the exposed ore bodies of
the Ludwig, and that these bodies con-
tain the richest and most beautiful cop
per ores ever found in any copper mine
in the world. If the old experience,
the better a copper mine at surface the
better at depth" can be relied upon,
the prediction of Max Junghandel that
the prospective reserves of the Ludwig
will far surpass its visible ones, seems to
be we'll founded. Geological formation
and mineralogical indication tend to
demonstrate that the Yerington deposit
is of deep-seated origin. The great
fortunes will not be made here in dig

The AZ feet of ore now crossed is equal
to 100-foot body in the Butte mines, as
the grade is nearly three times as high.
Superintendent Logan has gang of
80 or 40 Indians at work grading new
wagon road to the camp, and it will be
completed in about week. This road
will bring the mine within four miles of
Yerington and give nice easy grade.
The company has lumber on the way
for the erection of boarding house, bunk
houses, blacksmith shop, offices, stables,
storerooms, ETC.; in fact camp that
will accommodate 100 men or more.
There are 16 men at work at the present
time and there will be many more soon.

COMPANY IS A WINNER
Aggressive Development Work Shows Up Wonderful Val

Development work is being pushed
for all it is worth on the Mason Valley
Copper Company's ground, the Spragg
mine, these days, and the showing is
something wonderful The long lower
tunnel, which taps the ore body at a
depth of about 800 feet from the apex,
has cut through over so feet of high
grade sulphide ore-42 feet of which will
run on an average better than 7 per
cent in the red metal. The face of the
tunnel is still in ore, but it is of some
what lower grade an average of about 8
per cent The fomation is lime-granite
and from indications on the surface the
largest and best bedies of ore have not
yet been encountered The side drift
being run ON the contact has been ad-
vanced to the $50 point and here an
other drift has been started. This cross
cut has only been run about 10 feet from

ging at the surface, but in the working
at depth. The Yerington district will be
good for several generations, and so will
be the Ludwig as one of the most valu-
able parts thereof.
The change in its ownership will no
doubt prove great boon to Yerington.
The very fact that such good figure
could have been commanded for a prop
erty of comparatively small acreage will
unquestionably rebound to the credit of
the whole district and will reflect upon
the value of all its properties, developed
and undeveloped. The new owners,
whoever they may be, in order to make
good on the purchase price, must neces-
sarily spend large sums on new me-
chanical and metallurgical equipment
and increase the working force. 1t is a
wellknown fact that the Ludwig during
the past year, in spite of great draw
backs, has produced and shipped more
than $500, 600 worth of ore. All those
familiar with the mine agree that with
proper improvements this output can be
easily trebled.
The Ludwig deal has already acted as a
stimulant to the Yerington district and
has spread more than anything else its
well sustained fame as rich depository
of the red metal. Hundreds of mining
men from all parts of the country have
visited it during the past weeks and
have satisfied themselves in regard to its
great future.

Many a dairy COW is pronounc.

Winter butter brings a good
price, and it ought to be made
every year in fair quantity. The
right kind Of feed must be sup

thing that is Juicy.
1t is easier to keep a COW in
good milk production than it is
to bring her back after she has
gone eff. Do not let a shortage
of pasture or feed reduce her
flow Of milk. Supply what is
needed and do it ia time.
No Southern dairyman should
be satisfied till he has provided
pasture that will grow during
the cool periods OF the year. Ii

milk production SO much that it
should never be neglected.
All breeds OF COWS have some
poor ones and some better, ones,
but the rue ia a cow OF some
dairy breed will give better re-
turns in the milk pail than
scrubs and beef breeds. But
there are times when the far mcr
does not care for much milk, and
he may be better satisfied with
a cow that yields more beef from
her carcass and that Of her off.
