RAMSEY CONTINUESTO
PRODUCES RICH ORE
Many Men are Working In the
Mines and the Camp Con-
tinues to Prospera

taking out a goOdly supply of ship
ping ore. More drifting on the var
iOus levels is constantly adding to
the extent OF the ore shoots. thus
creating a greater ore reserve all the
Will. The ore teams are OF the
go continually and because OF the
short haul to the shipping point get
rid of the sacked ore very fast. bur
the additional force Of miners and
another level to work on keeps
plenty OF the rich product on hand:
An order for cars will be sent 10 The
railroad company in few days and
another shipment will be loaded and
forwarded to the smelJers.
Il is not surprising TO note the
amount OF free gold contained in
some Of the ore obtained in the lower
levels. Some pieces are sensation
ally rich and show gold on all sides.

carry gold. which makes the ore as,
