WANTS SUGAR BEETs
GAINESVILLE Company Making Overtures
to Kenosha County Farmers


There will be a lot Of sugar beets
raised in Kenosha county this year and
the best part Of it is that the farmers
will take no chances in trying the new
crop. Representatives of a sugar fac
tory at GAINESVILLE are now in the city
contracting with the farmers for the
use of the land. The farmers are only
required to prepare the land for plant
ing and the seed is planted and the crop
harvested by workmen employed by the
company and the farmer receives
cash rental for the use of his land. It
is said that this plan is being followed
in order to show the Kenosha county
farmers that the raising of sugar beets
is very profitable industry.

WIN FROM RACINE
Kenosha Whist Players Put
Players From Heyer Club
in Racine To Rout
EVERY TEAM PROVES WINNER

The members Of the Kenosha Whist
Club completely routed the members of
the Heyer Club of Racine in the first of
a home and home series played at the
Elks Club room on Monday night, the
visitors making a poor showing in com
parison with the former matches play
ed between the two clubs. The Keno
sha team had total plus score Of "a
81, the defeat being the most singing
defeat ever administered to the Racine
club by Kenosha Whist players
Twenty eight boards were played and
not one of the Racine teams returned
a plus score. It should be said as a
mitigating circumstance to the defeat
of the Racine club that some Of the
men who had formerly played with the
Racine team were unable to come to
Kenosha last night and that one sub
stitute team was placed in the Racine
column to mako up the match
After the match was ever the mem
bers Of the Kenosha team entertained
the Racine players at a smoker and they
caught the midnight train for home.
The two teams will play the second
match Of the series at the rooms. Of the
Hcyer club in Racine on Monday even
ing and the victory Of last night seems
to indicate that the Kenosha Whist
players will have little trouble taking
the series this time. The two teams
have been playing each other for the
past six years and with the victory of
last night Of the Kenosha players each
have won an equal number of matches.
The score Of the match Monday even
ing was us follows:

WILL SINK TO THE DEEP
IN WILD BULL PROPERTY

Frank Bird. secretary of the Wild Bull
Mining & Milling company, operating in
Wild Horse canyon, in the Seven Trougns
district, while on recent visit to Love-
lock, gave out the information that leas-
ers on his cOmpanys ground had encoun-
tered some very high-grade ore and that
the latest reports from the property indi-
Gated that another producer would soon
be added to the already long list in the
district.
The lease in question is commonly
known as the Black lease and recently
changed hands, having been purchased by
Messrs. Brown, Rice and others The con-
sideration is said to have been $1,000 The
lease is located about 175 feet north of the
company shaft and has been opened by
an eighty-foot shaft and crosscut.
Recently a two-foot ledge of quartz was
cut in one of the crosScuts and the sam
pies taken gave an average return OF 80
in gold to the ton A three-inch stringer.
however, lying next to the hanging wall
returned gold values to the tune of SILL
900 to the ton. Considering the amount OF
work done the showing is regarded as
marvellous and those interested are con-
fident bonanza will be opened up sooner
or later. The owners are planning the
installation of a hosting plant and other
necessaries for rapid mining and propose
to prosecute development work on an
elaborate scale.
In speaking of the company's operations
Mr.. Bird said that work in the shaft,
which is now 125 feet deep. had to be sus-
pended temporarily owing to the great in
fluX of water. The company will install
a pumping plant and when this is done
sinking will be resumed. While awaiting
the arrival of the pump the management
will drive a croSscut to the ledge from the
1O0-foot level This work is<noW being
done and when the ledge is tapped good
values are expected

YAMPA PROPERTIES
PRAISED IN BOSTON

The Yampa mines and smelter at Bing-
ham, Utah. controlled by the Tintic Min
ing company, which is capitalized for 200, :
900 s. shares, are making a notable record
and are now prominent in the production
of copper in the state of Utah. The smell
ter is now completed to treat 500 tons or
ore per day with convertors to convert
the smelter product into blister copper
The company is now producing about fif-
teen tons of blister copper daily. which
means an output of about 100000 to LOCO
900 pounds of copper per month. Inc
Yampa ores contain substantial gold and
silver values, so that the copper costs are
between and s cents. says the Boston
News Bureau.
On the present copper market the YAM
pa is earning for the Tintic company at
the rate of about IS cents per share. This
company is controlled somewhat in the
nature of a close corporation. and infor-
nation as TO the financial condition is not
allowed to become public property. The
extent of the company's floating debt.
therefore is not known. but it is known
that the Yampa is a valuable property ad-
joining the Utah Consolidated, that it now
has a well-equipped smelling plant and
is in a position to add very materially to
the value of the Tintic company's shares.
That company has an ownership In
about 5000 acres of mineral territory in
the Tintic district. which has been under
development for some years, but has yet
failed to prove up in ORE

MYSTERIOUS OWNERSHIP
TALK IN UTAH APEX

1t is believed that the London interest
In the Utah Apex company has been very
materially reduced, and that the London
stock is now largely held on this side of
the water. There are 524 600 outstanding
shares of the Utah Apex company, and
up to within two years an absolute ma
jority of the stock was held abroad Since
the death of Everett b. Webster, who was
instrumental in securing the large foreign
interest. the foreign-held stock has been
gradually coming here. and London holds
probably less than 100000 shares today.
At the annual meeting in Portland, Me-.
a week ago there was hardly an English
proxy. In fact, at that meeting 1t was
with difficulty that a majority of the
stock was secured to hold the meeting,

Care Should Be Exercised.

In loaning any large sum of money on
mining stocks whether they pay good div
idends or promise to in the early future,
bank should take every precaution to
avoid loss by Misrepresentation. Because
the directors of the mining company are
captains of industry" who in any one of
the multiple ways are connected with the
Standard Oil coterie. the United States
Steel Corporation. or any other of the
widely advertised combinations of capt
tai. should not suffice Every share OF
mining stock offered as collateral to a
bank should represent its part of the loan
made-the signature of a prominent man
or the euphonious title of the mine should
not affect the better judgment of the en-
gineers who have reported on the prop
erty. A legitimate mining enterprise can
stand the closest investigation; property
whose operations are shrouded in mystery
will need the X-ray to detect the fraud
of its selected board of directors.
That udiciously managed mines of merit
will, as a rule, yield good dividends on a
reasonable capitalization. is evidenced by
the statistics that are collected and pub
lished regularly in the Mining World. BY
dividends we mean the division OF profits
earned in working mine. not the money
that has been obtained by selling stock
to investors The practice of allowing
stock buyers a rebate In the form of
dividend" is one of several that has dis
credited mining shares generally and in
duced many bankers to refuse these Sc
curities as collateral for loans.

Private Banks Loan on Stocks.

II is known that private. bankers will
make loans on good mining securities,
and, in fact, this custom is becoming
more general. for the reason that quite a
number of the smaller banking institu-
gained by their promoters in mining. OF
course, these get-rich-quick bankers will
often advise a depositor not to speculate
in mining shares. and as often will they
refuse to accept such stock as collateral
for a needed loan.
Where a mine is producing and the re-
porting engineers agree that it will yield
an equitable interest on the capital invest
ed. bankers generally ought not to hest
tate to take the shares as collateral for
any reasonable loan. At the same time
it should not be the policy of these bank
ers to charge an exorbitant rate of inter-
est for protection"
Often banks will act as registrars for
mining companies; that is, only in such
cases where they are absolutely sure OF
the standing of the men behind the enter
prise. To be registrar for a supposed
fraudulent mining company would dis
credit any bank no matter how influential
il might be. Sometimes it will happen
that a reputable bank has been forced to
the wall as a result of wild speculation
in mining shares by certain of its direc-
tors. We have read of several cases or
this kind during the last two years, but
they cannot be considered fair arguments
against bank loans on mining shares of
proved value.

.LOAN-MAK|NG ON
MINING STOCKS
Subject Is Receiving Attention
in Mining and Banking
Business Circles.

The idea to have banks made substan-
tial loans on mining stocks of merit as
they do on railroad and other securities
that are subject TO market fluctuations, is
worthy OF careful consideration. says Sat
urday's Mining World.
A system already exists by which GER
tain banks in New York and elsewhere
will accept as collateral for limited loans
the stock of mining companies with which
men of known reputation in the financial
world are connected in some way. In
other words, these loans are often made
TO favor a particular person or corpora
ton that offers the mining stock as col
lateral, and generally the banks charge
interest that is high enough to protect
them against a possible loss.
AS a rule, however, the eastern banks
do not care to encourage loans on mining
stocks. perhaps for the reason that there
has been altogether too much flimflam
by spectators who either do not give
full particulars about their securities or
are unable to do so because the mines
represented on paper have a doubtful fu-
ture.

Sapphires in Matrix.
The blue sapphires of Fergus county,
often called "Yogo'' sapphires, range in
size from minute crystals up to those
OF or carats. Rarely crystals Of :
or 10 carats are found. but the greater
number weight under 3 carats. A large
quantity OF small sapphires classed as
culis, is also obtained. This material
the flattened form of many of the crys-
tails rendering them specially suitable for
this purpose. In color the Yogo sap
phires range from light blue to the rich
cornflower" blue characteristic of the
Oriental sapphire. They make beautiful
gems and are highly priced for their col
or and brilliancy. Probably over 30 per
cent of the sapphire is of good blue
color and of gem quality. Occasionally
purplish gems are found.
Sapphire in Auriferous GraveIs.
The auriferous placer deposits on Dry
Cottonwood creek are located at an ele-
walton of 5000 feet, nearly 1,500 feet above
the valley OF Deerlod&e river. to which
the creek is tributary. The gravels i'll
the gulches are from 10 to IA feet thick
and the beds are from 40 to 100 feet wide.
The gold carried by the gravels and re-
fine, although nuggets worth several dol
lars are said to have been found Ii is
claimed that the value of the gold re-
covered is sufficient to pay operating ex-
penses. The larger part of the sapphire
of this locality can be used for mechan-
ical purposes only, but some of the crys-
tails are suitable in size, color and quail
ity for cutting gems.
The predominant colors of these sap
phires are deep and light aquamarine and
pale yellowish green. Other colors are
clear and smoky blue. light and dark
topaz yellow. straw yellowsh green, and
light and dark pink. Some stones are
nearly ruby red. lilac and pale amethys-
tine. and some are colorless. Ii is not un-
usual to find aquamarine-colored stones
with pink spot in the center-a combi-
nation that furnishes an attractive gem
when cut. The deep pink sapphires are
particularly rich and beautiful under ar
tificial light even when not very at
tractlve in natural light.
