MINING, MARKETS AND METAL
LANDS UNDER DESERT ACT.
settlers Rapidly Making Application
The Necessary Form of
Procedure.

The taking up of western lands,
classified by the government as des-
ctr tracts, has become SO widespread
that there is frequent and unstinted
prediction that the close of another
two years will see the wiping out of
all desirable chances in communities
where irrigation is possible, Under
this act, any American citizen born
in this country. is entitled to 800
acres. and any citizen either natural
lied or giving proof of intention to
become a citizen, is entitled to 160
acres under the homestead act I ne
initial cost is 25 cents an acre, and
the improvements necessary amount
to 81 an acre year, Also. the land
must be fenced within a given time
The improvements are carried on
either by cultivating the land on
shares, or by other visible signs of
lettering 1t or preparing 1t for ditch
es. Any person who has served In
the army of this country is entitled
to 12O acres by merely blowing a
furrow around the area. without
other expense. Taxes do not begin
on this land until patents have been
received from the governmental
the expiration of two years.
The total cost of securing $50
acres. including the work of the four
years. will probably total not much
over 1900. Land under ditch sells
for about $50 an acre. and broken
and capable of cultivation without
other strenuous efforts. commands
around 500 an acre. In other words,
the desert land offers to the ambi-
tious American more than ordinary
opportunities. Even without I'M
provements of marked nature. this
land, at the end of four years. should
return fully $50 an acre profit.
1t is as easy to write to one of the
government land offices for particu-
lars as 1t is to send for a catalogue.

Pine Nut UncOvers
Another Rich
Copper Ledge

GARDNERVlLLE, New. March Il.
W. Walker and associates. mining
men of Colorado, have just uncov-
cred one of the richest copper lodges
yet To be found in the Pine Nut dis
trict. The location of the new strike
is midway between the claims of
Hickey & Emigh and John Donelly
and is about 10 miles from Gardner
vile. The ledge is eight feet in
with and has been uncovered for a
distance of 30 feet The entire ledge
Is highly coIored with copper and a
seam two feet wide runs through the
center of the ledge assaying from 25
to 81 per cent copper About II
tons of this ore has been extracted
and is now on the dump. More is
being taken from the mine each day
and probably the ore will be shipped
as soon as the snow leaves the NOUN
tain side, but as yet has not been
thoroughly decided upon.
The strike is one of the most i'm
portant made this winter and Is sit
uated in the mineralized zone of the
promising district which has at
traeted SO much attention of late.
This strike. along with other encour-
aging reports from the district. is
very convincing evidence that Pine
Nut will see great activity this sum-
mer.

FEATURELESS
WAS THE DAY
Market Was Slow With
Only Brokers Partici-
patine in the Trading

Although Cumberland Ely and Me-
vada Consolidated, with the other
local issues held their own during
yesterday, the market both here and
in New York was practically drug.
Brokers only entered the field, par
ticipating in stock buying operations,
the general public seemingly being
afraid to invest, being uncertain.
Toward the latter part of the day,
however, buying was started by out
siders with some vigor and today
promises to present better and more
interesting phases. Locally the day
was slow in sympathy with the gen.
eral tone of the country. Only 2.6s5
shares of stock changed hands. The
distribution was principally among
the smaller priced locals, although
one block of Cumberland Ely at the
top price of the day was disposed of.
The sales were as follows: Black
horse Phoenix, 500 at IN +: 200 Butte

NEW YORK
IS PUZZLED
Market Changes During
Yesterday We're Con-
fusine to Stock Buyers

NEW YORK. March 19.@The
stock market gave evidence today of
continued operation of opposing
forces IN the speculation. The move
ment shifted so constantly, however.
and presented such sharp contradic-
tions in some of its demonstrations
that 1t had the effect of greatly up
setting another confusing speculative
sentiment and causing suspicion I'M
til stocks were unloaded in haste.
The strong recovery In yesterdays
late market was held to be an inr
fallible sign that the bull leadership
had let down prices ON Monday and
early yesterday merely for the pur-
pose of shaking off weak specula-
tive following and for the advantage
of buying back stocks which they
had themselves sold out at profit.
The sharp break which developed
today after moderate advance prov
ed disconcerting to this view of the
situation. Incidents in the days
news were against rise In prices.
The market showed primary resist
anee. however. to the principal of
these. which was the reduction in the
New York Central dividend rate from
to per cent basis. This ac-
ton caused no great surprise, as the
original advance in the dividend
rates was regarded in view of the
market as bearing rather ON the
making attractive of new issues in
contemplation than on the rate of
earnings of the company.
Authoritative statement carried in
the Associated Press dispatches from
Washington clearly defined the much
discussed probability of special
message from the president relating
to legislative measures which have
been subject of conferences at the
White house for some time past.
With that subject thus removed from
the realm of mystery much of the
occupation was gone 70 ran element
which has made use in the stock
market of vague rumors on this sub
ject.
The picking out of National Lead
for a sharp advance. evidently for
sustaining effect on the general list.
was based upon its sustained divi-
dend record and the disproportion of
its price to the dividend compared
with other prominent industrial
stocks. The effect. however, was to
aggrayate the general weakness rath-
er than to relieve It, The know
ledge that men influential in the steel
trade were in conference in this city,
and intimations that trade condi-
lions here reported were not bearing
out recent predictions of betterment.
weighed on the market severely and
made the most substantial factor in
