A farmer near Goliad had a novel
experience. A fow years ago he built
Il small barn, and in the construction
used green willow posts ut the corners
and along the sides. For some time
nothing unusual was noticed, but after
a year he saw that where he had laid
the floor near the ground it was three
feet above soil. He discovered that
the willow posts. instead Of being dead,
We're alive, had taken root and wero
growing. In their upward movement
they had carried the barn along. Last
spring the barn was on stills 9 feet
high, and he put in a new floor and
surrounded the posts with siding,
thereby making a two-story affair.
There is now a space Of 8 inches be-
tween the floor and the ground, and
the wncr expects to have 4 three-story
barn in the course of tlme.-Goliad.

INDIAN QUEEN WORK
WAS DONE APIDlY
Tunnel Driving Comes Close TO
Setting Record for State
of Utah.

All records for tunnel driving IN
Beaver county, if not in the state,
have been broken by the management
of the Indian Queen Mining company
Up to date the speed made by the
Newhouse company in its long tunnel
has held close TO record heights, this
work reaching as high as $50 feet per
month. But the Indian Queen for five
months has driven its tunnel an average
of 2l0 feet por month. This work
was not started until last October. one
year ago, and up to last May the work
was all done by single .lacklng- In
May the compressors and drills were
installed. since which work has not
paused for an instant,
In sending these figures to the local
management, Superintendent James
Quinn adds some interesting data rela-
tive to the present face of this long
tunnel. The face is now breaking into
another very significant change, and
ore is logical matter with any round
Of holes. Not far back from the face,
states Mr.. Quinn, the tunnel broke
into two changes, one bearing lead and
the other copper carbonate ores.
The new shaft is penetrating d VEN
seven feet in width, about half OF
which is lead and conner ore. This
working was down twenty feet at the
date of the letter. Mr.. Quinn predicts
that the next ten or fifteen feet Will
present some gratifying surprises III
all the work now going forward on this
property.

LUDWIG STILL HOLDS
SURPRISE At DEPTH
Ore Body on Fiye-Fifty Level
Better Than Was Ever
Expected.

In following the rich chalcocite ore
body Oh the j50-foot level Of the Lud.
wig property at Yerington, the manage
ment drove into ore toward the north
end OF the resources where it had there
tofore expected 10 find barren ground
Now it is safe TO estimate, said Gen
eral Manager w. c, Orem on Friday,
that this ore body at that point will
be fully eighty feet in width. On the
550-foot level the management has
opened up ore for a total distance OF
500 feet, and the north and south faces,
that distance apart, still arc being
showed into orc Of like grade as the
whole. This ore will not run below
6,5 per cent in its entirey.
Mr.. Orem and w. V. Rice, the latter
being tho treasurer of the Nevada
Douglas company, returned yesterday
from visit to this mine at Yering
ton. In addition TO the abovo sig
nifcant word relative to the develop
ments, they briug news that on the 500
foot level the same sort of ore is be
ing blocked out in q manner somewhat
like the developments on the level be
low. There is great big showing or
the 650.foot level also. but until Tho
now pump arrives there can be no very
extensive development work done al
that depth. Both gentlemen were de
lighted with the way the Ludwig prop
erLy is oDcnlnG.

OHIO COPPER GETS
IT'S MACHINERY IN

While the word from New York to
.'cut loose with u vengeance at the
Ohio Copper milling plant at Bingham
has not arrived yet, although II Is daily
expected, the management has a small
force OF men at work getting the prem
ises in shape for the hour when the order
does come The wisdom OF this was seen
a few days ago when the heavy snow
storm reached Bingham. as well as salt
Lake City. great deal OF heavy mill
machinery had been on the outside OF tho
completed building, and orders were given
TO get all this equipment under cover
while the sun was shining. Before the
snow came everything was safely housed
thus relieving the management from cut
ting the machinery loose from IN anchor
ing of Ice that would have been neces-
sary had less vigilance prevailed.
But the task Of getting the mill In
readiness for working on the Ohio Cop
per ores Will be timed sufficiently correct
10 bring everything into shipshape for
the hour when the mine Is ready to send
out It's ores. The company Is receiving
several carloads of equipment each week
and as fast as II now arrives a place Is
found for &, inside. BY the first OF the
coming month. the tunnel will have been
driven TO the point where the shaft
now descending. is TO meet this working
The affairs OF this Organization are IN
q very happy shape.

is PURCHASE OF
TETR0 POSSESSIONS
Splendid Acreage With Fine
Location Soon to Join Ac-
tive Column.

The impression that the Plutus and
the Tetro Mining companies have con-
solidated in the ordinary sense of the
term is erroneous, and David Evans.
one OF the officials and founders of the
Plutus company on Friday gave the
exact terms by which the deal consum-
mated late Wednesday evening was
rounded out. The Plutus purchases
outright the Tetro possessions, paying
therefor the sum of $4,000, a sum
equivalent to cents per share for the
100000 shares of stock. The Plutus
company offers to sell TO the Tctro
company's stockholders 100000 shares
of Plutus treasury stock for S24,Ouu,
which would be equivalent to giving
nine shares Of Plutus for ten shares OF
the Tetro, which undoubtedly would be
preferable 20 the stockholders OF the
Tetro company rather than sell their
stock for cents per share.
The Tetro stockholders will hold
special meeting on December % FOR
the purpose of ratifying or refusing
this proposition, and in case 1T Is ratl-
fled Mr. Evans stated yesterday that
development work would beGln lmmed'
lately via the Tetro workings under
the superintendcncy Of John Roundy,
who has gained such respect among
mining men for his performances at
the Colorado and. other Knight PROPOSE
tions of the Tintic camp.
The task of rounding out the Plutus
properties began in the snrIng Of 1921
since which. should the retro deal be
consummated by the stockholders, four
teen patented claims in the heart of the
Tintic district have been secured. The
former companies whose possessions are
included within the Plutus company
lines are the Plutus. Juab, North Nam
moth and Tetro. The claims are the
James G. Blaine, Plutus, Mahogany,
November, Stonewall Jackson, Silver
Alice, Medea, West Medea. Jason,
Tetro, Indian, Alabama, Africa and
Marion.
This property is a strip some 5000
feet in length by an average of 1900
feet N width lying Immediately to the
north of the Mammoth, east OF the
Grand Central and Victoria, and west
of the Godiva, OpeX and Uncle Sam
territories. It Is regarded as among
the most choice of the undeveloped
portions of the Tintic camp, and the
Plutus company has every incentive
now to get diligently at work IN search
of results. The Tetro property Is
equipped with hoist over its deep
shaft and compressors, so little time
need be lost in adding the Plutus 10

BEAVER CARBONATE
IS LOOKING GOOD
Seven Hundred Level Resource
Is Pleasing to Visitors
From East.
LOGICAL POINT Is
NOT YET REACHED
Richer Grades of Ore Are Due
When Known Bodies Are
Gained.

Charles O. EIlingwood of the Ma
tional Development company, accom-
panied by L. II. Schwartz, prom,
nent eastern capitalist, has returned
from Beaver county. where they made
an inspection of the Beaver Carbonate
property. Mr. Schwartz is one who has
invested heavily in Utah mines. among
his interests being substantial share
of tine Carisa stock, and before leaving
FRIDAY noon for the east he expressed
to Mr., Ellingwood his complete salts
faction over this Carisa Investment. He
went through this Jintic property en-
route from Beaver county.
Mr.. Ellingwood is pleased beyond
measure with the Beaver Carbonate. In
New York he had received numerous
reports of the ore body that was being
opened on the T00-foot level. and he
found the real conditions up TO his eX-
pcctations. if not in excess of them.
The ore body contains considerable
shipping grade of rock, but 1T mainly is
of a milling quality as yet. 1t is a
trihe early now to predict that the
proposition, but should it prove so the
officials are determined to install COM
plete milling plant to reap the rewards
due from it.
But inasmuch as this ore body was
encountered anywhere from so to 100
feet from the objective point OF the
work on the 700foot level, there is
plenty of time for the drift now being
pushed forward to break into the ship
ping grades of lead.silver ores for
which this old producer is famous, This
drift will be continued TO the logical
point, which is somewhere about 200
feet below the old Slopes, This ore is
of splendid grade, and allowed liberal
profits when the conditions for market
ing the rock were far less favorable
than they are today.
At Eureka Messrs. Ellingwood and
Schwartz visited the Eureka Lily prop
erty. as well as the Carisa. With the
former Mr.. Ellingwood is very much
satisfied. The management has com
pleted all the new buildings, the ma
cbiuery is en- route, and should arrive
the FIRST of the coming week, and the
task of retimbering the shaft is being
pushed vigorously, In this property is
