Senator Oddie Sells Ranching Interests

One Of the biggest land deals made in Nevada in a number Oh
years, says the Tonopah Bonanza of December IL, was consumma'ed
in this city Tuesday, when Henry G. Stimler of Goldheid ana
William A. Marsh purchased Of Senator I. l. Oddie his famous
Pine Greek and other ranches, located in the central part OF Nye
County. The purchase price of the property is not made puonc'
but the estate is looked upon as one of the most valuable In Nevada
and is known to have been held by Senator Oddie to be worth IN
the neighborhood Of 100000.
The deal is of special interest to the public, as the purchasers
now own and control nearly all the ranches and ranges Oh
and Ralston valleys, covering an area of 81 miles, and IL Is ner ~
teption a little later to use the electric power that can be developed
by Pine Greek for agricultural purposes in the valleys named Inns
will throw open for cultivation large tracts OF what are now arru
lands, and enhance the value of those lands at once a hundredfoio'
In addition to the Pine Greek ranch purchased by Senator
Oddie some six years ago, and on which he has expended more than
s1OO 600 the deal includes the transfer of the Corcoran, Haystacks,
John Cool. Northumberland, Punchbowl and Ike McGonigal ranches
Miles of hay lands belonging to the properties are under fence, and
hundreds of acres are planted in alfalfa and grain. The deal also
;ncludes the transfer of the celebrated blooded stock belonging to
Senator Oddie. part of which were purchased from the late Governor
part imported, and many of which have taken prizes In
exhibitions throughout the country. These animals include French
draft horses. thoroughbred trotting and race horses and Hereford
cattle. One of the imported stations cost $1,000 In France, and
several of the Hereford bulls cost $1,000 each.
The new owners of Pine Greek are already heavily interested In
land and cattle in Nye County, having purchased Hunts canyon
from the Hunt estate, about three years ago. With the improve
ments. horses and cattle, this ranch is valued at $4,000 All the
properties will be operated in conjunction with each other under
the management of w. A. Marsh, who is recognized as one OF the
best cattlemen in Nevada. With the purchase of the Oddie
properties, Marsh and Stimler will now control the Summer range
of the high mountains, as we'll as the Winter ranges OF Ralston
valley, making a desirable combination, and doing away with the
Winter feeding of cattle belonging to the ranches.

Simple Device Saves Money In Mines

Goldfeld Chronicle Recently a simple little continuance was
put in place at the mouth of the Montgomery tunnel at Rhyollte
which, if put in general use, promises to save many mines hundreds
of dollars monthly for the one item Of fuel alone. In all mines not
supplied with air shafts some means must be had to get the powder
smoke out, where two or more shifts are employed, and for this an
air pipe is run into the mine close to where the miners are working
On the outer end of this pipe a Sibley stove is attached in which a
fire is built to create a draught that pulls out the smoke, and in a
country like this wood for one of these stoves, where two shifts are
working, costs nearly $3.50 per month.
The new " smoke puner" which was placed on the Montgomery
Mountain is somewhat similar to the Sibey, but burns distillate
instead of wood.
One quart of oil an hour will run the stove and it does the
work of drawing out smoke better than does the wood affair, which
means a saving of at least 500 a month.
j. R. Lane, Thomas Kilker, Chas. Stevens and W. Sisk are the
originators Of the new "smoke extractor, as they call it, and 1t
certainly will prove a money saver wherever fuel is scarce.

Good Breedine's Importance

Good BREEDING will tide over many an awkward spot in life, and
good breeding is not uncommon. 1t fourishes in several grades Of
society and is often lacking in high circles where it is expected
Men and women who are brought up to refined living seldom find
employment in the other kind, although a few are able to keep to il
in sordid surrounding.
Education is an important feature of modern life, but it is in
no way allied with good breeding. There are educated Doors with
ont number. and refined women whose book knowledge is of the
scanty variety. As a rule, a finishing school does a girl more real
than a college course, but this belief is based on knowledge O.
women from both places.

$1OOW orth of Assessment ork For $45

Goldfeld Chronicle Complaint is being made that certain
persons are contracting to perform the annual work on mining
claims in this district for sums much less than that required by law.
1t is said that in many cases contractors have taken this work at as
low as $45 for each claim and have bound themselves to furnish
certificates of labor performed for such sums.
Such a practice is directly in violation OF the law which
demands that the sum of 500 be expended annually upon I'M
patented claims in order to retain title thereto, and is a fragrant in
Justice to legitimate operators and owners of mining property who
are willing to comply with the laws requirements in these matters
1t has been stated emphatically, and the claim apparently is
vel. substantiated, that numerous mining claims have been held in
this district and elsewhere with an amount Of labor performed
which is entirely inadequate to establish a right to their retention
in case the title were to be questioned and the matter aired in the
courts. If this practice is persisted in it is not unlikely that the
ownership of some claims may be contested next year.
