boiler should be filled with cold water
with a little of the melted soap added.
Melted soap can be made very easily
by adding hot water to shredded soap
and then allowing it to melt on the
stove. Do not fill the pan too full Or
the soap will boil over. Hot instead of
the cold water discolors the linen.
The clothes should be allowed to boil
for fifteen minutes and then placed in
a tub filed with cold water They
should not boil too long or they will
take on a vellowish tinge. Wiring tight
" out of this water and then rinse in
plenty of tepid water. The rinsing is
one of the particular processes about
the washing. The cold water should be
tinged with blue and each article
should be dipped into this, care be-
ing taken that they do not lie too long
in the blue. After this wiring out the
clothes and hand them on the line to
dry. Cold water starch is used for
shirt fronts, collars and cuffs, the pro
portion being one tablespoonful of
starch to one cupful of cold water.

A young girl who was about to be

Il am not good housekeeper," she

without eating than cook my own food
Washing and ironing and sweeping

But l am a good stenographer. And

Now the man I'm going to marry

not enough to keep maid. My bust

sure that if 1 had a maid-which l
easily could afford with the money

without any trouble.
Il have the same hours as my hus-

in the form of pork, or hogs on the

way of disposing of the product.
Milk Fed chickens" have become
standard, fancy meat product on
some city product markets. For the
dairyman who carries poultry as a
strong side line to the dairying, the
growing and finishing of milkfed
poultry offers very large profits for
disposal of the skimmilk. The flesh of
chickens fattened and finished on skim
milk as the principal diet, in connec-
ton with crushed grains, is very light,
tender and juicy. BY securing a good
market where this class of poultry is
in demand, and carefully meeting the
demands of the trade, the skimmilk
can be made to bring large net re-
turns. In some places chickens are
purchased, confined and finished for
market on milk and ground feds, the
milk constituting the larger portion
Of the diet.
Butter or cream. and meats of all
kinds are concentrated finished pro-

Messrs. Cook and Wheeler Of
Goldheld passed through Tonopah
yesterday from Rawhide. To frienos
here they stated that they had puy-
chased the Murray mill at the latter
camp in addition to securing some
attractive leases there. They have
closed a deal whereby they will
work a lease of 100 feet OF the
Prosky No. 1 claim, the Ogilvie-
Reynolds lease on the Queen estate
and another lease on the Victor
claim. They report good orc in the
latter with excellent prospects on
the former. 1t is their intention to
begin active operations at once and
to treat the ore as extracted in th.'
mill they have purchased. Each
gentleman speaks glowingly of Raw
hides future. They stated that they
would send some ore to this city for
exhibition purposes.

mornings since the finding of a
piece of float in the lease workings
Just beneath the surface which car
ried good values in gold and silver.
Since the finding of this ore, the
shaft has been sunk to a depth of
six feet or more. In the bottom,
what appears to be a ledge of near
" three feet in width has made its
appearance, assays from which re-
turn values above 500 per ton,
the gold and silver being about
equal. This is not to say that the
entire vein averages that amount,
but the smallest assay received from
picked samples ran not less than
$500.
On account of the little amount
of work which has been done, it Is
hard to say whether the vein mat
ter occurs in a ledge in place or
whether il is in a boulder. 1t re-
mains a fact, however, that the in
dications are favorable for a ledge
of strong, permanent proportions.
The next few days will determine
the stability of the ore body.

Not since the days when Tonopah
was in it's swaddling clothes, has a
find created a greater amount of
excitement. There is little romance
connected with it. 1t was a belief
that ore existed on the claim that
caused the gentlemen who are oper-
ating the lease to secure the right
to work the same. 1t is even hint
ed that one of the partners knew
that there was a ledge thereon that
could be proftably mined. Every
thing at this time points to the fact
that he knew whereof he spoke.
The lease is practically in the
heart of the district. Up to this
time little, II any ore has ever been
found on the south side. The Cali
fornia shaft is down several hun
dred feet, during the progress Of
which no ore was encountered. 1t
was a simple matter for the Cali
fornia people to miss the vein.
Where Messrs. Herring, Nicholson
and Sparks are working there is ore
and the fact that none was found in

RAILROADS TO REDUCE RATES

The railroad commission has no
tilted the Southern Pacific that they
believe that their entire schedule
of rates upon intra-state freight
within the state Of Nevada upon the
main line of the Central Pacific rail-
road is excessive, unjust, %unreason-
able and discriminatory and that they
believe that all such class rates
should be reduced 80 per cen and
that the subject will be thoroughly
investigated on August II.
They have also notified the Ne
vada and California railway com
pany that they have the same opin-
ion of their rates and that they be-
lieve that they should be reduced
10 per cent and have set the same
date for the railroad to appear and
show why this action should not be
taken.

Information from Pittsburg is to
the effect that arrangements are be-
ing made to resume operations on
the Golden Anchor properties in this
district. 1t is proposed to clear the
Golden Anchor of the Indebtedness
that hangs over it and to purchase
additional ground. To accomplish
this the Tonopah Merger Mining
company has been organized for

spirit in the new promotion, in a
circular to the stockholders of the
Golden Anchor Mining company,
says:
"As you are aware, the property
of your company, located at Tono-
pah, Nevada, became deeply involved
in debt during prosecution of de-
velopment operations in 1905 and
1906. Conditions in the country
since that time have changed very
materially and the condition at the
Tonopah camp in particular have
been greatly improved. Men of high
standing familiar with both camps
hold to the opinion that Tonopah
will develop into a second Com
stock-the formation being striking
ly similar. They claim the real
riches Of Tonopah will be found at
depth. 1t has been proved beyond
a doubt that it is a camp of great
area of high and low grade ore
bodies and the Golden Anchor prop
critics are very favorably situated to
