A. W., Seattle, Wash.-The eos. Of
four men on a prospecting trip would
all depend upon the outfit and the
country prospected. In this country to
cover any considerable territory it is
necessary to 60 by wagon, or with a
burro team. Four men might get
along with one wagon, but it would be
better to have two, as the party could
spread out and prospect more ground
in the same general locality. In the
north country there is more food and
water than in the southern country. If
the party intends to keep away from
the beaten trails, far into the wilds, it
will be necessary to take along a good
supply of grub and in the south
ern country water is the essential thing,
and no party of prospectors should
start out without first having a good
prospector's or government map, show
ing the water holes. A party of four
with two wagons, should get along
f, with $50 per month each. We would
not know where to suggest your going
as the whole state of Nevada is being
prospected and good finds are reported
in every section. A new railroad is
to be built from Goldfeld to Ely, which
will open up a good mining country
and the people who get good Locations
along this route will be in luck, as be
ing near to transportation facilities,
which is very important in this big
country.

small investor had as good a chance to
buy Mohawk, Red Top, Jumbo, Flor

time as any other stocks. They were all
prospects at one stage of the game and
sold for as many cents as they now DO
dollars. One does not hear of any buy
ers of these stocks in the prospect stage
kicking on their investments IN
Goldfeld. The trouble with yoursel
