district.
With the mine and mill once again on
a producing basis it should not be long
before the price of Fairview stock gets
stronger. This is a fine property and
the stock warrants a higher price than
it now commands on the market.
One of the most important events of
the past week was a strike made up in
Shoshone canyon on a group of W
claims owned by c. A. Garrecht, Tom
Gordon and the Berg brothers. The
property is located about two miles
northeast of Round Mountain.
In speaking of the discovery Mr.. Will
Berg said: "There is a dyke cutting
through the property and during the
week while prospecting, a number of
likely looking s%tringers were eneount-
cred in the dyke. Samples of these were
broken off and were assayed by me and
found to carry gold and silver values

PLANTING EUCALYPTUS FOR
MINE TIMBERs IN MEXICO

The Amparo Mining company has en-
tered into a contract with G. f. Wood
OF Guadalajara, for the raising of 5OO,-
600 eucalyptus trees on the company s
Embocada ranch, Etzatlan, Jalisco. The
trees will be raised from seed, and the
seed will be planted during the next
two or three years. 1t is expected to
have 10000 trees growing within the
next year. By the establishment of
the eucalyptus forest the Amparo com
pany plans to provide an abundant sup
ply of mine timbers for its properties.
rhe trees will be ready for cutting
within five years. A short time ago
the Amparo company made preliminary
arrangements with Mr.. Wood for the
planting of eucalyptus on the Embo-
cada ranch, but the decision to estab-
ASA a forest of a half million trees was
reached only a few days ago. Jesse
Scobey, general manager of the Virginia
and Mexico Mine and Smelter corpora
tion, has also made arrangements with
Mr.. Wood for eucalyptus planting, the
trees to be raised on ground adjoining
the company properties in the Hostoti-
~paquillo district of this state. Mr.
Seobey's concern may decide to follow
the example of the Amparo company
and establish an extensive forest.

HEAVY OUTPUT OF COPPER
MADE BY STEPT0E SMELIER

Ely. April 2~O.-James Phillips, Jrr
pres;dent of the Nevada Consolidated
Conner company. and s. W. Eccles, vice
president of the Steptoe Valley Smeit
inc and Mining company, arrived to-
day for the purpose of inspecting tire
progress of the work of the companies
and 10 advise with General Manager
Lakenan with regard to future opera
%tions..
While here. it is expected the gentle
men will give the final word to com
mence work on the fifth unit of the eon-
contractor, the plans for which are to be
completed by that time.
Production of blister copper is now
averaging 100000 pounds a day, or at
the rate of 100000 pounds a year.
Without putting any additional work
or the concentration, the output will
be increased in the mex thirty days by
additional facilities in the smelling
department. 1t has been found that
the c~oneentrator. in regular practice. Is
handling a larger quantity of ore than
it was expected to which has resulted in
a glut of product for the smelter see
tion, which has not been of sufficient
capacity to take it all. In conse-
quenee, there is said to be an aeeumuia-
tion at present of a surplus of concen-
trates that contain at least 2,000,O0O
pounds of metal. As soon as the IN
creased capacity of the reverb and CON
v,rtor section is available the surplus
will be used up and the regular amount
OF copper turned out will jump to large
figures.

Reports from Pioneer are to the eff.

made on the east side of the district.
by OHara and the Howard brothers,
who are operating on Divide claim No.
! on the northwest shoulder of Quart
ute mountain, a little over half a mile
from the TOWNSHIP of Pioneer. This
property lies 1000 feet to the north OF
the workings of the Tripolite company.
and is in a part of the district which
has heretofore been favorahly mention
cd in The News. The formation here
consists of enormou intrusions of
Iuartzite, and some brecciatcd rhyolite,

phyry, the quartzite and rhyolite and

Since Morgan and Stofelt secured
their lease on the Bluejacket claim and
logan to take out ore from the grass
roots the following leases have been let:

1t is a splendid commentary on the
property to record that every one of
those ~leasers are in ore, says the Round
Mountain Nugget. To be sure the ma
iority of them nave only surface
stringers which pan heavily of gold but
Il seems fair to assume that they will
all of them, or at least a greater part of
chem, have just what Morgan and Sto-
felt have.
This latter team of ~leasers are now
down about twenty-four feet and they
have two as well defined walls as have
ever occurred in this camp. One of the
mining men who has been in the dis
triet ever since the first pick was struck
into the camp has this to say: 81 came
into this camp when both the S%unnyside
and the Sphinx were prospect holes and
| have yet to see anything to equal
what Morgan and Stofelt have
For the first few feet these leasers
had a few high grade stringers of ore
which PANIED heavily of gold. Today
they are, at twenty-four feet, in a body
OF ore more than four feet wide, which,
according to Mr.. Morgan, will go in the
neighhorhood of 800 per ton if not
better.
