The second annual report of the Gold
field Consolidated Mines company, for
the year ending October 81, 1908, Was
issued today, Saturday, January 80.
The report is dated January 2, 1909.
1t was submitted to meeting Jan. IL,
but was not issued to stockholders un-
til today, Jan. 80, owing to delays IL
printing.
The general report embodies the re-
port of the president, general manager,
treasurer and auditor.
Because Of the late hour at which this
report became available, it is impos-
sible at this time to give more than a
cursory review.
The president IS report states that at
the commencement of the present fiscal
year the total cash on hand including
ore and concentrates in transit
amounted to $9l1 ,295.73, after the mil
and all its equipment was paid for
The plans of the company for the con
struction of 100-stamp mill and cyan
ide plant capable of treating 600 tons
of ore per day, were fully carried out
at cost of approximately 100000. A
railroad two miles in length, fully
equipped, was completed, connecting
the mine and the mill. A pipe line
two-thirds of mile long, with reser

sufficient to supply the mill with water

WILL SINK JOINT SHAFT

An agreement has been made between
the Rustler Fraction lessees and the
Florence Extension company, operating
on the Consolidated, whereby both coi,-
panies will use the same shaft, and will
jointly sink it to greater depth. The
Extension shaft is down 600 feet, and a
contract will soon be let to sink to 500
The Rustler is controlled by Eugene
Meyer of New York, H. G. Cannon ane
w. NJ. Erb, and the Extension company
is represented by Web Parkison.

A very promising vein has been cut
by the Hall Florence shaft at deptn
of $50 feet, and drifting is now in pro-
gress to find a pay shoot. A nice body
OF quartz is being followed by the drift,
and indications are good for it to turn
into ore at almost any time. The work
on this lease has been pushed at a
record making pace, in determination
to get to the ore as quickly as possible,
and unless all signs fail, they will be iii
the shipping list before long. The lease
is most favorably situated, being be-
tween the Eogers Syndicate and Little

Rights Are Settled


Rights Are Settled
The report refers to the settlement of
rights between the Jumbo Extension
Mining company and the Goldfeid Con-
solidated, by which the latter company
came into possession of the Gold
Wedge claim, and stipulation that all
ore found in the Vinegorone and in the
Pole Verde claims Of the Jumbo Exten-
sion, upon veins apexing in grouni
owned by the Consolidated, or any Of
its constituent companies, should be
divided equally between the Jumbo Ex-
tension and the Consolidated. This set
tlement, coupled with the sideline
agreement with the Combination Frac-
tion, by which each company confines
itself to it's vertical sidelines, pre-
eludes any serious apex litigation for
many years.
During the year Consolidated sold
the Victor lode claim of Is acres 10
the c. o. ID. Consolidated Mining com
pany. The sale was made upon con-
sideration of 20 l-6 per cent of the capi-
tai stock of the G. o. d. Consolidate
Mining company, exclusive of treasury
stock, which gave the Consolidated
5S3, ,7S5 shares of the full capitalization
of 100000 shares. The sale was
made because the Victor claim was
segregated at distance from the pro
ductive claims of the Consolidated AMI
because of danger Of apex litigation.

most favorably considered in the early
days of Goldfeld, but development
work was not productive of satisfactory
results at that time. Now, however, ii

The owners of the lease have been
very reticent about the strike for rea-

the present showing we expect to be
kept busy until that time taking oua
ore. We did not care to sink 10 . depth

we made an agreement with the Con
solldated company whereby We paid
them $4,000 with which the company
can sink the shaft to geo Feet after we

II was simply an arrangement that was
mutually satisfactory to both sides,

STILL IN GOOD ORE

The Daisy Florence is making about
the same favorable showing as was re-
p,rted last week. having nice streak
of very good ore in the stope above the
eco foot level. Steady shipments are
being made. and If the expectations OF
the management are realized, they VIII
be largely increased, as the showing Is
very promising for the ore body 10
open out much larger than its present
proportions.

AFTER HIGH GRADE ON DAISY

A gasoline hoist has been installed
ON the Daisy lease on the old Deteh-
Brewer workings on the Daisy, and
work will be vigorously prosecuted to
pick up the high grade ore shoot that
made this ground prominent three
years ago. One carload at that time
returned $4,000. The lessees expect
to have to drift $50 feet to get into the
old ore body.

Giving the entire tonnage treated at
the mills a very conservative estimate
of $35 per ton, as an average, the out
put of these four mills will yield the
enormous sum of $l2,775,0O0 per aa-
mum.
This is exclusive of the high grade
shipping ores which will be eneoun-
tered and extracted in the course of de-
than is generally estimated by the man
agement of the properties represented
in the milling list. At an average of
$40 per ton, the annual output OF the
mills will reach $14,600,000.
AS astounding as these figures may
seem, they represent in q conservative
way the great possibilities and prom Sc
of the Goldfield of today, based upcn
present milling facilities and working
plans. 1t shows the substantial, healthy
growth made by this camp, an infant
five years ago, "knocked and dis
credited as nc other camp ever was, bat
today towering like a giant above
them all.

Report On OregOns' Tour.

A meeting Of the stockholders in the
Oregons basketball project was held
in the rooms of the LaCreole Club,
Wednesday night for the purpose OF
hearing the report Of H. l.. Fen
ton, who acted as business manager
of the team on its Eastern trip.
Although the report showed a con-
siderable deficit, the amount required
to make up the lack will not be great
and it is estimated that a payment OF
20 cents on the dollar from those who
subscribed to the backing of the enter
prise will be sufficient. The report
shows that the trip was managed in a
most economical and careful manner.
The failure to make clear, was caused
not so much by relesshandling of the
funds. as by the difficulty in securing
large enough proportion OF the gate
receipts at many Of the games to pay
more than bare expenses. In several
cases the Oregons' share Of the gate
receipts was not even enough TO cover
travelling expenses. Those who sub
scribed to the support Of the enter
prise, however, seem in no wise in
clined to regret their investment, as it
is considered by all that the advertis-
ing which Dallas received during the
tour of the Oregons, is well worth the
expenditure.

PROMINENT STOCK MEN
Three Large Breeders of Northern
Polk Attract Complimentary
Notice.

E. A. Rhoten, field representative Of
the Pacific Homestead, published in a
recent issue of that periodical, an
interesting series of observations on
the livestock and farming industry in
the northern portion of Polk county,
as noted enroute from Salem to Nc
Minnville. From these we CLEAN the
following paragraphs:
"Near Mccoy, 1 saw Hon. q. l..
Hawley, who had recently returned
from helping make the state laws. Mr..
Hawley was an important factor in
getting several valuable bills passed
and was a good man for the place.
However, I believe he enjoys working
with his flock of Lincolns better than
anything else that he does. Lambing
season was we'll on with him and he
won't miss $50 per cent very far with
his eighty breeding ewes.
"The Domes farm was near and we
stopped to see how Walter and his Jer-
seys were making it. So far as know
this is the only Jersey herd in the state
outside of Ladd's Hazel Fern herd that
are being officially tested. They started
this test last November and Walter
says that it is now an assured fact that
all that they have entered in the test
will enter the register of merit. One
COW with her second calf gave 1243
pounds of milk in January with ga
per cent test. They have number of
others nearly as good and we will
expect some yearly records that the
state will be proud Of. The Domes'
herd OF Hampshire swine are novelty
in this part Of the country, to say the
least. Mr.. Domes has had these only
since last fall, but says the more he
sees of them the better he likes them.
He will exhibit them on the fair cir
cult this fall.
"F. e. Lynn is another Jersey
breeder in the same locality, but
nearer Perrydale. He has beautiful
new house on his 16O-acre farm and is
a breeder of high-class Jerseys. He
has been a breeder for some time, but
last Fall took trip east to purchase
a carload of cattle. After travelling
around a good while and visiting
many herds he finally selected choice
car lot from the herd of Col. Scott of
Scott station, Kentucky, and now has
these on his farm. He has a typical
Jersey bull-Island bred-at the head
of his herd. Mr.. Lynn is very
pleasant man to visit with ahd Is
planning on making the fair circuit
the coming fall. He has some heavy
mixers in his herd but they will
freshen at the wrong time to enter the
milk tests"
