and sons have just shipped a half-cariOad
of honey to Canada. Mr.. BeIliston in
formed the Times reporter that he and
his sons have gathered 5000 pounds OF
comb honey from their colonies this sea-
son. As the comb honey brings from 8
to 10 cents per pound, and the extracted
honey about cents, it is readily seen
that this industry is very profitable.

Box Elder Journal: The first carload
of graphite was shipped from the mines
at Three-Miie creek last Saturday. This
shipment went to Salt Lake City and will
be pulverized in a mill in that city and
also used in Utah. Samples sent east
have brought orders to the company be-

is believed that the ledge dips deep into
the mountain.
The first shipment is now made and,
since the United States cannot supply
more than half of the amount used it
will be an easy matter to find a good
market.
Eastern capitalists have asked for an
option on all surplus stock, but the COM
pany prefers rather to have western cap
ital in the property, so has made no agree
ments with eastern men. Twenty thou
sand dollars worth of stock will be sold
to build mill.
