roNoPAH WEEKLY BONANZA


production of silver from siicious ores has undoubtedly increased
considerably.
Many OF the boom camps never reached a stage of develop
ment in their mines where any considerable production was made.
When their mining stock became unsaleabe these camps became stag
nant and their development ceased for the time. But in better de-
veloped districts, where the mines were productive, and their OPP
erations did not depend upon sales of the shares of the companies
there has been the usual activity. A notable feature has been the
installation of numerous mills by prosperous companies, which
thereupon ceased shipping to smelters This change has permitted
the utilization of large quantities of ore which would not bear both
freight and smelter charges, and has resulted also in the adoption
of better systems of mining than those employed whea rich ore only
was hotsted. In the prominent mines there are fewer leases than
formerly, the companies working the properties on their own ac-
counts.
AT Goldheld much development work was done and a large pro-
duction maintained, chiefly by two companies. The output probably
did not exceed that of 1907. At Tonopah the usual activity pre-
vailed, and Silver Peak began production. Much development and
some production is reported from Phoebe. Shipments of gold ores
began from Rawhide and of silver ores from the Hornsiver camp,
both in Esmeralda county. Development work continued in the Ma
sonic valley copper district, near Yerington. Production of copper
on a large scale was begun at Ely.
The mining industry in Nevada is really in much better condition
at the end of 1908 than in 1907, notwithstanding the fact that a
number of camps have been virtually idle.
The output of gold in Nevada was $1,000 1S, against s15,-
4l1IOOO in 1907, and the production of silver was 9322,S2S fine
ounces, against S,2SO,500 in 1907"

Reese River is
Coming District

There is a renewal of interest in
the Reese River district with the be-
ginning of the year and the advent
of better times. At the first OF the
year the Arson Nevada Cold Mining
corporation, which owns one of the
most valuable properties In the dis
trict, consolidated with another i'm
portant company whose property adj
Joined that of the Arson Nevada, the
consolidation makes one of the
strongest concerns in the state. The
Arson Nevada Gold Mining corpora
ton, whose claims are at the -four
ishing camp of Bonita, is one of the
few companies that has a woman for
president. Under the presidency OF
Mrs. Gerta j. Sutherland it has made
an excellent record and, with its in
creased strength, 1t promises still
better results. Up to the first OF the
year 1t was practically a close cor
poration. But its stock will now be
put upon the market and the process
will be devoted to the development
of the large acreage of the company
upon a comprehensive plan. The
company has just opened Offices in
New York, where the president will
be in personal charge. The opera
tions at the mine will be superin-
tended by George A. Richardson,
one of the ablest and most exper-
fenced miners in the state and wide
ly and favorably known. The COM
pany has as directors such we'll
known men as Judge Il. p. Ryan, a
noted New York lawyer; w. A. Linn
baugh. of the San Francisco custom
house; s. +. Sutherland of the New
York Sun, and C. Arson Barker, the
Nevada mining expert, who is gem
eral manager and who is now in San
Francisco, to get new material for
the mines.

THE MINERAL OUTPUT.

Nevadans are always interested in anything which pertains to
mining, hence the following findings of the national conservation
commission will be of more than ordinary interest:
THE mineral production Of the United States for 1907 exceeded
S2000000,00O, and contributed SIS per cent of the total freight
traffic of the country The waste in the extraction and treatment Of
mineral products during the same year was equivalent to more than
s3O0,o 100000
The production for 1907 included 395, 100000 tons of bHumi-
nous and S5,000,000 tons of anthracite coal, 1866, 100000 barrels of
petroleum, 4o,000,OO0 tons of high grade and 100000 tons Of
low grade iron ore, 100000 tons of phosphate rock, and $4,000
600 pounds of copper. The values of other mineral products during
the same year included clay products, 1852 900 600; stone, $1,000
600; cement, $4,000 ,O0O; natural gas, $780, 10000. gold. 100000
600; silver. SS7,000000; lead, $39,00O,O0O, and zinc, $685. 600, 900.
The available and easily accessible supplies of coal in the
United States aggregate approximately 1 ,40O, 600, 0 10000 tons. AT
the present increasing rate OF production this supply will be 81 de-
peted as 10 approach exhaustion before the middle of the next cen
fury.
THE known supply OF high grade iron ores in the United States
approximates 3,S40,0O00 900 tons, which at the present increasing
rate of consumption can not be expected to last beyond the middle
OF the present century. In addition to this, there are assumed to be
$4,000 100000 tons of lower grade iron ore which are not avail
able for use under existing conditions.
The supply of stone, clay, ceement, lime, sand, and salt is
ample. while the stock Of the precious metals and of copper, lead,
zinc, sulphur. asphalt. graphite, quicksilver, mica, and the are
metals can not well be estimated, but is clearly exhaustible within
one to three centuries unless unexpected deposits be found.
The known supply of petroleum is estimated at $4,000 600 to
10000, 100000 barrels, distributed through six separate fields hav-
ing an aggregate area of 8g9 900 square miles. The production is rap
idly increasing, while the wastes and the loss through misuse are
enormous. The supply can not be expected to last beyond the
middle of the present century.
THE known natural gas fields aggregate a area q eooo onars

prise, and we print this story. with
picture of the new building be-
cause it and the business are Of more
than usual interest
The Bookstore Building, a build
ing of stores, is the elimination of
over fifteen years of the kind Of
growth that comes with persistent,
intelligent application. Mr.. John
son spent his bOyhood days on farm
in the old town of Hadley, and began
his business life in Northampton,
here he spent few years in Bridg
mans college Bookstore. A" Then
in Springfield he gave few years to
James D. Gill as a clerk, and after
that branohed out for himself. His
store was small, but the vigor was
4here, and this fine business home
tells how strongly the idea has giown
and how much the people have apGre-
dated it.
The original and handsome fSont
of the new building was designed by
E. j. Parlett, of the firm of Kirkham
& Parlett, and is done in rich, low
toned, red fire brick, with cream
terra Gotta trimmings. 1t tells its
own story, of generous lines, floods
of daylight and sunshine, and good,

ing Is outside, that it is inside: wide,
high, hospitable and cheerful. The
vestibule of marble and mosaic, with
it's convenient elevator, is a "glad

it, and are pleased. The corridors
are wide, very wide. and it is wise

display goods as though they were

finely lighted, and a place where you
linRer for the very love of it.
Broad, handsome stairs lead to the
mezzanine floor in the rear to the
main store The bookkeepers and
stenographers, with Mr.. johnson s
private office, are located here, and
you get fine view from here of the
street floor, where the books stretch
away on endless shelves, counters and
tables, with companionable charm
which is irresistible. Stationery,
Office fixtures and supplies, blank
books, post cards, fountain pens,
cameras and all the other kindred de.
partments, have ample room.
There are three ways of getting to
the big basement, broad stairs at the
rear, an easy flight in the center of
the store and the elevator. If you
don't take your children or some
other children to the basement, you
miss the time of your life. There
are dozens of tables of children's
books. toys and novelties. The new
circulating library which has come
into such immediate favor is here,
and altogether, with it's games of all
kinds for adults favors, crepe paper
novelties and decorations, this is a
rare place.
The equipment of the store for
handling is business is complete. The
passenger elevator reaches all floors,
there is Lamson cash carrier of over
forty stations, and a private telephone
system with over a dozen stations, it's
own switchboard and operator A
sidewalk freight elevator reaches the
stock and shipping rooms in the base
ment, and stock lift runs from the
basement to the floors above. Add
ing and billing machines and other
modern devices assist the bookkeepers
in their work. An abundance of
daylight reaches the store from the
front, rear and north sides, and
through five large Ekylights The
whole store shows experience and
wise planning. It meets your needs
on many sides. and you never fail to
find it freshly attractive and useful.
1t is a large and valuable addition to
the life of New England.
