BUYS SEED
Grain HERE
Originator Of Macaroni Wheat Pur.
chases Golden Valley Sssd---Re-
puted Best in the World

VIM. Larsman, who owns and
farms a thousand acres near Valley
City, was in Beach this week and
bought two carloads Of seed wheat,
which he shipped to his home. He
will be back soon for a carload each
Of oats and flax.
Mr.. Larsman was influenced to
come here for seed by Mr.. Miller
of the Russell-Miller Milling Co. +,
who told him that the grain pro-
duced in the Golden Valley was SUI
perior to any on the market-a pref
ty strong recommendation for
Beach and the surrounding coun-
try.
Mr.. Larsman had intended going
to Canada to buy seed, but is now
glad that he saw and talked with
Mr.. Miller, as his visit verified the
latter's claims.
Mr.. Larsman is somewhat known
to fame as the originator of mac
aroni wheat, which came about in
this way: In 1892 he procured
a new variety of seed oats from
a Wisconsin seed company, and in
his oats field he found four heads
of strange looking grain. Being
curious he carefully shelled them
out and sowed the seed the next
year, getting a bushel for his pains.
Next year his yield was 20 bushels.
and the next 400. No one could
identify the new grain. but many
branded it as worthless, not know
ming what it was. The South Da-
kota Agricultural College advised
him to name it as some variety of
wheat, SO he called it "macaroni"
and began to sell it for seed.

Keep the Money at Home

Mr.. I. D. Hughes of Fargo was
in the city Wednesday looking
after business in his line. Mr..
Hughes is the general manager Of
the Pioneer Life Insurance Com
pany of North Dakota. the motto
Of which is, ''Keep North Dakota
Money in North Dakota"
This is something which should
appeal to every person in North
Dakota who is at all interested in
the matter of life insurance, and
every person should be more or
less interested in this subject.
The people Of our fair state are
sending out Of it's borders every
year millions Of dollars for in
surance premiums. This vast
amount Of money can be just as
we'll kept at home to build up our
own state, which is in need Of an
institution capable Of financing
manufacturing enterprises.
Our state pays heavy tribute to
the grain terminals and that. pro.
badly, cannot we'll be avoided, but
we do not have to fill the Golfers
Of foreign insurance companies,
especially when we have home
concern offering equally as good
or even better features for the
same or less money.
The investment feature of life
insurance should be eliminated. as
far as possible. in state like this,
where chances for good investment
are as thick as hair on dog.
The Pioneer is a non-participat-
ing company. which fact enables it
to sell you life insurance at the
lowest possible cost.

SUPERIOR B BOSTON MAKING RAPID
 PROGRESS
Pump Station Stump Now Being Made for New
 Prescott Pumps

Rapid progress is being made at the Superior X Boston mine, in preparation for the extension of development work and production of ore Sinking in the McGaw shaft has been started at the 600-foot level and this will be contin- ued to the eighth level with the least possible delay in operations. The work is now down thirty-fve feet below the station at the sixth level and a pump station stump is being made for the new Prescott pump This pump will have capacity of over one million gallons day. The crosseutting be- tween the McGaw shaft and Great East ern shaft is rapidly nearing completion, less than eight feet of this work still remaining to be done to form tho con nection between the workings from these shafts. Shortly after this has been done the installation of the new pump will begin.
 At the surface, the 200-ton ore bin construction has been begun. The piers for this have already been completed and the timbers for the structure have been framed. The only remaining work to be accomplished is that of securing the timbers in place, which is the small est part of the work required to be done in such an undertaking. This work is expected to be completed during the middle or latter part of this week.
 Although no definite arrangement has yet been made regarding the shipment of ore, it is safe assumption to make that ore from this mine will be shipped before long. The most logical plan would seem to be to ship this ore to the Arizona Commercial shelter for re- duction, but whether this be the plan or not can only be eonjectured, as definite arrangements to this effect have not yet been completed.

assumed a figure which assures the Live Oak of being one of Globe district 's most profitable producers.
 The raise which is being put up from the 300-foot level at the junction of drifts Nos. 306 and 309 measures 69 feet, and the face of it is in chalco- Icite of good commercial grade. Raise No. 30S, running west, is 207 feet long and has been in good sulphide ore all the way. Drift No 309, which is be- ing driven north, measures seventy eight feet and is in commercial chalcocite. Drift No. BIO, running west, is l5S feet in length and has been continuously in ore averaging two and one half per cent or better Drift No. 3ll has been driven sixty-three feet through low grace ore of excellent commercial value Drift No. 3l2, which leaves Drift No. 306 directly opposite from drift No. 30S, is seventeen feet long and has been in chalcocite of commercial grade for its entire length. The advance work dur ing the past week has been in ore aver aging about three per cent.
 From the above measurements it can be readily seen that the proven ore body at the Live Oak mine is assuming great proportions. The management is push ing forward the work of development with all possible speed, and is natural. ly very much gratified with the results obtained during the past year. The work of the churn drills which are expected to arrive on the ground about February 1 should greatly facilitate the under ground developments by indicating the general position of the sulphide ore body.
 General Manager M. F. Mccarthy of the Live Oak Development company, has about thirty men employed at the mine under the direction of Superinten, dent Ball and Mir. Maybush, the mine foreman.

TUNNELS IN LEDGE
 IF YUMA VEIN
Encouraging Prospects in Work Being Prosecuted
 on Mineral Farm

The work on the Mineral Farm group of claims is being continued with a small force of men, with encouraging developments. The tunnel work has entered the ledge matter of the Yuma vein, and although very little copper naturalization has been encountered, the high iron content is considered a fav- orable indication, when the general character of the rock is compared with that of the ledge near the surface.
 A 2SfOOt shaft was sunk on this ledge some time ago, as prospect shaft. This shaft opened a small body of cop. per ore and the assumption was that an additional depth of 250 feet, gained by driving tunnel, would open a commercial ore body and give over 300 feet of stoping ground, extending along the strike of the vein and connecting with the shaft over 200 feet above. w. F. Carter has lease on this part of the Globe Mining company's property The west crOsscut from the shaft far ther north should break into the vein in the course of few more feet of driving. This vein, should it prove to be of value as a copper lode, will be explored at depth of 60O v # below the present work. This will necessi- tate the resumption of the shaft sink ing. The hOisting machinery and air compressor already in use at this shaft would make this sinking a matter of only about two months work, with a full force of men. $. NJ.

 Bosch and Taught in From Camp

According to the surface indications on the Tonto River Copper company s property, the tunnel now being driven shoald cut nine lodes within a total distance of 4,200 feet The tunnel lev el is about twentyseven feet above the level of the river.
 The property of the Tonto River Cop per company consists of thirty.eight claims One of the preliminary surveys made by Senator w. A. Clark interests for railrOad from the Salt Lake Los Angeles line to Globe, passes through the cenetr of the eompany's holdings. second survey has been made one and one-half miles west of the first survey. The latter crosses the Sierra Anchas mountains by one per cent grade. The second survey has three per cent grade.
 Secretary James Murtha, of the Ton to River Copper company, who visited the Globe and Payson districts several months ago, is now at his home in Pitts burg, Pa. Mir. Murtha has recently made known the company's intention Cf continuing development work on the eompany's property indefinitely. The earnest manner in which operations are being advanced on the Tonto River property is decidedly creditable to the company s management and should ui timately be richly rewarded.
 J. P. Bosch, in addition to superin- tending the development work of the Tonto River Copper company, has a force of men at work on some mineral land belonging to him in Hog canyon, about ten miles north of the TontO Riv- CT camp. This property includes seven claims and is being prospected for gold, with encouraging results. A shaft be ing sunk there now to a depth of fifty feet has encountered three veins con. taining in aggregate thirty-eight inches of gold ore, average assays of which run about eight ounces to the ton. Foi the first ten feet of sinking, the samples assayed gave returns of S5.40 to the ton in gold, but the values have in. | creased with greater depth.
 The ledge on which the shaft is be ing sunk is exposed on the surface fol distance of l,s00 feet. Specimens broken from the surface croppings run bNtI SDsVV lu iht tou III GOius lhs Ii'P erty on which the above results have been obtained is located about twelve miles south of PaysOn, and is said by men familiar with the district, to bC fairly illustrative of the gold deposits of the Payson district.
 MT. Bosch reports some very vigorous weather in the Payson country during the past six weeks. There have been three heavy snowstorms. During tho second one, which took place about De eember 15, eighteen inches of snow fell and the mercury sank to four de grees below zerj in the vicinity ot | PaysOn.
 Mr. Bosch left Globe yesterday en route for the property of the TontC River Copper company. With him h' took materials for building the new bridge on which work will be com menced within a few days.

While the rapid developments in the properties of Globe district are the cynoSure of attention among the people of southern Gila county, the mining in' dustry in progress in the northern part of the country, better known as the Payson country, generally fail of re- ceiving the share of notice which the results in that region justify.
 Among the men whose efforts have been effectively directed toward awak. ening the public to realization of what the PaysOn mining district has in store for the future are the officers of the Tonto River Copper company, whose property is located about fOrty-one miles north of Roosevelt on the Tonto river and at the foot of the Sierra Anchas mountains.
 J. P. Bosch, a well known resident of Globe, and Mir. Taught, also known locally as an experienced mining man, returned Wednesday from several weeks stay at the cOmpany's camp, where they have been directing opera tions on the property with view to proving it up as mine capable of prof itable production.
 The camp of the TontO River Copper company is situated on the northwest bank of the Tonto river. The main workings of the company's property are on the opposite side of the stream Some temporary foot bridges afford the men employed there means of cross ing. MT. Bosch is now securing mater. ials for the construction of substan. tial suspension bridge, which will be swung across the river at height ot fifty-five feet above the water. The gorge through which the river flows in that place is very narrow, so that m time of high water resultant from the heavy rains common in that region the present foot bridges are immersed in water and impossible. The proposed height of the new bridge will etfec tually solve the question of providing suitable means of passing to and fro between the property workings and tho camp.
 MT. Bosch reports that the results from the development work on the Ton to mineral land have been most favor able during the past few weeks. He brought to Globe with hlm a humDer Ol , handsome specimens of ore running higt in copper.
