NEWS OF MINES
Continued from page y

In speaking of the Elk City district
r.. Kemp Welch, of Philadelphia, one
of the best known mining and con-
sulting engineers in the country, re-
Gently made the following remarks
when in the city of Spokane enroute
to Elk City where he will inspect the
Idaho Champion property, located
twelve miles from Elk City:
"The Elk City district is high
grade gold quartz country, not low
grade. | emphatically want to deny
the statement that is being generally
circulated that the camp is too low
grade to work without rail transporta-
ton, for from 20 years experience in
mining country, and thorough study
of the Elk district conditions, | know
that the high grade gold quartz is
there in paying quantities, even when
it has to be teamed out
81 know the district thoroughly,
and am sure that it is destined TO be
a coming camp" Mr.. WEIGH contin-
ued. "There is plenty of low grade
ore there, but there is also plenty of
high grade. The miner can work
selectively right now, setting aside
the low grade workings for the day
when the railroad will come. They
call it a rich mans country, but l
know of case after case where prospec-
tors have located their ledge, began
working unsupported and are now
taking out good money. There are
also one or two placer workings that
have paid well.

RURAL SCHOOL BOYS
IN CORN CONTEST
BOYS OF THE RURAL SCHOOLS
IN THIS COUNTY ARE TO
HAVE A CONTEST AT STATE
CORN SHOW.

Along early in the spring Superin-
ltendent Browne, of the rural schools,
for the second time took up his corn
contest among the boys in the rural
schools. Last season the county SUI
perintendent conducted his first corn
contest, and it proved so %usccessful
that he again enlisted the interest
of the boys in this enterprise.
The superintendent got as many
boys as possible to enter the contest,
and seventy of them agreed to fol-
low his directions concerning the
contest. He divided them into two
classes-boys between the ages of IS
and IS years, denoted as Glass A, and
those between s and 12 years denot-
ed as Glass B. The elder boys were
required 20 pant at least one acre Of
corn an dthe younger boys were to
plant at least n quarter of an acre.
The superintendent furnished each
boy in Glass A with eight pounds of
corn for planting and the younger
lads were given a less proportion.
The superintendent has visited
among the boys who have been grow
ing their corn during the season and
he states that they have made a fine
success of the corn growing, and that
it has been beneficial to the boys al
so. One of the lads, Mr.. Browne
said, spread his eight pounds over
more than an acre of ground, but that
he had succeeded in raising eighty
bushels from the planting, which in

contestants to inform them what is

so concerning the contest that will
be decided at the same time for the
prize essays that are to be written
on corn culture. The circular con-
veys the the following information:
