 gon.

Seldom a day now passes that the report is not given out that new mine is to open, or work resumed in some well known property. In all parts of Baker county the mining out look is very bright and the most pros porous year in the history of the in- dustry Is anticipated.
 The Sumpter district is now the liveliest that it has been in many years and several of the small prop critics that have been idle or doing very little are now employing large crews and will ship ore to the smel- ter. Many owners who could not af- ford 10 ship to Tacoma or other smel- ters can now work their properties and get immediate returns on their shipments.
 That the North Pole mine will be running again before the close of an other year is the statement Of men who are in a position to know what Is going on. Whether or not the North Pole and E. x E. will be consolidat d Is very doubtful, but the North Pole is too rich 10 remain idle very long. Encouraging reports are received from the Climax. Rel Boy and other producers.
 While the activity on the Snake river is not so great as might be de- sired, yet there is enoug gh develop ment and exploration work going on to gi:s ample a,,urlnce that the country has a g.'eaC future.

Churn Drills On the Planet.

The old Planet mine is making good. According to the predictions of Dr. Harvey Weed, the eminent geolo- gist and mining expert, a large boiy of ore has been encountered in pros pecting with churn drills on this re markable producer of early days.
 Years ago this mine was made fa- nous by the thousands of tons of high grade copper ore that was taken by primitive methods from the surface workings and shipTe1 tJ Swansea, Wales. for treatment.
 The early work, however, was a mere scratching of the surface, no at tempt being made to prospect the ground below the l0O-foot level. The Lewlssohns of New York, who about a year ago bought the holdings of the old Planet company. have been contin- uously working large force of men with the result that a double compart- ment vertical shaft is now down over 600 feet, from which over l,0JJ feet of drifting has been accomplished. Large bodies of ore have been blocked out in these workings.
 Further explanatory work has been carried on b. cnurn drills with most satisfactory results. The holes al- ready put down show the ore body to be of great extent and of good grade.
 It is reported that work on the spur from the A. x C. railroad. to Planet will start early this fall, and that a big shelter will take the place of the old 30-ton water jacket at the mine.- ParNer Post.

 The Cincinnati vein owned by the Golden Gross x Eagl company, Is tho largest producer, and IS said to have yielded lOO,OJO5. Other veins of the same class are the Yellow Jacket and the Hancock The latter, owned by c. E. Burdick of DenIug. The shaft on this vein is ID feet deep and some 1000 tons of ore rich in lead and some gold were shipped from it.
 At the northern base of the noun tains are the zinc mines in the lime stones. These were originally work ed for the lead. To l9l4 it was found that there were large deposits of zinc carbonates, and Frank Thurmond and Lindauer of Deming worked the mines and shipped a number of carloads to the Kansas zinc smelters. The mines have reverted to Col Fitch, formerly of Socorro, and his sons.-El Paso Herald.

Copper SmeIter to Close.

A Bedding. Cal. special to the Den yer Mining Record says: The Forest Service bureau has refused 10 cancel its complaint against the Bully Hill Copper company and the latter has tacitly declined to install a fume-con- trolling device. This Is considered 10 mean that the big plant at Delamar will cease operations after July, as the injunction secured ny the national Forest Service again-t the company gives the management only until the early part of July to adopt provisions f1r the suppression Of the fumes.
 The Forest Service declares that the fumes are working great damage to trees in the national forest. although the site of the plant was especially chosen to ohviate all damage 10 vege- tation. This k the first complaint made against the company. and the latter does not care to incur the Cx- penSe of installing costly smoke cun- sumers. ODeratiunS at the mine will continue along the usual lines. the production being handled al the Bal akiall shelter. according 10 present advice>.

The latter corporation is build ing a dam across the river at Mag dalia flat in order to secure power for the opr ation of it's mine at Maydalia. The reservoir will hold about 2.30O. .OOO gallons of water and is located about a mile above the intake of the Orc ditch.

thirty feet wide. In Spring Gulch the greatest center of geological distur- bance, there Is in evidence broken mass of schist carrying much pyriJe, which in shallow workings is shown to be in the process of changing into a chalcocite, thus throwing much light on the probable formation and making it reasonable 10 believe in the pres ence of a large acreage of disseminat- ed ore or commercial value. This be- lief is supported by the opinions of some of the best known engineers in the southwest.
 The present mining equipment on the Cole property includes, besides the usual complement of tools necessary in development. 22-horsepower gasoline hoisl. well constructed head frame. suitah fIr use in sinking to an in- clincd depth of LOGO feet. A camp for the accommodation of employees is situated in the gulch below the shaft.
 The acquisition of the Cole Develop ment company's seventeen claims, taken in connection with its three claims in Miami district, gives the Little Miami Copper company twenty claims, aggregating about 4OO acres of mineral land, which should prove pro- ductive of both high and low grade ores, a decidedly happy combination. In making its new transaction the Little Miami company will not in crease its capitalization, will issue no bonds, and after taking over the prop erty will have 200, ,OOO shares of stock left in its treasury. The Little Miami people thus apparently have an unin- iated operative company unburdened with over capitalization, and possess ing practical and conservative man. aTement.
 In such hands the seventeen claims which J. P. Cole. one of the pioneer mining men of the southwest, has worked so arduously to develop. should in course of time become one of Globe districts greatest assets as copper mining region.

To Build Tungsten Mill at osoeols.

A Salt Lake City dispatch says: A large concentrating plant, equipped with machinery and devices for treat ing ores containing tungstic acid, is to be constructed at once at the proper ties of the Huebernite Tungsten con- pany, l2 miles south of Osceola, Nev. The company is controlled by E. A. Turner. It is the intention to start construction work at once, and an ef- fort will be made to have the plant in operation by November.
 The tungsten properties were pur- chased by Mir. Turner last August from James II. Marriott, Osceola min ing man and merchant. and consistent development work has been in pro gress since that time. Forty men have been kept at work, with the re- suit that a large tonnage of ore has been blocked out.
 The crude ore contains high per centage of huebernite, but on account of the long distance to market it is necessary that the ore be concentrated on the ground. small homemade concentration constructed several years ago by the former owner of the prop critics produced 70 per cent cOncen- trates, which was shipped to Pennsyl- vania at a profit.

for equipment and 6l,OOJs for develop ment purposes.
 While in San Francisco last week, in company with Com. J. M. Foote, the UnIon Iron Works of that city was commissioned to prepare plans and specifications for a 2O-stamp mill, and while in Los Angeles an order was placed for double-opposed engine of 250 horsepower.
 Mir. Hurt is particularly enthusiastic over the new power plant, claiming that the new system will revolutiOnize desert mining. The Western people have demonstrated with several plants that 90-h. D. engine can be operated at a cost of but b cents an hour. Crude oil, costing two cents a gallon, is used as fuel. From the crude oil gas Is generated, and at the Western shops the residue is sold for more than the cost of the original oil.
 The monster engine will be used to generate electric pJ yer, winch will be used in every department. Also, a wire will be strung to the company's Daylight group, mile and quarter distant. This property, which adjoins the QIartette's Boston group, will be equipped with a hoist and compressor, and double-cJmpIrtnent vertical shaft will be sunk.
 Following Mr. Hurts return a crew has been at work Id the main shaft above the 2JJ-ft level. The timbering is being carefully gone over. In places it Is being strengthened, in others entirely replaced, and through out fully la Eged and placed in the best of condition.
 Immediately the shaft has been com pleIed contract Is to be let calling for 200 feet of sinGlng, or to the 800 level. Flst progress should be made in this work, as the company will fur nIsh everything needed, including power drills.
 
 the present showing, but judging from the marked improvement of the third level over the second and the conduct of veins throughout the district, the management looks forward to even larger results on the succeeding levels.
 On the 20J the vein measured l6 feet between Salls-the values were only nominal, but on the third it increased to 2l feet and the values improved cor respondingly. In speaking of values is meant the general average of the whole, but within the giant ledge are portions of which yield the picture card variety. As for example: We'd nesday the Bulletin man saw a pan ming made of very small piece of ore, which one of the miners had brought up from the bottom level, and which looked to be worth at least 300S ton.
 To assist in the installation and later to have charge of the new plant, Mr. Hurt has been fortunate in secur- ing the services of MT. Eugene O'Neill, who was for eight years in the government navy yard at Wash ingtun and afterwards was for a like period foreman of the Southern Pacific railroad shops at New Orleans. He is a master mechanic of unusual ex- perience and ability.-Searchlig Bulletin.

Sd la Marie Mill Soon to Operate.

Within the next few days the Splen- did mill of the Santa Marie mines will be operating. and the beginning of what k believed to be another heavy gold producer is generally the belief expressed.

morally wholesome and this can only
come through right living, not only in
the spiritual sense, but also in the ma :
terial or physical. The nineteenth
century gave the gift of equal edu-
cational opportunities to both men and
women. 1t remains for the twentieth
century to show that equal opportun-
ity does not mean exactly the same
subject pursued in precisely the same
way What domestic science means
to do Is to give the girl what the
schools have already given the boy,
proper, ample classified courses in
those subjects which pertain directly
to her business in life
The schools are not the only agents
for the furthering of the cause OF
home economics. The Lake Placid
conference which held it's first meet
ing at Lake Placid club, Sept, 1899,
has been one important factor. AS an
outcome OF the conference the Amer
ic9n Home Economics association was
organized in 1908. Mrs Ellen H
Richards is the president, and it num-
bers among the members the most
prominent and efficient educators of
the day
Women's clubs all over the coun-
try are active in furthering the work
Often they are the most active agen-
cies In arousing interest in domes-
tic science. In many cities the equip
ment OF a laboratory for teaching do
nestle science has been given by the
women on the condition that the board
of education hire teacher. Once
started the teaching of domestic sci
ence is bound to succeed. New labor
atories are equipped more pupils ac-
commodated.
A recent magazine writer says "All
are not agreed that the home is in
immediate danger Of disintegration. So
long as there is mother love, father
tenderness, and helpless infancy so
long there will be homes. But there
should be fewer sick and dying bab-
ies fewer marred and injured ones;
fewer women breaking down; fewer
stunted lives; less nervousness; less
contagious disease; less domestic
trouble: less unhappiness in them.
There should be higher ideas and ideals
Of living, of personal responsibility
There should be more sweetness and
light, more health, more happiness,
and more beauty. To give these is
what domestic science means to do.
For its conscious aim is right living"
