Crais Co4Rty's Corn Yield
Will be 2,9S6, $40 Bushels

for winter feeding on account OF the
corn crop being almost failure IN
some sections. The big kafiir corr
grain yield made this year when corn
in the same localities was hardly
worth harvesting demonstrates very
forcibly that farmers in southwestern
and western Oklahoma would make q
surer and as good feeding crop as
corn by raising kafir corn and milo
maize.
The kaffir corn forage crop averaged
30 tons per acre as compared with 1.2
tons per acre for the 1903 crop. The
estimated number Of tons of forage
raised this season is given at 1,lsO,Sss
tons as compared with 225,5S2 tons
for last years crop.
The estimated acreage of kafiir corn
raised this year is 49s,7S7 as compared
with 4S2.214 acres raised last year.
A Big Irish Potato Crop.
The statistics taken on the Irish po-
tato crop show as flattering a yield
as on the other Oklahoma crops this
year, and shows that the farmer is
prepared to meet the increased cost
of living expenses by raising his own
food. The estimated yield per acre is
76.4 bushels, as compared with 54.2
bushels for the 1909 crop. The esti-
mated yield this season is 1,73O,S95
bushels, as compared with 1.11S,57S
bushels raised last year. The acreage
this year Is an increase of Is per cent
over that planted in 1909.

STRIKERS LEAVE
STRIKE FAILS

The Tonopah Sun says: Since the
railroad strike was declared IN Tonopah
two weeks ago today over half of the
twenty-three men who went out have
left town. And, as one prominent
among them remarked this morning,
those remaining here will leave some
time this week. They are looking for
work on other lines in the west.
One of the strikers was asked what
difference their going on a strike
would make in the matter of their
getting a clearance from this road.
He replied that, inasmuch as the boys
who struck here had simply quit
their jobs on a question of wages, and
due notice to the company, there
should be no reason why they should
not get a clearance.

new STRIKES MADE in
GOLD CIRCLE DIST.

New strikes similar to those which
first attracted attention to the Gold
Circle district have been made IN the
Sleeping Beauty Hill claim of the
Sleeping Beauty group and the Poorman
lease on the Queen group, says the Hum
boldt Star. In the Beauty Hill group
has been encountered an 1s-inch lead,
it is said, which runs about $50 q ton,
while in the Poorman lease is a streak
of from one inch to four inches of ore,
which gives values of $4,000 a ton.
Operations in Gold Circle, as IN many
mining camps, have been retard.
ed by the unusual severity of The win
ter, but the operators who have re-
with the camp have done good
work, and now that spring is opening
it is promised that several mills OF the
district will be kept busy grinding OUT
gold.

FOR LOST
Mine near LUNDY

ELY, New, April 20.-After spending
a week in the vicinity Of Lundy search
ing for a long lost mine, that was sup
posed to have been located in 1860,
William Roberts, Joseph Gilbert and
Frank Rogers have returned to Ely
without discovering the supposed bo-
nanza of the early days.
Tradition states that an aged man
travelling to California in the early
sixties found some rich gold ore about
five miles south of Lundy, and expect
cd to return to Nevada to develop the
mine after he had completed his jour
ney to the coast. He died shortly
after his arrival in California, but left
explicit instructions as to where his
rich gold mine was situated.
Roberts and his associates although
they traversed many miles of country
near Lundy, were not able to get any
trace of mineral through the country
which they examined.

INGALLS, BANKS
ON RAMONA

Former Sheriff w. A. Ingalls, has re
turned from a trip into the Lucky Boy
district and also a visit to the new
camp of Ramona, situated sbout eight
miles southwest of Lucky Boy. He
is quite enthusiastic regarding Ramona
and predicts for it a bright future.
To back up his statements and pre-
dictions he has q banning made from
rock taken from one of the several ex-
ceedingly rich but small stringers en-
eountered in the 20-foot vein which has
been opened up at 40 feet on the prop
erty now under lease and bond to Nit
chell and Fairfield. Much free, coarse
gold is in the panning and is pure
enough to go between $1s and $40 to
the ounce. The big vein of ore is as
yet low grade but The presence of the
rich stringers has brought forth rosy
predictions as to what will be mount
cred at great depth.
Mr.. Ingalls, states that the formation
resembles in a measure that of the
Goldfeld district in the early days.

NEVADA RAILROADS
GETTING INTO SHAPE

1t is reported that General Manager
Wells of the Los Angeles, Salt Lake,
and San Pedro railroad. after having
inspected the washouts of the West
ern Pacific and Southern Pacific
roads. declared that he wished his own
line had not been injured any worse.
The Western Pacific has completed
repairing its roadbed between Pallsade
and Beowawe, Nevada, and all traces
of the damage by the floods have been
eradicated. Within a few weeks the
new line will use it's own tracks be-
tween Elko and Winnemucca. Since
April 1st they have been using the
Southern Pacific tracks.
1t is expected that the Western
Pacific wrecking train is already at
work, pulling the locomotive and two
cars from the river where they were
wrecked about a month ago. The
water has continued so high that no
efforts have been made so far to extri-
cate the rolling stock.

MIRACULOUS ESCAPE OF
AUTO PARTY

RENO, April 21.-News has just
reached this city of a remarkable acct
dent near Lovelock on Monday after
noon, when a locomotive struck an
automobile on a railroad bridge and
smashed the car, without harming the
occupants. The dismantled machine
was sold to a nearby resident, and the
party proceeded in the same train that
ran them down.
Three tourists occupied the machine
and the party was headed for New
York City, from Los Angeles. A recent
food washed away the wagon bridge
over the Humboldt river near a station
called Kodak, and since then, the rail-
road bridge has been used by vehicles
and pedestrians, with the consent of
the company, it is said.
Eye witnesses of the crash declare
that the engineer had ample time to
stop his train, but that he made no
effort to save the automobile. The ma
chine was thrown several feet and
partly demolished. None of the party
was seriously hurt. A sheepherder, who
lived near by went to the motorists
assistance, and as he seemed interested
in the machine, the owner offered it to
him for practically nothing. The sheep
man accepted and the party boarded
the train and proceeded.

FRACTION Continues
ITS fine SHOWING

With it's new 100-h. p. electric hoist
in operation, development work on the
Combination Fraction is much acceler-
ated, and there is every reason to be-
lieve that the mine will be a heavy
producer by the time summer has ar
rived. Development work ON the 500
foot and 2S5-foot levels continues to
meet with fattering results, and a long
stope is being opened up on the 500
foot level, and everything put in readi-
hess for ore extraction a little later.
Manager Wilkerson intends to have
sufficient ore reserves in sight for a
long run when he begins extracting ore.
AS was done last year, the company
will probably again operate the cotton
iujll of the Nevada Goldfield Reduction
company under lease, and thus be able
to take out both low grade and high
grade ores, whereas if it had to ship,
nothing but comparatively rich ore
could be extracted. Mr.. Wilkerson is a
working manager, and his energy and
knowledge of the Golofeld formations
and of the development in the various
underground workings of the surround
ing properties make him a valuable as
set to the Fraction, which looks better
now than for nearly a year past.

EAGLES HAS
A Big BODY OF ORE

From Fairview comes news of what
promises to make of that place one of
the leading bullion producing mining
districts of the state, says the Wonder
news. 1t is said that on the300-foot
level of the Fairview Eagle a body of
hne ore has been encountered, whose
extent has not yet been determined. A
erosscut has been run for over forty
feet, our informant says, and the face
is still in ore.
George Wingfeld, the principal
owner, accompanied by several mining
men, visited the property a few DAYS
ago, and on his return to Reno lost no
time in calling a meeting of the com
pany. 1t is said that the purpose of the
meeting is to make arrangements for
the immediate erection of a mill for
the reduction of this ore.
With the mine furnishing an abund-
ance of water, and with power to be
lad cheap from the Wonder electric
about to be built, the principal OBJ
'tructions to successful milling oper-
ltions in Fairview are already disposed
#, so that If the Eagle people are in
and Wingfield usually is, the
amp across the valley bids fair to be

RUSHING WORK in
REBUILDING
|. Y. & I.

Senator W. A. Clark, president of
the Salt Lake railroad, has ordered the
doubling up of the crews now building
tho Meadow Wash and Clover Valley
wasbouts. Four corps of engineers
have been dispatched to the field to
survey and locate the right of way for
the proposed "high line" President
Clark has also ordered the road bed of
the Salt Lake reballasted for it's entire
length, 1850 miles.
Before his departure from Los An
Giles he said:
propose to make the road bed of
the Salt Lake equal to, if not superior,
of any railroad in the United States.'
The Clover Valley and Meadow Val
ley Wash washouts are to be repaired
and the track opened for through traf-
fc July /. By that time the engineers
have completed the survey for the
"high line" which is to be built from
thirty to sixty feet higher than the
ninety-three miles of track affected by
the disaster of January !. Late in De-
cember there was an eighteen inch fall
of snow followed by heavy rains. This
caused floods and resulted in the
wrecking of the track from Acoma to
Rox, a distance of ninety-three miles.
Not all of the track was washed out
and the steel bridges escaped injury,
but the line was put put of service for
about 100 miles.
Work was begun at once repairing
the damage, which, it is said, will cost
in the neighborhood of $4,000, 900. Last
week 125 teams were at work at
either end of the washed out section
grading for the track to be rebuilt.
Now 400 teams are at work. The work
is to be continued night and day until
the damage is repaired and the ROAD
opened for traffic.
While the road has been out of ser
vice because of the washout the cars
and engines have been thoroughly
o%verhauled.
The work of repairing the washed
out track has progressed to the extent
that twenty-three of the ninety-three
miles have been restored.
Naturally we were disheartened
over the disaster" said All official OF
the Salt Lake road. "The most con
sentative estimate Of our actual loss,
including the loss in business based on
the amount of traffic handled at the
time of the washout, was not less than
$4,000, 900. But President Clark sent
out the message to repair the road as
quickly as possible. Announcement OF
the building of the "high line to IN
sure against the repetition OF the DIS
aster followed. And now comes the
determination to reballast the entire
system and put it in first class condi-
tion."
