Agent Of Colorado Agriculturists Will
Exhibit Its Advantages at Land

II. T. Proctor Of the wilson Proctor
company of Weld county. Colorado, was

wonderful results OF subirrigation MT.
Proctor was on his way TO Chicago to put
On an exhibit AZ a land products show

At the forthcoming Land Products show in
omaha.
The Wilson-Proctor company owns about
10000 acres OF subirrigated soil which is
under the operation OF thirty subiirigation
plants.
Mr.. Proctor explained the points Of sub
irrigation, az follows;
Better and surer than flood water or
storage reservoir for irrigation is the I'M

great inexhaustible supply or water under
thousands OF acres of land in the Grow

EDUCATION NATIONAL FUNCTION
University President CritieiSes Pres
ent Methods.


DenounCinE the condition OF American
education as a national reproaeh, President
L, J. James of the University OF Illinois
startled the members OF the Minnesota
Teachers association in session in Sc. Paul
last Thursday.
In no civilized country" declared the
Illinois educator, with emphasis ARE the
teachers In the rural districts OF the ma
ton a whole, and for that matter IN
many villages and towns, so unframed
and unslilled, with SO little experience or
fitness for the work as is the case in the
United States OF America"
And President James has a remedy. II
Is to make education a national function,
with a secretary OF education a. a member
Of the cabinet and with vast federal appro-
priauons Of money
As TO the Importance OF education Pres
/ ident James said:
| "Of all republics the United States Is most
| interested Ia maintaining a vital and eff
Client educational system. No other country
Is receiving 50 many ignorant people from
90 many different nations with such vary
ing standards OF religion, morals and con-
duct. No other country Is finding the
/ fundamental basis OF national unity so per
! sistently undermined by foreign currents
OF thought and feeling.
THE fate OF the nation is consequently
{ bound up with the assimilation OF thos,
| elements as soon as possible"
With sarcasm President James exclaimed
we pride ourselves on being a peaceful
nation and yet We are spending more upoI
military defense ana offense than upon al
other objects and for all other purposes
whatsoever.
And yet We are doing little as a natOl
20 conserve the greatest OF our nationa

MINES BUREAU
ACT IN FORCE
WHEN INCREASED APPROPRIA-
TIONS ARE MADE MINING AND
MITALLURGICAL PROBLEMS
WILL BE TAKEN UP.

The act establishing a bureau of
mines in the department OF the IN
terror, approved May 16, 1910, be-
came effective July /. AS originally
approved, the law contemplated the
transfer of the entire tenchnologic
branch of the United States geologi-
cal survey, the mine accident investi-
cations, fuel Investigations, structur-
al materials Investigations, the entire
personnel, property and equipment,
to the bureau of mines, but the sun
dry civil appropriation act approved
June 25, amended the law to such an
extent that the structural materials
Investigations, including the person.
mel and equipment for these investi-
cations went to the bureau OF stan
dards. department of commerce and
labor.
Carrying out the spirit and intent
of the law so amended, the secretary
has transferred to the bureau OF
mines the investigation of mine ae-
cidents and fuels, Together with the
personnel and equipment of these in
vestigations and has transferred TO
the bureau of standards the stfuc-
tural materials Investigations and thu
employees of the ~technologie branth
of the survey engaged in these in
v~estigations. The fully equipped test
ing station at Pittsburg also goes to
the bureau of mines.
The bureau of mines therefore in

alton of $4,000 was made by IN

LOCAL PROPERTY
To Be DEVELOPED
NEvADADELKER COMPANY IN
CORPORATED TO PROSECUTE
WORK ON GROUP OF COPPER
CLAIMS NEAR CURRIE.

For the past fifteen or twenty years
cowboys and ranches have in a hap
hazard way been doing assessment
, work from year to year on a great
~outeropping copper vein in Delker
mining district, White Pine county,
twenty miles west of Currie on the
Nevada Northern railroad, but a few
days ago a strong company, which
has taken over a territory of 400
acres, covering twenty-three full
claims, was organized; a gasoline
hoist purchased and preparations
have been completed for sinking a
400-foot shaft to the s%ulphides. wlith
experts who have examined the prop
erty estimate should be reached be
tween 800 and 400 feet.
The new corporation is the Ne
vada-Delker Mining company, incor-
porated under the laws of Arizona
with 100000 shares of 81 each.
The officers are: Walter F. Rock Of
Denver, president; A. c. Kref Sec
rotary, and j. w. Walker of Cherry
Creek, manager and treasurer. The
general Offices will be at Denver and
Cherry Creek. The papers have just
been filled, and the development
work planned for will be started i'm
mediately. A double compartment
shaft will be sunk on this great vein.
which is 800 to 400 feet across. and
has been traced for miles, the only
depth SO far attained being so or 50
foot shafts and numerous gopher
holes at various places along 1t, which
represents the assessment work of
various owners who have in this way
picked out easy places to comply with
the law and still hold their PROF erty.
Mr.. Walker says that from one
hole only thirty feet in depth on this
vein, ore running II Y per cent cop
per, SLIGO to $3.50 gold and small,
silver values was recently taken. Two
carloads of this ore were found in
that shaft.
Considerable granite with por-
phyry intrusions is found in the
vicinity, the great true assure vein
running nearly north and south, cut
ting all formations. The rich string
ers that have been opened up are
principally in the contacts. Rich ore
has been found in many places on the
surface, the whole formation being
what mining men declare ideal foe
rich naturalization, especially H. the
sulphide zone, some declaring this
Delker vein one of the biggest copper
deposits in any part of the state. This
company has $4,000 feet located
along the vein, and ultimately ex-
poets to have several prospective
shafts snuk at various places on the
vein.

months, and thereafter 10 per cent
for six months. Such a plan would
result in Is cent copper in the not
far distant future. In fact the cop
per market has already felt the
stimulus of buying" 1t is said that
the arrangements made for the cur
tailment of output in the big pro-
ducers will not be in the nature of
an agreement which might lay them
liable to investigation by legal au-
thority at Washington, but will con-
sist of an understanding whereby
each interest will handle the matter
of curtailment Independently. 1t is
known that the interests in this
country realize the necessity for such
curtailment and no opposition to the
plans being made abroad is anticipat-
ed.

gagged in grading for the spur track
from Wabuska to the proposed smell
ter site. The wire came from head
quarters but there was no explana-

ii is simply a case of not being able

According to a report from Boston
recently the Nevada Consolidated
for the month of June produced g.
186,S32 pounds of blister copper.
This is far in excess of what was ex-
pected. At the close of the month II
was stated, that it was not believed
that the production would exceed D.
100000 pounds of copper for the
month. This it was declared was due
TO the fact that one of the furnaces
was out of commission a great deal of
the time on account of IL being relin-
ed. The ore produced this month
makes June the banner month for
production from the Steptoe Valley
plant. In spite of one furnace being
out of commission the company was
able to produce more copper than
ever before.
