There is no excuse for allowing bac.

much cheaper.
II the milk things are washed and
scalded and set where the sun can
shine on them for a few hours long
enough to dry them comprehensive
number Of germs left alive will not

Milk things should be thoroughly
washed In hot soapsuds. rinsed In
scalding hot water or live steam and
then set where the sun a shine on

For this reason we should be careful

To LET CONTRACT
 FOR SINKINK SHAFT
From. Sundays Dailyl


 So successful has been the recent work on the properties of the New Cumberland Mining company, on Pine Flat, that it has been deemed advis- able by General Manager Woodburn, to let a contract for the sinking of the main shaft to a depth of 800 feet, from the 300 foot level. This was the report brought in yesterday by Thomas Roach, the foreman of the enterprise.
 The Cumberland has recently pass ed the stage of possibilities in min ing, and is now firmly established, according to general reports, as one of the most attractive gold mining propositions in this county. Under the management of Dr. Woodburn, the enterprise has been subjected to conservative operating methods, com bined with practical effort, and the results have been attended with the most gratifying results.
 The plan to develop extensively and 10 depth, reflects the merited rating of the ground, and brings it into prominence as one of the permanent properties of the future.
 The Cumberland properties were originally sold by MT. Roach, who is cOnversant with the geology of that zone and he returns to the prop erty again after many years of an absence, to assist in the development of them, and of which he has been an optimistic advocate if operated on the principle that is now in evidence. The company has mill to treat the yield, and it is probable that it will soon be started up, so splendid is the showing from recent develop ment.

SINK TO RISE IS
 DEVELOPING FINE ORE
CFrom Sundays Dany1

Returning yesterday from Copper Basin, where he is developing the Sink to Rise mine, Ed. Block brought the good news that he had uncovered a fine body of ore in a new shaft, that is located about 800 feet to the west of the original workings.
 The new body is termed a banded vein, and the ores, which are very dark and oxidized, carry an abund- ance of garnets. Assays run from $5 to $50 in gold. The new shaft is but twenty-five feet deep, and no waste has been taken out in develop ment
 A force of miners was recently placed on this point of the claim af- ter the uncovering of the ledge, while at the main point on the other end of the mine the development has reached a depth of over 100 feer. with the peculiar aluminium formation still prevailing. A sample of that product, is filled with fine iron sul- phides. Assays run from $s2 to $123 in gold. The aluminium deposits lie m slabs, and some chunks will weigh hundreds of pounds, and others a few pounds only. The ore readily submits to disintegration when placed in water, and the composition melts readily under that treatment, leaving the heavy concentrations at the bot tom of the vessel.
 This creation is generally termed a mineralogical freak.
 The lack of any quartz character istics is considered remarkable with the concentrates so plainly in evi- denee. The Sink to Rise vein has another freakish makeup, running east and west. which is contrary to the established trend of all Assure mines in this field. About 24 per cent in aluminium is the assay value, and al- together with the new strike and the distinct ores taken out, it is pro- nOuneed one of the most unusual of mining claims in its formation and ore values, yet discovered in this county, baffling all in making any determination and perplexing the owner as to what he has or what he can anticipate with depth.
 He will continue exploitation and has let another contract at both ends of the vein.

CEMENT MAN LEAVES.

NJ. s. Burhans, the cement con- tractor at Ash Fork, who has been in the city for several days, left yes terday for his home. He stated that when weather conditions will permit, he will begin the rebuilding of sew eral cement dams to the north of that place that were washed out dur ing the heavy storms of December, in addition to the construction of sev- eral new ones. This industry is as- suming more regard from the range interests each year, and last season the utility of water storage was made one of the most potent factors in the caring and preservation of the sheep and cattle on the range at that point.
