When Every Man Was an Enemy.

During the medieval period doors
were small and narrow, so that only
one person could pass through at a
time. owing to the universal need for
protection against attack. For this
same reason doorways were some
times set in recess. commanded by
openings through which arrows could
be shot The doors themselves We're

NEW DIAMOND FIELD FOUND
Stones Worth $4,000 Taken Monthly
From the Farm Of an Old Boer
In Western Transvaal.

Misunderstanding to information
received in London a new diamond
field has been discovered in the West
ern Transvaal. The site is the farm of
an cid Boer at Mooifontein. In the dis
trict OF Bloemhof. Mooifonteln now
has a population Of more than 5000
drawn there by the diamond fields.
The development OF the diamond field
was the outcome OF the rush Of miners
to Bloemhof, village on the Vasl
river. 22O miles from Johannesburg.
A iittls more than a year ago q
Dutch farmer discovered diamonds
near Bloemhof and some diggers from
mining camps went there. Among the
prospectors were the sons OF the old
Boer at Mooifontein. They found
that the gravel In which the diamonds
were found was Identical with gravel
on their fathers farm and went home
to investigate It
They struck pay dirt Immediately.
Last September the government Is
sued a proclamation declaring por-
tion of the farm TO be an alluvial dig
ging and the rush to stake claims was
begun. Mooifontein was the name OF
the old Beers farm. 1t is now small
city.
In November the owner, who was
receiving $4,000 a month in house
fees from the claim holders, protested
against the purpose to open more OF
his farm to diamond seekers. He said
that many Of those who came had
brought cattle and sheep which were
devastating his fields. The field is
now yielding about $150,O0O a month
in diamonds which are of quality
commanding $40 carat. Owing to
shortage of labor the amount Of dig
ging is comparatively small. Diamonds
have been found on other farms in
the vicinity OF Mooifontein and 1t is
believed that the field covers a wide
area.

COAST BANKER GIVES A
BOOST TO THE VALLEY
San Francisco Publication Of Interest
to Financial Men ExtolIs Our
Wonderful Development

The Coast Banker; publication de-
voted to financial matters and pub.
lished in San Francisco. has been
giving some pertinent facts about I'M
perial valley, gathered by it's editor
George p. Edwards, who recently Wis
tied the various towns of the valley
and was driven over much of it's high
ly productive ranch lands. The follow
ing are extracts from the Coast Bank
er for March:
"California's Imperial valley is just
a-humming. During the last two weeks
of February and the first of March
farm lands of value close to $4,000
changed hands. These are actual fig
ures given out by the bankers through
whose hands the money in payment
for the lands passed.
ut would appear that the people are
just awakening to the wonderful de-
velopment that is possible in the I'm
perial valley. The tillable soil is 1000
feet deep, and requires no fertiliza-
tion. One man entered the valley five
years ago with a pair of mules, a
wagon, few tools and $500 cash
Since then he has made 100000 and
at $3.50 an acre, several thousand dol.
lars worth of fine buildings, 2500 hogs,
his breeding stock, and this year sold
$500 more at a minimum of $40 per
head.
The officers of Imperial valley
banks are unanimous in an expression
of the opinion that the valley is des-
tined to yield millions of dollars of
produce of the very highest grade. On
the latter subject a remark made to
the writer by hotel keeper at Yuma,
Ariz., is enlightening. He said: we
can always tell the meat that we get
from the Imperial valley, as it is far
superior to that we get from any
other source. Also the creamery but
ter from the Imperial valley is far
superior TO any other butter we re.

Gold Filled.

A gold filed tooth and your gold fill
ed watch case may be said to be in
versely analogous-that is to say. your
gold filed tooth has more or less of the
tooth structure of enamel on the out
side with gold on core filling the cen
ter. Your gold filed watch case con-
sists of two sheets of gold. having be-
tween each sheet some baser metal to
which the gold is sOldered. AS to the
gold in the case. it may be Of any fine
ness and any thickness commensurate
with the term gold filled" A jeweler
will tell You that 10 carat gold is not
gold. having too great an admiXture of
baser metals. Many persons have the
idea that the gold filled case is an
amalgam of the kind instead of a
sandwich" of gold treated in the in

A new INDUSTRY IS
PLANNED FOR OIxIElANO
Expert Brick Manufactvrer Consider.
ing a Plant in the New
Town site
S5. .7AA& ~ N

An expert brick manufacturer spent
the greater part Of last Saturday In
Dixieland. prospecting for a suitable
quality OF clay for brick making. Tests
were made In almost every section
of the company's land. and In every
portion deep. rich red clay wa
found. I'm the southwestern part an
especially plastic sand bearing clay
was found which was pronounced as
being the finest brick material in the
valley. The stratum was SO deep
that an hours test failed TO reveal It's
thickness. The presence Of light strata
of sand which were found mixed with
this clay will eliminate the necessity
of hauling sand. which Is necessary
when too pure clay Is used This
sand mixture will produce a more uni
form and n less brittle brick, which
can be cut with more accuracy and
will stand the weather better.
Owing 10 the rich color Of the clay
good red brick is anticipated as a
finished product from this material. If
satisfactory negotiations can be made
with the Westside Land Company this
industry will be commenced at once.
The usual activity I'm sales of prop
erty is keeping up in the new town
and it is reported by the local Office
that the sales will reach the 100 mark
before the week ends.
