RAILROAD VALLEY
IS NOW Scene Of
GREAT ACTIVITY

d. H. Walker and Victor Barndt,
representatives of the Railroad Val
ley Saline company. who are at the
present time drilling for potash de-
posits known TO exist in Railroad
Valley, 135 miles east of Tonopah,
arrived in town Wednesday Both
gentlemen report considerable ae-
tiyity in that section. The Key
stone Special No. drill is kept
constantly at work and has bored
to a depth of 535 feet. Several
noted government experts on potash
have visited the district and all are
of the opinion that the district will
eventually become a producer. At
the present time the potash imported
from Germany amount to $26,000,-
600 year. The company also has
a number of men employed repairing
the road between Tonopah and Ely.

NORTHERN
TONOPAH Mines
GIVE PROMISE

The best indications of large and
permanent ore bodies found any
where close to this camp are in
a strongly mineralized section, about
six miles north of town, where sur
face groupings carrying good assays
can be found on every hand, and
1t is a good gamble that in time,
with proper development, some big
producing mines will be opened up
in this vicinity that will rival some
of the best mines in Tonopah.
From the general formation and
appearance of the ore carrying
bodies and the similarity OF assays,
mining engineers who have visited
this section are OF the opinion that
this ground was formed at the same
period as was Tonopah and possess
es a great deal of the same min
eral wealth, giving meritorious
promise of adding several more big
producers to this district.
The Northern Tonopah Mining
company owns nine claims and two
fractions in this section and will
soon start sinking again on their
shaft, which is now down 100 feet,
with erosscut of 40 feet. and
which opens up on a ledge three feet
wide carrying good values. This
ledge can be traced 1900 feet on the
surface. shows strong and is we'll

mine that viii eventually rank as
one OF Tonopah's big producers.

numbers of dead pheasants are annual
ly imported from Europe to be sold
for several times the price they bring
in European countries. The demand
for pheasants Is increasing.
Ringneck pheasants have long been
established in Oregon, Washington
and British Columbia, and are less
common In the wild stata in Massachu-
sets, New York, Indiana and Kansas.
The few pheasant stomachs ex-
amined indicate that these birds are
very fond of grain. Oats and wheat
composed about "a per cent. of the food
of IL ringneck pheasants collected in
Oregon and Washington and 1875 per
cent. Of the stomach contents of two
English pheasants from British Co
lumbia. But all Of these birds were
taken in September, October and De-
cember; hence It is probable that all
of this grain was waste. The next
largest item of food in these stomachs
was insects, consisting entirely of lar.
vac Of March flies. One stomach con.
tanned no fewer than $50 Of these lar.
vac and another 432. The remainder
of the food included acorns, pine seeds
browse, peas, rose hips, lupine, bur
clover, black mustard and chick
weed
From 200 to $50 kernels of wheat
and oats were taken by various birds
about 200 peas we're found in one
stomach, but it was evident that these
were the old and partly decomposeC
refuse of the harvest Twenty-threC
acorns and 200 pine seeds were taker
by the birds which ate the larges
amount of mast, and about 500 cap
sules of chickweed, containing more
than 5000 seeds, were in the stomach
of the best weed seed eater
What is most evident is that pleas
ants are gross feeders; theft capabili
ties for good or harm are great. If ;
number of them attack crop they ar
likely to make short work of it, or |
they devote themselves to weed seed
or insect pests they do a great deal o
good. 1t seems therefore that tn
question of the economic value o
pheasants is peculiarly a local one
Much depends on the proportion O
land under cultivation, the kind Q
crops raised, and the quantity of will
food available. Apparently tn
chances are about even that importe
pheasants will or will not becom

about, and is thus suitable for outdoor

up the bright and dark brown, amber
