TO DEVELOP PROSPECT
Polk Farmer Engages Colorado Min
ing Expert to Investigate Gold Find
on Place; to Sink Shaft.

For the purpose of making an eX-
tensive and comprehensive examina-
tion of possible gold deposits on his
farm two and one-half miles west of
Salem, in Polk county, on the Dallas
road, William Schwett has made ar
rangements with a mining expert
from Cripple Creek, Colorado, to un-
dertake the development of the find,
work to begin in October.
On the Schwett farm are three
springs, and it has long been known
by the owner that good colors could
be found at these springs. He gath
cred some of the dirt and sent it to
Denver for examination and assay. II
was found that the soil ran about $50
to the ton. but the great expense in
volved in developing the prospect pre-
vented Mr.. Schwett from going into
the matter further at that time. He
says he has now made arrangements
to go ahead with the work and he
proposes to find out just what the hills
on his farm contain. Among the
plans already outlined by the Colorado
mining man, is the sinking of shaft
100 or $50 feet in depth in the hope
of encountering the main ledge or
lead. Recent Investigations have, it is
said, convinced experts that the dis
covery is worth investigating.
