He was accompanied by W. A. Davis, of the Tom Reed Gold Mines company. The company has contracted a large amount of work in it's mining properties, hay ing sunk the shaft to depth of 160 feet and opening up splendid body of gold bearing ore. The showing is said to be as good as that of the Tom Reed at the same depth. The companyis to continue operations to still greater depth, the present visit to the mine being with view to mapping put the future work. Today a large num- Der of the directors and sharehold- CTS of the company are to go out to the mines, where a meeting will be held.
 Miner & Stockman: There is a general good feeling among the holders of Twin Buttes Copper Company stock. Under the man. agement of E. c. Bush, who has been prospecting the neglected portion of the. workings in the Senator Morgan, and King mines, bodies of a good grade of ore have been opened up which bid fair to be permanent and of immense quantities. They have shipped several hundred tons to the Pion- ger Shelter and it is believed that with little more work they will be able to ship daily enough ore to keep the smelter running, which will be 150 tons every "A hours. The development work under MT. Bush, who is very quiet man, has proved wonderful as he has not only made good but has raised the price of the stock. They have about 26 men at work.

MINING NEWS.
( Collection of Short Newsy Items
 From Among the Mines of Arizona.

Jerome News: President null continues to rush development on the holdings of the Hull Company, and good results are being attained in all the workings.
 Miner x Stockman: Bent and Sampson's tungsten mines in the Guiia mountains are showing up we'll. The second carload of ore is now being shipped. A peculiar ore is found in small quantities, schist running as high as 30 to 60 per cent in tungsten perhaps form ed from gases arising from the tungsten in the wolframite ore. Here is a chance for new TIE.
 Jerome News: Extraordinary progress is being made in driving the 800.foot tunnel on the Calumet < Jerome. Today this tunnel is in 100 feet, in a rock that gives indications that change of forma- tion is near at band, and the local stockholders in this company are keenly watching developments This property is conceded to be one of the best in the district, and it now looks as if it could not get away from making good.
 
 Jerome News: Conditions con- tinue to improve in the workings on the Arkansas < Arizona ground. Thursday evening while the editor of News was at the shaft, they hoisted some ore from a drift in the 1900. foot level that looks extreme ly good, and which contains, besides the copper sulphides, a great deal of peacock copper. This ore covers a five foot face, and carries more values as the drift advances. This mine looks better today than ever before in it's history. It looks very much as if the Arkansas & Arizona would de- velop into agreat mineral producer.
 Yuma Sun: G. E. Mckay, George Probasco and Captain D. c. Rose, left Sunday for the Red Cross mine on the Norton ranch. It is their intention to get out a car load of ore and ship it to El Paso in order to get a mill test of the ore on a large scale. This mine is silver property and is very rich, some of the ore which has been treated in small quantities has run fifty per cent silver The mine was originally located by G w. Norton and he shipped car load of ore from it that netted him $10,000. He has recently leased it to Captain Rose and his as' sOciates.
 Mohave Miner: Thomas Hogan an owner of the Atlantic and Pacific group of mines, is visiting in Kingman. MT. Hogan and partners, J. c. Potts and L Kimberley have done a large amount of work on the properties the past year and have a good showing of gold ore. The property is situated close to Thumb Butte south of the Gold Dome properties now being operated by the Frisco Mines < Power company, ant consists of a number of claims The mines are we'll situated fol economic work and the camp i' one of the most ideal in that sec tion of the district, being wei supplied with spring water anC

BRITISH MINERS
MAY STAY OUT
Vote on Returning to Work
Is Very Close.
SOME CHANGE OF OPINION
WeIshmen, Who Were Backbone of
Original Strike, Voting Strongly In
Favor OF Returning to Work, While
the English Take the Opposite View.

London, April 3-The English min
ers, who in the first instance were less
willing to strike for the principle of a
minimum wage than their Welsh and
Scottish comrades, are now, as far Us
the figures of the ballot tell, still less
willing to return to work. The Welsh
men who were the backbone of the
original strike are voting strongly In
favor of returning to the pits.
The change of opinion has upset all
calculations and although the public
and the lead of the miners are still
hopeful that the final result Of the
veting will be In favor of calling of
the strike, the majority either way
promises to be narrow one.
Returns thus far are about 100000
votes. Tie exact proportion fer and
against is not known. In some cases
IL is declared that the majority in fa
vor of resumption is nearly 10000
while in others a majority OF 2,50C
against returning to the pits is given
The Official count will be made soou
by the executive committee of the
Miners federation and the result viii

TheWorldS Champion Ear \

took few short courses al Purdue
University and rented portion of
the farm he now occupies. Nine
years ago he began carefully breed
ing this new variety of corn. For
two years he planted two rows of
Reid's Yellow Dent, then two of
Alexander's Gold Standard, detas-
selling the Gold Standard From
the detasseled rows he picked for
seed only the ears carrying the
characteristics he wanted to repro
duce, planting these in breeding
plots and maintaining careful Sc
lection, SO that in nine years time
he had developed a well-settled
type.
The Palm champion ear was the
first winner of the w. K. Kellogg
National Corn Trophy, a handsome
silver and enamel cup made by
Tiffany of New York at a cost of
$1,000. Mr.. Kellogg as the origi-
nator and manufacturer of Toasted
Corn Flakes naturally has a deep
interest in the development of the
higher grades of corn, for the
company of which he is president,
the Kellogg Toasted Corn Flake
Co., requires ten thousand bushels
of corn day for the making of its
product. The Kellogg trophy was
offered to be awarded in annual
competition for the best single ear
of corn until won twice by the same
producer. The fact that the Kel.
logg product is made only from
selected white corn, while the win
ming ear was of pronounced yell
low type, was a peculiar feature.
The Kellogg trophy was won in
1910 at Columbus, Ohio, by R. A
James, of Charleston, Ill, with a
magnificent ear of Reid's Yellow
Dent, but not so perfect an ear as
that which originally won the tro-
ply and which has become known
as 1.-The best ear of corn ever
grown"
The next award of this trophy
will be made at the next National

ostentation.

OStentat1On.
The champion ear of corn was
not an accident. There can be no
greater lesson in the value of care
full study and painstaking selection
of seed and breeding than the ex-
periences of this same Palm. The
farmer who thinks he stands a
chance to go into his corn field and
by a piece of luck pick out an ear
which Nature has fashioned even
more perfectly and with it wrest
the honors from this Indiana man,
cannot do better to disabuse his
mind of this fallacious notion than
to read the story of Palm and his
champion ear.
In the first place, Palm knows
corn. If there was no more proof
of this fact than the bare story of
the development and discovery of
the champion ear, it would be
enough. And in proof of this fact,
here is the story as he told it
himself:
1t was in November, 1910, and
we were just harvesting our crop
