FOR THE GOOD OF COLORADO
Plan on Foot to Revive State Bureau
of Immigration and Its Work

One of the most important move
ments for the development of Colorado
ever started in this state has been be-
gun by the Colorado Realty Dealers ;
association. 1t is proposed to revive
the state immigration bureau by means
of bill to be initiated and voted upon
this fall, which will place the bureau
in the second class, instead Of the
fourth, in the payment of appropria-
tions, and to give it an annual fund
of not less than $25, 900 for the purpose
of advertising Colorado.
During the one year that the bureau
was in active existence records were
obtained which proved that, for every
dollar spent by the bureau, 500 was
brought into the state. AS very few
homeseekers ever report to such bu-
reau, it is believed chat the actual re-
turns were many times this amount.
For the last two years there has
been no money available for this work.
and the state has suffered in conse-
quence. Other states are getting the
new settlers. Wyoming is spending
$4,000 year in advertising its re-
sources, and settlers and investors are
flocking to that state.
The Realty association will next
distribute petitions to every real estate
man in Colorado and to all newspapers
in short, sharp campaign to get the
number of names to initiate the bill
under the new law. 1t is not expected
that there will be any opposition 20
the bill from any source, since it is
certainly for the good of Colorado.

cows PAY

The Ranch and Range recently had
a good article on "Does it Pay to
Keep Cowsg" by j Wood The writer
gives three cases where it paid.
The first case was storekeeper III
Golden He failed in business. Gut oil
the wreck he saved well located
ranch, and a good one, about i've miles
east of Golden, on the middle Golden
road. There was large young orchari
that would not bear for some years, S"
how to make a present living was the
problem. He bought few cows, graz
ually added more, until finally he owned
a hundred, and even bought milk of his
ncighbors. He operated milk and
butter route in Golden. and sold his
buttermilk in Denver. He succeeded
in getting pretty well established imam
cially, when he sold of MS common
stock gradually, went east and bought
about dozen pure bred registered Jer-
scys. He pad high prices but soon be
gan to sell his Jersey butter IN Denver
to high grade restaurants, hotels and
clubs for 80 cents a pound, and in
few years when the japanese govern
ment applied to the United States agrl
cultural department for directions as
to where they could purchose the best
high grade Jersey stock to begin gov
ernment dairy in Japan, our government:
referred them to Mr.. c. E. Parfet, on
the Middle Golden Road, who sold the
required stock at fancy prices. A
daily record of the milk and butter fat
of each cow is kept religiously. Should
any show much under grade or have any
physical blemish, he either sells them
to the butcher or elsewhere. He says,
lit pays"
A Wheatridge man, one mile west OF
the Denver county line, has about ten
acres of fruit farm, apples and small
fruits. He usually rents a few acres
nearby which he plants to mangei
wurtzels for winter COW feed. All his
grain and hay he buys. Considerable
fodder is raised between the rows OF
apple trees. He keeps about five cows,
and gets three prices for his milk. First.
they make good article OF butter, de
livering it to regular customers in Den
yer. This is the frst price. Second,
they sell all their buttermilk at five
cents quart, second price. Then they
make cottage cheese from the skim
milk, which they sell at five cents
double tablespoonful, thus giving the
third price. You will not be surprised
when 1 say that they built themselves
fine two-story, pressed brick house,
with cement basement under the whole
house, recently, and are in comfortable
circumstances, the most of the cash
coming from the cows. Mr.. Gleason
says, at pays to keep cows
Third, Boulder county man tells ME
the history of one COW that be has been
keeping. He has a separator, and sells
the cream to the creamery. The milk

high. He paid $500 for her when she
was two years old. 1t cost him, as he
bought all the feed, $4,000 a year fol-
her keep. His receipts for milk and
cream were, for the same year, $50
besides which he had the skim milk for
pig and fine heifer calf; profit
above the value of the calf and pig OF
$40 year or e5 per cent on the 6rst
cost of the COW. He has more cows
now. He says, "It pays to keep cows.

Ore Shipments
 Reach Big Figures.

That PiOche is one of the best min- ing camps in the west at the present time is evidenced by the ore shipments being made from the camp at the present time and with very tiattering prospects that the output will soon be very materially increased.
 The Prince Consolidated Company leads with an average output of 300 tons. or six carloads, per day from the mine.
 The Mendha company is sending out 50 tons per day from its property in the Highland district, while the Day. Bristol Company is marketing ap. proximately 100 tons per day from it's Bristol and Jack Rabbit mines. In the near future, there is every reason to believe, this company will be send- ing regularly several hundred tons ally-particuarly after it shall have completed the erection of the propos ed aerlal tramway connecting the Bristol mines with the Pioche Pacific railroads at Jack Rabbit. The Day. Bristol company has sixty head of horses on the road constantly hauling ore to the railroad from the Bristol side.
 In addition to the activities of the Day Bristol, the Home Run Copper company is shipping from its Bristol mine, and not withstanding that the Home Run is yet in the initial stages of production. it is marketing at least one car per week. Snyder and Empey are also shipping from Bristol and will have another car in tarnsit early next week.
 The Highland Mary mine in the Highland district is another good pro. ducer.
 All told, approximately 70 cars of ore is being sent from Pioche every week, while over 100 cars of taihngs per week are going from Bullionv!lle and Condor canyon, making a total of about POO cars in transit weekly over the Pioche branch at the present time. -Pioche Record.

Big Strike Made
 at the Union Mine.

The wisdom of giving young men a hand in the mine operating game, particularly where they are fortified with practical experience and a col legiate course along scientific lines, was exemplfied recently in the big strike that was made at the Union mine in Chaparral by w. H. Jones, who was entrusted by his father with the sole operating of the property.
 The cutting into of new and un- known ore body has been determined, and exploration given in the past week has demonstrated the property as facing it's most attractive prospect in many years.
 The development was started by MT. Jones in cross.cut that penetrat- ed the dolorite footwall in the Union stope about so feet above the floor of the adlt. A fve-foot ore. body was en- countered. thirty inches of which as- sayed l3$ per ton in gold. The ship ping ore of the sample was left out, and when assayed gave values of 72$ per ton in gold. It is an arsencal sulphide, and is attracting attention for its character, being the first de. yeloped in the mine.
 The point where this important dis. covery was made lies parallel to the original Union vein that has been un. der operation for many years. From the new strike batch of ore estimat. ed at nearly 1,0O0$ has been placed in the bin and the mill will be started immediately to treat it, while the shipping grade will probably be sent to the Humboldt smelter. Miners who have inspected the zone where the discovery was made are pleased over the unexpected that has taken place, and state that the successful eff. forts of this young mining engineer should be initiated by those who have been in the business for so many years, without digressing an inch from a set method that often proves disastrous in the making of mine.- Prescott Journal

Leasing Plan is
 Proposed for Miners.

A Prescott dispatch says:-Quite the most important item of business brought before the chamber of com merce at it's regular meeting here was an equitable leasing plan devised by Ed Block of the mines and mining committee.
 Briefly it is this: Party of the first part furnishes supplies, powder and tools, party of second furnishing labor. The following disbursements are then made from the results of the mining: payment for treatment and transporta- tion; royalty to owners of mine: cost of supplies; 3s per day to miners forming the party of the second part and fin. ally, if there be any profit left, one- half of the residue goes to the party of the first part, the other to parties of second part.
 "A property having been leased in thls manner, a group of merchants or wage earners contributes certain dIHouuU LII pOOl dSCOl tO the number of miners forming the second part.
 "Should any member of the party of first part fail or refuse to pay his pro- portion towards the supplies, he for feits hls interest in the leasing com pany and any of the remaining mem bers possess the right to carry the for feited interest or take in new mem Der, as they see fit.
 ''In the case that any of the prac- tical miners fail or refuse to continue work, the remaining miners may car ny it on. or substitute another miner to carry the forfeited interest, at their option.
 "For example, three miners agree to work. Their expenses for food, powder and tools may be said to az gregate 90$ month. Six men con- tributlng l5S each month, furnish these supplies to the amount named "
 Blocks contention, supported by many other members present, is that this plan has proved signally success ful in several Colorado mining camps. Last year the Denver chamber of com. merce undertook series of grub stakes with such success that very prosperous holding company was eventually formed from the mem ber- ship of the chamber, which is now doing aggressive and satisfactory work toward reviving Colorado's mining industry.
 The mines and mining committee may print recon mendations as to Blocks scheme and send them broad cast to every mine owner and pros- pector in Arizona. Their final report will be rendered within few days.

The Second-Foot of Water.

''Second.foot." as defined by the United States Geological Survey, is an abbreviation for cubic foot per second and is the unit for the rate of dis. charge of water flowing Tn a stream 1 foot wide, foot deep, at rate of foot per second. It is generally used as a fundimental unit in measurements of steam flow.
 ''Second-feet per square mile" is the average nun Der of cube feet of water flowing per second from each square mile of area drained, on the assump- tion that the run off is distributed uni formly both as regards time and area.
 An "acre. foot" is equivalent to 43.- 560 cubic feet and IS the quantity re- quired to cover an acre to the depth of foot The term is commonly used in connection with storage for irrigation work.
 One second.foot flow equals 7.4S United States gallons second, AS 8 gallons a minute, or Gi6.3l7 gallons a day. As California miners inch" equals o l87 gallon second, there are 40 California miners inches in l second-foot.

Rich Copper Strike
 Reported Near City.

Rumors are floating around Phoenix today that huge copper strike has been made recently near the Kay and Harris Copper mines. The reports are that the strike is the largest ever made in Arizona. The strike is said to have been made two months ago, Creek, fifty mil9s north of Phoenix, where It enters into the Augua Fria Mining men from all over the country have been travellng through Phoenix to that vicinity, necessarily, for the past month or two, and if appearances are taken for granted, there must surely be some reason for this activity It is believed that in month or two will come a detailed report from the owners and operators of these two mines, the Kay and the Harris.
 Charles J. w. Sanders, ex-mayor of Dubuque, Iowa, and treasurer of the Kay Copper company, returned from his mine yesterday, and left for Los Angeles in a hurry.
 c. C. Harris came here from Find lay, Ohio, to inspect his company's holdings, which are near the claims of the Kay Copper company. Mr. Harris is president of the Harris Copper con- pany, upon which part of the huge strike has been made.
 The Kay Copper company and the Harris Copper company are shipping large quantities of high grade copper ore from Glendale to where it has to be hauled by fifteen mule teams. Every car load of ore that has been sent to the smelters from these two companies has brought higher and higher prices. as the ore each time is found to be of a better quality than before, thus giving verification to the report that the strike is composed of nearly all pure copper of the finest grade. de.-PhoeniX Democrat.

lACES ON DANCING FROCKS
All-Over Method Is Favored for tho
Debutante and Second Season
Young Lady.

All-over lace dancing frocks and
frocks of flounced net are made up for
debutantes and young women In their
second season. Some of these gowns
are draped over with pompadour chif-
fon or net, and almost all Of them
have graceful sashes draped in me
way or another. More stately gowns
for opera or the theater wear have
tunics Of oriental lace over skirts OF
satin, and chantilly, both in black and
white, is particularly the rage. Tiny
chiffon roses, used in clusters Of pas
tel colors, are used to catch up the
lace draperies. Beaded laces are a
new note, and the beaded nets and
chiffons for tunics are wonderful In
their heaviness Of weight and filmi-
ness and fragility of fabric White Jet
Is often combined with black Jet In
bead embroideries. A gown OF this
sort has a tunic Of white Jet. over
skirt of white satin yelled with a
flounce Of black chantilly. One huge
red rose, near the hem of the skirt,
catches up the lace. The bodice of
white tulle Is outlined along the
square decolletage at back and front
by lines Of black jet. and across the
square at front and back are set straps
Of white Jet embroidery. The tunic Of
white and black Jet crosses this little
transparent net bodice and falls over
the skirt in long, clinging lines. Boots
of white satin with cut jet buttons
complete the striking costume.
