NEVADA SUGAR COMPANY TO

Business Transacted This Year Gives
Assurance of Future.

That the Nevada Sugar Company's
plant at Fallon will operate next year
was made manifest when, upon peti-

beets during 1914.
Copies of the mandate have been
forwarded to the Bay City, Mich, and

signatures.
The basic rate to be paid farmers
next year will be $5 per ton for beets
going Is per cent sugar. For each adj

will be penalized in a like amount for

COPPER MAY BE PRODUCED
AT FIVE CENTS.
Efficiency Attained in Leaching at the
Butte Duluth Plant.

Under new system of treatment
recently adopted at the Butte Duluth
plant it is expected the company will
soon be producing copper at a cost
of 5 cents per pound.
This adaptation to silicious and oxi-
died copper ores of teaching methods
of greatly increased efficiency marks
great stride forward. Heretofore
the teaching of the ore was accom-
plished by permitting a 10 per cent
sulphuric acid solution to cascade
from one long trough-like tank to an
other through ore particles OF coarse
mesh. effecting an extraction of about
70 per cent of the copper content. By
the installation of a machine, which
thus far lacks any special designation
other than that it is teacher, classiher
and conveyor combined, the ore, finely
ground but not slimed, is raked over
by long wooden arms, all ore particles
being brought into immediate contact
with the acid solution, this method
of effecting an extraction of SO per
cent on a basis of treatment of ten
tons of ore for a period of thirty
minutes.
Carbonate ores have been leached
successfully III Arizona tor several
years past and have added largely to
the net income of the companies.
1t is said engineers of the Butte
& Superior Copper Company have
made inspectnion of the Butte Duluth
properties recently, which caused the
report to be current that offers for the
purchase of the Butte Duluth mine
had been made by the Butte & Su-
perior Company Local engineers of
the Butte & Superior Company do not
believe that any such offer was made
Local engineers assert that large
acreage has been bought by the Butte
& Superior Company since d. c. Jack
ling and his associates obtained con-
troll and that the company is in posi-
ton to purchase more ground provid-
ing the naturalization is such as to
warrant the investment.-Salt Lake

ESMERALDA WINS ITS CASE
AGAINST BANK.
Supreme Court Sustains Judge Lam
gan's Decision.

On Tuesday of this week the Su-
preme Court of this State, sitting in
Carson. sustained the decision of
Judge Langan in the case of Esmer-
aida caunty against the defunct State
Bank & Trust Co. The decision is
to the effect that Esmeralda county's
claim for 1890 AGAINST the company
is a prior claim as decided by Judge
Langan in an order appealed from by
Receiver Frank Wildes. The appeal
was dismissed Justice McCarran, in
his opinion, adopts the view held by
District Attorney Diskin, of Esmeral-
da county, that the deposit made by
Sheriff w. A. Ingalls, for the county
prior to the failure of the bank was a
special deposit and constitutes prior
claim on the remaining resources of
the bank. This sustains the order of
the lower court
Sheriff ingalls, brought suit in Judge
Langan's court at Carson for the re-
turn of the funds deposited by him on
behalf of the county. basing his action
on the claim that the deposit was a
county deposit and therefore special in
It's nature under the law Judge Lam
gan gave a verdict for the amount
named and Receiver Wildes appealed
to the Supreme Court. The case has
been pending many months. Under
the decision of Tuesday the sum of
1886 must be returned to Esmer-
aida county before the ordinary de-
posi,ors of the bank are to be consid-
cred.
The decision is regarded as most
important, as it disposes of the Re-
ceiver's claim of right to appeal
from the court that appoints him.
While only 1890 was involved in the
case directly before the court, the de-
cision acts as precedent not only
in State Bank cases. but also in the
Nye and Ormsby County Bank cases,
involving sums that will aggregate
close to $l.000,000. Nearly $4,000
hinged on this decision in Esmeralda
county alone.

the Salt Lake & Utah railroad, who
has been in charge of construction
since the beginning of work on that
line, in September, 1913, has resigned

a production of $50 tons per day. He
was also Chief Engineer of the Ne

charge of the construction of AZ miles
of that line for the Orem people.
From here he went to Salt Lake to
accept the position of Chief Engineer
of the Salt. Lake & Utah inter-urban
road running south from Salt Lake
to Payson through a splendid coun-

FOREIGN POTOTOES UNDER

Secretary Houston, of Washington,
on Monday of this week issued an
order continuing the quarantine put
temporarily into effect September ~
last forbidding potato importations
from the British Isles, Canada and all
continental Europe. This action was
modified. however, by second order
under which the quarantine may be
raised under proper regulation and
inspection from foreign countries or
districts which can show that they are
free from potato wart and powdery
scab the two diseases which the De-
partment of Agriculture aims to keep

The second becomes effective Janu-

Representatives of various countries
affected appeared at hearings recently
held at the department and protested
against the quarantine.
In the case of certain provinces in
Canada and certain countries and dis
tricts of Europe. the officials at Wash
ington believe the absolute prohibit
ton can be lifted in time to allow the
movement of the present years crop,
under regulation and inspection, which
under the Secretary's order is SINH
lar to that for nursery stock
In a statement accompanying the
orders. the department announced that
"the present potato excitement is ap-
parently due to Misunderstanding of
the yield of this year"
The department experts estimate
the crop at 331 SIS 900 bushels, which,
the statement says, "is considerably
above the ten-year average and ex-
ceeds the annual food and planting
consumption of potatoes in the United
States" The present supply in farm
ers' hands is large

Smith Valley Mines-The vicinity

Smith Valley Mines-The vicinity
of the Smith Valley Mines is busy
section. Superintendent Parr is push
ing work and getting things in shape
for future big production. The old
Warren tunnel is the scene of the
latest sensational development. Some
verv rich ore is being opened up at
this point. The tunnel will cut under
the shaft deDth of some 20 feet 1t
was not expected that the ore would
be encountered for some distance yet
but it has been cut and proves the ore
body to be much greater in length and
extent than was expected from the
workings above This tunnel will be
pushed in and connection made with
the shaft, which will give good air in
the lower workings. Rapid progress
is being made in retimbering the shaft,
the new hoist is set and connections
are being made as fast as possible
The gallows frame is going up, all
framing, etc, having been done. The
new compressor and 90 h. p. engine to
run it have been shipped and every
thing is ready for installing the ma
chimes as soon as they arrive. When
this is done production will begin and
at least 200 tons of ore will be ship
ped daily. What this will mean to the
fortunate holders of stock everyone
who has ever received an income from
mining investment has full knowl-
edge. With the big tonnage already
opened up in this property, carrying
the values that it does, it would seem
that an investment in this property
ought to be as good as in any indus
trial stock ever issued.
Mr.. John Mcleod who is in Yer
ington spending the holidays, and who
is probably as well informed as any
one regarding the Smith Valley Mines
Co.'S property, says that in his 32
years of mining in the United States
and Mexico he has never seen so big
a showing as this property has for the
small amount OF development work
done His opinion is not to be passed
over lightly.
Blue Jay-lt seems that the old Blue
Jay property on the east side is not
to stand idle long. James Keeland
of New York. has taken bond on the
ground and agrees to pay $500 with

for the full payment of $35, 600 for the
property, payments to be made at
stated intervals within a year Mr.
Keeland formerly had bond on this
property, some II or Ia years ago,
and did some development work on
it. AS soon as he heard the property
was open he began negotiations for it,

property he has been after. AS soon
