NEVADA To HAVE
No MORE FINISH
FIGHTS BY PUGS
BY W. w. Naughton.

q AN FRANCISCO, March 22-
y As a convincing ground for
the champions OF the prize
ring Nevada has been wiped off
the map. Sixteen years ago
through the activities of Promoter
Dan Stewart the legislature OF the
sagebrush state passed a measure
which made finish fights possible.
The first contest under the new
order of things was that between
Bob Fitzimmons and Jim Cor
bett. 1t took place at Carson on
St Patrick's day and by a note
worthy coincidence the law was
repealed on the sixteenth anniver-
sary 6f the bout in question.
Nevada has not been entirely
deprived of Queensberry entertain
ment. Ten-round events are to
take the place of finish fights, a
license fee of 500 being provided
for.
NJ EW YORK is not the only city
where they discipline boxers
who offend against the rules laid
down. San Francisco boasts a
Boxing Promoters Association,
and any gloveman who thinks he
can play fast and loose with these
match handlers will find himself

GRAIN HARVEST IN PROGRESS
Two Car Loads of New Binders Required Addition to Od

sale this season of five disks and
three disk drills. All of which
is pretty good showing of busi-
ness for a town too small to get
in the government census report.
1t is of course difficult to make
any accurate estimate of the
amount of grain to be harvested
in this vicinity this season; but
these new binders, together with
the binders and headers in use
here last year, will be kept busy
every fair day for some time yet,
caring for the ripening grain. A
large part Of the spring grains
remain uncut, and the rains of
the week are relied upon to make
these crops, particularly the oats,
which are generally later than
the spring rye, wheat and bar
ley.
Corn and other cultivated crops
are doing nicely, having stood
the drouth we'll, and are now ex-
pected to mature properly. Mil
let, always slow in starting, is
beginning to grow rapidly, and
those who have it planted are
counting on heavy yields of hay.
Many families have been getting
much of their living from their
gardens, usually raised without
irrigation. Radishes and lettuce
have been used for weeks, and
later vegetables, such as peas,
beans, cucumbers, squash and
potatoes, are beginning to bear.
Cabbage, melons and tomatoes
give promise of later yield, and
there are those who expect very
soon to begin the use of home
grown roasting-ears.
The Keota news., 1913-08-01

mers have been busy with their
harvest. In no former year has
the acreage of wheat, oats, rye
and barley been even half so
great as this, and never, with the
possible exception of last year,
has the estimated yield per acre
been so satisfactory. Despite a
drouth period of seventy days,
lasting from the 18th of March
to the 23d of July, with no single
rain in that time amounting to
more than one-fourth inch, a
large portion of the grain has
filled exceedingly we'll. The sea-
sons experience has demonstrat-
ed that, given good conditions to
start with and reasonably good
methods of farming, our lands
will produce satisfactory crops
with very slight rainfall during
the growing season.
Early in the year it became ev-
ident that much additional har
vesting machinery would be re-
quired to handle the crop, so the
local implement dealers set about
making contracts with the far
mers for desired machinery, in
order that the demand might be
supplied when harvest time came.
Besides mowers, reapers and
rakes, sixteen latest model Deer
ing and Mccormick binders were
sold, and the last one was deliv-
cred to it's purchaser last week.
For two weeks or more the i'm
plement shed of the Keota Lum-
ber Co. presented busy scene,
with binders in process of erec-
ton and others lined up outside,
or being taken for initial test on
the Keota streets. Mr.. Dodder's

together, and all were set up and

But if they be united in equal parts l shall be inclined to think that when both are but moderate the in- duence Of nature is nevertheless the greater, but finished orators, consider. owe more to learning than to nature.

The Superior and Boston.

We have noticed from time to time the work and developments on IT
 Superior & Boston The following is
 from the latest report by the engineer,
 who has just completed an exhaustive
 report upon the property:
 The report by Engineer Thomas.
 who recently made an examination of
 underground conditions and Superior
 and Boston, says in part: All the
 present development work is carried
 on in McGraW shaft. The Great East
 ern ledge was displaced by d fault
 at 300 feet east of the west boundary
 of the Superior and Boston property.
 This ledge was picked up again on
 the eighth level east, and showed
 that it had been displaced southeast
 800 feet. The ledge carried ore TOT
 300 feet eact of the fault. but was
 very variable in width. and should be crossCut to determine the amount of ore. A crOsscut was run into the hanging and showed ledge matter for 1 twenty feet, which consists of oxide If iron with copper strain throughout \ raise is run on this ore from the eighth level and at 155 feet it was found that the ore was on the hang ing side of the raise and the angle of the raise was made sleeper, so that 1 1t exposed ore avera ging fourteen feet 1 in width for ninety feet, with the same character of ore above. A crOsscut driven on the sixth level eX- 1 posed fourteen feet of ore and this ore has been drifted on for forty | feet, showing strong all the way. This means that the ore continues through 1 from the raise to the sixth level 1 which is a body of ore fourteen feet
 in width and 210 feet in height at | 115 per cent copper, which IS the
 average value of copper in both raise
 and sixth level This means $7400 for every foot along the ledge that con- tinues to hold it's present width. This 1 ore extends above the sixth level and
 a crosscut will be run on the fourth 1 level to strike it above. CrosS-cut are | driven to strike the ore below on the l tenth and twelfth levels. The char acter of the ore should change from oxides to sulphides at about the 1 twelfth level There is now being l shipped about fifty tons of ore daily l from the development work carried
 on in the raise and the running of
 the sixth level drifts both east and west All three of the 1edges, name ] lY. Black Oxide. Limestone and Great 1 Eastern, have been worked west of
 the fault which displaced them. and in a country that has been Assured up. I believe the same lodges will | be encountered east of this faulted zone and larger and better ore bodies | should be found as the surface indi- cations show no cross faulting for a distance of 2000 feet, which makes the conditions more favorable for the deposition of ore. There are two other lodges parallel to those already 1 mentiOned--one known as the Old Dominion fault, and the other en- countered on the twelfth level along the 1255 drift, which would be well to develop east of the cross faults My advice is to drift east of the cross
 faults, then crOsscut north and south parallel to the cross fault In this wall all the ore bearing lodges would De encountered. as the ore bearing

Arizona's Fame

It is wonderful how many people think that all the mines are in Ari- zona, and this is. illustrated by three inquiries that have been made re- sarding properties within the last two weeks. There was an inquiry from Canada concerning property. and by the description l knew it wasn't in Arizona. After a little research. it was located near Butte Montana. An other one was in Nevada and a third in Northern California. and not any of these Were registered Arizona in corporatorS.

ity. In developing the property in
 this way it is impossible to miss the
 lodges; while if the faults are fol- lowed the ore bearing lodges are very liable to be missed. The equipment at the mine is good and sufficient to carry on all development work for some time to come In conclusion 1t

Probably there never was time in Arizona's history when so many mining men. identified with mining in Nevada. are securing Arizona in search of mining properties. They seem to be everywhere, all over the state. A great many are now in the vicinity of Globe, Superior and other districts and many have pass ed through Phoenix It all goes to prove that all eyes in the mining world are turned toward Arizona.
