said James Brown, mine manager,

men, who were near the entrance to
the shaft, but it saved the lives of
many more
James ID. Brown, mine manager,
today said that he gave the order
to reverse the air. He was walking
from the engine room to the shaft
when the explosion occurred. He
shouted to the engineer to reverse
the air fan. Browns story:
The men had just gone down and
| knew most of them had gone far
from the shaft. The reversing of the
fan forced fresh air diwn the main
shaft to the men. A cage was at
the top and / jumped into it and
went to the bottom.
II found 10 men near the shaft
who did not know the air had been
reversed and We're starting toward
the air shaft. | turned them back
and they were all saved. The cages
were not damaged. The men were
quickly hoisted to the top.
The men farther back quickly
| discovered that the air had been re-
versed and made their way to the
| bottom of the main shaft and were
hoisted to the surface. Some of them
were overcome and had to be assist
ed. They all revived as soon as
they reached the open air."
Leo Bellamy, who was rescued
from the mine today, told how the
reversal of the air brought death to
some. He said:
Il was walking along the main
air course when the explosion occur

HOW FARMERS

The department Is continually re-

depends partly upon the particular
Deeds OF q given community and
partly upon the capacity which farm.

There should be strong local feeling
Of the need of some improvement and
that certain definite alals or purposes
can be more fully realized with the
Aid Of organized interest and activity
than through individual effort alone.
II ia follV 10 expect that mere organ

BEWARE or FRAUDS

Reports are nov beginning 70 come
in to the department from several Of
the states Qaarantined for the foot
aOd-mouth disc ase that persons who
nave no connection whatsoever with
the department are attempting To pass
themselves OF as Federal inspectors.
There are several possible motives
that might account for the existence
Of these imposters. In the outbreak
of 1908 there we're instances OF men
who obtained money from creduIous
victims who believed that In this
way they would escape the inconven-
ience Of quarantine and disinfection.
This Is, OF course, a very.simple form
Of extortion. Another motive may
be the sale Of some quacE rem edy for
the disease
Stock owners can protect them
selves very easily against this fraud,
| for there Is no specific remedy for the
| foot-and-mouth disease. Since the

never been possible as vet TO tind any

or preventive, and the public nay be

The following article was written
by Geo. L. Walker In Boston Com
mercial and appeared in Salt Lake
Mining Review November 30:
If the United States had been
forced to become a party 10 the
European war this government, by
appealing to the patriotism O; the
people, unqusstionably could have
raised two to four billion dollars OF
war loans In veiy short time. This
amount aud more OF capital and
wealth would have been burned up
destroyed, wasted and lost; but in
spite of it the country would have
survived.
The necessity that now confronts
US is the antithesis OF this We are
called upon to raise a much smaller
aggregate sum and use it as individ
uals to buy securities, which repre- :
sent ownership in the most subStan-
tial and valuable OF American rail-
road industrial and mining proper
ties, from the few European holders
VINO are obliged to SELL aud We ara
required to inance for time 8 sur

able commodity of universal con-
sumption.
1t is every whit as patriotic t.
strain into its Golfers In time of war.
The purchase and financing OF oui

do NOT require national sacrifice;
they offer to those same individual!
who would supply the funds to YOU
resources to uphold the credit, thu

try in time of peace AS 1t is to pou

our standard securities and commod
ities do not require national sacri
fce; they offer to those same Indi
viduals who would supply the fund
to carry on a disastrous war an op
portunity to Increase their persons

defend their own property and tn
country's credit, increase their owl
and the country's prosperity and Ia
the foundation for lasting financia
stability which will give the indus
