A SASoVcIoO Dy CaVo1n.
| Several parties who came IN FROM
Florence last week report that there
mas been considerable work done out
there and that according to the indica.
tlons there are good prospects for ex
tenslve work out in the old camp next
spring and summer.
A party from Pendleton, Oregon.
who are stockholders in the Golden
Gate Placer Mining Co., consisting of
Ciaud Penland, j. T. Lambert. B. Par
lett and Charley Morris, were in at the
Florence camp prospecting on their
Meadow creek group of placer mining
claims. They will do no further work
this year but while out there purchased
and moved some machinery down upon
the claims which will be used in next
years work. All of the stockholders
expressed themselves as well pleased
with conditions at the camp and un.
doubtedly the property will be paw.
ing one in the near future. Consider
able work has been done on this group
of claims the past two years
Rhone, Ridell and Nicodemus are in
there doing work on the placer mining
claims of the Florence Hydraulic
Dredging & Mining Co., a company
financed by Spokane men. They have
claims located on the cite of the old
town of Florence and also have claims
staked above the properties of the
Golden Gate Placer Mining Co., on
Meadow creek. As yet only develop
ment work has been done in completing
bitches and fumes. The work is pro-
crossing rapidly and prospects are fine
for a good season next year as they
will be ready for mining operations by
that time.
G. G. Lavan Of Portland, B. McKurby
of Spokane and Carl Howe, who have
been prospecting around in the Florence
district this summer located some
quartz claims on Miller creek. The
are good and these parties
expect to return next year and do
development work on their
McKurby and Howe are
in Florence yet. Lavan came out to
Grangeville last week and left for
Portland.
8. A. Moon, one of the old miners
who has been out in that district for
a long time is repairing his tunnel and
will open on a vein which has uncover
ed by a cavein. The vein shows good
values and is the same vein which
Moon has hunted for ON his property
for II years.
Johnny Seaburg is driving ahead on
his tunnel on the Lamont group Of
claims and expects to strike the vein in
few days. Mike Cunningham is
sinking his shaft on the Extension"
J. H. Smith is doing development work
on the Montrose which was worked for
some time last year, mill having been
placed on the property. John L.
SHELTON and H. R. Hinkston are pre-
pairing to pump out the old "Bear
Track and to start the mill.
Florence has been neglected by min
ers for several years but it will be a
camp some of these times.
There are a great number who believe
n it as presenting great possibilities
md they will undoubtedly push their
projects thru to success.

Crop Conditions.

According to reports issued
by the bureau of crop estimates,
in co operation with the weather
bureau, United States bureau OF
agriculture, the prospects for
corn, wheat, oats and potatoes
are better throughout the United
States Than the average crop for
the past five years. Sweet po-
tato prospects, however, fall be-
low the average. In Missouri
the prospects are for more corn
and wheat than the average for
the past five years, but for less
oats. perhaps, and sweet pota
toes.
The prospects throughout the
United States and Missouri for
hay, timothy, clover, peaches
and sorghum is less than the
average for the past 10 years,
while it is better for apples.
For grapes in the United States
as a whole the prospects are bet,
ter, hut slightly less in Mis-
souri,. Taking an eight-year
average for tomatoes, blackbar'
ries, strawberries and watermel'
ons smaller crops are reported
while raspberries and canta'
loupes show up better III the
United States, but poorer in
Missouri.
So you see, all in all, 1914 is a
pretty good crop year according
to your Uncle Samuel, and nc
ought TO know.

To Citizens of Wright Co.

Perhaps the custom OF cele-
brating or holding agricultural
shows or fall festivities can be
traced back to the Egyptians,
centuries ago. Osiris was con-
sidered the most popular 81 the
Egyptian gods, and was the god
of agriculture. In his myths he
represented the vicissitudes OF
human life. 1t was their custom
TO celebrate in the fall of the
year, rejoicing over the bounte'
Gus crops and the autumnal close
of a productive season. The
symbol of Old Osiris was an
open eye.
So let us ever be wide awake
and publish to the world our
great results in producing agri-
culture, live stock, domestic and
school exhibits-the fruit of a
years hard labor. Every farm
er in Wright county should plan
to save, provide and bring some
thing to Mansfield TO help US
make this fair a success. As
president of the Young Mems
Business Club | wish to thank
every one who did assist with
our first and second annual fairs
but do request that we all put
forth greater efforts to make our
Third Annual Fair this fall-Oc
tober Is, 16, 1.-THE best ever.
The premium lists will be re-
vised and printed soon, and car
then be had of any merchant in
Mansfield. Get a premium book
and plan to have something on
exhibition at the fair this fall.
Yours for a better fair, a bet
ter Mansfield, and a better
Wright county.
