SUPPLY OF PROSPECTS
EXCEEDS THE DEMAND

1t seems TO me evident, then. that the
stagnation In mining is not due to the
exhaustion of easily discovered ore
bodies. but 10 the fact that those who
have In the past been the principal pur-
chasers of prospects lavc been driven
from the field. and justly so, while a
sufficient number of buyers of the right
sort have not come forward to take
their place. says an expert writing in
the Engineering and Mining journal
When these arrive we need not worry
about the fate OF the poor old prospec-
tor. lie has done his part. but We are
not doing ours. When we work tho ore
bodies he has discovered he. or they
who come after him, will search for more

haustion Notwithstanding.
The promoters and amateur mining
companie In t1e past were, however. the
principal purchasers OF prospects, Great
ing ready market for any good dis
resulted in great activity in prospecting,
since the demand for discoveries exceed ed
the supply, while now the supply vastly
exceeds the demand. The prosDector is
now left with claims on his hands too
good to abandon, but upon which he
must perform his annual work He has
little time or money to search the hills
and. besides, he is too discouraged to
do SO.
Although such promoters lost most Of
the investors money and did much use
less development. nevertheless every year
several properties passed TO the list OF

BUCHANAN MADE FIND
TWENTY YEARS AGO

One of the large samples of the ore
from the Buchanan strike near Pier
mont that was brought in by E. w.
Hulse was by him turned over TO an
ounces gold. 1892 ounces silver and 500
per cent copper to the ton, says the Ely
ENpositor. Tho sample was the largest
piece Mr.. Hulse could break from the
ledge and he stales that it was weathered
on two or three sides. The first sample
from the ledge which Buchanan selected.
and which was run in Osceola. was re-
ported TO have carried 1901 ounces sill
Yer and t1.2S ounces gold to the ton II
transplres. however. that the real dIscov-
cry OF the ledge was made by Buchanan
about twenty years ago.
At That time Buchanan thought the
green stains on the quartz were caused
by copper solutions. and in those da ys
the more copper proSpector had in sight

time ago Buchanan was engaged In cut
ting fence poles In the foothills near
Plcrmont when lie happened 10 recall his
discovery OF the green stained rock many
years before. He found the place where
the ledge crops and took sample Of IT,
down TO the Pat Keegan ranch in Spring
valley. and there he met Dick Mllick. TO
whom he exhibited the rock. After some
worthlessness OF the sample, Buchanan
told Milick he would give him a one
quarter interest in tho claim If he would
have an assay made. To Arnold MIllick,
son OF DICK, Buchanan. offered another

That such values as the two assays
