CROP CONDITIONS GOOD.

GO far, the present season promises to be high
- ly favorable for the farmers. Beginning
with plenty of snow during the early months of
the winter, followed by fair drying weather dur
ing almost the entire month of March, which gave
the farmers a splendid chance to get their ground
into shape for planting and from most reports,
ample time to sow their grain and other early
crops, and now this splendid rain. Just what was
needed to bring the grain up, boost the alfalfa,
start the grass the range and put the smile that
wont come off on the face of every whole-souled
farmer in the country.
The thermometer man is also showing con-
siderable favor to the tillers of the SOIL the tenn
perature has been mild enough so far to start
vegetation and taken altogether, the outlook is
certainly encouraging for successful season.
Reports from some of the largest farmers in
the community show that an increased acreage

HOG CHOLERA is BEING COMBATTED.

THE department of agriculture during the
past year has been conducting campaigns to
control the contagious disease of hogs, known as
"Hog cholera, by means of antihog-cholera Sc
rum and farm guarantees
In every country where these measures were
employed, even though begun after the disease
had continued it's ravages for some time, there
was less loss from hog cholera than in either of
the two preceding years.
Of hogs actually sick when treated, the depart
ments inspectors lost but 25 per cent during the
past summer. Of well hogs in diseased herds,
2S per cent died after being treated, and of hogs
in exposed herds less than per cent died after
being inoculated with the serum.

A thoroughly modern, up.to date
double compartment vertical shaft
was started, 6XS feet inside timber;
timbered with SKIS and Jagged with
2xl2 planking. The plant was equip

reached in July, 1912. A 15-horse
power Fairbanks Morse engine was
then installed, and a small compress
sor, and sinking was continued At
81 feet, station was cut. and from
this level a drift was started to the
southeast along the strike of the ore
body. This drift was carried forward
100 feet from the shaft, all in ore, tor
and bottom. From the 100-foot MARI
in the drift, the vein or bed was cross
cut for total distance of 100 feet
40 feet to the westward, and 120 fee

About three miles southwest of
Phoebe is region of extensive min
eralization, known for many years,
but long neglected, which, since the
advent of the Salt Lake railroad has
come to the front with the largest
producer, in point of tonnage, in The
Phoebe district, the famous Prince
mine. That there is such a mine to-
day, is largely due to the answering
belief in the possibilities of this ter
ritory, and the interchangeable efforts,
OF certain of the pioneers of old
Pi ahe, notably the late William
Lloyd, who lived to see the property
in which he had thus placed his faith
brought forward into the class of big
dividend payers, and who as a matter
of fact, was, with the CODES, directly
responsible for the bringing for

the Prince Consolidated Co. from its
organization until his own death, May

owner of one third interest in the

Company, E. p Gordon a mining man
of great experience and unerring
judgment came to Phoebe Among
other locations made by Gordon was
enc adjoining the Prince mine en- the
south, taken with a view to securing
the extension of the great Prince ore
bed. This claim Gordon called THE
Louise, after his wife He regarded
it as one of his most valuable prop
critics, and held it in anticipation of
the expected development of the
Prince mine. The fortunes of the
Prince and the Louise, were, SO to
speak, bound up together. If the
Prince made good, the future of the
Louise, not only as a saleable piece of
ground, but as an actual and profitable
producer on big scale was assured.

must eventually sweep over Phoebe as

road connecting the camp with the
