OVER
PARADISE VALLEY

Sam Flynn, secretary of the Ma
tional Buckskin Mines company, is
back from a successful and interest
ing trip to Paradise Valley. Flynn is
full of praise for the thrift and en-
terprise of the business, agricultural
and general ranching proof of that
rich and fertile valley. He says that
this American Eden is one of the
grandest and richest expressions of
Mother Nature. That in all his life
he never met better or more pros
porous people than these Paradisan
farmers, cultivators of the soil, bust
mes men and cattle and sheep rangers.
Here is where amidst natures bounti-
full supply women, men and children
are happy, healthy and splendid ex-
hibit of the vigor that comes with
gaining wealth from Mother Earth.
This field Flynn pronounces most
edifying and instructive.
The Grigsby Mine.
While on this tour Flynn also visit
ed the Grigsby mine at Poverty Peak.
Here he viewed a large body of ore
which in time will make great for
tune for Grigsby, Herbert, ct al. The
mine is free milling gold property
This class of ore is of large body and
shows for permanence. In addition to
the big proven body of high class mill
ore the owners get grade of ore
which is rich in native gold. Some of
these exhibits are like beautiful
constellation in its shining and twink
ling effect. This native gold is from
pin points to the size of yellow corn
kernels, and as whole asserts the
richness of the property.
Flynn predicts that with adequate
development this mine district will
prove of staple Importance to Para
disc Valley, for south of this proper
ty are the VanZandt copper discover
les 70 rich in promise and resourceful
to the point of meriting full develop
ment.
Natiinal Buckskin.
While in the valley the secretary
of the National Buckskin Mines com
pany also received reports from the
manager of the property in which
Flynn and Martin are so largely in
terested and which under pressure of
tunnel work is showing so finely.
This report is to the effect that in
driving the deeper tunnel ahead that
the workers are making good progress
for interseeting the vein they are
driving for and that the blind vein
they are approaching is throwing
flood of water and showing a miner
alization which in full indicates
large body of workable ore.
He also says that it is reliable as
coming from a recent visitor to the
property that the Buckskin National
the Bell-Stauffer property, is proving
stronger and richer than ever. The
high grade ore taken from the south
drift will average $40 per pound and
that the drift for over 400 feet along
the trend is in rich ore.
The situation at Buckskin is of
superior kind and in reality Flynn
prophesies a rich production from the
district with fortunes for many CLEAN
cd from those mountains.
The optimistic Flynn says that
Buekskin, Poverty Peak and Para
disc are a good legitimate bet for
those who will play the game of win
ming through natures chance or game
to gain riches from Mother Eearth.
With the development of these two
mining points this man Flynn pre-
diets a wholesale increase in land
values and a largely increased mar
ket for farm and ranch products, with
higher prevailing prices for farm com
modities that could not be secured
without this mine development. I'm
der this impetus he predicts an in
crease in the value of land of at least
100 per cent and many unused acres
now brought under cultivation. He
also predicts that these mining re-
source developments will inereasep
population, make new markets and
cause railroads to be built in there for
cheaper traffic and that the big in
centive for this is the development of
the gold, silver and copper deposits
in those mountains and foothills sur
rounding the rich and bonutiful Par
adise Valley.
In candid sense Flynn SAYS genu-
inc friendship is manifested by the
Paradise farmers, ranchers and cattle
and sheep men towards the latent
mining enterprise of that section.
Thus Sam Flynn is optimistis and en-
thusiastic after seeing Paradise.
