THE G.. S. GARCIA
SADDLE SHOP

On the last page will be found the
ad OF the G. s. Garcia Saddle Shop.
Mr.. Garcia has been a resident of
Elko twenty years. To be accurate
1t was on the first day Of June, 1894,
that he landed in Elko, when his totatl
capital consisted Of ninety dollars, a
who'll lot OF energy, a supreme con-
hdence in the future of the town, and
the saddle making trade, we'll learn
ed. He rented a building and set up
In the business, and his goods were
not long in acquiring a reputation. At
ter a few months he was able to hire
an assistant, and his business has con-
tinued to grow until now 1t Is the
largest OF its kind in Nevada, and his
name n goods are familiar not only
Throughout the United States, but be-
yond the seas. To back up this state
ment we might say that he recently
sent a $500 saddle to England, an
other costing $3.50 to Australia, and a
$500 set of harness to Canada, and
scarcely a month passes that he does

beyond the bourne of the United
States. All the east know his goods,
and in fact there is not a state in the
union to which he has not sent some
article Of his manufacture.
Mr.. Garcia keeps continually in his
employ upwards of twenty mechanics,
and his place Of business Is a veri-
table bee hive. His pay roll approx
mates 100000 a year, which is no
small affair as one of the towns re-
sources, for it all finds circulation,
and nearly all of it from the
outside. He now owns not only his
home and place of business, together
with the largest stock of saddles, bits,
spurs, harness, saddle trees, and hand
carved leather goods in this state, but
various other real estate and person

MINING POSSIBILITIES
IN ELKO COUNTY, NEV.

In the line Of mining Elko county
oners abundant opportunities to both
the capitalist and the prospector,
there being at present three live
camps in the northern part of the
county, namely Tuscarora, Gold Circle
and Jarbidge. A brief description of
each district follows:
Tuscarora
Tuscarora situated So miles north
OF Elko, has, in the past produced
some forty millions Of dollars in gold
and silver. First worked for it's ex-
tensive placers, then for its large
bodies Of silver sulphide ores, and
later for its world-famed high grade
gold deposits, it has and still offers
a diversified field of investment en-.
joyed by few mining camps.
In he late nineties, after the in
rush of water in the lower levels and
after the high grade deposits had in a
measure, been extracted from the up
per levels, owing to the inability, at
that time, to economically treat pres
assaying less than $25 per ton, the
mines were shut down and allowed to
fill with water.
Other Camps.
In the immediate vicinity of Tusca-
rora are many we'll developed pros
poets and mines in such camps as
Lone Mountain, Bull Run, Aura and
Edgemont, in which are large bodies
OF low grade ores, which, although
situated some miles from the railroad,
can be worked economically by mod
ern milling practices.
J%arbidge.
Located north of Deeth, first came
to light through the Bourne discover
les in 1908. Since that time extensive
mining developments and milling tests
have brought to light the fact thai the
large deposits of low grade pres may
be handled at a handsome profit by
the combined amalgamation and cy-
anide process. At least one mile is
operating in hat district proving the
above statement.
Gold Circle, north of Golconda, is
another Of Nevada's youngster camps,
that is making good. Steady, quiet
development Is going on and several
million dollars in gold and silver
values, have been blocked out and will
eventually be extracted by the ANAL
gamation and cyanide processes. One
mill, now grinding, is proving that a
handsome profit may be obtained by
handling ores assaying as low as $500

THE TROY LAUNDRY
BEST IN ELKO

On page four will be found the ad
OF the Troy Laundry. the biggest and
most popular in Elko, and In fact the
largest in Eastern Nevada.
This institution enjoys a large trade,
built up on the quality Of its work.
All kinds Of clothing are cared for,
but particular attention is given to
family trade. Mems shirts and col
lars are finished dull and fancy goods
are also given particular attention.
The Troy Laundry is modern in
every particular and once it is tried
it is assured Of steady custom.
Out of town orders are given strict
attention and this trade is solicited.
With moderate prices and high quail
ity of work the customer is sure to be
pleased.
