At Middleton, on one of the
switchbacks of the Crown King
scenic branch of the Santa Fe, and
only Il short distance from the
Swastika, it is understood that the
old RcSeto mine is to be rehabil-
itated. This property is we'll known
to have one of the biggest bodies
OF low grade ores in the county.
and it is stated on what appears to
be fairly good authority that the
new ideas IN smelling worked out
by Superintendent Walker of the
Humboldt smeIter. will enable that
plant to handle the DeSoto ores at
4 profit. \ large tonnage can be
taken from this property, and the
Humboldt plant it is said will with
its planned improvements be able
to handle several times the ore it
now handles with very slight in
crease in expense Hence 4 large
tonnage OF ore will be taken from
the DeSoto and shipped to Hum
bOldt daily. which will necessitate
daily trains on the Crown King line
at once to Middleton. and If only

Crown King district is realized by
