STATEMENT
 OF CALIFORNIA;
 PLACER RECORD

A statement just Issued by the Unit ed States Geological survey covering the discovery of gold in California and recounting some of the historical data concerning the placer record of that state is of interest to the people of Amer.ca's greatest gold producing center.
 The statement says:
 "The historically important dis covery of gold in California was made in January. 1S4S. at John Sutter's mill on South Fork of American river, near Coloma, a point only ten or fifteen miles southeast of the town of Au' burn.
 Prom 1850 to 1858 the greatest yield was derived from the gravels and the largest annual output for this period was more than $65,OOO.000 in 1852. There was some reaction in 1854, due to previous wild speculation, but production of about $50,000,00O a year chiefly from the placer mines, was maintained up to 1861.
 At first the gold was won chiefly from the gravels along the present streams. Those who first got posses sion of the rich bars on American. Feather and Stanislaus Rivers and some in the smaller streams in the heart of the gold region made at times from $1.0OO to $5.OOO a day. In 1S4S $500 to S700 a day was not unusual luck: but. on the other hand. the in- come of the great majority of miners was far less than that of men who seriously devoted themselves Co trade or even to common labor
 "The gold pan, the rocker the toni. the slu,ce and the hydraulic giant or monitor named in the or der of increasing efficiency were the tools successively used by the miners. Into the rocker and the toni the miner shoveled gravel or dirt rock ing the machine as he poured in the water and catching the gold of- ten with the aid of quicksilver, on rifles set across the bottom of his box. Sometimes q stream was divert ed into a Hume to lay bare the gravel In It's bed so that the miner could get at it
 'In sluicing. the gravel was shovel ed into similar but much larger box through which a stream of water was allowed to run.
 "The hydraulic giant was employed 10 wash into long riffle-set sluices i'm mense quantities of gravel. especially from the higher (Tertiary) deposits, much of which was too lean to wash out by hand. Water was brought for many miles in ditches and fumes from the high Sierra and conducted under great head to a nozzle. from which it was projected with tremendous force against the gravel

Rome special sayS: All previous suggestions by adherents of central empires to defeat foes are surpassed by scheme of Rudolf Keller. editor of Prager Tageblatt. He is said to have made serious proposal that Entente allies be forced to sue for peace by deliberately starving populations of Belgium. France. Poland, Russia and Servia under Teutcn domination Such a proposal, 1t is held here, is clear indication that central empires are getting near end and that their forces ardentiy desire peace. Such project would not force the allies In any way. but would be a crime. for which central empires would have to pay dearly when the day of reckoning came.

F. N. Maude. writing in Contempor- ary Review says that In first stages of Russian retreat from Cracow. Ger mans managed to advance at rate of about five miles a day. but as trans port difficulties created by grand dukes army in its retreat accumulat- ed. rate of German advance fell to one mile and beyond Lemberg 1t died out altogether. Tn subsequent Ger man offensive along Baltic and to- wards Warsaw-Grodno-Petrograd rail- way. Russians could have won a great battle had 1t not been for lack of am munition because of the destruction through German connivance of Ochta arsenal. near Perograd. In any event, however. 1t is believed it was wisest for the grand duke to withdraw Ger mans on into Russia. away from the railways (which alone rendered exc cution of great German strategic com centratlons possible). and far out into the roadless districts of Poland and Russia. where autumn rains turn whole districts into quagmires. while destroying thoroughly while he re- tired the railways and approaches. by which alone the enormous siege how itzers and supplies of ammunition they require can be forwarded.

Mr.. G. T. Thompson,
President Eastern Oklahoma Farm
Bureau,
Muskogee. Oklahoma.

Bureau,
Muskogee. Oklahoma.
Dear Sir
Below quote a letter just received
from Mr.. d. b. Hussey. tie and tim
ber contractor. with office in St
Louis. Mr.. Hussey has for a number
of years been getting out ties in East
ern Oklahoma, and as a result of his
operations in that portion of the
State, Mr.. Hussey has acquired con-
siderable property interest. At the
present time he owns the Busby lTo-
tel at McAlester. His letter is self
explanatory and evidences the value
that he places on the efforts OF the
Eastern Oklahoma Farm Bureau 10
colonize the vacant lands OF Eastern
Oklahoma with more and good far
mers
when in McAlester a few days
ago l learned that there was an pr-
ganization being perfected in Okla
homa for the purpose OF bringing IN
TO Oklahoma a more substantial and
desirable lot of farmers from other
and older States.
II understand that the bankers
and the Industrial Department OF The
NJ, X. & t. Railway were perfectisg
their organization and, as property
owner in Oklahoma, am very much
interested in this movement and au
willing to contribute $50 to help the
movement along.
IT want to call your attention, how
ever, that there is a widespread be-
lief outside the State of Oklahoma
that good and valid title to farm
property in Oklahoma is hard to oh
tain, and. unless you devise some way
to guarantee title. it will be a very
hard matter to get the result desir-
ed"
We have no doubt that when great
er publicity has been given the colon
ization movement that subscriptions
OF a similar nature to that of Mr..
Hussey will be received from other
large property owners controlling
farm lands and real estate through
out Eastern Oklahoma.
Yours truly,
R. w. HOCKADAY,
Industrial Commissioner
