TCSCARORA STRIKE is
CAUSING EXCITEMENT

w. C. Davis and j. L. Workman
came down from Tuscarora last even-
ing and are in town today. They are
having assays made on some OF the
rock taken out of the San Juan at
Divide. An average sample taken Wy
Davis from the shipping ore on the
Trimbath lease returned 549.6 OF.
of silver to the ton and $1O.4O in
gold. At the present price OF silver
this is about $275 ore. And this

Mr.. Davis was out to Divide yes
day before coming to Elko. TWO
inning men from Battle Mountain
ad been up to- see the srtike. w. c.

BULLION TAX FROM
GOODSPRINGS MINES

Manager Fred Hale, Jr., of the
Yellow Pine mine states that for the
quarter just ended his company will
pay into the county treasury a bullion
tax of between $4,000 and $1,000.
This represents a net earning of
$2OO,OO0 for the quarter, which will
give some idea of the present output
of this famous lead-zinc mine. For
the year Mr.. Hale estimates that the
county will receive in bullion taxes
from his company alone between
$4,000 and $4,000.
Mr.. Hale states that the Anchor
mine, which is now producing stead
lily, has paid COCO IN dividends
this year up to the present time.
This of course does not represent the
entire net earnings, S the bullion tax
from this mine will also amount to
a tidy sum if the same ratio of pro-
duction is maintained for the year

WORK GOING FORWARD
ON YUBA COMPANY MILL

The Yuba Leasing & Development
company has been pushing work at
a rapid pace on the excavations for
the new mill this week and the task
will have been completed within the
next few days. Several carloads If
material arrived during the week;
the machinery has been shipped and
it is expected that practically all of
the material for the building and
equipment will be on the ground by
the end of next week.
The management c~ontemplates
that the plant will be ready for COM
mission about Sept. Is.
The initial unit of the plant viii
treat so tons of r per day and ar
rangements have been made with
the Phoebe Pacific management to
haul ore over the high line from No.
8 shaft to the mill. A spur rtack
will be built from a point near the
Greenwood shaft across the Ray
mond & Ely dump and along the
grade formerly used by the Phoebe
and Bullionville railroad to the ore
bins which are being erected to the
east of No. 8 shaft.
Superintendent Parker is getting
the mine in shape for a campaign Of
production and will be ready to SEND
ore to the mill by the time the lat
ter is ready to receive it. The work
of Strengthening out some bumps in
the shaft has been completed and a
force of men is now engaged in lay
ing the track on the incline over
which the skip will be operated. The
work of setting up the 100 horsepow-
err engine at the mine is in progress.
In fact everything about the Yuba
works presents a scene of intense
activity.
The payroll of the camp is stead
fly increasing and is beginning to
make itself manifest in trade chan

PERSISTENT WORK
PROVES WILLARD
LARGE BODIES OF HIGH GRADE
ORE IN HONEY BEE AND
OTHERS

T. J. d. Salter has returned from
Lovelock, where he attended a meet
ing of the board of directors of the
Honey Bee Mining company, operat-
ing at Willard. 1t is understood that
the board decided to begin getting
out ore for shipment early this week
and will push production o that
their tunnel is in a sufficient depth
to assure plenty of. ore. Mr.. Salter
brings the information that alls we'll
at Willard and that the persistent
work is proving the district one OF
unexceptional worth. Mr.. Salter
said:
A mill representative has been
over a.. the properties sampling the
district thoroughly with the result
that he has determined the district
as having large quantities OF first
class mill ore. The sampling of the
Honey Bee workings show better
than $25 per ton.
"The Honey Bee tunnel is about
1875 feet ahead and intersects the
west vein. This point shows two
feet of good ore with $25 to $40
per ton gold values. The tunnel
likewise shows 20 feet of mill
ing ore.
"The -Oddie-Malley-Cole lease has
a 75-foot crosscut from the bottom
of the 50-foot shaft. They are now
cutting into the hanging wall, which
shows fine quartz which from pam
nings shows a IS per ton gold con-
tent. They will probably have to
20 Is to 20 feet before cutting the
main vein.
"On the Observation-Disclosures
lease the tunnel is in 20 feet. This
is a drift on the main vein and they
are saving the ore. Foreman Gar
ner sampled two and a half feet OF
this ore, getting $25 per ton return.
Here they are driving for the ore
shoot so rich on the surface. Every
round of holes shows the improve
ment.
"On the Sheepherder's Dream the
leasers are in good ore in the bot
tom of the shaft and pushing work
for additional depth.
"Other workings like the Excel
sior, the Big Thing, the Ruth, the
| Finland and the Fords are showing
the value and Importance of Willard
and show the proof which with ul-
innate development means big pro-
duction and a milling system to han
die the larger quantities of mill
! ore."-Humboldt Star.

BULLION CAMP NEWS

r. NJ. Kellogg of the Dome Mining
and Reduction company of Bullion
and ]. H. Mcmillan, also of that
camp, are in Elko today on business.
When interviewed they said that Bull
lion was quietly. slowly going along
and prospecting. The camp is shipping
its usual tonnage, the record last
summer being three tons and 1t will
be kept up this year. There are ~
or 80 miners at work in the camp.
They are using auto trucks for haul
ing the ore from the camp to the
railroad and the trucks have proved
satisfactory. The haul Is IL miles
from Bullion to Rains siding and
they usually average about Is tons
daily with the two trucks.-EiSo

LARGER MAGNES|TE
PRODUCTION IN 1914

The crude magnesite produced
and sold or treated In the United
States in 1914 amounted to 1928
short tons, valued at $124,22?,
which is 17.2 per cent greater than
the production of this material in
1918, when 1882 tons were produced
valued at ~$77,O56, according to G..
G. Yale and H. S. Gale of the United
States geological survey.
Magnesite is used for making So
dawater gas, refractory bricks, fur
mace hearths. crucibles and other ar
ticles, for digesting and whitening
wood pulp paper, in cement making.
and for various other purposes. The
production is still derived from Cal
ifornia exclusively, the material hav-
ing been obtained principally from
one of six mines in the counties or
Alameda, Santa Cruz, Sonoma and
Tulare.
The value assigned to the domes-
tic production is computed at the
rate of $25 to $50 a ton of ordinary
calcined (not ground) magnesite In
sacks at San Francisco, a rate about
equivalent to $40 to $12 a ton for
the raw magnesite at the same point.
The figure of 81 a ton for the crudo
product at San Francisco has there
fore been taken, which is SO a con
higher than in 1918.
The consumption of magnesite in
the United States in 1914 was about
$4,000 tons calcined and $4,000
tons crude imported, and 1928 tons
OF raw magnesite, equivalent to
about 5000 tons calcined, for the
domestic production, a total equiva-
len. to about 1920 short tons fig
ured as calcined ~magnesite. AS a
whole about 90 per cent of the mag
nestle used in the United States is
imported of which nearly SO per cent
Genes from Austria and Hunga9'
and is Used for making refractory
materials, most of the remaining j
per cent being imported from
Greece.
The discovery of several new de-
posits of magnesite near Towle' ~
placer county, Calf. was eporte
TO the survey early in the year. but
Investigation shows that these are
probably not of large value. Reports
of several other deposits hitherto m
recorded were also received. in

magnesite near Victorville. also In
San Bernardino county. A report on
a deposit near Benson, AriZ., was
aalso received, with samples.

companies on the $500 level have
cleaned out and repaired the old east
rrosscut on their boundary line to
the 41O-foot point. where the work
has reached the station of the 200
level winze. This winze is to be-
used for operations on the 200 lev
ell of the two mines. and will be re-
raired and equipped as soon as posi-
bile. Some timbering was necessary
in the crosscut and repairs were
made to the Con Virginia shaft m

Talks on Thrift
1--WE have been a nation OF
spendthrifts long enough
Roger w. BabsOn.

George D. Dayton, n of the lead
ing business men of Minneapolis, tells
this inspiring story of his success
through saving:
Il left home shortly after 16 years
of age. Before reaching % years
had accumulated $1,000 $4,000 OF
which had been given by f"tEer In
! lieu of a college course, and felt
then that it was safe to marry. AT
that time | was receiving a salary OF
$500 a year, payable weekly. Wife
and | decided that we would not
open charge accounts anywhere
would pay cash for what we bought
and would go withmout things we
could not pay for until We could pay
for them. Furthermore, we decid-
ed that each Saturday we would lay
aside SIS for a permanent investment.
and nothing was permitted to tempt
US from that habit while on a sal
airy.
when we went to Housekeeping
only a part of the house was furnish
ed. Some rooms we're kept closed un-
til we could buy carpets and needed
furniture. Many young couples think
they must establish themselves in
well-furnished apartments in order
to get into society, but we were well
coined into the same refined intelli-
gent circles in which u parents
had always moved, and this without
n pretense of having more than
we possessed.
when about 5000 or so had &C
cumulated a mortgage was bought
for $500 or $500, the balance being
paid as quickly as possible. The in
tlest on each mortgage swelled the
income that much and the salary
T. increased some-until in 1888 we
moved to Minnesota ana invested ali
in land.
- young man has no right to
marry until he has saved something
"a young couple have no right t.
live up to all their income. Every
man owes it to society to save some
thing for his family. Men On sal
aries can do this if they will. but il
requires on the part of both hus-
/ band and wife will power sufficient
to be content and happy while living
inside the income, whatever that is
Mr.. Dayton's experience was re
lated in connection with an interest
ing discussion in the Minneapoli!
Journal brought forth by a letter
written to the paper by a man wht
signed himself "Billpayer."
This correspondent asked how HI
could save part of his salary, sayin,
that his income was a little mor'
than enough for his needs. He hat
repeatedly tried to save, but hat
never made much Roadway. Hi
case is typical of many others.

A WASTE OF TIME

A civil engineer. who was building
a railway in Mexico, vas trying to
show a native how much the new
railway would benefit the country.
"How long does it take you to
carry your produce to market at
PRESENT." he asked.
with a mule it takes three days.
''There you are" exclaimed the
engineer. when the new railway
is in operation you will be able to
take your produce to market and re-
turn home the same day."
Every good. senor." was the placid
reply, "but what shall l do with the
other two days?" = Kansas City
