From Thorne

A trainload of sheep, consisting OF
10 cars, was landed in Thorne during
the week. They originally came
from Oregon, from which State they
were herded a considerable distance
through the open country by way OF
Westwood to Fernly, New, where
they were entrained for Thorne. The
reason for this journey is that they
are all ewes and will lamb this month
and "a warmer climate than that oil
Oregon was sought, The owner OF
the sheep is John Minnabary, well
known in Hawthorne and friend OF
p. Nicolas. The sheep are now in
the vicinity of Ryan canyon.
The ladies of Thorne have initiated
an inextravagant pastime which is
entirely original. Since the advent
of warm weather the feminine com
munity may be seen each evening
ting in circle on the desert sand,

Ore Shipments
Resumed at Luning

A warm sun snd winds have com
bined to put the wagon roads near
Luning in fair condition and ore
again is being hauled from various
mines and leases in the district for
shipment to Salt Lake smelters.
In New York canyon, which is the
most active part of the district and
is especially favored by lessees be-
cause the copper ore runs high and is
found near the surface, II 50ton car
loads are awaiting the teams, which
commenced hauling on the sixth of
the month. The Neversweat has Sc
ven cars of which two cars were
mined by the owners, Watson and
Bachman. Two cars of lessees ore
are from the Electrolytic and "20c
Copper" claim, the others from the
Neversweat. Paddy O'Connell, leasing
on the Havana, has one car and
Ahearns and Kruger have two ears
on the Mary, and one car on the Mas
todon. The Havana, Mary and Mas
todon are owned by Fl. B. Lind of
Goldtield and associates.
The Mayflower, of which L. l.
Patrick of Goldheld is manager, will
send out five cars, of which four are
from the lease of f. NJ. Manson of
the Western Ore Purchasing Co.,
and one car from the g. w. Spauld-
ing lease, Ed McMetry is shipping one
car from Vacation mine, owned by
DR.. +. A. Plymire.
Values range from per cent to l2
per cent copper and small values ia
silver and gold. Expressed in dollars
and cents, the $50 tons probably will
average $50 and should net $40 per
ton. Shipments will be augmented
soon by the addition OF the Luning
Idaho in the north end of the district
which is building wagon road to
get to the ore and the Nevada Cham
pion. The last named mine is being
worked by the company and has con-
tracted 10000 to the Western Ore
Purchasing Company.
New leasers are coming in daily
and they are digging iato showings
that have laid idle for years. There
is good opening here f0r leasers
yet. provided they are good "chior-
iders. Gazette.

The following self explanatory let

he is showing in behalf of the west

should be successful bureau of mines
literature will find II ready welcome
not only from prospectors but every
one connected with the mining in
dustry:
Department of the Interior,
Bureau of Mines,
Washington, Feb. IL. 1916.
Hon. Key Pittman, United States
Senate, Washington, D. G.
My dear Senator:
Replying to your letter of January
29th, regarding bureau of mines
bulletins for prospectors:
The bureau has had under consid-
Grafton the publication of bulletin
that would be of special interest aud
value to prospectors. There are a
number of prospectors' hand books
on the market. but it is possible that
bureau of mines publication could
be made more thorough, and perhaps
more practicable, than any of these.
Your letter suggests again the fa-
vor with which a publication on that
subject by the bureau of mines will
be welcomed by the prospectors and
miners in the field; and l shall take
up with the chief mining engineer of
the bureau the question Of the prep
aration of such a publication for
issuance at us early date as may be
practicable.
