TUNGSTEN GROUP At M'KAY IS
IMPROVING WITH DEVELOPMENT

What may turn out to be the rich
est showing of tungsten in the United
States is in course Of development at
Pilot Mountain, ten miles east of Nina
This is the faction of the camp that
has been mentioned repeatedly under
the name of Mckay. which the owners
are beginning TO realize is going to
be proposition OF huge proportions.
The tungsten occurs in Scheelite. in
garnet formation in ten parallel
lodges some OF which are fifty feet
in width. Samples from these lodges
run between ! and 20 per cent and a
fair average is regarded as close to
3 per cent which would make the de-
post one OF rare value. The lodges
also carry gold and silver but the
tungsten is beautiful concentrating
ore than runs on the plates as easily
as gold. This has been demonstrated
by panning where the values peel
right OF like taking clothes off bed,
as one of the locators said Several in
cline tunnels are on the group but the
main workings will be through shaft
sunk on Gun Metal c;aim No. on
that part OF the property known as
the McKay-Ableman group. This shaft
is down IA feet in commercial ore and
developments will be continued with
the object OF proving up the group

ting mill on the ground In antici-

Psrsimmons 40 Food.
f-..&. - 40 .


The only fruit, says 4 bulletin Of
the department Of agriculture, which
equals the persimmon in its value as
food Is the date. Nevertheless many
persons with fine persimmon trees In
their possession are allowing the fruit
TO go 10 waste, either through ig-
norance Of the many uses to which 1t
may be put or through prejudice.
There is saying In the persimmon
country that persimmons are good for
dogs, hogs and 'possums. This. how
ever. Is declared to be gross injustice
to a very valuable product.
One reason for the neglect OF this
fruit Is the mistaken idea that per.
simmons are unfit TO eat until they
have been touched by frost. As a
matter OF fact, much OF the best fruit
Is lost every year because It ripens and
falls to the ground, where, not being
touched by frost, 1t is left to rot. Such
persimmons as are not edible before
frost comes are late variety OF the
fruit. and the reason that they pucker
the mouth IL because they have not
yet ripened. In general, the best fruit
Is that which ripens Just before the
leaves fall.

FEW FOUND TO BE PERFECT
According to Tests Made the Ideal
Husband Seems to Be Some
what Rare Animal. 55'it

In recent husband show each com
petitor was required to do certain
things and answer certain questions
says Pearson's Weekly.
The ideal husband answered all the
questions and did all his tasks without
fail.
Are you the husband every wife
should have? II so:
Can you give the day Of the week
you were married on and it's full date
Do you know when your mother-in-
laws birthday is?
When you left for the office this
morning what kind of dress was your
wife wearing
Can you say offhand what the mar
ket prices of eggs, butter, cheese
meat and bread are?
Do you know the cheapest shopping
places in your neighborhood?
One of the tests the husbands had
was as follows: The wives stood behlnd
a curtain and placed one hand above
it. Each husband was required to pick
out his wife's hand. A good many
failed!
Do you make a point of always
praising your wife when she has
cooked anything more daintily than
usual?
Do you tell her she's the best wife
in the world?
Have you ever acknowledged to her
that you are wrong and she is right
in any argument?
If you can answer these questions
satisfactorily then you can put your
self down as the perfect husband-ac-
cording to this interesting and In
structive test, at any rate.
