Boys pig clubs have proved very
popular in the work Of the Univer-

time, weigh them. and put as many
pounds of pork as possible on them
in six months. The Agricultural
Extension service furnishes Circu-

Shipments from the Jumbo Exten-
sion mine continue at the rate of
about $50 tons daily and the ore
handled recently has been uniformly
of good grade, averaging well above
$50 per ton. During a period of
10 days or two weeks lately the ore,
at this rate of production, averaged
around SAP per ton, but 1t is found
desirable to mix material of lower
grade with the ore from the main
Slopes, in order to market this
product and avoid handling it
second time, and the average value
of the ore is not expected to con-
tine for any considerable period at
that figure.

Lessees working block of
ground on the Silver King proper
ty have lately exposed rich ore
in considerable quantity and have
several carloads awaiting ship
ment. The two properties, side
lining each other, can best be
worked through a single deep shaft
and as one property. According
to present plans the two proper
ties will be merged under the own
ership of a company to be known
as the Hornsilver King Mining
company. This will, it is said, make
the strongest mining enterprise in
the Hornsilver district.
DR.. Elftman, who is the COM
pany's general manager and engi-
neer, has just purchased a 40
horsepower hoist. which is being
moved to the mine and will re-
place the 15-horsepower hoist that
has been used heretofore. An air
compressor will be added to the
equipment shortly and development
work will then be pushed with all
possible vigor The main shaft will
be sunk another 200 feet, to a to-

regarded as certain that sufficient
water will be made available to

Activity is reported throughout
the Hornsilver district, with sub
stantial prospects for steady pro-
duction from several properties.

the Orlean property, has lately

CONSOLIDATION IN HORNSILVER
TO- involve DEEP development

Negotiations were concluded
late this week for the purchase by
DIR. A. H. Elftmsn and a syndi-
cate of eastern men, of the con-
trolling interest in the Silver King
Mining company of Hornsilver,
formerly owned by the Champ dor
French Gold Mining company. The
syndicate making this purchase
controls the Horn Silver Mining
company, with properties in the
same district. The latter company
owns four patented claims that
were among the earliest locations
made in the district, and the Silver
King company owns two claims ad-
joining this property.
A shaft was sunk some time ago
by the Horn Silver Mining COM
pany to a depth of $40 feet and
lis so situated that the Silver King
ground can be developed to good
advantage through it. In earlier
years both properties produced
some high grade shipping ore from
workings near the surface. Recent

the mine, with the workings of the
Merger Mines company. This will
benefit both properties. in affording
better ventilation. The air has not
yet started to move through the con-
nected workings, probably owing to
the great distance to the Grizzly
Bear shaft, through which the Mer-
ger company is working, and in part
to the fact that there is little differ
ence in the elevation of the Grizzly
Bear and Jumbo Extension shafts.
Bulkheads will be placed in some
of the Jumbo Extension workings,
in the effort to start the air, and it
is regarded as probable that the

MERGER MAKES
AIR CONNECTION
BETTER VENTILATION ASSURED
BY CONNECTING WITH
JUMBO EN-

From its north cross-cut in the
Sunflower claim, the Merger Mines
company has driven raise that
has connected with the lowest level
of the adjoining Jumbo Extension
mine, and as a result of this work
the ventilation will be greatly i'm
proved and the Merger company's
operations will be greatly facilitated.
An unusual feature in connection
with the opening of a passageway
for air through the two mines is the
failure of the air to move in either
direction up to the present time,
but this will be overcome by plac-
ing bulkheads in some of the Jumbo
Extension workings and the air
will probably be started one way
or the other within a day or two.
The north crOss-cut of the Mer-
GUl', in the shale and following
course near to and parallel with the
east side-line of the Velvet claim of
the Jumbo Extension. has reached
point directly east of the main
slopes of the latter, in the Velvet
claim, and approximately in line
with the dip of the shale contact
ore-channel in the latter ground.
Heretofore the work has been
in the shale, but a short distance
below the latite-shale contact, and
raises have been driven at intervals
to prospect the contact zone, but
have not been extended into the
hanging wall country. The work is
now approaching the contact zone
proper and in future it will be pos
sible to prospect this territory in
a more thorough manner and to
extend the development work above
and beyond the silicified channel
that marks the contact of the latte
and shale.

been demonstrated that the lower
grade prOuct of the Florence mine
could be treated successfully by flo
tation it was generally supposed
that this ore would remain dead
asset, as no means had been dis
covered by which it could be made
to yield profit. In common with
other mines here the Florence has
exposed ore containing copper and
other base elements, in association
with it's ore of higher grade. Tests
have demonstrated that a high ex-
traction can be made from this ore
by flotation, and within the next
ten days the company's new flota-

at depth of 500 feet and it's op-

tention by reason of the promising
character Of the ground and the
many good ASSAYS that were OBJ
tanned in this territory shortly be-
fore work was suspended last year.
Superintendent Morris has kept
the shaft and workings in good
condition during the period of in
activity and will now proceed to
extend the north drift on the 800
foot level for a considerable dis
tance.
some ground of good appearance
was penetrated and work will later
be resumed in this territory, on
the S0O-foot level. while it is also
planned to resume the work north
and west of the shaft on the 700
foot level. Plans are being made
to start work shortly, upon a
broad scale, on the Vulture prop
erty at Wonder, owned by the New
York ORC corporation, which also
controls the Goldfield Orc.
The Vulture group adjoins the
Jack Pot property. which in :urn
adjoins the Nevada Wonder and is
being worked by the latter COM

new EAST DRIFT
IN GREAT BEND
MAIN SHAFT HAS BEEN CON-
NECTED WITH BOTTOM OF
OLD INCLINE

New ground is being opened in
the Great Bend property, at depth
of about 24O feet and east of the
main shaft The raise from the
4OO-foot level, which was started
with the object of connecting with
the old winze from the incline
shaft workings, has been discon-
tinued for the present or until
the work progresses further on
the upper level.
The results obtaintd in raising
indicated that the ore-shoot found
on the 400 level was not the one
exposed in the winze by the early
lessees, and it was decided in
view of the upfavorable air con-
ditions, that better results could be
obtained in seeking this ore on
the old level that was driven to
connect the main vertical shaft
with the bottom of the original
incline shaft.
This connecting level has nov
been cleared and from a point near
the bottom of the incline shaft
a drift is being extended to the
east. with the object of locating
the ore-shoot found by the lessees
and of continuing to the point
nearer the Daisy boundary where
ore of good grade was mined in
two leases. The drift on the 400
foot level. which has been driven
over 400 feet. will be kept open
and in shape to resume work in any
direction that may be justified by

At a depth of nearly 900 feet
the Jumbo Junior company has
driven along the hanging wall of
the main Jumbo Extension vein for
a distance of about so feet from
the boundary, where it took up
the work started in Jumbo Exten-
sion ground. The drift is SHOW
ing some quartz and a cross-cut
will be extended from point
near the present face of the drift,
for the purpose of prospecting the
vein, while the main drift will be
continued to develop the ground
farther to the northeast.
Conditions in this territory are
regarded as decidedly promising,
as many seams of good ore have
been found in the vein on the 780-
