HIGH GRADE ORE IS
 BEING DEVELOPED

CORONA, Aug. 22-The recent important new discovery of high grade ore at the Mother Lode copper mine. near Mccarthy, is in the east crosscut on the 200foot level, which is now being developed as rapidly as possible by the driving of two drifts running north and south and an up- raise following the ore vertically. This work so far has proved the ore to the extent of 100 feet horizontally and 50 feet vertically, and the ore is improving both in quality and width each foot driven The fact of this discovery being found at the extreme end of the deepest level at a depth Of over 450 feet below the surface gives il all the earmarks of a large body of high grade ore, and Superintendent W. E. Hancock anti cipates its continuance in depth for 2OO-foot level As soon as circum- stances will permit a dipping in cline will be started to follow it in that direction. This discovery has infused new life and energy into all employees at the mine, and the min CTS employed on it are all wing with each other as to who can pro- duce the most ore in each shift
 With the limited amount of ground as yet opened up the mine is now producing about ten tons of this ore per shift, which is immediately sacked and sent down to the lower terminal of the tramway ready for transportation to the railway imme- diately snow falls and they are able to use the sleighs.
 The 100-foot level has also opened up a good body of ore between it and the 50-foot level, which ground they will commence to stope in the winter and from which it is expected to get some 15 cars of good shipping ore.
 The sinking of the vertical two compartment haft wi! be carried on as fast as circumstances will per init, as when this reaches the lower ore bearing zone at a depth of 500 feet the value of thy mine should be enhanced to Ut least three times what it stands today.
 From present indication etaoinnn
 From present appearances the com ing winter promises to be the ban her year for the largest shipments of Mother Lode ore, and should the price of copper go up again or even maintain it's present standard they can keep the runners of the sleds hot in getting out the ore they now have in sight.
 The de- ielunment work ii both the Marvellous and Pittsburg tunnels, which are now joined together by upraises, amounts to more than 5000 feet of opens cuts, raises, crosscuts, drifts. etc The results of this work are SnpNn III superintendent Han cocks estimate of 100000 tons of ore in sight extracted but not ship ped, which runs from Is to 60 per Ce}u copper At the present market Trirt O. copper this ore would have a valuation of about $7,000,O00 Super intendent Hancock says:
 "The' foregoing figures may be re- lied upon as a very conservative es- innate of the Mother Lode ore re- serves, and l was the other day complimented by MT. stephen Birch upon the estimate I made last year, which he said comes very near the tonnage and values worked out by Mr, Henry Krumb, who is well known as the most conservative min ing engineer in the United States when it comes to estimating the value of mining property for a prospective buyer'

USING CRUSTS.

It is often a question, in making sandwiches, what to do with the crusts trimmed from the sandwich es after they are spread with the filling. If they are broken up and used with tomatoes to make a dish of scalloped tomatoes they will give a delicious flavor to the dish. Of course, if the filling is jelly or some sweet the crusts may be used for a bread pudding.

Russia and Austria. This book deals
with conditions and treatment of the
Jews in the various European coun-
tries. The statements in the book
have been verified and it is not in

John H. Worst, for twenty-one
years president of the North Dakota
Agricultural college at Fargo, stated
that "big business wanted to control
the college and if he was removed as
the head of the institution it would
be- through the efforts of the "inter-
ests." What happened? DR.. E. F.
Laid today heads the school. Now if
there is an educator in the entire
United States that "big business"
does not like, it is Prof. Laid. He
has fought practically every monopoly
in the United States-trusts who
wanted to foist impure food stufrs
upon the people CT North Dakota in
order to make bigger earnings. He
has made them all come to time.
Now he is president of the college.
Still the charge is made that "big
business" controls the destiny of the
agricultural college. It is to laugh.

concerned. Military training is an
addition to a young mans education

In addition to the training along mill

boys will attend the national encamp-
ment in the east. All expenses are
paid by the government, and in ad-
dition each man is paid a small
amount of spending money each day
while in camp. Company X needs
more men-and needs them right now.

We propose to start something in
Congress, said well known and active
Southern member of Congress, unless
President Wilson comes across and keeps
his promise relative to rural credits.
When the currency bill was before Con-
gress the friends of rural credits wanted
to put this proposition on the admins
tration's banking bill. We had the votes
to do it and the President knew it. We
thought the farmers should get some
thing as well as the bankers. The
President did not want this amendment
on, but he told several members of Con-
gress interested, including myself, that
if we would not tack rural credits on
the currency bill, he would take hold
and help US get through the rural credits
proposition. Afterwards he got cold
feet and the rural credits proposition
was smothered in the last Congress.
This session we are going to take no
chances and if attempts are made to de.
lay and to prevent this legislation, then
you can take it from me there will be
