MAKE ORDER, NEATNESS
AND BEAUTY THE RULE
ON YOUR FARM.

A good many years ago I spent
four years in New York State.
was II, and it was my first trip
North. recall the whole jour-
ney with pleasure but remember
most wildly the beautiful farms
Iof New Jersey and Western Penn
Isylvania-the meadows, the neat
lstranght fences. the well-kept
stock, the painted houses, the big
red-roofed barns. l was familiar
with Southern farms: much of nv
life had been spent on them. I
knew their general air of dilapi-
dation-their implanted houses.
their unkept fences, their ugly
outhouses-a corn crib here, a
stable there, chicken house yon-
der. smokehouse. a pig pen.
milk house somewhere else-their
whole air of "out at the elbow"
and "down at the heel" / hard
~ knew that farms could be
moved and painted and white
washed. so seldom had seen we'll
cared for farms.
The New York farms were like
those of New Jersey. i used to
take long walks to the top of the
hills (they were really mountains)
and look at the little farms spread
out in the valleys. The panorama
looked like a checkerboard; green
meadows separated by straight
fences, white houses. comfortable
looking barns. orchards. vine
yards, bardens. l walked about
these same farms in the winter.
and even then they looked neat
and well cared for. One could
imagine their cellars filled with
apples and potatoes, with iellies
and preserves and canned vege-
tables. One thing l especially
noted: there were no half-fed
cows and hogs and horses stand
ing about in the rain and cold.
Everything was, presume. under
shelter; the horses that l saw
hitched to vehicles were fat and
well eroomed.
Ever since then it has been my
ambition to see our Southern
farms look like those Of the New
York valleys. And it can be
brought to pass if each one of us
will set to work upon his own
farm. If we. don't want to be
criticised let us remove the cause |

LEARN TO SWIM.

a swimming director in an east
ern Y. NJ. C. A. has addea another
to the list Of good points about
swimming. He says that it is
cure for the blues because it keeps
the swimmer so busy that he
doesn't have time to think about
his troubles. On that theory, he
is hunting out the men who don't
know how to swim and giving
them free lessons. AS soon as a
man becomes proficient enough to
swim seventy five feet, he gets 50.
That a mighty good scheme
and one that many people ought
to take to heart in these warm
days when the swimming is so
good. OF course, the ability ia.
swim and to float is indispensable
for saving life from drowning.
But it has other advantages like
resting weary nerves, driving
away Encouragement. building up
bodily health and vigor.
Everyone who knows anything
about swimming recognizes it as
one of the most delightful and
healthful of sports. Let's be
wise and teach the youngsters how
to swim while they re little. And
then capture the erown-ups who
have missed half their life and
them in the joys of swim
ming. Most of them will love it
and bless the day that gave them
their first real confidence and
pleasure in the water, whether it
was in the ocean or a lake OK the
"old swimmin' hole" in the
creek, or only in the tank of a

SHELTER NOW
BEING BUILT

Grover A. Youngs, who is extcn-
sively interested in the Frieberg
district, and is manager of the
company formed recently to erect
a smelter in that district was in
the city a few days ago on his
return from Frieburg to San Fran
cisco.
Mr.. Youngs says the machinery
for the new plant is arriving and
If everything works out as plan
ned it will be ready for commits
sion some time next month. The
big truck owned by the company is
on the road almost constantly and
makes the trip between the mine
and Phoebe, a distance of IS miles
in about IL hours.
1t is the intention of the COM
pany to purchase another truck and
this will be done while Mr.. Youngs
is in the coast city. Mr.. Youlgs
is going to bring his family back
with him and they will be located
at the mine.-Pioche Record.

SULPHUR PROPERTY

Continued from Page Onel
cross-cuts have shown the high
grade material to lie between we'll
defined walls and to average fully
16 feet in width.
The sulphur broken heretofore
in this ground has not been of the
best grade, owing to faulty methods
of mining that permitted the in
clusion of wall rock. A liberal
sampling of the great vein or de-
posit, across from Is to II feet,
has indicated that material averag-
ing we'll above 80 per cent pure can
be broken for this entire width ard
shipped without sorting. Some of
the samples over this width have
given as high as 90 per cent sui
phur. The material can be mined
at an exceedingly low cost and the
property is only a few hundred
yards from the railroad.
Engineers employed by the sui
phur company have estimated the
quantity of available sulphur of
commercial quality at 5000 tons,
a large part of which is on dumps.
Crude sulphur is now worth from
$50 to $32 per ton. f. O.. b. docks,
and can be laiN down in San
Francisco for IS per ton. The re-
fined product brings far higher
prices. in some forms as high as
$50 per ton.
The Los Angeles company will
proceed to develop it's two proper
ties at Cuprite in a thorough man
ner and If a sufficient tonnage is
made available it is probable that
retorts will be installed at the
property. The sulphur from the
Cuprite properties will be retorted
at San Francisco and shipped to
the Hawaiian Islands to sugar re-
fineries. the Japanese supply hav-
ing been cut off by the scarcity of
bottoms. due to the war.

RECORD MADE
FOR HAULING

Roy Sorenson and Fred Piehl,
leasers on the Addison, were the
holders of a contract for the dis
posal of their zinc, which expired
on July Is. They had taken out a
carload of high-grade ore and sought
the services of a truck to haul their
product to the railroad before the
late of the expiration of their con-
tract.
They were absolutely. unable to
secure transportation of any kind,
as every truck, team, catterpiller
and every other method of trans
portation we're signed up for a
number of weeks ahead, and the
delay would mean a net loss of
about 5000. to them if they did
not get their ore to the railroad on
time.
They finally enlisted the services
Of Charles H. Nelson and Ben Strom-
er. owner of a six-ton White truck,
and were assured that they could
have the use of the truck for two
days only. The distance from the
Addison to the station at Roach,
which is their shipping point, is
1917 miles. 1t seemed almost i'm
possible to accomplish the feat
within the allotted time, but tho
boys all dug in and made a try
at it. They hauled day and night
and at the end of 41% hours of
elapsed time they had carried the
55 tons of ore to the station at
Roach. They completed seven
round trips, making a total of 221
miles, with an average load of eight
tons on a six-ton truck for half
that distance. The ore vas loaded
onto the car and the contract COM
piled with.-Goodsprings Gazette.

foot level to be 800 feet along.
This drift was extended to the
367-foot point. The work on this
level shows the vein to be very
wide and this drift has been driven
on a quartz on the hanging
wall side. Cross-cuts were run to
and penetrating the foot-wall. The
first cross-cut was driven 20 feet
from face for a distance Of 40
feet. Another was run 100 feet
back from the first cross-cut a dis
lance of 81 feet, getting we'll int,
the country rock. This cross-cut
showed the vein to be 40 feet wide,
containing low values.
At a point 267 feet in the drift
from shaft a large body of quartz
was encountered, picked samples OF
which assayed up to $25 in gold
per ton. A raise was driven at
this point for a height of 100 feet,
all in quartz. The values discontin-
ued 10 feet above the drift. Pros
pecting in the drift below this raise
showed no values. Finding no
values, bad air and high cost of
running the raise, it being neces-
sary to timber it closely, it vas de-
cided to discontinue running it.
The work on this 3OO-foot level
has been very expensive and tedious.
The ground is composed of a swell
ing, moving, ~decomposed and wet,
fine-grained andesite, which neces-
states spiling, bridging both caps
and posts and driving tagging. IN
cessant relieving and replacing the
timbers is compulsory.
The evident improverishment of
this portion of the vein at this
depth, coupled with the above ex-
ceedingly expensive obstacles, aus
ed the management to decide to
temporarily discontinue all work en-
this level. Active WORK was started
ir cleaning out the workings On
the 235-foot level. These workings
connect with a cross-cut from the
old incline shaft at the 300-foot
level. This level has been cleared
for 100 feet and has just entered
the 85-foot cross-cut extending from
the incline shaft.
BY cleaning out this drift an en-
c%ouraging body of quartz was found,
containing some small seams assay
ing up to sos per ton. 1t is the
intention to raise on these seams
as soon as air connection is made
with the incline shaft. The cross
cut to the incline shaft will be
cleaned and the old east drift put
in working shape so the 4O-foot
winze, said to be sunk in $40 ore,
can be located. This east drift
will then be extended toward the
Daisy lines and possibly connected
with the workings from the old
Lockhart shaft.
The old unreliable maps of the
company show a shaft sunk on the
parallel vein about 40 feet south
of our working shaft, from which
high-grade was supposed to have
been shipped. There being no
workings south of the shaft above
the 400 level, it was decided to
cross-cut in that direction on the
100-foot level. This cross-cut was
driven to the sidelines of the pro-
perty, a distance of III feet, but
failed to encounter anything Of
value.
The new work decided upon is
away from the swelling, moving
ground so expensive to work and is
entering the mineralized zone that
we know has produced profitable
