Deadwood Piacers to Operate Next
Year.


Chas Forman, Jr., of LosAngeles,
and VIM. Weeshed, who are developing
the Deadwood Placers near Dixie, re-
port that they have been carrying on
preparation work this year to be ready
for early spring operation.
1--WE have stripped the overburden,"
said Mr. Forman, exposing pay gravel,
and in the spring we expect to start ac-
tive production in this property as soon
as the hydraulic plant Is installed.
Besides building several new build
ings a number of cabins were put In
condition for use of the men in the
spring. There is considerable machin-
cry on the ground and consignment
on the road. The bitches were repair
ed and put in first class condition.
THE government survey" said Mr..
Forman, from Sites to Elk City
should receive the attention of our high
way commission by the early spring
and work should begin as there will
be large quantities of heavy machin-
cry taken into this section within the
next year or two. With water grade
road to this region miners will be able
to get their machinery and provisions
in at a reasonable price. The exor.
bitant price now paid is almost pro
hibitive and greatly retards the devel
opment of this section; not only the
mining district, but farming land thai
is open for settlement and cultivation.
Mr.. Forman is one OF the most en-
thusiastic miners we have seen comne
from this district, and says he will re
turn early in the spring to start active
operation with full crew-Stites En-
terprise.

Seeks to Bar Gypsy Moth.

The department Of agriculture OF
Wisconsin has determined that the IA
nous gypsy moth shall not invade Wis
consin through the medium of Christ
mas festivities in the Badger state.
Existence and distribution of this
moth in parts of Maine, New Hamp-
shire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode
Island and Connecticut, cause the ship
ment of Christmas trees and greenery
from that infested area into Wisconsin
to act as a menace to the forest and
shade trees of the state.
The department of agriculture, in
consequence, has prohibited the ship
ment, receipt or disposal of coniferous
trees, such as spruce, fir, hemlock,
pine, juniper (white CEDAR, known as
Christmas trees" and parts thereof,
and decorative plants, such as holly
and laurel, known and described as
christmas green or greenery'' from
gypsy moth-infested area of New Eng
land in the following order:
'That no christmas trees and green
cry from the gypsy mOth-infested area
shall be transported, retained or re-
ceived, at auy point within this state,
and that, if so received, they shall be
destroyed upon arrival.
'That christmas trees and greenery'
originating in the gypsy moth-infested
area but reshipped from other points,
shall not be received within this state
and, if so received, shall be destroyed
as provided in the previous paragraph.
THAT in case of doubt in regard to
the origin of said Christmas trees and
greenery' the burden of proof that
such plant material originated else
where than in the gypsy moth-infested
area, shall be upon the owner"
The order is signed by G. 2. Nor
cord, commissioner, and S. B. Fracker,
assistant state entomOlogist.

Horse Holdinq Its Own.

The impression that the automobile
is causing a decided decline in horse
breeding as an industry in Wisconsin
seems to be general, but it is err
roneous, according to statistics COM
piled by A. S. Alexander Of the Wis
,consin agricultural college.
! While it is true that automobiles are
increasing in numbers and that about
,Il2,000 will be licensed in Wisconsin
this year, horses also are increasing in
the state, says Mr.. Alexander.
January l, 1906 horses numbered
595,932 head, valued at $91.65 each,
and on January 1, 1916 they had in
creased to $4,000 head valued at 1924
each, or a total increase Of 116,06S
horses worth 81, 439, 24S. During the
same period, mules in Wisconsin de-
creased in number 1885 head but the
5000 left, increased in value S43. 16
each. In 1915 the horses numbered
10000 SO that there has been an in
crease of 1000 during the year.
The increase in horses throughout
the country is the more remarkable
when it is remembered that hundreds
of thousands of horses have recently
been exported for war purposes, while
importationS of horses for breeding
have practically ceased.
Improvement is also noticeable In
the quality of our breeding horses
Purebred sireS have increased from
LII in 1915 to 1,S14 in 1916, and the
percentage OF purebred sires to grade
and scrub sires in the state is now
59.2, compared with So in 1916, anG
purebred SireS were enrolled.
Nineteen other states have followed
the example set'by Wisconsin 1906 by

BADGER SOLDIERS

Bill Passed by the Legislature in
Special Session.
MAIL BALLOT MADE LAWFUL
Students, Travellers and Workmen
Away From Home on Election Day
Given Privilege by
Second Act.

Madison.-Two bills, one permitting
Badger troops near the border to vote
if they are there on November z, and
the other enabling students, travellers
and wOrkmen away from home to vote
by mail became laws after they were
passed by the legislature at it's special
session and were signed by Governor
Phillip.
The legislature was in session only a
day and a half and adjourned after at
tending to the business for which it
was called by the governor.
The bills both emanated from the
governors office and had his support
The measure permitting soldiers on the
border to vote was introduced by AS
semblyman E. A. Everett, Eagle River.
The other bill enabling students, trav-
cling men, mechanics and all other
voters away from home on election day
to vote by mail in their home precincts
was presented by Assemblyman Carl
Hansen, Manitowoc, and fathered by
him.
The Everett bill passed the house
opposed by only three members, Ed
wards Johnson and MCGOWAN, final
vote being 73 to 3.
The Hansen bill extends the time for
printing ballots and filing nomination
papers and gives other aids to county
clerks and election officials 1t permits
anyone not registered and outside Of
his precinct on election day to file an
affidavit, declaring his right to vote,
with his election officials. The affida-
Wit must be signed by two freeholders
of his precinct. Then he is registered
and a ballot sent to him, which he
votes and returns on election day and
it is to be presented to the proper cleo
ton officials by one of the two free
holders.
The Everett bill applies only to men,
bers of the National Guard in the field.
Under it the secretary of state is to
send messengers with ballots to be
voted by soldiers. These ballots will
be blank for local offices, but lists of
all candidates for these will be fur
nished by county clerks so that soldiers
will be able to write in their choice.
The secretary of state representa-
tives are to return the ballots to his
office, where they will be opened by
the state canvassing board, but in such
manner as to maintain secrecy of the
ballot. The tickets win be taken from
the envelopes without reading and the
envelopes, which bear the names of
the voters, are to be destroyed before
the ballots are counted. The returns
are to be certified by counties to the
county clerks and then added to the
total vote in the counties by the re-
spective county boards of canvassers.
The bill bears clause providing that
Illegal voters are to he returned to the
state and punished.

Japanese Iron Ore Resources.

Actuated by the greatly increased
demand for iron and steel, the Jap
anese department of agriculture and
commerce has been investigating
sources of ore supply, and according
to a report issued on the subject the
main source Of ore supply within the
empire proper is the Kamaishi mine,
the deposit of magnetic ore there be-
ing estimated at 35,000,000 tons. DepOs-
its Of similar ore are estimated to to-
tai between 100000 and 100000 tons
from mines in the provinces Of Riku-
chu, Echigo, Iwaki, IwashirO. KoZuke,
YamatO, Harima and Mimaska. De-
posts of red-iron ore. estimated to to-
tai about 100000 tons, are. located
in the provinces Of Echigo, Rikuchu,
Tosa, Hyogo, Rikuzen and Izumo.
Brown iron ore deposits, believed to
total 100000 tons, bring the esti-
mated aggregate total to about 10000.
900 tons for the islands alone.
