Physical and Mental Effects of Right
and Wrong Feeding" He has had a
great deal of experience in caring for
infants and unde; stads the import
ace of proper feeding.
His important point was that the
mother should not give the child food
at any and all times, nor should she
give candy and other rich sweets. This
develops a false appetite and the
child, instead of gaining control of
his appetite, loses the control and
Graves harmful things. This child,
when he becomes a man, is an easy
victim to all the harmful things which
destroy body and soul.
The Imperial Valley College Wom-
ems Club makes its first appearance
before the public in its exhibit at thae
Christian church, as feature of the
Better Babies campaign now being
carried on throughout the country.
The Holtville members of the club
have prepared some impressive charts
showing the extent nd causes of in
FAINT mortality. Ell Centre added to
Holtville's work a map showing how
many states might be populated by
the number of babies dying in ten
years, and representation of the
number Of bbies dying in Washing
ton, D. c.
+ The Imperial members worked on
the subject of prenatal care and show
bv pretty pictures the importance OF
right conditions for the mother, and
the need of feeding the babies in Ma
ture's way.
| Ell Centro's part of the exhibit con-
! tains two drawings by high school
/ bows which give important lessons.
One is a copy by Will Apple of a pic
ture of adenoids iii one of the Chill
dren's Bureau pamphlets. 1t shows
plainly how denods prevent child
from getting proper supply OF arr.
Another drawing is copy by Cecil
Morrison of a cartoon showing "Ba-
bvs Foes" Poverty, Ignorance, Poor
Food Intemperance, etc, waglng war
on a little child.
! The war against these foes is shown
in chart portraying the life history
of the fly. which is now recognized
as ore of baby's worst enemies. An
other series of pictures shows how a
child on cleas milk susrpasses one
made sick by impure milk.
The idea of pure milk is given great
emphasis by the unique exhibit of the
Heber members of the club. This is a
group of dairy models worked out by
Mrs. A. G.. Young. One shows san.
itary dairy for places requiring
barns to be enclosed; another shows
q kind of sanitary dry adapted to
the warm climate of Imperial Valley,
while the last shows the rntidy, I'M
clean kind which is sometimes seen
here. 1t is we'll worth while to study
l these models and to find out which
: kind represents the place your milk
comes from.
A table under the wall charts holds
several smaller objects, each with {
lesson rgarding baby's welfare, ano
many magazines and pamphlets, some
e Of which are for distribution. The cluf
i wishes to call attention to the fact
that the Children's Bureau will sent
e valuable information to those who ap
ply for it and that the State Boar(
of Health also is willing to send liter
ature upon request.

oREANO.

Oreano stockholders are waiting
with some impatience to cut the vein
which is presumed to be identical with
the Union, now called Sherman, upon
which the big strike was made a few
months ago. The Union strike was
made through crosscut run from
the upper tunnel of the Oreano, and
in addition to proving a fine body Of
ore on Union ground, has given the
Oreano people a line on the location
of their vein which has up to this
time ben rather puzzling. A cross
cut is being run which has now reach
ed point where it's intersection with
the vein is expected with every round.
In view of the showing on the Union
and it's close proximity to the Oreano
ground, the Oreano people feel that
the chances for an ore shoot are more
than favorable.

The Miner learns from source
which il considers reliable that after
the first of the year the Hecla Mining
company will advance its dividend
rate from Is cents per share per month
to 20 cents. That some plan would be
devised to increase the disbursements
has been considered certain for some
time, as it has been known that while
paying Is cents per month the COM
.pany was still making heavy additions
to it's surplus. 1t is the policy of the
company to maintain a surplus of
$500, 900, and II is safe to assume that
an amount far in excess of this sum
is now in the treasury, possibly up
wards of $500,000 1t has been sug-
gested that the company would dis
tribute this surplus through the pay
ment of occasional extra dividends

SILVER CABLE CLOSED
UNTIL EARLY IN SPRING
HEAVY SNOW PREVENTS ORE
SHIPMENTS DURING WINTER
FINE ORE IN WINE.

James d. Corbett president of the
Silver Cable Mining company, and j.
| w. Kennedy director, both of Mis-
lsoula, We're in the city the first of the
week and returned home yesterday
morning, after having visited the mine.
Mr.. Corbett announced that the com
pany had decided to suspend opera
tions for the winter This was due to
the high cost of mining combined with
the inability of the company to ship
ore during the winter. During the
summer the management had expected
it was not until lately that the COM
pletion of the eleetrolytic zinc plant
made shipments possible, and now the
difficulties in handling the ore are
such that it is doubtful if shipments
could be profitablg made. The Silver
Cable mine is near the Idaho Mon
tana summit in the Montana side,
where the snowfall is very heavy,
coming early and remaining late. The
ore must be hauled five miles to the
railroad at Taft and it would be i'm
possible to keep the road open under
the conditions, All work has there
fore been suspended until early spring.
Ore in the Winze.
The winze that is being sunk from
he lower tunnel is now down 75 feet,
following the vein. At about so feet
the ore shoot was encountered and has
continued to improve. At this time
there is over two feet of solid ore that
average "a per cent lead, II per cent
zinc and 10 ounces of silver, accom-
panied by considerable ore of lower
grade. AS will be seen from the fig
ures, lead has come to be the pre-
vailing metal at the Silver Gable. In
the upper and intermediate tunnels
the reverse is true, zinc predominant
ing. The company has available in
the upper tunnels a large amount of
ore upon which it will be able to real
ize as soon as it can be moved in the
spring, and this should go far toward
providing for the development of the
property.

WALLACE, IDAHO, THURSDAY, NOV 10, 1910.
Hecla To Increase Diuidend From
Fifteen To Twenty Cents After the
First of the Year Says a Report

and ii was believed that the first of
these would be paid in December as a
Christmas greeting. While 1t is still
regarded possible that an extra Christ
mas dividend viii be paid, we feel
warranted in saying that the plan Of
the company is to Increase its regular
monthly distribution from Is TO 20
cents rather than the payment of per-
iodieal extra dividends.
The addition to the Hecla mill will
be completed and ready for operation
about December 15 according to pres
ent calculation, that being the date
when the company will terminate its
lease of the Federal mill, The addition
will add capacity about equal to the
tonnage now being run through the
leased mill, giving the Hecla mill a
capacity of about 700 tons per day.

CEDAR CREEK.
Ledge Should Be Cut In 88 Feet Ac
cording to Recent Survey.

Ledge Should Be Cut In 88 Feet Ac
cordine to Recent Survey.
Just about the time the Cedar Creek
crosscut had reached ground in which
the vein might be expected and which
had created a feeling of expectancy
among all stockholders, the cold snap
came along which made it necessary
to stop all operations. The COM
pressor is run by water power and
the excessive cold made it necessary to
empty the reservoir in order to pre-
vent a freezeup which might close the
property for months. Work suspended
three days ago, and it is expected that
weather conditions will permit a re-
sumption before the week is out. A
recent survey indicates that S8 feet re-
mains to be run to reach the vein, but
it is possible the distance may be con-
siderably shorter. Stringers of quartz
accompanied by galena and some zine
are now appearing and a decided
change in the pitch Of the formation
to an almost vertical position indi-
cate the near approach of the ledge.
The fine ore showings in the two tun-
nels above warrant the expectation of
an ore shoot when the vein is reached.

ON LITTLE NORTH FORK.
Much Timber Piled Along Stream
Waiting Spring Drive.

waiting spring UrVe'
Parties who have recently returned
from the Little North Fork report a
large number of men employed in get
ting out logs and the creek lined with
logs awaiting the drive when the high
water comes in the spring The logs
are said to be for the Rose Lake Lum-
ber company and the Springston Lum-
ber company The work will probab-
ly continue until about the first of the
year. There is a large body of fine saw
timber on the Little North Fork and
this with the growing Importance of
mining along the stream may lead to
the construction of a railroad to that
section. The success of the Empire
Mining company, together with the
encouraging showing on properties fur
ther up the stream, are attracting
much attention to the Little North
Fork as a mining field.

COPPER KING STRIKE
SHOWS I FEET OF ORE
COMPANY REPORTED IN GOOD
FINANCIAL CONDITION.

In cutting the vein on the Copper
King a few days ago the expectations
based upon the showing made by the
diamond drill several weeks ago seem
to be fully justified, according to infor-
nation received direct from the pro-
that a few weeks ago the ledge was
penetrated by a diamond drill for dis
tance Of AZ feet without reaching the
opposite wall, the pressure of the wa
tire rendering 1t impossible to go any
further. There was ore the entire
distance, mostly lead of apparently
good milling grade, and some copper.
Immediately following the diamond
drill work the extension of the cross
cut was started to cut the vein at a
point about 400 feet east of the dia-
mond drill hole, This was accomplish
ed a few days ago and the showing is
described as most gratifying The
vein at the point of intersection is Z
feet wide and an average sample gives
the following assay result: Lead, 1875
per cent; copper, per cent; silver,
g ounces. There is streak of fine
lead ore lying along the footwall II or
IA inches thick, and a similar streak
along the hanging, though hardly as
large nor as high grade. Between
these two streaks there is over feet
Of a blank copper ore which assays
from 2 to 4 per cent, with an ounce OF
silver to per cent of copper.
Strike is important r..
In striking this ore in what has
every appearance of being great and
permanent fissure, it is believed thai
the difficulties of the Copper King have
finally been overcome and that the eX-
ploration of the vein will prove The
property to possess great value. The
strike was made at depth from the
surface of 1900 feet. Drifting Wes
\ has been started and will be pushed as
rapidly as possible, two shifts work
ing. The company is reported in gOot
! financial condition, having upwards o
I$15, 900 in the treasury. Under these
/ circumstances the immediate outlook
/ for the property is highly encouraging
and those who have pinned their faitE
to Copper King may soon be in posi-
tion to have their judgment vindicated

MORNING TO USE STEWART MILL
Big Mullan Mine Will Increase II:
Output.

The Federal company will use the
Stewart mill. which is now under lease
to the Hecla company, for handling
ore from the Morning mine. The
lease to the Hecla terminates on De-
cember Is and the Morning will i'm
mediately begin using the mill. This
information was received yesterday,
from which it appears that the Federal
has simply been waiting for the Hecla
to complete the large addition to its
mill, which will be on or about the
18th of December. The Morning is
evidently going to crowd production to
the limit in order to get the benefit of
the prices of lead and zinc The COM
pany's mill at Mullan has a capacity
of over 1000 tons per day and the Ste
wart mill here is capable of handling
500 tons, but whether it is the purpose
to run at full capacity is not known.
II probably Is the intention of the
company to do so, for the mine is in
position to supply the maximum
amount Of ore without difficulty.

Shaft Down '130 Feet-Improved Show
ing In East Drift.

ing In East Drift.
Good progress is being made at the
Independent. The shaft which is be-
ing sunk on the vein from the tunnel
was down 100 feet the first of the
week, and continues to show consid-
erable ore. 1t will be sunk 200 feet,
at which depth the vein will be pros
pected by drifts and crosscuts. The
tunnel is also being extended east, fol-
lowing the vein, which shows steady
improvement. The ore is both copper
and lead, the latter being the more i'm
portant and giving evidences of dew
eloping into a permanent and COM
mercially valuable ore shoot. The
Independent is prepared for winter in
the way of supplies The compressor
of the Missouri Copper company is
being used, the Indeendent being dew
eloped from the lower tunnel run by
the Missoula across Independent
ground and which cut the Independent
ledge.
