LONE STAR HAS
WORKING PLANS
OFFICIALS TO MEET AND DIS
CUSS OPERATIONS IN
NEAR FUTURE

A conference of directors and
principal stockholders of the Lone
Star Consolidated Mining company
will be held in Goldfield shortly,
upon the arrival here of President
Nathaniel H. Wheeler from New
York, when plans will be determined
upon for the development of the
property on a broader scale than
has been undertaken in the past.
Tom W. Kendall of Goldfield is now
the company's resident agent and a
director and will be consulted and
his advice followed in starting new
work.
At several points on the property,
which is second only in area to that
of the Goldfield Consolidated in the
district, development work has pro-
duced encouraging results and in
the early days of the district some
ore of exceedingly high grade was
shipped from the ground by lessees,
operating on the eastern part of
the property.
More recently some prospecting on
the surface, in the western part, has
revealed veins of good promise,
yielding better assays in gold
than were obtained from some of
the richest mines in the district, and
it is regarded as probable that the
company will proceed to explore
this part of it's property when work
is resumed.
The Goldfield news and weekly tribune. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1911-1947, 1917-05-26

Goldfield mines in general are
in recent weeks; production has
increased in Substantial measure
and there is promise of an output
of considerable volume from prop
critics that have not heretofore been
productive. The usual large amount
of development work is progressing;
core drills are in use for prospect
ing at depth, and two or three prop
critics that have been idle for some
time are expected to resume active
operations very soon.
Despite the improvement in mine
conditions, there has been little re-
sponse to stimulating news from the
mines on the part of the market, and
mining circles are inclined to look
forward to another month or two OF
comparative market apathy, unless
some unforeseen development is an
nounced, of sufficient interest to at
tract traders to the Goldfield list.
Several properties on which devel-
opment work has been started or
resumed within the past few months
are now approaching the point In
their work where concrete results
may be expected with confidence.
Such properties as the Red Hill
Florence, Grandma Consolidated,
Cracker Jack, Jumbo Junior, Blue
Bull, SandstormKendal Silver
Pick and Diamondfield Black Butte,
on all of which work has been in
progress for some time, are likely
to open orebodies of great value at
any time and pay ore is already ex-
posed in some of these properties.
The Atlanta, Jumbo Extension and
Kewanas have commercial ore in
sight in large volume and are ex-
pected to realize large revenues from
production.
Goldfield Consolidated
The company's flotation plant is
operating successfully, treating the
more refractory ores of the district
with a high extraction of the metals
and at low operating cost. Free
milling ores from the company's
property are being treated in the cy-
anide department Of the big mill,
with the usual satisfactory results.
Ore of excellent grade is being brok-
en- at several points in the mine, al
though the average value of the
product now going to the mill re-
mains rather low. This was not
unexpected, as the work of opening
up and blocking out the deposits of
copper-gold ore on deep levels must

Stopping is now in progress in
the northern part of the Kewanas
property, at a depth of $40 feet.
The south drift from the east cross
cut has shown ore of shipping grade
for over 100 feet in length and this
ore was exposed by the raise, APP
proximately 100 feet west of the
drift. At the latter point the ore
was shown to be from four to five
feet in width and gave average as
says around $50 per ton. This af-

considerable magnitude and its lin

people contract typhoid fever every
year. and of these about S50, 900 die.
The germ may live outside the
human body for variable but re,a-
lively short periods. But IL there
were no people harboring these germs
they would soon die out.
The important measures to he
taken are rather for prevention than
Tor cure. The treatment OF the indi-
vidual case matters little In proper
ton to the preventing of $50, 900 from
contracting the disease.
Must Understand Danger.
In order to prevent, one must have
an understanding OF tho nature of
the germ. how and where it lives, and
how II gets into the body. with the
proper amount Of education along
these lines each one can do his share
toward effectually stamping out thi,
malady.
This disease is caused by n short
rod shaped germ called tho bac,llu,
typhosus. SO small that II can only
be seen with a powerful m!croscope.
1t Is shaped like n cigare,, with
rounded ends. IT has the power OF
swimming about In liquid.
The ono thing to always bear in
NINA is that the bacilli in each case
came from some ono else. This Is
the basis on which all preventive
measures must originate.

our mind is. "1Iow does the germ

OF the importance Of water as

How to Keep
Baby From
Colds
By MARY BARNSFATHER,

BY MARY BARNSFATHER.
THERE are many diseases to which
1 the young child is heir. Fore
most among these are the respiratory
diseases.
Colds arc high UP in the list. Colds
are caused by such variety o.
causes it Is hard to keep track Of
them all. They may come because
somebody. has brought the infection
to him. somebody has coughed in your
baby's face. infected hands have ham
died your baby. he has drunk from
an unciean glass. he has been allowed
70 play on = cold floor. he was kissed
on tho mouth by a germ laden car
rier. the air which he breathed was
lacking in moisture. he was dressed
too warmly or he slept in 4 stuffy
room.
Next time your child Is suffering
from heavy cold stop and ask your
self II you handled your baby with
out washing your hands after wash
Ing your dishes or busting. You may
comfort yourself in tho thought that
you did not handle anything very
dirty. hut even such a slight thing as
dust may have catlsed the mischief.
There Is no reason why your child
should not sit at play on a cold floor.
providing he Is in his pen and there
Is blanket or wooden shawl to break
tho cold. II you do not take this pre-
caution your baby will have moro
than his due share Of colds in the
head. This Is harmless in itself, but
II soon infiames the eustachian tubes
and soon creates a cold in the ear,
and It Is there the danger lies.
Means Of Relief Many.
II you notice that your child has
q cold in his head, little vaseline
will often relieve tho congestion.
When tho nose becomes clogged there
are number of oily sprays that will
give relief. Among these are a sim
pie albolene or camphorated albolene.
small amount Of castor oil will re-
Iieve the congestion. It is extremely
important that the bowels be kept
open during the time.

above all else do not permit yourself
to grow corpulent.
You may possess every other requi-
site which makes for beauty and
grace Of both face and figure, but il
you are corpulent you cannot be beau
tful. Corpulency is not an inherited
disagreement, it is a mark of GRIM
tnal negligence and abuse Of the vital
organs OF life.
No part OF the body is so suscepti-
BILE to neglect. so sensitive to re-
striction as the abdomen and yet no
member Is so little considered, so
grossly imposed upon.
There are no bones in the abdomen
and the muscles which are very
small, run obliquely. never straight
up and down nor yet around. Conse-
quently unless these muscles are
kept firm and healthy they readily
form fertile bed for tho propa ga
tion of fatty tissue.
When uncorseted a large ma jority
OF women display altogether too
much fat. Corpulency is undesirable
in men, but in women it is inexcusa-
BILE. Especially should every woman
strive against this most vulgar and
1nelegant OF all bodily deformities.
BY daily exercise Of the abdominal
muscles, with proper breathing,
standing. walking. sitting and per-
haps more than all else, correct cor
setting, the average woman need have
no fear OF excessive fat. However,
she may not even for one day neglect
this particular part Of her body with
out running the risk Of rea ping a har-
vest in fatty tissue later In life.
Peril Comes With Years.
The fear Of fat seems to be in
every womans mind, and we'll it may
be. for unless explicit care Is taken
after woman passes 30 there Ia
grave danger OF her becoming fat
and unsightly. When the figure loses
Its natural contour 1t Is a difficult
matter to ever restore its original
beauty.
If health and beauty Of figure are
to be preserved and enhanced the
diaphragm must be given freedom Of
aStioil tuo kept from
accommodating adipose tissue. This
may be accomplished only by daily
exercising and stimulating all the alb
dominal muscles and gaining abso-
lutte control over them. The muscles
OF the abdomen are just as easily ex-
ercised and controlled as those of
any other part of the body, provided
they do not suffer from undue re-
striction.
Clothing. especially tho corset,
should be worn moderately loose and
always 1t must follow the natural
curves and lines Of the figure. Skirts
and gowns should hang with weight
from tho shoulders rather than from
the waist line. thus giving freedom to
all tho organs and muscles of the
torso.
Breathing Important.
Breathing plays a most important
part in both reducing and controlling
the abdomen. With every inhalation
the abdomen should rise and fall,
while the chest remains nearly i'm
passive. Breathe with every pore OF
your body, but above all else breathe
with the abdomen. Breathe with tho
diaphragm. Breathe with will power
and determination.
See to it that the palms grasp tho
flesh firmly. Do not depend upon the
hands 70 do al Of the work. Wrigyls
