SABiNA.
Work Suspended Until Supplies Can
Be Taken in.

The extreme difficulty in delivering
at the property has caused
the management OF the Sabina COM
pany to suspend operations until con-
ditions are more favorable. 1t viii be
recalled that a few weeks ago a strike
of about two feet of ore was made In
The main tunnel. Since that time air
pipe has been placed in the tunnel
over 800 feet long, and the crosscut
extended into the vein for distance
of 22 feet withou. reaching the wall
In addition to the ore mentioned,
more or less ore was found in the
vein and in one place quite large
streak of galena was cut. This work
is at a depth from the surface OF
about 800 feet, where the ledge is 20
feet wide AS soon as supplies can
be taken in the crosscut will be ex-
tended to the wall and then drift
will be run which is expected to de-
velop an extensive ore shoot.

AMAZON DIXIE.
New Pump in operation-Plenty OF
Water for Power.

The new station pump was installed
in the Amazon Dixie mine last week
and is easily handling all the water.
In the meantime the mild weather and
rain has increased the supply of water
which has enabled the company to
put on another shift. Manager Ev-
erett went over Monday morning, ac-
companied by several miners, and
full force is again at work. When
work was suspended to await the ar
rival of the pump, there was only
feet to go to cut the vein, according

the vein has now been encountered.

SCARCITY OF LABOR MAKES
MILKING MACHINE FEASIBLE
Small Herds May Frequently Be En-
larged Because of Time Machine
Saves

Because of the scarcity Of farm
labor and the difficulty of obtaining
good hand mixers, farmers are look
ing with greater favor on the milk
ing machine. The improved machines
have been given thorough trials at
several Of the experiment stations,
and have been operated successfully
by numerous practical dairy farmers
during the last few years. Simplicity
has been given due consideration in
the improvement of machines, and
farmers that can successfully operate
the farm machinery need have no
fear of operating the milking ma
chine. Cleaner milk will be produced
under ordinary farm conditions with
the mixer than by hand milking, pro-
vided the machine is thoroughly clean
ed and the undertaking kept in an
antiseptic solution. Because of the
first cost it was not usually consider
ed economical to have a milking ma
chine where less than 20 to 30 cows
were kept Under present labor con-
ditions the farmer with smaller
herd might profitably install me-
chanical mixer, thereby saving time
and tightening his labor materially.
Some farmers with small herds have
found that they could increase the
number of COWS maintained on their
farms after installing the milking ma
chine by reducing the time taken to
care for each cow.-H. C. Nevius, Col

them to call the attention of their Or

The Colorado Agricultural college
has been the hardest hit of state ed
ucation institutions by the inroads
of the war upon its student body.
Reports of the institutions to Gov
ernor julius C. Gunter show that only
one, the State Teachers college at
Greeley, held its own in point of at
tendance at the opening of the school
year. And there the number of men
students decreased half. The Agricul-
tural college attendance was 461, a
decrease of 29 per cent. At the Uni
versity of Colorado there was a loss
of 140 students, the total registration
being 1,l35. The State School of
Mines reported loss of 40, its total
being 1853. The Gunnison Normal
school enrolled rs, a decrease of 5,
in its normal department and ia, an
increase of 26, in its high school de-
partment.
Losses of senior students at the I'm
iversity of Colorado, the Agricultural
college and the School Of Mines were
due mostly to the departure of stu
dents with the engineering and ar
tillery organizations of the federalized
