Another mining deal OF more than
Ordinary Importance is announced In
the sale OF the Waldo mine located
q mile east OF Takilma, 10 the In
terests who own the Queen Of
Bronze and other neighboring pro-
perties.
The sellers OF the property are
q. W. Halcs OF Chicago. Dewitt Van
ostrand Of Phillips. Wis. Alvah H.
Gunnell and J. F. Reddy Of this
city, The purchasers are John
Hampshire and a group OF associ-
ates including Judge John Twohy
and R. b. Miller. The purchase
price is approximately $4,000.
The Waldo property consists Of
two sections. $50 acres OF patented
ground and 12 unpatented lode
between the Lyttle mine on the
claims comprising all the ground
south and the Queen Of Bronze on
the north (both Of which properties
are owned by the new purchasers oi
the waldo) and $40 acres adjoining
the Queen Of Bronze on the north
This amounts to about one and one.
half mile along the ore zone.
The Waldo property Is one Of the
famous producers sof this section.
Its history dates .hsck to the FIRST
operation In copper In southern Ore
gon. II was formerly owned by the
Gum estate Of San Francisco which
was represented In this district by
Col. T. w. M. Draper. II was while
Col. Draper was operating the Waldo
and the Queen Of Bronze properties
that he had survey made OF rail-
road to the coast. which survey was
recently purchased by the city OF
Grants Pass.
Col. Draper operated the property
between 1900 and 1906. Its ores
were. for the most part. smelted al
the Takilma smelter which was
operated for about four months OF
each year when compelled to close
on account Of the damage to vege-
tation from the sulphurous fumes.
In 1923, the property was oper-
ated under lease by a man named
Beale.
February. 1914. parties now sell
Ing the property purchased II from
the Gum estate and have continued
operations and development work
to the present time. During these
three years about $4,000 in ore
has been shipped to custom smelters
running about Is per cent copper
and about $3.50 in gold values,
The total output or the property
has been in the neighborhood OF
s300,0 900.
Mr. Hampshire and associates
plan to do an extensive piece Of ex-
ploration of the property with dia-
mond drills, and to install an oil
flotation mill by which process the
ores can be concentrated into a
rich shipping concentrate. making
the property's operation much more
profitable. The pyrotite content of
the ora, being heavy with iron, can
not be separated from the copper
chalcopyrite by the ordinary water
and gravity concentration process.

 WOULD CONTROL CLOTHING
 The conventions resolutions proposed that food commission, if named, handle also the production and distribution of clothing. They also recommended that agricultural colleges graduate their senior classes earlier this year than usual so they may go immediately to the farms and that state councils of defense be named to aid the national council, step already planned in some states.
 A dozen speakers urged mobilization Of the country's food resources. James Will son, formerly secretary of agriculture and president of the agriculture society spoke for soil conservation. That, he said, is one of the most important things for the American farmer to know.
 Herbert Quick, of the farm loan board, said operation of the farm loan act would improve the agricultural situation. A wheat shortage, he said. would force the country to turn to corn as a substitute. The position of the farmer, he declared, was critical despite high prices because of labor shortage and because of high prices charged for machinery and seed.
 MRS. MATHIS SPEAKS
 Mrs. G. w. Mathis of Alabama, said
  that Alabama has not enough food on hand to feed it's population for 30 days
 Encouragement of the back-to-the-fa movement was advocated by Theodore N. Vail. The farm now offers, he declared, probably the geratest opportunity for in dividual success of all the countrys in- dustries. The county he said, was about to know an era of great prosperity-per- I haps the greatest in it's history-and the hylf ia yO111d rrf prosperity faster than anything else.
 Millions of food gardens as a means of combating a food shortage was suggested by Charles L. Pack, of the national emer- gency food garden commission.
 "They will give millions of families cheap food,'' he said. and will relieve the railroads of transportation problems which it is believed everywhere will be too much for them. I have Just come from Ohio. which enters the war with less food than at the outbreak of the civil war, when the population was half what it is today. In other states east of the Mississippi the situation is much the same.
 "The department of agriculture has just announced that drop of more than 10,- GOO, 900 pounds in the stocks of frozen and cured meats in the United States, com pared with last years store, is indicated The reserve supply OI dil IOoo icCcSSiticS Is low. The yield fell short of normal this year. And now with the war upon us the yield to come from the present crops will be needed for the army and navy.
 There is but one solution, and that is individual farming. Convert every back yard garden and vacant lot in every city, village and town into a thriving food pro- ducing garden and the civilian population will be self-supporting. The nation will not face the poblem of feeding an Inac- tive army if it is done'
 Senator Phelan of California said the highest war strategy appeared to be the control of food supplies This country, he said, must practice food economies as have the other belligerents if it expects to emerge victorious.
