STEADY OUTPUT
FROM ATLANTA
PRODUCT is BEING SENT DAILY
FROM NINE TO THE
SHELTERS

A regular production of shipping
ore is being made by the Atlanta
Mines company from Slopes opened
on various levels from the 400
down to the 175O-foot point The
best of this ore has come from the
rorth drift. following the hanging
wall of the great vein on the 1850
foot level, and this has been mixed
with sorted ore from slopes at 9TH
er points in the mine, making a
product of excellent shipping grade,
containing gold, silver and copper.
Development work on main and
intermediate levels has continued to
place in sight large quantities of
lower grade ore, uniform in quality
and in it's metallic content, and which
can be treated to excellent advan-
tage by the flotation process. Ar
rangements have been concluded as
a result of which this product will
eventually be treated in the flota-
tion plant of the Consolidated Mines
company.
These arrangements were made
some time ago, but difficulties that
arose Unexpectedly, in connection
with the marketing of concentrate,
prevented the carrying out of the
plan earlier. The Atlanta mine is
now in condition to make regular
production of considerable volume
and it is believed that ore will be
go;no forward tn the flOtatiOn plant
in the near future.

1t is this desire that has, within two
days, added 800 names to the men,

chapter and which will swell it to
over 1000 in two weeks time.
Merchants of the town are COM
ing forward with liberal aid. Many
GoIdfield merchants will observe
June 8, as Merchants Red Cross
day and will give 10 per cent of
their cash receipts to the Red Cross
fund; one lodge, the Eagles, has
already given a big benefit dance
and every other fraternal organiza-
tion in Goldfield is preparing to do
the same. Other organizations are
arranging for some sort of benefit
and individuals are asking: What

The Red Cross wanted headquar-
ters. One of the finest business
rooms in the town was Immediately
offered, free of rent; the Red Cross
wanted furniture for headquarters
and the same was Immediately
forthcoming without charge. The
telephone company wanted to know
if they could furnish telephone
free and the electric light company
rendered their service without cos..

No movement of any character
ever started in Goldfield has met
with such hearty and general ap-
proval and support as has the Or
ganization of a local chapter of
the Red Cross Everyone, indivi-

all coming forward, asking what
they can do to help.
There are so few ways open to
the people of this region to help
their country in this greatest of all

opportunity to join and assist the
work of the Red Cross-a national
organization headed by President
Wilson, created to stand behind
the army in the field and render
relief in times of national and do

Ore suitable for flotation and

treated by that process is exposed
in large quantity in workings on

daily to the smelters and it is re-
ported that the company is now
making a satisfactory profit above

ment TO utilize scientifically thousands
of acres that may never be planted
without well.directed efforts.
New methods in drying make II pos
sible to prepare vegetables at q rela-
lively low temperature within eight
hours after they have been harvested.
The product can be hermetically
sealed, and can be eaten fifty years
later with as much relish as the origi-
nal vegetable. The dry product also
takes up one-tenth of the space OF the
wet vegetable in storage, and weighs
about onetwelfth as much. Com
pared with the existing prices OF food
stuffs, the dry vegetable costs one
quarter or one-third the price OF the
fresh. Its mineral salts, proteins,
carbohydrates, and caloric values are
unchanged. AS much Of the dried
vegetable can be packed in tin about
the size of a pocket tobacco can as
quart can of the canned fresh veget-
ables will hold. This will keep fifty
years. in any climate, while the can
ned vegetable will spoil at the end OF
eight months. With the present scar

ing expenses and conserving our re-

Vegetables Mostly Water.
Nearly nine.tenths OF the weight
and volume of the vegetables raised in
this country is water, according to
statistics compiled by the government
OF an onion S76 per cent is water
with no nutriment or value; of a par
snip SO per cent, potato Is 1873 per
cent water, tomato is 94.3 per cent
water, beets are 81 per cent water
and cabbages are 91.5 per cent. water
The consumer must pay for the trans
portation of this water from the farm
TO the city the greatest cost OF fresh
vegetables.
THE marketing of the, dried veget-
able will bring some measure of re-
lief TO hundreds of thousands of famil-
les now staggering under the load of
increased food costs. One Of the
greatest problems that confronts the
wife of a poor man is the preservation
OF food. The upkeep Of refrigerator
in summer is big item OF expense,
and the result is that the housewife
seldom buys more vegetables than she
can use in day. This accounts for
the growth OF the basement and push
cart grocer who can profit by buying
in large quantities at wholesale rates
and selling in very small quantities at
high retail rates. His cart laden with
germs, blown by dusty winds, with its
hot, fermenting vegetables, is a famil-
lar sight on the east side of New York.
The new method will put sanitary
vegetables dried within a few hours
of harvesting, which can be kept for
any length OF time, within the reach
of every woman's purse.
The problem of feeding an army
will be greatly simplitied BY the use
of dehydrated vegetables. Napoleon
first recognized the necessity of first
class food for fighting men. The Ger
man army is now being supplied with
parboiled dried food made by diff
ferent process, which makes it neces-
sary to cook the food again. In this
way the food loses some OF its favor
by being cooked twice. though an adj
vantage is gained in that the food is
partly cooked when it arrives at the
front.
When it is remembered that the
breakdown of the army transport IA
cilities made 1t almost impossible for
Pershing's men in Mexico last sum
mer to get fresh vegetables, and that
they actually suffered from lack OF
them. the benefit Of the dried veget-
ables to such an expedition can easily
be imagined. One trainload of the
dried vegetables would have fed as
many men we'll as ten trainloads of
the fresh vegetables. For explorers
who are forced TO carry their food it
viii be of incalculable benefit. a
Where every square foot OF space
on battleship is needed for ammuni-
ton and coal. the possibilities in the
new dried food for sailors are great

Bio Waste in Vegetables

THE department OF agriculture is
authority for the statement that one
half of the fruits or vegetables grown
in the United States never reach the
consumer A large part OF this waste
is fruit with which the market is glut-
ted in the summer season, but the
enormous quantity Of vegetables
which are plCughed into the ground
each year is almost criminal. In the
summer there is little market for the
farm product, and freight rates are so
high that it hardly pays the small
farmer to ship to the cities. hlgh
percentage OF what is shipped spoils
on the way, due to fermentation, and
what is sold must bring higher price
TO pay for the wastage in transit. The
new method makes fermentation I'M
possible by removing the water,
makes it possible for the housewife
to keep fresh vegetable dried without
the expense OF ice and refrigeration.
Freight rates are lower on account OF
the lower weight and volume and in
this case it will be the consumer who
wins by the difference
with drying stations for the evap-
Grafton of vegetables all through the
farming districts TO which the farmers
can bring their product instead of let
ting it rot in the full season, and with
Il system of distribution to every re
tail grocer and pushcart in the winter,

tables are scarce In this way he
