of the playing schedule from 154

a shorter season; the elimination of

VACANT LOTS
MUST PRODUCE

All government officials are talking
about extra production this year on
account of the war. No doubt this is a
serious question and every one should
respond. Not only are wheat and po-
tatoes high but all kinds Of meat are
almost beyond the working man. Many
people are holding down their expense
by keeping few chickens in their
back yard. You are probably throwing
enough table scraps into the garbage
can to feed several chickens. How
would you like to have all the eggs you
could use at a cost of one cent each?
Many fiocks are producing eggs at this
cost this month. One party in Fargo
bought 80 eggs for setting from me
last year. I helped him sell cockerels
for more than twice what he paid for
the eggs and he has the pullets and
the best cockerel for breeding this
year. can tell you where you can buy
setting hens. Chickens do not need
much room If they have good care.

HOLDEN SHELTER
FOR TUSCARORA
Noted SmeIter Man Will Con-
struCt Smelter of Three
Hundred Tons Capacity

f. II. Holden. of New York, one OF
the foremost smelter men in the Unit.
ed States, inventor OF the Holden re-
duction process is making arrange
ments for the construction of 4 three
hundred ton smelter at Tuscarora, in
which ore from the dumps OF the old
Tuscarora mines will be treated.
There are millions of tons in these
dumps and sampling tests which have
been taken in the past year show an
average value of between two and
three dollars per ton. BY the Holden
process IL Is estimated that the dumps
can be worked for seventy-five cents
n ton.
1t is understood that the work of
construction and operation OF the
smelter will be under the direction of
L. II. Holden, Jr., who spent a num-
ber of months here last year con.
Quoting the sampling, and who has
been here a number of days arranging
for transportation of the building sup
plies, large part of which have ar
rived.
A five-ton F. w. d. truck was put
on this morning to assist in trans.
porting the supplies, and it is an
nOunced that construction work will
begin at an early date.
A deal is now pending with the Twin
Falls Power company for electric pow.
er. If satisfactory arrangements can
not be made with this company il Is
proposed TO rahibilitate the Jack
Greek power line.
This will be good news to the resi-
dents OF Tuscarora and all Elko coun-
~, for II means long period of activ-
ity for that grand old camp. II means
that the millions of tons in the dumps
will be worked, and that further de-
velopmcnt work will be done in the
lower levels of the mines. When work
suspended II is n well known fact that
il was not from lack of ore but be.
cause a heavy flow Of water was en-
countored and the pumps were lost
With the modern and cheaper facili
ties for treating ore the company will
produce more in the future than il
has in the past. The record output of
the mines in Tuscarora and vicinity is
estimated at forty million dollars.
We are pleased to extend wei.
come TO Holden & Son. and we hope
that their ventur will prove entirely
successful.

The Brown Hotel of Eureka, one of

two O'Clock last Saturday morning, ac.
cording TO Mr.. II. +. Hunter, OF Pals
ade, who is an Elko visitor today.
burned about the head and face, but
IL Is not believed that her injuries are
dangerous.
The fire is believed to have started
in a bathroom in the rear part OF the
building where a lamp was generally
kept burning. The rear end of the
building was constructed of wood and
in its dry condition il was soon a
seething furnace. All the rear OF the
building was destroyed and the upper
story was completely gutted. The only
part of the building that escaped was
the barroom and the dining room.
Every room in the building was oc.
cupied and il is regarded as EXTREMITY
fortunate that no lives were lost. A
mining man from Colorado. whose
name we were not able to secure, was
one OF the first TO discover the fire,
and he Immediately set out TO warn all
the sleepcrs. He went to every room
and did not leave the burning build.
ing until he had reused the last one.
He was pretty badly burned about the
head and hands. Pete Carletti took
Mrs. Dan Morrison from the burning
building, but she ran back to her room
upstairs to save some personal effects.
The mining man tried to stop her on
the stairway but was unable to do So
How she finally escaped from the
building is a mystery. She was found
some time later at the creek in an un-
conscious condition. her hair burned
off and her face and hands badly in.

The Brown hotel was one of the
land marks of Eureka. II was one of
the finest in the state when IL was
built. and is said to have been once
valued at $4,000. II has had as
guests leading mining from all parts
of the world.
