TUNGSTEN MINING
BRINGS ATTENTION
MANY PROPERTIES SOUTH OF
BELMONT RECEIVE DE-
VEIOPMENT

Interest is again being taken in
tungsten in this vicinity. Jake Hum
phrey, j. Kelley, P. o. Harris, Jake
Hoffman and Charles Humphrey
own 33 claims two miles south of
Belmont.
The ore is Wolframite two tests
made of the concentrates running re-
spectively 63 and &C per cen WO3,
or tungstic acid. Some of the ore
goes better than so per cent in it's
native state.
There are a number of Lodges in
granite on the property. They range
from a few inches to two feet in
width. The ledge has been opened
for a length of 1875 feet by means
of a trench. 1t shows an average
value of 3 per cent.
This property was bonded last
year for 500, 900, but the unexpect-
ed drop in the price of tungsten pre-
vented the consummation of the
deal. Other parties are o negO-
tiating and there are good prospects
of a deal being put through. The
present owners plan to start work
within the next 80 days.
John Zabriskie of Belmont has IL
claims, equally as good, bordering
this property on the south.-Man-

TEST BATTERY
SAYS v, MARkLE

Here's a tip for owners Of new cars
that is passed out by William Markle,
Willard battery expert for Smoot &
Steinhauser:
The first thing the ewner of new
automobile should do is to go to the
battery service station and let the
expert test bis battery says Merkle.
The reason for this is that the bat
terry begins to wear the moment the
car is assembled, and by the time
the machine reaches the purchasers
hands the battery may he only hall
charged. And ii it goes untouched it
gradually becomes starved. when nc
amount Of rech5rging can restore It to
IT'S original good condition
Every new ear should have its
battery recha-gcd before il is put
into use. y
