THINKS SOMETHING WRONG
IN SEED BUSINESS.
Editor Sentinel:-

Editor Sentinel:-
AS newspaper and as one whose
record l am pleased to say shows
that you have the interests of the en-
tire county at heart, l want to ask
that you give space to at least the
details of few things that are hap
pening in Grenada in regard to the
buying of cotton seed The town is
being hurt by what is taking place
and the farmers are, too.
You are not unmindful of what is
in the minds Of many OF our citizens
for several years past and that is
that business has been injured at
Grenada by the local oil mills allow
ing their buyers to give more for cot
ton seed at adjacent or nearly towns
than here. Just now there seems to
be monopoly almost on the ginning
business of thecOunty. When cotton
seed is brought to these gins here.
number of instances can be cited to
show that if he undertakes to remove
his cotton seed and sell them to an in
dependent buyer, the farmer fails to
get all his seed. In other words,
there is loss; the seed weighed out
to him, plus the weight of the lint
cotton will not by any means equal
the seed cotton weighed in. Some
thing is wrong somewhere with scales
or there are being some gross errors
overlooked. Windham & Miers are
buying on their own hook and l be-
lieve it will be generally admitted
that we have put prices oil seed up in
this market for several years and
have thereby put goodly number Of
dollars more into the hands of the
farmers and helped to make business
better for our merchants.
According to my judgement, the
whole town as we'll as the farmers are
in this proposition. Our
should see to it that trade
is not run away from here any longer
because of the price of cotton seed.
j. M. Windham.

For Insurance Commissioner.
Shoshone county also has an appli-
cant for this important position, one
who fully measures up to the require

of Kellogg, is the man, and he has the
backing of his party and the person
al endorsement of many representa-

in the insurance business and woul6
bring to the office of insurance COM
missioner an experience and training
that would prove of great value in
the performance of his official duties.
He has always been an active repub-
lican and his appointment would be
a merited recognition of the party in
this county.
Superintendent Of Hepburn Park.
d. L. Hopkins. of Mace, is an ap-
plicant for appointment as superin-

many years been engaged in mining
in this district and has served the
county as assessor. Hepburn park
was named in honor of a distinguish
ed senator from Idaho whose home
was in this county and through whose
efforts the park was created. 1t is a
popular pleasure resort, one in which
the people Of Shoshone county are
especially interested, and it is pecul-

Should come from this county. Under
the supervision of Mr.. Hopkins the
park would receive the closest atten-

crease its popularity as public

CALEDONIA DIVIDEND
LAST At 8 CENT RATE
PAY CENT BEGINNING IN JAN
uARY-FINAL DISPOSITION
OF PROPERTY.

The Caledonia Mining company will
pay its regular monthly dividend to-
day. 1t will be at the rate of cents
per share, amounting to $7S,15 This
will be the last 3-cent dividend ac-
cOrding to announcement made re-
Gently by President Stanly A. Easton.
For several months the earnings have
been less than the dividend, the eX-
in the treasury. This has now been
reduced to an extent that renders 1t
necessary to hold it for the purpose
Of paying the federal war tax, and
for this reason Mr.. Easton states
that beginning with January the div
idend will be / cent per share paid
out of the earnings as long as the
mine can be proftably operated. The
Financial Review, of New York, pub
lished by Coleman & Reitze, in the
issue of November 25, has this COM
ment on Caledonia"
Revert to Bunker Hill.
whenever the Caledonia eXhauSts
its known ore bodies or can no longer
work at profit, the property reverts
automatically, without payment, to
the neighboring Bunker Hill & Sulli-
van company. This is one of the
stipulations of the compromise of the
apex suit between the two companies
made in 1913 when Bunker Hill &
Sullivan settled it's claims. At that
time the Caledonia increased it's issu-
ed stock from 100000 shares to g.
6O5, 900 shares, giving the Bunker Hill
the 100000 new shares, and receiv-
ing a perpetual lease on one unit of
the Bunker Hill concentrator. The
stipulation as to turning over the
Caledonia mine when known ore Is
exhausted or when no profit Is earn
ed, Is common one in the Coeur
d'Alenes. Some months ago the big
Federal company gave up one of it's
formerly profitable properties under
the same sort Of stipulation. The
Caledonia is also prevented from buy
ing other property, which means that
the surplus must be divided pro rata
on. the exhaustion of the Caledonia
mine, or termination Of it's workability
at profit"

TARBOX HAS BIG ORE
BODY ON 1000 LEVEL
MORE LEAD AND RICHER IN SILL.
YER ARE NOTABLE FEAT
URES OF STRIKE.

A great ore body, the best that has
ever been exposed in the mine, is be-
ing developed on the 1O0O-foot level
OF the Tarbox. When the crosscut
from the 20O-foot winze sunk from
the 800 level cut the vein, there was
a good showing of ore for a width OF
9 or 7 feet and more or less ore in the
form of stringers for a distance of 4O
feet or more; but the showing was
not so good as was reasonably eX-
pected. An investigation convinced
the management that the crosscu'
had entered the west end Of the ore
shoot and that the main ore body
would be found to the east. This
conclusion has now been fully con-
firmed by drifting to the east Yes
terday the drift had been advanced
about 10 feet and in that distance the
ore shoot had widened to upwards OF
8 feet of practically solid ore, by far
the best showing that has been devel-
oped in the mine. The ore continues
to widen and improve in grade as the
drift advances. Manager Richard
Daxon returned from the mine yes
terday evening bringing with him a
sack of samples which fully confirm
the description here given and Just-
fy his exuberar spirits.
Increase in Silver.

Cd on this level an assay by Frank j.
Dayey revealed a marked increase in

Mr. Daxon give evidence Of still fur-
ther richness in the white metal

lhe PriC of Lead
Drops Ice per Pound

Ine announcement of drop of
l cent a pound in the price of
iead last Monday, following the
meeting of the lead producers
committee in New York which
was called for the purpose of
stapllizing the market came as
distinct surprise to the lead
producers of this district, and no
one mas yet been able to give
satisfactory explanation. After
the signing of the armistice the
war industries board requested
the lead committee to continue
the regulation and distribution of
the lead business until the first
or the year, and it was evidently
IN pursuance Of this task that
the committee was called togeth.
er last week. 1t has of course
been anticipated that with the
war demand for lead ended and
with the government, which has
been taking about one-third of
the domestic product, out of the
market, there would be decline
IN the price of the metal during
the period of readjustment at
least, but there seems to be moth
ung in the situation to warrant
the slump, particularly with the
steadying hand of the government
still in evidence. According to
recent reports, there is little or
no surplus stocks of lead on hand,
and under that condition it was
hoped that the industrial demand
would maintain the war price un-
til after the first of the year at
least Coincident with the cut in
the price news comes from Lon
don that the price of lead had
advanced from G29R per long
ton to f40, representing an in
crease Of about 2h cents per
pound, and making the London
price now approximately SR
cents, or little above the war
price in this country. Harry l..
Day, who is a member of the lead
committee, attended the meeting
in New York, and it is reported
that after protesting against the
action Of the committee, tender
ed his resignation.

Idaho Must Not Fail
in Buying of Stamps

According to an official state
ment from the treasury depart
ment received by Allen b. Eaton,
of Boise, state war savings secre =
tary, Idaho ranks thirty-second
in the sale of war savings stamps.
This Is rather humiliating
showing for a state that has gone
over the top in the number of
men sent to the war and In bond
sales, Red Cross and in all other
activities for the support of the
government in war. Commenting
on this showing, Mr.. Eaton said
that other western states rank as
follows; oregon fifth, Washington
ninth, Nevada eleventh, Montana
twelfth, Arizona twenty second,
Wyoming twenty sixth, Utah
twenty seventh; There may be an
excuse for Idaho to be behind
those coast states which have had
the benefit of great payrolls in
connection with government con-
tracts, but there can be no excuse
for this state being behind Ari-
zona, Nevada, Utah and Wyo-
ming. In fact, there can be no
explanation for the failure of Ida
no except apathy on the part of
hn
stitute an excuse. The govern
ment needs the money, and if it Is
not forthcoming through the sale
OF war savings stamps, it must
come through direct taxation or
other effective means War saw
.ings stamps are the best invest
ment in the world and there are
none too poor to invest In them.

This is Honor Week." the week
in which Idaho and Shoshone
county are expected to subscribe
their, full quota of war savings
stamps. Every person Is urged to
go the limit of their means in the
purchase of these stamps. This
appeal is made on the ground of
state and county pride, high char

ing to $4,000, and no further dis
tember, when the company adopted
the system of paying quarterly and a
disbursement of Is cents per share
was made, amounting to $150,000 The
same amount will be paid the>current
month, bringing the total for the year
up to $350,OOO and the grand total for

large dividend this month was with
