New Rule Permits Farmer Who
Grows Wheat TO Retain
Flour For Family

Hamp Williams, federal
food administrator for Arkan-
sas, has issued new order
regulating the amount of
wheat that a farmer may keep
out of his crop for the use Of
his own family. The new rul-
ing permits a farmer who
gtows wheat to keep enough
flour to run his family for IL
months on the basis Of Il
pounds per person per month.
An official copy Of the new
ruling has been furnished The
Journal by A. K. Goodnight,
county food administrator for
independence county and IS as
follows:
NEW WHEAT RULING
Farmers in Arkansas who
periodically responded to the
request of their government to
grow their own wheat are now
permitted to have that wheat
ground into flour and take
from the mill a supply of flour
sufficient to last them twelve
months, if they desire. Fur
thermore, they are net bound
by the six pound per person
rule. They may take from the
mill flour from wheat they
grew on the rations of twelve
pounds per month for them
and their dependents.
Farmers who grow their
wheat are also permitted TO
keep a sufficient supply Of seed
to SOW their own land.
This new wheat and flour
ruling is to remain in effect
until new regulations are is
sued by the United States Food
Administration. Special atten-
ton is called, however, that

fighting qualities. From the
determination shown by the
young man in his efforts to get
into service, it seems that he
finally got into the proper
branch Of the service and It is
safe to say that when he gets
into the firing line he will give
a good account of himself in
unfolding the fighting repata-
ton of the world famous Z. S.
Marines.

$18,27912, making a total loss for the year OF $~37,O67.3o;
In August it became apparent that the ore exposed
in your property would not yield a profit. 1t was deemed
advisable to push development work as rapidly as posi-,
BILE toward the old Juniata workings for the purpose OF
proving or disproving the stories regarding the vein ana
ore values in this section which has been caved and
under water since 1872.
On the 4h of November an intermediate IS feet
above the main haulage tunnel encountered the shaft,
which fortunately had not caved for 70 feet above this
intermediate and gave access to what is believed TO be the
second level of the old Juniata mine. AT this elevation
the vein is exposed for 26O feet, of which 40 feet had
been stopped in the early days. The vein is eight feet wide
at the most westerly exposure and gradually widens to ~
feet in the most easterly exposure, where 1T has \ been I;
elevation in the west end there is a 9O-foot unstoped sec
ton eight feet wide, cut samples from which average
81 so. Samples from the fill range from $500 to $500,
and one cut across the back for 10 feet averages $4,000.
The most encouraging features of the exposure are: the
vein apparently widens to the east and also widens with
EXPLORATION AND DEVELOPMENT
The exploration work has been carried on through
the Goldfield Consolidated Mines Exploration Company
under the direction of Mr.. E. A. Julian, from whose report
the following are extracts:
"The search for other mining properties was conhn-
ued throughout the year, but on account of the greatly dis
in intensity, until at the close of the year, very little ex-
animation work is being done.
During the year six hundred ~ninety-six 1906 prop
critics were presented to the department.. OF this number
~forty-five (45) were examined.

number of distinct ore-shoots have
been exposed, all containing ore Oh
shipping grade in greater or less
quantity, and throughout this area
the work has proved up large guam
titles of excellent mill ore.
Interest now centers in large
measure on the work that is being
started on the old DR.. Lockhart
lease shaft, near the eastern ex-
tremity of the Great Bend property.
This shaft, sunk during the early
boom period to a depth of about 4oo
feet, produced some ore of exceed
ingly high grade, but lack of equip
ment to handle the water interrupt
ed much work at depth and the
lease was forfeited before the vein
had been explored to any appreci-
able extent at this depth, and this
ground has remained unexplored.
A short time ago the main s
drift on the 25O-foot level was con-
nected with the old lease shaft and
1t was found that the water In the
shaft came up to a point a short dis
taince below the point of connection.
The shaft is still in good condition
and the Great Bend company has
lately installed a head-frame over
this shaft and is now installing a
complete hosting and pumping
plant. Air for the operation of ma
chine drills will be brought from
the main shaft when required and in
the meantime the old shaft will be
Unwatered as rapidly as possible and
development work will proceed on
a comprehensive scale.

foisted to the surface for shipment,
this product having been taken out
in sinking the winze, in addition to
a large number of sacks of the pic
ture ore that yielded assays ranging
from $1,000 to $4,000 per ton. The
most important information regard
ing recent operations is that indicat-
ing that the commercial ore being
placed in sight is running into an
important tonnage.
Reorganized Kewanas
Operations in the southern part
of the property continue through
out a large area and the chief point
of interest at present is the incline
raise that is being driven from the
main south drift on the S4O-foot
level to cross-cut the main vein at
right angles to it's dip and to eX-
plore the hanging wall country. A
Cross-cut farther south is being ad-
vanced to the west and has exposed
some wide seams of ore near the
foot-wall.
Great Bend Mine
Satisfactory reports continue to
come from the Great Bend and the
daily assay sheets indicate that an
excellent average is being main
tanned in the quality of ore extract
ed from the newer workings. The
12O-A stope, opened from the 100
foot level, is yielding an excellent
grade of ore for a width of seven
feet, while r of nearly as good

The weeks work in the White
Caps has been devoted mainly to
extraction of ore for the mill, with
the exception of developme mt work
of the continuation of the vest drift
from the fifth level. This drift has
advanced 90 feet for the week, now
cut from the station a distance of
$40 feet, still in shale, quartzite
and limestone ribbons.
1t is expected that another 40
feet added to the drift will reach
the limestone belt for which the
drift is being driven. As soon as
the limestone is entered, the drift
will be turned to the west and ex-
tended to pick up the White Caps
west orebody. From the fifth level
raise sos has been started and is
row up a distance of 80 feet above
the level all in good grade of ore.
Ore for the mill is being taken
from 3O2 hanging wall stope. Sill
4O6 is still being cut to the west
and is furnishing good mill grade
ore, and at this point the ore has
been demonstrated for a width of
so feet. Sill SOC from the fifth
level is also being cut to the west
and now shows ore 80 feet wide.
The mill is running steadily and is
handling at present an average Of
rs tons daily. The next cleanup
of precipitates in the mill will be
made Saturday, March 18th.
Manhattan Con.
In the Consolidated an extremely
feavy flow of water in the shaft
vas struck four days ago. This wa
ter came into the shaft bottom up
on firing the third round of drill
Roles in the black Morning Glory
limestone belt recently encountered.
The mine sinking pump, a No. 6
Cameron, was ready to install and
was lowered into the shaft but be-
fore it could be started the water
had covered it and put it temporar-
lily out of commission
By the next morning the water
had raised 100 feet until it had
reached the fourth level. From
this point the new station pump of
the Consolidated, a 5 by 8 Goulds,
picked it up and handled it with
ease to the surface at the rate of
100 gallons per minute.
The large sinking pump of the
White Caps, a No. z Knowles, was
borrowed and installed and at this
writing the water has been lowered
20 feet in the shaft in the last three
days. When the Consolidated sink
er is uncovered, at a further depth
of Is feet, both pumps will be en-
ployed until the shaft is drained
and sinking can be recommended.
The maximum flow of water into
the shaft is estimated by the mine
superintendent, Mark Page, to be at
d rate VI 10 SdiiOHS pei hiihueo
The flow no doubt is but temporary
as these same water pockets have
been cut both in the White Caps
and in the Amalgamated mines and
after a certain length of time, the
pocket is drained and then no ad-
ditional water flows until another
Iocket is struck.
Apparently the water flow m
from a reservoir in the shape OF a
champer in the limestone belts
usually formed in connection with
the ore dispositions. For the above

grade is being broken from the in
~termediate drift below this level
and from the POI stope, farther to
the EAST and at the 250-foot level.
The Lockhart lease shaft is being
unwatered to reach the h~igh-grade
deposit found in this territory.
Jumbo Junior
Drifts are now being extended
both ways from the winze, about
55 feet down on the dip of the vein
below the SSO-foot level, and ore
of high grade continues in sight.
1t is believed that stopping will be-
gin shortly, when the company
should be enabled to make a profit
table production.
Grandma Consolidated
The main shaft of the Grandma
will reach the 750-foot level in the
neal future and it is estimated that
the shale contact zone will be pene-
trated not far from that depth.
Nearly as great Importance is as
cribed to this work as to any that
is now in progress in the Goldfield
district.

reason, these heavy water flows
are considered an indication of the
proximity of important ore deposits
when struck.
Union Amalgamated
In the Amalgamated during the
week, the shaft sinking has been
continued, below the 500 level. A
slight increase in the water en-
ccuntered is noted, but so far not
enough to warrant starting a sink
ing pump. The shaft has been tint
bered for Is feet below the Level,
the bottom of the shaft now being
about 40 feet below the level. Lat
eral development has already been
started.

A switch and track have already
been laid for the starting of a drift
on a large orebody cut in the DRIFT
which was run last year connecting
the Bath and Earl workings.
On the surface a powder maya
zine is being built at the Earl. The
old mine pumps have been brought
TO the surface and overhauled ready
to be placed in commission when
ever the time arises. 1t is under
stood that within 80 days ore ex-
traction will start and company
millings be commenced.
Manhattan Red Top
N. X. Franklin, superintendent
of the Red Top, arrived in Tonopah
Wednesday and held a consultation
with Mr.. Hermann Zadig, control
ling factor in this company, VINO
arrived the. following morning from
San Francisco. 1t was decided "a
discontinue work on their property,
pending the arrival of d 400 cubic
foot compressor, which ii expected
in about 80 days.
Some time ago the shaft was
sunk to a depth of 200 feet, and at
this point a heavy flow of water
was encountered, which flooded the
shaft to a point ITO feet from the
surface. Not being prepared to han
ole the water and continue opera
tions at this depth, the management
decided to confine the development
to the 11O-foot level, which is above
the water level.
In carrying out this program
about 1873 feet of prosecuting and
295 feet of drifting was done. This
work demonstrated the fact that the
workings were not sufficiently
deep, so it was decided to cease all
work until the compressor shall
have been installed, and then to
continue the sinking OF the shaft
an additional 200 feet, giving it a
total depth of 410 feet.
When this depth is reached
lateral work will be extended in
search of the orebodies hat are be-
lieved to lie within the boundaries
of the Manhattan Red Top Mining
company's estate. When the time
arrives to commence the unwater-
ing of the shaft little trouble is an
ticipated in quickly disposing of it,
after which an active mining policy
will be resumed.

data or maps covering the old lease
workings, the Great Bend manage
ment was proceeding with this work
on the chance that the reopening of
the old drifts at depth would reveal
the orebody from which the high
grade material was taken by the
lessees, but the arrival here recent
Nv of a man who worked in the
Lockhart lease has simplified this
problem, as he has described in de-
tail the work Of the lessees and the
point at which the high-grade ore
was found.
