ROOSEVELT MEMORIAL

New York, Ocober 19-William Boyce Thompson, President of the Roosevelt Memorial Associa- ton. has issued an. appeal to the State chairman of the Association asking them 10 aid in the collec- ton of biographical data concern ing the late Colonel Roosevelt.
 In the course of his appeal, Mr. Thompson said "The Memorial Association considers 1t of vital importance that this material be collected without delay. Many of the men who knew Colonel Roose- velt intimately are men well along in years, and, unless a special eff fort to gather "reminiscences of Roosevelt is made now, the inn portant record of their association with the Colonel is likely to be partially or wholly lost. All ma terial secured will be carefully ar ranged and catalogued with a view toward its usefulness in the future as basis for a comprehen- sive biography of Colonel Roose- welt similar to the Nicolay and Hay biography of Lincoln.
 Asked concerning the character of the data desired, Mr. Thompson replied: We want anything and everything that will throw light on the character and career of Colonel Roosevelt. From those who knew the Colonel only slight ly we want everything of signifffi canoe which they can remember of their meetins with him, from those who knew him well, we want as much asfiftv thousand words if We can get them.
 All material submitted should he addressed to Mr. William

Dairymen's Troubles

 Ne dairymen were pleased with your editorial on the above subject in last week $ issue and in response to your kind invita- tion will give some facts concern ing the dairy business as taken from books kept with my herd Of COWS.
 Two years ago this coming No vember, in 1917, 1 bought wheat bran from $33 to $36 per ton. cot ton seed meal from $44 to 57.20 per ton, beet pulp at $43 per ton and salt at S2 per barrel. Later on in February 1918, wheat bran at S45 per ton During this time to February 1st dairymen re- ceived $4 per 100 pounds for i per cent milk, after Feb. 1st s 60 10 April 1st, then $3.00 to Sept. 1st, then $4.00 to following April 1st. 1919.
 From November lSt I9lf to No vember 1st 1918 my net profits from IS cows not figuring any in- terest whatever on my investment in herd of cows or farm, was S9S6.16. The average production of milk per COW was 3S29 pounds and this was the largest net profit II ever received in year in the dairy business.

Dealing in Superlatives

Postmaster General Burleson evidently believes that violent di- seases require yioent remedies. There is not doubt but that the whole nation believes the admin istratiOn of the wire and mail ser vice has been suffering from a critical complaint, and the post master must have realized this when he came to his own defense the other day in speech at At lantic City. Also there is no doubt that the postmaster in his effort to correct thie universal inn precision has been violent in his self-impressiveness and lack of modesty. Gnquestionably 1t would have been immensely hetter for some one else than the postmaster to have sized up the postal admin istration as being remarkable in it's development, wonderful in it's organization, and that its stand ard of efficiency borders on the miraculous.
 But, having smothered himself in bouquets. we imagine Postmas- ter Burleson is willing to exhibit himsef before the nation in alLthe glory or his self adornment. Af- ter, having read this fulsome adu- lation by the P. NJ. of himself. we should like to ask the business. the laboring and the professional interests of the country what they think of it. Of the business men we would like an expression on mail efficiency that would tell of the many and sometimes costly de- lays to them in the handling of their mail. They might also give their jews of the telegraph ser vice, that delivered messages 49 hours after they had been filed. and then so terribly mutilated as to be mdecipherable. The labor ing men could say a few things about the policy in the postoffice that sought to establish a surplus employin too few men and then underpaying these. ana about a wire management that brought on a nationwide strike The pro- fessional men undoubtedly hold some views about a highhandetl l policy of censorship that sought to close the wires to anything that savoreG of criticism of Bmleson and his policles.
 Yes, these men unquestiona6ly can speak, and if they do so they will deal in suPerlatiyes that will be superlatiye to those of the post master. But this general View, we know. will be based on such sim pie adieetiyes as inefficient. tyr annous and incompetent.-Com- mercial Appeal.

ton seed meal 456 per ion in Nov. to S65 in March, about S10 higher on an average than the year pre- vious. Beet pulp $53 per ton, just S10 higher than previous year. Salt S4.00 per barrel, just double previous Year, but milk was same price except in September this year it was S1.00 per hundred less than previous year. Please note that.
 As this year closes with me October 31st. cannot give full re- port until then, but owing to high er prices of everything, profits are bound to be less.
 But now how about 1920, begtn- ming this Nov. 1st? Cotton seed meal has started out at S70 per ton, beet pulp We learn will be over S63.00 per ton or full 9l0 higher than last year. and the war k still on between the prof. teers and the consumer. Our Dairy Company declares they will not raise the price above $4 per hundred and so if we dairymen continue in business we are bound to have a glory halIelujah time to make bit and buckle meet.
 My judgment is that if the buy CTS in Little Rock who are actual ly getting over r10 a hundred for the same test of milk they only give IS s4.00 for, and can not pay us living price, we should sell all our cows ercept a few for fam ily Use and engage ill more profit able business.

mored that the capacity of the mill
will soon be doubled. The aver
age grade of ore being treated is
$14 and the resources of the mine
are being added to thorough de-
velopment work on a large scale.
The Minerva Tungsten company,
which recently completed a new
reduction plant in the Minerva dis
trict in White Pine county, has
been forced to close, as there is
no market for the product. The
company has a large tonnage of
ore on the mine dump. The re-
duction plant was operated only
long enough to thoroughly test it.
A good tonnage of ore also is ex-
posed in the mine.
The Thompson smelter will close
on March 1, according to reports,
and from that date operations of
the Mason Valley Mines company
will be greatly curtailed, owing to
the unsettled condition of the cop

Silver-gold ore assaying $25 per
ton is being shipped from the old
Mountain King mine, near Haw-
thorne. The Mountain King was
at one time an important producer
of silver, but had been neglected
for many years during which the
price of silver was low.
Despite the drop in the price of
copper e. S. Chafey has increased
the output of the Dunlap mine,
east of Nina. The average grade
of ore shipped assays six per cent
copper.
Regular shipments of silver ore
of good grade are being made by
the Candelaria Mines comany and

MAYFLOWER
IS Opening
800 LEVEL
IMPORTANCE is ATTACHED TO
WORK AT
DEPTH

The main interest in operations
at the Mayflower mine, in the Pho
neer district, is centered in the
work being done on the S00-foot
level, as but little work was done
in earlier operations on this level
and the opening of the vein at
this depth would add a huge
quantity of ore to the resources
of the mine. A drift is being
driven northeast in the vein on
this level and, while seams of good
ore have been exposed, it is not
expected that material of milling
grade will be opened until the
working has been advanced we'll
beyond the present point. This
drift has been advanced so feet
from a crosscut driven to the vein
from the bottom of the incline
shaft.
Work performed to date has re-
suited in ore of milling grade be-
ing exposed in five working faces
and this has decided the manage
ment to increase the capacity of
the mill by the addition of ball
mill, which will not only increase
the capacity of the plant, but will
result in a far greater saving be-
ing effected through finer crush
ing.
Several hundred tons of ore of
milling grade, broken in develop
ment work, has been stored in the
mine by Manager J. B. Kendall,
and it is possible to store 1000
tons in the old workings, using
easily accessible. slopes, for The pur-
ose.

ALTO GROUP At DIVIDE
SOON TOBE DEVELOPED
WORK WILL BE UNDER d.
RECTION OF j. X
TURNER

Preparations are being made to
start work at an early date on the
Alto group of four claims, recent
ly purchased by Charles S. Sprague
and associates from r. G. Will
liams, one of the early claim hold
ers of the Divide district, who re-
tains large interest in the claims.
A corporation will be formed to
develop the ground, which will be
capitalized for 1900, 900 shares, of
which 100000 shares will be re-
tanned in the treasury.
The Alto group, consisting of
the Alto Nos. 1, 2, 8 and 4, in
cludes rs acres along the east and
southeast boundaries of the Gold
Zone. The Alto No. claim is
only short distance from the
main shaft of the Tonopah Divide.
The ground was inspected recently
by j. K Turner, engineer for the
Sprague interests and sinking of a
shaft will be started under his di-
rection as soon as the snow leaves
the ground sufficiently to permit
an accurate survey being made.
The Alto group is the last of
the holdings of r. G.. Williams in
the Divide district and control of
this ground gives the Sprague in
terests ground of particular value
in connection with the ownership
of the East Divide, on the Merced
claim of which a shaft, now 225
feet deep, is being sunk with two
shifts of miners.

NEVADA MINES ARE
MAKING GOOD OUTPUT

The attachment against the Ro-
chester Mines company has been
lifted, which is taken as an indi-
cation that a settlement has been
reached in the apex suit started in
the district court in Humboldt
county by the Rochester Elda Fina
Mining company against the Ro-
chester Mines company, a damage
suit to recover over $1,00O,000 un-
der the apex law. 1t is believed
the suit will be withdrawn, which
will mean a consolidation of the
five big mines of the Rochester
district, the Rochester, Rochester
Combined, Rochester Elda Fina,
Nenzel Crown Point and Roches-
ter Merger.
1t is believed the consolidation
will make of Rochester one of the
most productive silver districts in
the country. Mills owned by the
Rochester and Rochester Combined
have a combined capacity of over
600 tons daily, with sufficient ore
blocked out to keep the mills in
operation for a long period.
Owing to the unsettled copper
market there is little activity in
the Copper Basin district, accord
ing to reports from there, and
many of the principal opera
tors have closed their mines.
Practically all lessees have dis
continued work, although some
ore still is being shipped.
Within two weeks a reduction
plant will be in operation at a
quicksilver mine owned by John
Ross, Frank Childress and M. d.
Farretta in the Jersey valley, in
Humboldt county. A few days
ago the loading platform at Jean, in
Clark county, held 40 tons of cop
per ore from the Coppersides, 40
tons of zinc ore from the Green
Monster, 40 tons or lead concen-
trate from the Anchor and IL tons
of zinc ore from the Yellow Pine
dump. A carload of copper ore
from the Boss has just been
shipped.
Operations at the Dawn, in the
Goodsprings district in Clark coun-
ty, continue with favorable results.
Forty tons of 40 per cent zinc ore
recently was shipped.
The Elkora mill at Jarbidge, in
Elko county, is operating steadily,
night and day, reducing over 100
tons of ore every "a hours. The
force of miners is being increased,
according to reports, and it is ru-

RED HILL IS
DRIFTING IN
GOOD ORE
THIRD CAR BEING LOADED
WITH ORE FOR SHIP
MENT

Driving of the drift on the 600
foot level of the Red Hill in
which rich ore was opened short
time ago is continuing, the ore
assaying $50 per ton as broken
over a six-foot width. The third
car is being loaded for shipment.
The drift is being continued almost
due north.
This drift has been extended 40
feet from the main drift, or about
20 feet from the point at which
the discovery was made. Shortly
after the high-grade ore was open
ed, some assaying over $400 per
ton, the grade decreased rapidly,
the face of the drift assaying as
low as $14 at one stage of the
work. Since then there has been
a steady increase and the carload
of ore being loaded will be the
most valuable shipped since the
discovery was made.
A winZe and raise were started
where this ore was first opened
in quantity, but neither working
showed the rich material to con-
tinue. Driving of the drift vas
then resumed and shipments have
added materially to the treasury of
the company. Interest continues
to be taken in the progress of the
drift, as the ore-shoot is a promis-
ing one, according to Manager J.
B. Kendall, and there is possi
bility that bonanza ore will be
opened in quantity in the course
of the work.

SPfARHEAD EXPLORING
SHALE CONTACT ZONE
EFFORTS OF COMPANY DEVOT.
ED TO REACHING
CONTACT

The Spearhead continues explor-
alton of the main shale contact
zone at a depth of 90 feet and
seams of promising material are
being exposed at a number of
places in workings driven in the
shale. The contact between the
shale and latte has not been
found, but crosscuts have shown
the quartz area to be so feet wide,
illustrating the great zone of en-
richment in which the company is
working and the excellent oppor-
tunity afforded for finding high
grade ore at the contact.
Efforts are being made to reach
the contact at a point away from
the hill in the surface of the shale
into which a raise was driven 125
feet without reaching the latte.
