STERLING SILVER CO.
THREE SILVER VEINS
HAS PROMISING GROUP OF MIN
ING CLAIMS IN HEART OF
SILVER BELT.

AT the annual meeting of stock
holders of the Sterling Silver Noun
tain Mining company in Spokane on
Monday evening the following direct
ors and officers were elected: Presi-
dent, r. l.. Brainard, of Kellogg; vice
president, w. l.. N~iehorster, of Spo-
kane; secretary-treasurer, Matt
Baumgartner, of Spokane. These
with DIR. E. f. Richter and Dan Kreh-
biel, of Lind, Wash; C. C. Schweer,
of Spokane Bridge, and F. w. Miller,
The Sterling Silver property is To-
Gated on Big creek, just south of the
Yankee Boy and Polaris groups. A
good showing of silver has been made
on the two veins which have been
opened on the property and work on
a lower crosscut tunnel to explore
the two lodges is now under way.
Harry Morrell, we'll known mining
man of the Occur d'Alenes, is in
charge of the work and will use two
shifts in the lower tunnel. The prop
erty is about four miles from the rail-
road and has good wagon road ac-
commodations.
The Silver Belt.
Big creek properties have been at
tracing unusual attention for the past
months on account of the high
price being paid for silver. That Sec
ton in Evolution mining district is
recognized as the silver belt of the
Occur dAlenes and every encourage.
ment is held out to property owners
in that section to carry forward their
development work as rapidly as posi-
BILE and help swell the silver produc-
ton figures of the district. 1t is I'M
the Bunker Hill smelter will
be in the market for all such pres as
the Big creek district can produce,
which affords a close market for the
mines and cuts down the heavy freight
charges to shelters located in other
The Sterling Silver property was
financed entirely on the assessment
basis, through the efforts of Mr..
orders for the stock be-
ing received from nearly every state
IN the union. Ample funds will be
available to thoroughly explore the
property and provide continuous op-
erations.

Last Week..

In the last issue of this p in
mentioning operations of the Lucky
Swede Gold & Copper Mining com
pany, 1t was stated that the crosscut
has now been advanced about 900
feet and should reach the vein within
200 feet and probably less" Morris
Pearson, president of the company,
calls attention to this statement as
misleading, indicating that the main
vein will be cut in about 200 feet,
which Is not correct. While a vein
of Importance should be cut in about
200 feet, the main vein for which the
crosscut is being rum, Mr.. Pearson
is still about 100 feet away.

and the management has every rea-

giving ample power for all require

The Wardner Leasing company
plans an early resumption of opera

ALASKA GOLD DREDGING
SHOWS DECREASE, 1918
LESS THAN IN 1917-CAUSE
OF DECREASE.

Twenty eight gold dredges were OPP
Grated in Alyaska in 1918, producing
$1,425,000 worth of gold, according to
a report on the Alaskan mining
industry just issued by the U. S.
Geological survey, department of the
interior. Twenty-one dredges were in
Seward Peninsula, three in the Idlta-
rod district, and one each in the FAIL
banks, Circle. Yentna, and Kuskokwim
districts, These dredges handled
about 100000 cubic yards of gravel.
In 1917, So dredges handled 300, 900
cubic yards of gravel and recovered
gold worth $4,000, 900. The average
recovery of gold per cubic yard was
about 81 cents in 1918 and IS cents in
1917. The gold dredges of Seward
Peninsula produced gold worth $780,
900 from l, 164,00 cubic yards Of
gravel, making an average recovery
of 40 cents a cubic yard i'm 1913. The
dredges of the Alaska Yukon districts
produced gold worth 1881, 900 from

Platinum From Alaska

The output of platinum, palladium
and other metals of the platinum
group in Alaska in 1918 is estimated
at 2S4 fine ounces, valued at $3.50, 600,
according to the u. s. Geological sur
vey, department of the interior.
Platinum was recovered from the
gold placers Of some districts in
larger amounts and from some in small.
Ter amounts than last year.
One of the most interesting events
of the year in connection with Alaska
mining is the recovery of substantial
amounts of palladium and of some
platinum from the copper ore of the
Salt Chuck mine, near Ketchikan.

Growth of Dredging.

Though dredges were built for use
in the Alaska Yukon as early as 1898
and at Nome in 1900, this method of
placer mining did not reach a profit
able stage until 1908, when two small
dredges were successfully operated in
Seward Peninsula. Dredging began
in the Fortymile district in 1907; in
the Iditarod, Birch Greek, and Fair
banks district in 1872; in the Yenta
district in 1916; and in the Kusko-
kwim region in 1918. A o dredge
was installed in the Fairbanks district
in 1918 and may have begun operat-
ing late in the season. The new dredge
on Candle Creek, in the Kuskokwim
region, was completed in 1918 and OPP
Grated for a short period. UP to the
end of 1918 gold to the value of s19,-
OS5,OO0 had been mined by dredges.
The relatively low recovery of the
dredges in 1918 was due. in part, to
the unusually large amount of frozen
ground encountered in Seward PENN
sula, and in part to the exhaustion of
the relatively rich ground which had
been dredged at Ruby in previous
years.

farmers IN The
STATE ARE BADLY
IN NEED OF help
Chamber of Commerce Has
Many Inquiries for Expert
enCed Men to Work
on Farms.

Although spring work on the Ne
braska farms has not started in full
swing, Mrs. Mabel Walker, head Of
the soldiers employment bureau,
run in connection with the Chamber
of Commerce, has large number of
applications from Nebraska farmers
who are sorely in need of help.
Anticipating an unusually busy
season, Nebraska farmers are filing
their applications for help at the rate
of dozen, or so daily. The wages
range from $45 to 500 month and
in addition, the men who are offered
employment are given their board
and lodging and their laundry. The
employment will continue until after
corn picking next fall.
Married Men Preferred.
The married men are preferred by
the farmers and of course these
farmers who are in the market for
help would rather have men who
were accustomed to farm work prior
to going into the army. Married men
who understand farm work will be
paid 500 month. Not only will they
receive this wage, but they will be
furnished with house, free Of rent,
the use of a COW, a pig and plat of
ground on which to raise garden. In
most instances they will be permit
ted 70 keen chickens. Numerous OF
the applicants for help say that
wives of the farm hands, if they de-
sire, will be permitted to help with
the work around the farm houses
and be we'll paid for the services
rendered.
Up to this time, according to Mrs.
Walker, she has had many more ap-
plications for farm help than she has
been able to fill.
