Heads Corporation Controlled En-

Operates Garnet Mine in Alaska and
Lead, Zinc and Silver Mines
In Arizona.

New York-From the far West
there now comes to us the lady miner,
Miss Anna Durkee, organizer and con-
trolling element of a S1,OOO'OOO cor
poration run entirely by women. Miss
Durkee operates q garnet mine IN
southern Alaska and lead, zinc and Sill
yer mines In Arizona. She is the lar
gest individual mine owner in the Cat
man district of Arizona, and the most
widely known woman in the mining
world.
1t was while she was in Alaska seven
years ago, investigating a proposition
in copper, that Miss Durkee first be-
came interested In garnet mine, was
given an option on it and finally took
ii over in the name of corporation
which had board of 10 women direc-
tors.
At the beginning the mine did not
seem to amount to great deal, but
as Miss Durkee began to develop the
first claim with which the corporation
started, veins were discovered opening
out In every direction, and as the work
continued the amazing fact dawned
that the entire mountain was gigan-
tic mine Of the beautiful crystals, with
lodges of garnets extending from the
sea level to distance Of 5000 feet

But the greatest value Of the deposit
consists in by-product of garnet

MINERAL MATTER FOR SWINE
Mixture Of Charcoal, Salt, Ashes, Sui
phur and copperas Will Tend to
Prevent Worms.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
1t has been asserted by various ex-
perienced feeders of hogs that a mix
ture of charcoal, ashes, lime, salt, sui
phur and copperas kept where the hogs
can eat it will tend to prevent worm
infestation. There is no positive ex-
detrimental evidence, however, in sup
port of the idea that such a mixture
will prevent worm infestation, and it
is of value therefore as a source of
mineral matter in the diet, and per-
haps as an appetizer and tonic, rather
than as worm preventive. A bal
anced ration may furnish all the nee
essary feed nutrients, yet the system
of the hog Graves mineral matter. The
mineral matter is not under control,
and in order to make sure that the
hogs have an abundant supply, free ac
cess should be given to a mineral mix
ture. The following is a formula for

Ogilvie was making a great show of

He was making a sudden dive for his
hotel when the gentle voice of the
Mexican hailed him.
"Will you come TO my car? It's on
the siding right here. We can have a
little lunch and then look over some
maps together. l have some pictures
of the river and the gate. They may
be new to you"
Richard spent the afternoon in the
car. The twin towns did not seem so
hostile. He thought he might like the
Mexican.
Estrada was earning his fathers
mantle He was the superintendent
of the road which the Overland Pa
cific was building between the twin
towns and the Crossing; a director of
the Desert Reclamation company, and
the head of small subsidiary COM
pany which had been created to pro-
tect rights and keep harmonious rela-
ton with the sister country. Richard
found him full of meat. and heard, for
the first time conSecutively, the story
of the rakish river. Particularly in
teresting TO him was the relation of
Hardin to the company.
''He has the bad luck. that man -
exclaimed Estrada's soft, musical
voice. Everything is in his hands,
capital is promised. and he goes to
New York to have the papers drawn
up. The day he gets there the Maine
is destroyed. Of course capital is shy.
He's had the devils own luck with

have waited for the three months to

land. thought he'd interest those men
with his maps and papers. He owned
all the data then. He'd made the sur

Estrada repeated the story BrnndON

"Or over-astuteness, or procrastina-

He knew now what it was that had
so changed Hardin. A man cannot

strong influences. He had been thrown
with hard men. strong men. 1t was
an inevitable chiseling, not u miracle.

some of their prejudices. Nothing, he
summed up, could be guessed from the

WoOster's antagonist was open and
snappish. Silent was to be watched
and Hardin had already shown his
hand.
The river, as he thought of it. ap-
