EUREKA TO HAVE DAILY
TRAIN SERVICE, Is PLAN

Keeping apace with the rising
prosperity of Eureka, the Eureka
Nevada Railway Company will soon
furnish daily train service between
Eureka and Palisade. AS soon as
the 5000 feet of track to the Ruby
Hill mine are laid, the present sched-
ule will be changed and six trains
will arrive and leave Eureka each
week. No Sunday train win be main
tanned.
Under the new schedule mail will
be received daily. and a passenger
coach will be carried on all trains.
The increase in the number of pas
sengers coming to Eureka, and min
ing supplies. as well as the added
freight facilities needed to handle
the increased production Of ore from
local mines. prompted the increase OF
train service.
When the change will be made II
not definitely known. depending upon
the time that will be required to com
plete the Ruby Hill spur track. l.
T. Herchmer, superintendent of the
Ruby Hill Development Company
announced last week that the work
should soon be completed. and that 3
crew of men had already begun re
ballasting the grade from the depot
to the mines.
Under the new schedule. trains
will leave Palisade for Eureka about
1880 a. m. and returning leave Eu
reka for Palisade at l p. m. This
will require that passengers from the
west. to make close connections. mus
come to Palisade on the Western Pa
cific train which arrives there about
$50 a. m.

ranch at Duckwater I can raise and
feed enough stock to supply all the
consumers in Eureka and the sur
rounding country. My cattle range
to within four or five miles of Eu-
reka, and this is the most convenient
market for them. Heretofore have
taken the most of my cattle to Ely.
But as Ely is 20 miles from my ranch,
while Eureka is only IS miles from

to sell on. / have been supplying
the two meat markets here with meat.
and IL my plans for a packing plant
can be carried out the people will
get still better service.
"The mining success of Eureka
seems assured, and l have confidence
In Its future. My plan is to furnish
the people with fresh meat direct
from the range, and in this way the
public could be given better prices.
With good ranges and large guam

Eureka can be well cared for IL our
plans go through"
The property which was bought

NEW MACHINERY ARRIVES

Work done ct the Eureka-Holly
mine the past week consisted prin-
cipally of preparations for installing
new machinery. Two rs horsepower
crude oil engines and compressor
of 1O-drill capacity were received
during the week. In addition to
these hoist for sinking 1000 feet is
ON the ground ready for early install
lation. An erecting engineer will
come to Eureka next week and start
work on putting the machinery up.
This will not require any great
amount OF time, as concrete founda-
tions are already laid and everything
in readiness to receive the new equip
|ment.

RUBY HILL OPERATIONS
Superintendent Herchusr States
Plan for Dewaierins Mines
Two New Water Tanks
win Be Installed

That the Ruby Hill mine is one OF
the best equipped mines in the State
OF Nevada is q matter of common
knowledge to mining men all over
the country, but the general present
condition of the equipment is not SO
generally known. However, even the
most casual observer who goes
Through the mine can readily see
| thar psaeticaliy every piece OF mnnn~
Iinery Is IN perfect condition.
L. T. Herchmer, superinteadeat for
the n.hyHill Developmsnt Company,
(which is now pushing the work on
the mine. declared that he is very en-
thusiastic over the outlook. The COM
|pany has very definite plan worked
out, and a large sum of money has
been set aside to carry out that plan.
So that with the machinery In perfect
condition as soon as the lower levels
are dewatered and the spur railway
track completed. development work
can be carried on without any pos
sible delay.
The LOGAN shaft, which was sunk
about 1884, is newly timbered to the
900-foot level. and water In the shaft
at present reaches point IS feet be-
low the water level on the end of the
new timbering. The condition of
the shaft below the water level is not
known, but with the efficient pumps
and bailers, which are on the ground
at the mine, the water Is expected to
be speedily removed, and then the
amount of work to be done on the
rest of the shaft will be known.
All the pumps and bailers will be
installed for use as soon as the COM
pany's shipment of coal is received.
Two bailers will be used In handling
the water to a depth as low as pos
sible- Each bailer has 1500-gallon
capacity. After the bailers have
lowered the water to as low a depth
as possible, two sinking pumps will
be installed at that level. These
pumps will force the water to the
station sump which is on the s00-foot
stalled two triple expansion station
pumps, which win raise the water
from the sump to the surface, where
pipes are ready to handle the water.
The capacity or TIA atation pumps is
600 gallons of water a minute, with
a head capacity of 1900 feet. AS the
water is only 215 feet deep, the Lo-
can being a 1200-foot shaft, such a
dewatering system will soon have the
shaft ready for use, 1t is expected.
Mr.. Herchmer expects to have the
LOGAN shaft equipped with 900 feet
of ladders soon. When the water is
removed, the shaft will be sunk 500
feet further and necessary levels run
from that point.
Another improvement that Mr..
Herchmer announced is to be made
is the placing of two 35000-gallon
water tanks on the hill above the
mine for fire protection. These tanks
will be $50 feet above the elevation
of the collar of the LOGAN shaft, SO
that sufficient pressure can be had.
Industrial accident insurance has
been secured for all employees, Mr..
Herchmer said, and a first aid build
ing is to be equipped to care for any
emergency cases that might arise.
During the past week work has
been going forward on the spur rail-
road track, and the rails and ties for
5000 feet of track yet to be laid are
expected to arrive within week or
10 days.

and put into their cOOps during sud-
den storms, otherwise they may hud-
die In some hole or cover, become
chilled, or drown. When the hen is
ON free range it is difficult oftentimes
to find her when a storm approaches
and still harder to catch the chickens.
Keep Chicks Growing.
If the best results are to be OBJ
tanned and a good profit made in
poultry raising, the chicks must be
kept growing constantly. Even short
exposure to cold or wet will check
growth and no matter how short the
check is, the chick will never entirely
recover from 1t.
Young birds are absolutely defense
less and even when cOnstitutionally
strong, are physically frail in COM
pariS0n with most or the creatures
with which they come In contact. For
this reason their range should be In
a yard where they can be protected
from cats, rats, and other enemies.
In localities where hawks and other
preying wild birds trouble the poultry
yard, devices which will protect tie
chicks can be used. These may range
from the time-honored scarecrow to
pieces Of bright-colored cloth or bits
Of shiny tin strung around the coops.
When the enemy birds are unusually
daring, the chicken yard may require
netting over the top to prevent large
losses from these air raids.

Loss From Exposure.

When hens are allowed free range
and have to forage for feed for them
selves and the chicks, they often take
their young through wet grass where
the chicks may become chilled and die.
Most of the feed which the chicks Sc
cure in this manner goes to keep up
the heat of the body, say poultry ex-
perts of the United States department
of agriculture, whereas feed eaten by
chicks that are with a confined hen
produces more rapid growth, as the
young birds do not have so much eX-
erciSe.
Then, too, in most brOOds some
chicks are weaker than the others and
if the hen is allowed free range the
weaker ones often fall behind and
out of hearing of the mothers call.
This frequently results in the death
of these chicks due to their becoming
chilled. If the hen Is confined the
weaklings can always find shelter and
warmth under her, and after a few
days may develop into strong sturdy
chicks.
The loss in young chicks due to al
lowing the hen free range Is large
