MINES SERVICE BUREAU
 TO FILL A GREAT WANT

The MINES SERVICE BUR- EAU has been formed to fill a
 long-felt want in the mining in
 dustry. The experience of it's sponsors in mining engineering
 has shown that the average mine owner does not possess the experience to enable him to place his proposition before capitalists in the proper form.
 Maps are usually lacking, or at best they are poorly made and do not convey the impression they should. The other facts presented by the seller, such as reports, development and pro- duction records, and shelter re- turns are not systematically ar ranged, nor is a digest made summarizing the essential facts to be deduced from such re- cords.
 The purpose of the BUREAU, knowing from experience the essential requirements of both the sellers and buyers of mines, is to correlate and arrange the data submitted by it's patrons, and to furnish a brief digest of the same. Maps, reports. and statistics are compiled in logi- cal order. The resulting state ment is concise, systematic, and convincing, and the facts will be presented in such form that the property will receive the at tention it deserves from legiti- mate capitalists who are search ing for meritorious prospects. The BUREAU is not designed as a sales representative, but aims simply to furnish the seller with a properly arranged digest of facts concerning his property with which he may approach capitalists. 1 cannot vouch for the accuracy of the information nor will it in any way violate the ethics of the mining engineering profession. Charges for the service are moderate and within the means of every owner The office is at AZ Broadway, Room 538, New York City.

cattle perished that one old timer ayers that one could wall from Williams to Red Lake, al the way treading only on the \ carcasses of animals that haC died of thirst.
 Dr. Melick relates how he se- cured permission from Mr. Der. mont to dig down in the bottom of the Saginaw dam at a point where a seep appeared, and there he found little water for
 stock. In this way he gathered
 some 600 head of wild steers,
 trapping them with the water,
 that would probably never have been caught except for
 the drouth. These were driven
 to a Mesa north of Maine where
 a spring crops out and were
 carried thru until rain came
 again. For food they had only i the dry coarse bunch grass
 which, ordinarily, stock will mot eat.
 After a glance at those days,
 it seems a nisnomer to call the
 present a time of drouth. Below
 appears a quotation from the
 Williams News of July 3Oth, 1904, which will prove of inter est, particularly to old resi- dents.
 Rains Every Day Now
 Rains began falling in this section on Thursday of last week. With the exception of Monday, it has fallen every day since, and the volume has been increasing each day. The storm of day before yesterday was one of the heaviest ever seen here. Rain came down in tor rents and the gutters in town were small sized rivers. Dur | ing the past week the range has i greatly improved. Where be- fore no grass was to be seen at 1 all, now the whole country shows up green. Lakes and | tanks everywhere are full and | an abundance of water is now assured till the coming winter. l
 While the rain has been of | ests it has also guaranteed a supply of six or eight months for Saginaw S Manistee Lum- Der Company. The Phelan dam is over half full and the Cauf- | man reservoir also has a good i The lumber company l has a lease on the water in both and is in excellent shape.
 "Wm. Shoot came in yester- day from his ranch at the head of Spring Valley. He says they have had very heavy rains there and that the mud would mire a saddle blanket.
 Bob KinSer was in town this week wearing a very broad smile. We discovered it was due to the wet weather we are having. Bob says all the water holes in the reserve around Anita are filled with water notably Rain Tanks. Shoots dam and Donelson's In fact all the lakes in the country contain more or less water Towards, Red Lake, Davenport and Pitt man valley are all in good shape.
 During the storm Thursday struck tree in front of the R. K. Farnsworth resi- dence, badly shivering it and making the neighborhood. c. E. Boyce also had horse struck at his Spring Valley -anch."
 We of 1921 would like to see a duplicate of that rain within he next two weeks.
