PLANT To
START THIS MONTH

The new plant of the Red River
Lumber Company sulphur mines at
Sulphur, this county, will be ready
for operation April 81, according to
A. J. Crowley. the superintendent and
ineyntor of the new process of sui
phur extraction. who visited this city
yesterday.
The salient point in the new
process is economy. according to
Crowley, while the principle is CEN
trifugal extraction, which will handle
all the high grade screenings which
have been aecumulating at the mine
since operations began in 1858. The
old method of extracting sulphur Is
best described by "stewing in a ket-
tle,' and because of inefficieney of
this method about $4,000 tons are
available on the dump which contain
about seventy per cent.
The new sulphur plant will be
big thing for Humboldt county,
paying bullion tax of $4,000 year
and giving employment to about sixty
men. After starting one shift will
be run for two weeks and then three
shifts will be put on and the plant
run to full capacity.
Most of the product will go into the
fertilizing field, there being sufficient
demand in Idaho, Oregon and Nevada
to take care of a production of $4,000
tons of sulphur per year. The COM
psny has been encouraging this use
of the product by supplying county
agents with sulphur for the last two
years for experimental purposes. It
is a little early to predict results,
Crowley said, but in other states yield
of alfalfa land has been increased
200 to 300 per cent by application of
100 pounds of sulphur to each acre.

REACH SETTLEMENT
IN HYDRANT SCRAP

tentative agreement In the mat
ter of suitable fire hydrant rental
was reached at conference of the
mayor. city council, representatives
of the Winnemucca Water & Light
Company. and State Engineer Scrug-
ham, held in the city hall Tuesday
afternoon. Although nothing was
said at the meeting which is binding
to either side, 1t is believed the steps
taken will be adopted within a few
days.
According to the agreement, the
city is to make monthly payments to
the company of sixteen per cent on
an investment of $4,000, the amount
required to put the fire water system
in its present condition. This is to
be apportioned at 71a per cent for
interest on investment, 21h per cent
for taxes, 3 per cent for operation
and 3 per cent for depreciation.
According to this ruling, If it is ac-
cepted, the city may have as many
hydrants as desired without payment
of additional money. This is the
point that has caused discussion
heretofore, the city claiming that IL
additional rental is required each
time hydrant is installed such ex-
ira payment would act as deterrent
in future Improvement of fire-fighting
conditions.
The new rate is slightly higher to
the city, but If adopted it is thought
it will stop controversies and permit
progress in fire protection matters

Word received here from Carson
City is to effect that the Chinaman
arrested by Chief of Police Kize
Lamb and Sheriff Brady at the Kent
ranch, near Golconda, short time
ago, is probably the wrong man and
may be released. 1t is believed the
arrest was caused by a mistake on
the part of federal officers in their
search for a Chinaman who shipped
trunk to China which was confis-
Gated on its return trip to this city
filled with 230 cans of opium. The
Chinaman arrested is called Wong
Jim, when his name really should be
reversed, it is said, to Jim Wong.

WORK ON CHEMICAL
BUILDING RUSHED

Work on the Silver State Chemical
Company's reduction plant is being
pushed as fast as possible. The
trenches for the foundations are
practically completed and gravel and
sand are on the grounds. A road
from the edge of town to the site
will be started this week. The we'll
which was started several days ago
has reached depth of fifty feet. The
first strata of water has been reached,
but the shaft will be sunk to the Sec
ond. A pump and engine have been
purchased and 1t is expected they
will supply approximately 100000 gal
Ions of water daily, this being the
amount needed for the operation of
the various departments. This
amount is hoped to be obtainable
within the next few feet
Arrangements have been completed
for spur leading from the Southern
Pacific main line to the site and work
will be commenced on this in the near
future.
A great deal of machinery and
structural steel has been ordered and
one or more corloads of lumber are
expected in any day. A carload Of
cement has been unloaded and a con-
crete mixer is being purchased. If
all goes well, it Is the hope of Man.

are found to contain very valuable
metals, and some materials not known
in the past.

night highly commended the under
taking of this company and expressed
the belief that within the near future
it will be one of the leading plants of
this section of the country and will
