PLACER SEASON
 BEST IN HISTORY

The spring season of 1921 is5 the best in the history of the Round Mountain Mining company since in stalling the hydraulicking process. During the month of May the clean up of the head boxes brought the company $26,000 from the sluicing of 24,OOO yards. To date 6S,OO0 yards have ben removed and the recovery has remained at the uniform rate of $1 per yard in the head boxes, indi- eating values of $1.50 per yard when the main tail race has been cleaned up and the cleaning of bedrock has been completed. This result has been gained by operating two giants "A hours daily and with force of 60 men. The season is officially ad- mitted to be the best in six years.-- Tonopah Times.

ENGINEERING AND MINING
 JOURNAL CARRIES ARTICLE
 ON KATHERINE SECTION

The Engineering and Mining Jour- nal, in its issue of June IS, devotes two pages to the Katherine section. This publication, premier of its kind in the United States, had taken mo- tice of the stir in this wonderful gold district and had wired its local COZ respondent, s. Ford Eaton, for a story. The story is we'll told and will do much toward letting the outside world know of the golden possibilities in the Katherine section-this gold only waiting for capital and brains to turn it into Illegal tender".
 This is more evidence that New York is taking notice of the Katherine district and it is not improbable that New York brokers already have had scouts in the district looking it over.

Credit Belongs to Franklin.

Everybody knows that the versatile
franklin was the originator Of many
things. But few realize that he was
the first American cartoonlst. Join
or Die" the familiar sketch Of the
chopped-up serpent, with each piece
representing one of the Colonies, was
entirely the work of Franklin. Even
the cutting of the type-metal was
done by his own hands. This first
newspaper cartoon appeared In the
Pennsylvania Gazette, May 8. 1854,
and was device for urging united
action upon the Colonies at the time
of the. French and Indian wars. II
may he noted also that he engraved a
map Of the siege Of Loulsburg and
published ii in the Gazette. This is
said to have been the earliest attempt
at illustrating news.--Asa Don Dickin-

HAVE BEER ALWAYS ON "TAP"
rican Tribe, but Little Drunk
enness is Reported.

Among the Madi or Moru tribes of
the White Nile in Africa, there ex-
lists a form of municipal brewery that
would make great hit among the
thirsty in America. A special house
is set aside for it, and all the women
in making beer from millet seed.
White men who have tasted it de-
clare it to be first-rate drink of
fine flavor and heady results The
beer is kept in enormous jars, and
to each jar is attached number Of
gourd dlppers. The beer is free TO
anyone or everyone, the only re-
striction being that It be drunk in
the brewery and not with meals. In
spite of this freedom the tribe men,
bers seldom get drunk.
To make sure their women will stay
on as brew-masters and not go running
off with other men from nearby tribes,
the girls are taken when ten or twelve
years old and laid on the ground while
a sharp stone is used to pry and knock
out the four upper and lower incisors.
The resulting effect is anything but
beautiful--as the intention was. The
clothing of the women consists of a
string worn around the waist, and
changed only when II gets so dirty
that it cannot be seen against the
dark sllin.-Detroit News.

FARMER OWES MUCH TO MULE
Animal Is Hard and Rugged Worker
and Almost Indispensable in
Many Localities.

The mule, like everybody else, has
his place He is considered bad
actor. Fathers caution their sons
about going near any animal with long
ears and rOpy tail. The sons know
what the animal will do because they
have been looking over the funny
paper" each Sunday and were de-
lighted in seeing the mule fold up and
let loose with a kick that sent "a man
through the side of barn or over
the fence. But in spite Of this un-
desirable advertising the mule is with
us today on more farms than ever
before. He is Il hard and rugged
worker and is especially adapted to
the more billy farms of our agricul-
tural sections. Even through the
Middle West there are some counties
that have more mules than horses. In
1867, the mules of the United States
numbered $4,000, with an average
value Of $G6.94. In 1890 the number
was 2,32l 900, valued at $7S.25. BY
1914 the number had increased to
4,123.000, with value of $119.S4 per
head. On January /, 1920, the num-
Der was 100000 and the value per
head was $147.

popularity, In many localities taking
the place of the horse, and has also
