MUCH ACTIVITY
At THE cOMsTOcK

The United Comstock Mines com
pany of Gold Hill is continuing to ap-
ply every ounce of engineering and op-
Grating strength and resources into
completing at the earliest date possible
the mining and milling project at the
south end of the Comstock lode, and
as the progress being made with the
building program at the town of Com
stock and at the portal of the haulage
tunnel,is noted only amazement can be
expressed. Covering nearly square
mile i'll area, this gigantic undertaking
is forging ahead by leaps and bounds
and while speed is the apparent slogan
i'll the pushing forward OF this work,
no detail is being overlooked making
for thorough workmanship and per-
manency OF the building installations.
During the past two months the Am
erican Flat Operations have changed
the appearance of the entire section and
astonishment fittingly, describes the
impression gained by the occasional
visitor to this great enterprise. From
one end OF the town Of Comstock to
the other activity is in evidence
Something over twenty cottages are
now up and occupied or i'll the process
of building, and work has already been
started in rebuilding the bungalows
destroyed by fire last week. The
broad residential street has been
graded and presents most attractive
appearance. The lodging house and
dining hall are functioning to capa-
city and grading from the portal of
the tunnel is well under way and the
tracks extend in every direction
The concrete mixer and pouring de-
vice is making some record runs these
days, and foudation walls and floors
are being poured for the various units
of the mill buildings. warehouses, ma
chine shops, etc. The outline of the
entire mill installation is beginning to
show itself. and it is readily to be
seen why this project is easily the
greatest of its kind on this continent
To the south the Nevada Contract
ing Company is excavating for the cy-
anide department building with steam
shovel working it's wy back and forth
across the site and with teams hauling
off the material.
The undertaking is giving employ
ment to large force of men. well over
the SOC mark, and with continuance
OF favorable conditions from weather
standpoint. great strides will be made
this winter toward the objective of the
company. which is to have the wheels
turning next summer. Underground
the tunnel is being driven forward for
the final connections between the
Knickeroockcr and the Bclcher
headers
The operations OF the United Com
stock Mines Company arc without
doubt the greatest single undertaking
in the entire history of the Comstock
district and are without doubt the
opening gun i'll campaign of mining
development along the entire lode of
various other companies.

MIR. Russell said The financing o1
farmers and stock growers in Ne
vada with the money made available
through the war finance corporation
act has proved complicated matter
where the loans are to be handled
through the banks. largely because OF
the many restrictions provided i'll our
national and state banking laws. II
is to avoid this complication, to re-
lieve the banks of the many competi-
tors they face in this connection. and
to insure. so far as possible, the max
imum relief OF the agricultural and
livestock industry of this state and
tributary territory that the new loan
agency is being organized"
The conference lasted all day and
consisted OF discussions OF the matter
by the executive committee in the
morning, with the executive commit
tee, and several bankers present in

have to be sold in sacrifice sales 9th
erwise.
In talking Of the great danger to
the state if this happens, Secretary
Metcali said
From statewide point OF view,
this is most undesirable, as the herds
of the state and the market for Nevada
hay viii be seriously reduced through
forced sales. This means more when
we realize that Nevada has been and
is producing more hay than she has
stock to consume or any other market
available for. and this means lack OF
ability for many farmers to realize
upon their crops. with consequence
that bills cannot be met and all busi-
ness is affected.
Further. forced sales usually means
sacrifice prices and sacrifice sales
largely fix the price for all livestock.
livestock products and hay. This ap-
pears to me as one OF the most i'm
portant movements OF the past two
years, looking to the safety and well
fare OF Nevada's livestock and ranch
ing industry"
In closing MIR. Mctcalf said: Quick
action is needed. as under the present
war finance corporation act no appli-
cations for new loans will be acted
upon after, July !, 1922"
