The old Combination mining proper
ty at Philipsburg, which has produced
more than So, 900, 900, again Will be
brought under production, according
to officers Of the Combination Leasing
and Development company, which is
now starting operations
The property was operated successfully
until 1926 when litigation caused a shut
down. However, operations now are being
resumed following a recent decision Of
the circuit court of appeals, made re-
Gently at San Francisco.
The circuit court Of appeals affirmed
the judgment of the federal court OF
Montana in the suit to quiet title,
brought by Clara Mcclure Jones against
Ions Maury and others Of Butte. Mrs.
Jones represented the heirs of Charles
d. Mcclure estate. The suit involved
/ 900 acres of patented mining claims Of
Granite county, appraised at 100000,
and represented q large portion OF the
Charles D. Mcclure estate.
Under the management OF w. k. Nc
Lure, the old property will be opened up
by the development company. 1t Will be
put into shape Immediately and accord
ing to officers of the company. from two
to three cars of ore a week Will be
shipped to the smelters.
The company expects to build a 100
ton mill on the property this summer
and work the old mine dumps and tall
ings.
The Combination property is reported
to be one of the most valuable mining
holdings of Granite county. At the time
the ownership of the mining properties
became in dispute the Combination
Leasing and Development company, con-
trolled by Missoula capital, was operating
the property.
Mr.. Mcclure died a number of years arc
and left an estate appraised between
$500, 900 and 5000. 900. OF that amount
the mining property involved represent
ed an appraised valuation OF 5000, 600.
Through court procedure the entire
estate was put up for sale and was pur-
chased by Ions Maury OF Butte. The state
supreme court confirmed the purchase
Action was then instituted by Clara Nc
Lure Jones In the federal court of Mon
tana in respect to N mining claims OF
Granite county. 1t was the contention
Of Mrs. Jones that the father, Charles H,
Mcclure, had transferred the property To
William Mcclure. who in turn decided 1t
to her to be held In trust for the heirs.
The federal court decided In favor of
Mrs. Jones. Mr.. Maury then carried the
case to the circuit court OF appeals at
San Francisco, where he lost again.
Missoula mining men and those inter-
ested in the company believe that the
development work to be carried on by
the company will be al important min
ing development for the western Mon
tana district.

Baby specialists agree nowadays. that
during the first six months, babies must
have three ounces OF fluid per pound Of
body weight daily. An eight pound baby.
for instance, needs twenty-four ounces
Of fluid. Later on the rule is two ounces
OF fluid per pound of body weight. The
amount Of fluid absorbed by a breast fed
baby Is best determined by weighing him
before and after feeding for the whole
day; and it is easily calculated for the
bottle fed one. Then make up any de-
hciency with water.
Giving baby sufficient water often re-
ieves his feverish, crying, upset and rest
