Much
Publicity For
Libby Mines
Montana Oil and Mining
Journal Will Publish
Descriptive Article.
TO HAVE WIDE
CIRCULATION

That the Libby mining district is tn
receive tine piece of publicity was in
d!cated the first of the week by the
visit here Of A. H. Raymond. repre-
sentlng the Montana Oil and Minin~
journal of Great Falls. Mr.. Ravmon3
was mere In conference with H. c. Boil
yard and with Mr.. Bolyard visited
number OF the more promising mining
properties hereabouts and gathered in
formation regarding each one.
Mr. Raymonds plan is to incorporate
the information obtained into an arti-
Gle descriptive of mining possibilities
IN this section. He then plans Ia send
copies OF this issue to over two tho,1-
sand mining brokers and investors and
expects to obtain inquiries from quite
number of them.
Mr.. Raymond stated that there ara
a considerable number OF responsible
brokers who are in touch with moneved
men who are willing to invest rea-
sonably large sums in mining prop
critics that give fair promise OF deveI-
oping INTO paying propositions. Espec-
Tally IS this true of gold properties. He
considers this one of the best times to
launch such publicity drive for the
reason that brokers have had mighty
light business for two or three years
and will work hard now to interest
capital In worthy projects. Further
more, men with money are looking for
promising gold properties and the right
KIND OF publicity may result in inter
esting a few groups of substantial men
in this district.
i am very favorably impressed with
the showing in this district" said Mr..
Raymond Il have visited most Of the
mining sections of the state and MANY
OF the Northwest and | feel that the
Libby district has many superior char
acteristics. In some OF the districts /
have visited the mineral bodies have
proven to be OF relatively shallow depth
and play out soon. Here, however. the
formation Is such that one can rest
assured the ore bodies are dcep seated
and It is natural to expect them to
increase IN size and richness with
depth. This has proven true IN the
Occur d'Alenes and inasmuch as the
characteristics of the two districts ara
argely similar, | expect to see the
same condition prove true here. I
believe conditions are now about right
n the Libby district to attract the at
entlon of the mining world The Mon
ana Oil and Mining Journal expects
o help push along this development
y giving this district some helpful

Camp Is Being
Equipped, Electric
Lights Installed
Other Development Work Is Keeping
Men Busy on Comet Placer
Gold Property.

"A visit to the scene of operations
at the Comet placer at the, junction of
Little Cherry and Libby creeks shows
commendable activity In former years
four substantial log buildings were
erected there. New roofs and floors
have been put in these and other sub
stantial improvements made. A tele-
phone line has been installed connect
ing with the Libby exchange, and con-
siderable good work done on the short
stretch OF road connecting the camp
site with the county road. An cleo
trio light plant has been installed Of
sufficient capacity to light the buildings
and works.
The dam at the diversion point on
the Little Cherry will be improved,
stated G. w. Patterson, engineer in
charge of development, and it is pos
sible diversion works will be built on
Cable and Bear creeks whereby the
flow OF those creeks can be turned into
the Little Cherry whenever it is so
desired. That would assure a super
abundance of water. it is said 1t is
further stated that sufficient pipe is
on the ground to run a pipe line from
the intake to the mouth Of Little Cherry
creek where it is planned to begin
sluicing not later than next spring
During the past summer, James Ma
honey has had few men at work
sluicing at this point, using one giant.
According to report he has made good
wages for himself and men all sum-
mer and recently ran through con-
siderable yardage that averaged from
40 to 50 cents yard, 50 it is said

A Commendable Little Publication.

County Superintendent of Schools,
Mrs. Carrie LaMunyan, has handed
this newspaper two copies of fine
little publication recently started by
the Iowa Flats school 1t is called THE
Booster and is six page publica-
ton first typewriter and then printed
by some reproducing machine. Each
publication is full of little articles and
much school news, all the product of

Forty million bushels Of wheat

Hour to feed hungry men, women and
children, ground into feed for starving
livestock, have been distributed in The
past year into every State in the Union
by your Red Cross. The products Of
this government wheat has gone to
more than 10 million people, sufferers
from unemployment and prolonged
drought
There has been no charge 10 the
beneflciaries There has been no profit
to the millers. The Red Cross has Maid
the cost of administering this extra
ordinary relief task, one of the most
diIIlcult 1t has ever undertaken.
But this has not been the only serv-
ice OF the Red Cross during the past
year OF the world wide economic crisis
Approximately 2,7O0 Chapters of the
he'd Cross have directly aided in many
ways IN mitigating the suffering due
TO unemployment in their communities
Disasters that come regardless of
boom times or depression" have
been met and relief and rehabilitation
provided for the victims. The Red Cross
has extended relief in so disasters the
past year, including the continued
drought disaster in the northwest and
the destructive tornado that swept
through parts Of five southern states.
IT has maintained its established serv
ices tor war veterans and in the field
Of health.
The demands upon the Red Cross in
tne present peace-crisis have indeed |
been heavy and continuous. They have
depleted Red Cross resources, nation
ally and locally.
In the Roll Call this year, we must
appeal to the people for even more |
support than they have given
q the past. We must have more mem
oers than our present four million,
larger contributions, if we are to full |
III our obligations.

The three county commissioners
draw no stated salary but are paid
at the rate of $500 per day for what
