Comparative statement of ores
marketed from eighteen leading
camps since January 1st to date
J. C. Brrner & Sons are put
ting in a new hoisting apparatus
at the Joanna mine No. 2.
The Lolita is pushing its mil
to completion as fast as possi
ble. and expects to be in posi
t ion to start up bj the first of
May.
Work on the Myrtle property
has started and as soon as the
water can be pumped out, the
mine and mill will be put into
commission.
Rhoades & Sparling are in
stalling machinery at the shal
low shaft west of the church on
the Catholic Forty, where lead
and silicate is found a few feet
from the surface.
The Mascott mine made its
first turn-in of ore during the
oast week, but it did not get it
in time for the weekly report.
This is a new mine and promise

The zinc ore market showed a
decided advance the past week,
reaching a base price of $45.
This is in face of a decline in the
price of spelter. Lead steady at
$50.
Shaft No. 2 of the Memphis
property was put into commiss
ion the past week. Development
will be pushed at this shaft and
the ore taken to the mill as fast
as taken from the mine.
Many of the mines and milk
in the Miami camp have been
idle waiting for pumping to bt
started by the Church diggings,
north of the Emma Gordon,
which is estimated will drain al'
the present camp, and now tha'
this company is about to start,
most of the mills are preparing
to start also. This means a
great revival of the ore output
from the Miami camp.
The Oklah, operating on the
Baxter Royalty Company's lease,
completed its shipment of six
cars of zinc ore, being the largest
single sale of ore from the Baxter-Miami
camp. The six car
brought approximately $8500.
Several cars are still in the bins,
only the amount included in the
sale being loaded out at this
time. This property is now male
10 to 12 tons of high grade con
centrates each day, and it is ex
pected that this output will be
increased to 15 tons per day with
in thirty days.
Messrs. Daugbertv, Harris and
Neusbauw of the Omaha-Petersburg
Mining Company, were in
the camp for several days last
eek, investigating the different
propositions made to tbem by
the different mill building firms,
tor the construction of a big con
centrator on their lands north of
the Mission mill. The most
striking specifications and plan?
submitted ware those by the lo
cal firm of the Hood Implement
Co., which were outlined by
Thomas Hackwood of the East
man Investment Co., introducing
the sizing system on a larpf
scale, following out the construc
tion to apply the same principle
that have worked so satisfactorily
at the Eastman plant. While
this plan is more expensive to in
stall, it has been demonstrated
that when installed it docs the
work and effects a material sav
ing over tne oiner types in use
in the district. It means mud.
to the Baxter camp, the building
f such a mill as is contemplated,
md we hope to be able to report
ihe letting of the contract in the
near future.

OF KEElt INTEREST
TO FARMERS?
Some of the advantages of
Electric Railways to the farmer
are of special interest. He can
take his produce to town in good
or bad weather, in the busy sea
son or the slack, and can chQpse
his market and the time to sell
He can telephone his orders to
town for supplies and receivt
them bv parcel or freight at his
door, instead of hauling long
distances over bad roads. By
arrangement the farmer carfhave
the metropolitan dailies to read
at his breakfast table. He can
visit a hundred miles from home
and return the same day with
greater ease than to drive to the
average town, then wait tbe
Dleasure of the steam train, and
get back the same day "if he
can." He can turn his farm in
to a pasture except a few acres
and make a good return produc
ing milk, rrarden truck andsmal
fruits, which the electric cars
will each day take to a ready
market. The progressive farmer
can in a short time keep in close
touch with the great world around
him and enjoy the broadening in
Suences which always accompany
more frequent intercourse . with
the people at large.
This is always the result of
cheap, convenient and rapid
transportation. Healthful home
life of the country can be main
tained and the children will be
nore reconciled to living on the
farm, instead of flocking to large
centers of population.
There is more meaning in the
above statements than can be
expressed in mere words. Dis
tant cities'are uniting into one
jommercial community and the
dividing line between city and
country is fast fading away. The
quick, convenient and cheap
transportation is working a rap
id and mighty Change in the
modes of life and thought, in the
customs and achievments of the
whole pedple.
There is a class of farmers in
Cherokee County, especially trib
utary to the great Quaker Val
ley, that with the aid of Liter
Urban lines will become inde
pendent from truck, fruit grow
ing and dairy products.
