Herb Weln and associates of John son have leased the old Hearst mine in the Winchester mountains, a property worked years ago by Geo. F. Hearst. The mine has a large vein of qnartz, carrying silver in pockets. The ore will be welcomed for Its silica at the Douglas smelters. Metals company has been running for some time and the concentrates are being hauled to Engle for shipment to the smelter. This company "has been steadily at work since last August and according to reports, some of the ore taken out is too high grade to be shipped the usual ways and is being carried overland to 1 Paso in light trucks. This property, situated 10 miles west of Chloride, is the deepest workings in the district. It has been a wonderful producer and It is said that recent development has demon strated the rein to promise a number of real "bonanza" properties, and it is said Albuquerque parties have had their representatives out quietly buy ing up properties along the same vein. It is known that an Albuquerque man recently purchased a property on this vein, from which he has taken ore go- in tr 3615 to the ton. ao information is obtainable from the management of the company operating the big property, but as extensive improve ments arc being made at both xxdae and mill, and It Is admitted new oro snoots have recently been cut, it fa certain that this activity tiH con tinue and increase during the sum mer and falL Xumeroua Prospects Opened. A number of prospects, have been opened and worked in several parts of th district. Joe Oliver has cat some good looking ore in one of his properties and from present appear ances will soon have a workable body of ore. The eastern parties having options on the tin prospects on the west side of the range from Chloride have been delayed because of the serious illness of tha. principal operator. Also there is no road open by which the boilers and compressor needed to drive the proposed tunnel can be taken over tne mountains. The county commissioners recently declared the survey over the moun tain a public road and road work has been started. This road will be worked as far as the Sliver Monu ment mine and from there on new construction will be necessary. When opened the road will give Bl Paso travel access to the famous cliff dwellings of the Gila and the more famous mud springs, famed for their cures In both mythology and tradi tion. Then a short construction will give El Paso a scenic route to the eoast, connecting with the ocean to ocean route. "WORK COMMOVlVEALTir MIXC Pearce.

Home ties are stronger and there is greater contentment in such a city. Little children quickly grasp the sig nificance of the fact that theirs is a real home. It be comes linked with fond memories and associations which are .carried through life. Thrift is engendered and prosperity induced through saving for such a home.
