The venture is said to have the back- iins of the Continental Creamery Com- | pany of Topeka, Kansas, one of the | largest concerns of its kind in the United States. A. Jensen, who has recently estab- lished a creamery in the Ferndale sec- tion of the county, is sald to be the | representative of the Topeka firm and it is known that he has already caused | somewhat of a flurry among the butter | makers by offering to pay the farmers of the district higher prices for butter fat than the long established concerns | |\were payng. Mr. Jensen was in San | Francisco some time ago and while | here he made no secret of his plans. | His intention was to centralize the | business by establishing a central depot | | for the delivery of milk and to operate | creameries only within a certain dis- trict. | It is not definitely known whether | Jensen has succeeded in interesting any | of the creamery people in his scheme, but it is known that he is operating his new creamery to full capacity, and he already controls 15 per cent of the 5ou(put in the Ferndale district. Leading butter men, when interview- ed yesterday, said that while these re- | ports were true, there was no im- | mediate cause for alarm. It was not | considered possible to control the out- put of butter in Humboldt County, where competition has always been \ keen, and any attempt in that direction | could be frustrated by a concerted move on the part of local dealers. It was also said that the firm which Jensen represents was engaged in the manufacture of creamery machinery and that his main object in operating !a creamery was to demonstrate the superiority of the machinery turned out | by that firm. It is certain, however, that the move- ! ment is on foot and if the promoters | succeed in forming a combine the local | interests will suffer. —_———————— Last Chance to See World’s Fair.

State Mines IN HUMBOLDT |PLUMAS AND SISKIYOU ARE ALERT Mineralogist Supplements Work Some of the mining counties of Cali- fornia are wisely seizing opportunities to advertise their mineral resources to the world at large. . Nevada County loses few chances in this direc..on. At- tention is called this morning to some general statements that are made on authority relating to Plumas and Sis- kiyou counties. ist for 1903 that the mineral output of Plumas County in 1903 amounted to $424,8%4, this including gold, copper, silver and manganese. Siskiyou Coun- ty produced in 1903, in gold, silver and mineral waters, a value of $663,598. The State Mineralogist does for many counties, in compact form, what is needed by them by sending out 2 new bulletin in which their mineral resources are epitomized. One para- graph in this bulletin, which is devot- ed to a general view of mines and minerals of California, shows the va- riety of mineral products that can be credited to all of the several counties of the State in 1903 as follows: As far as number of substances produced in each of the different counties is concerned, it may be stated that in 1903, Los Angeles County shows a production of 16 different sub- San Bernardino, 14; Riverside, 11; Kern, Santa Barbara and Shas ;_Santa Clara and Ventura, 9 each . ‘Monterey, San Diego and San Luis Obispo, 8 each: Butte, Inyo, Sacramento, Solano and Sonoma, i each; Alameda, Madera and Tu- lare, 6 each apa, Santa Cruz, Trinity and Tuolumne,5 eac! laveras,Colu: Contra Costa, Nevada, Plumas and Stanisla: 4 cach; Humboldt, Marin, Mariposa, Orange, San Henite, San Francisco, San Mateo and tyou, 3 each; \lpme. El Dorado, Lake, San Joaquin, Sierra, Te- ch; Del Norte, Kings, 1 each. The attentive reader by referring to the bulletin, which is numbered 35, will find the amount and value of each mineral produced by any county, un- der the several county headings. The statistics of California mineral produc- tion in 1903 have already been fully reviewed in The Call. The following supplementary general statements, taken from the bulletin, are calculat- ed to attract the attention of outsid- ers to the mines of California: EPITOME OF MINING. The mining interests of the State of Cali- fornia are so diversified, and the industry is extended over so wide an area, that it is diffi- cult to describe the conditions which exist with- out using many pages of printed matter. For this reason it has been considered proper, in_this pamphlet. to give merely a record of recults, which will show in plain figures what is being accomplished by the miners of the State. This record shows that some forty-four mineral substances are being exploited, the an- nnel valuetion of which is now $37 increasing at the rate of about $2,500,000 yearly, as capital is invested and more mines | are opened. The older mines, too, having been | we!l developed und equipped, are Increasing their annual output, and thus also proving their permanency and value with depth. The climatic conditions are favorable to mining operations thiroughout the State, and means of {ransportation have been so im- proved as to greatly lessen costs of suppiles, etc. There are abundant opportunities for the safe and profitable investment of capital in the various branches of the industry, as numerous claims which have been located have never been groperly devéloped or equipped, their owners lacking the necessary means. In the previous year-the total product was valued at safioernofi. ®0 that the increase for 1908 is $2,689,835, The total value of the metallic substance: (including precious metals) for 1903 was $20, 856,688, which includes gold, silver, mineral paint, quicksilver, copper, lead,” manganese, The silver s given in commercial value, or amount received for it | | Sunday of the PRESENTED.

These substances include bo- rax, coal, chrysoprase, mineral waters, salt, infusorial earth, gypsum, magnesite, pyrit lthia mica, Fuller's earth, quartz crystals, mica, soda, tourmaline and turquoise. The total value of hydro-carbons and gas was $7,945,273, an increase of $2,760,886.

These materials include brick and pottery clays, Portland cement, lime and limestone, ‘macadam, rubble and concrete rock, paving blocks, marble, granite, sandstone, ser- pentine, sl s sand and ‘soapstone. The relative value of the principal mineral products of the State is as follows: First, gold; second, petroleum; third, copper: fourth, clays and their products; fifth, quicksilver; { sixth, rubble; seventh, cement. COUNTIES TO THE FORE. Mining interests in, Plumas County | receive attention in a county publica- tion that has just been issued. county has all the needed accessories to mining, water in abundance, and an ample supply of timber. Gold mining has been a leading factor in the prop- erty of Plumas since the days of the pioneers. First came the exploitation It is officially estimated that the Span- ish ranch and La Porte districts, both | of which continue to yield treasure, have produced in gold not less than $50,000,000 in total. Within the past two years river placer mining has been greatly - stimulated. By going deeper the -coarser gold that was not found kv the pioneer miners has been saved. Twelve miles of riverbed below Sal- mon Falls will soon be laid bare by the operations of a power company. “While most of the shallow deposits caused by breaks from ancient river channels have been mined,” says the | county publication, “many deeper gcld-bearing gravel beds or parts of ancient channels are available for | sluice or by hydraulic mining, notably |in the Meadow Valley basin.” It is predicted that activity in drift mining will largely increase the out- put of gold in Plumas County. Only the quartz mines of high-grade ores in the county have received full atten- ticn. There are two quartz belts that run through the county. Copper is known to exist largely in Plumas. Claims have not been worked to any extent simply because of the lack of transportation and the means of re- duction. When the county has rail- ways enough for its use the mining industry will become much more prominent. The Scott Valley Advance says: From the Salmon Mountains to the coast, distance of nearly one hundred miles, lies on of the best prospecting countries in the world, and is only awaiting prospectors and capital. People by “the thousands rush_to Alaska and other places, risk their lives and money, and then find out that ‘the same amount of energy and money spent in Siskiyou County would have brought them better returns. We have many low grade propositions throughout the Salmon that will pay big returns if proper machinery was put in, also many prospects yet undeveloped which only need depth to become paying properties, and many carry free gold on the surface.’ This runs to sui- phates at or near water level, that will pay if the sulphates could be handled. Tons upon tons of these sulphates are run off in the tail- ings on account of not having smelters to work them. 1t s a rough count not even a good trail drawback. some parts. Our main trouble mines have never been boomed. Capital | drawn into mines by booming mining cam and creating excitement. This we have nev done. Our county has been one of the leading | £old producers in the country, yet it has never been boomod ltke other counties. This county | has been slowly but steadily coming to the front on fts merits a gold producer, al- though the news of many of our rich strikes have never reached the outside world. Ths fleld 1s here and the gold is here, and ali we want is capital to develop our hidden treasure. ORGANIZE A DISTRICT. The miners in the Masonic mountain district in Mono County recently met and adopted rules for the government of the district. The boundaries were | defined as extending to a point flve, miles north of the old Pittsburg shatt, | thence south ten miles, east five miles, | 1 west ten miles, north five miles.

Cleary will put up a 10-stamp mill at his mine on Indian Creek, near Murphys, that will be run by electric power from the Utica mine. A final payment of $25,000 is reported to have been made upon the Monu-! mental mine in the Shelly Creek dnl«' trict, Del Norte County, by the Waldo company. The working force includes ' 145 men. The mine was bonded about| a year ago. The power drills in the Ida Mitchell mine near Placerville have been started by electricity.

WHAT OVERWORK REALLY MEANS What a long story is condenséd in that one { which Mrs. Frye uses in her letter—as_ it " were a matter of course, How many persons ever stop to realize that "oven work” simply means that their vitality has not been sufficient for the duties of the day—the work has probably been no more than a normally healthy per- ot Instead of calling it “over-work” it would be truer to speak of it as—"“Under-vitality.” Remember, your strength is not in your muscles— the muscles simply work when the nerve force tells Even your brain does not work by itself— the substance in your brain cells depends on getting energy with which to do its work; and this energy is nerve force—the same great power-of-life that actuates every function of the body. Every form of weakness, or sickness, or disease, results from a lack of the strong nerve force which should keep the organs working properly. ‘When one speaks of “a good constitution,” ome simply means a sound, strong nerve system. When the nerve system is not strong and well it follows inevitably that ome is easily “over-worked"—easily run down—just as Mrs. Frye “As a tonlc and invigorater | am sure nothing equals Raine’s Cerely Compound. 1 have it always on hand. “When weak and nervous, or restless from overwork, a dose of it soothes and strength- ens me so that | wake up bright and re- freshed, and fully capabl a strenuous day’s work.”—Mrs. Anna Frye, 122 DeKalb Ave., Brookiyn, N.
