Payton has located a number of claims in the mountains near Prai rie City but spends most of his time on a quartz mine which he works with a partner. They have a small mill, operated by water power in which the ore is crushed, treated and the gold rescued by passing over copper plates. He says the past winter was mod. crate with little snow but in ordi nary winters they have from two to three feet of snow and the winter of 1932-33 they had it 32 below zero. The elevation is between 4000 and 5000 feet which disagrees with Mrs. Payton s hen.lt h and she will stay in Monmouth for the summer.
