Newspaper Page TextFKIUAV, AUGUST 23, 1011 VANGUARD MINE SHOWS WIDE VEIN OP ORE WEEKLY ROGUB RIVER COURIER PAGE 8KVICN Among the many valuable mining properties of Josephine county Is the property of the Vanguard Gold and Copper Mining company, located 7 miles west of Kerby. Officers of the company are Samuel Bowden. George Calhoun, W. r. Home. H. C. Dixon, and Charles Phillips. The property consists of four claims along the same ledge run ning up a steep mountain, which fur nishes an ideal tunnel site near the base of the hill. Mr. Bowden Is man ager of the mine, and he has pro jected a tunnel 5x7 on the vein and Is running In on ore, which Is a heavy sulphide, gold and copper, and Iden tical with the Almeda. The two ores cannot be told apart from a physical standpoint. This -tunnel Is now In 80 feet, along the hanging wall, and the breast Is all ore. How wide the ore body Is, is not known as no croBs cut has been made to the foot wall. That It Is a large body. Is evidenced by all geological conditions. The bore has gone In without a single set of timbers, except 'at the mouth of the tunnel, where one set holds the entrance firmly. , Timber for mining Is abundant and of the best quality. Water for a treatment plant Is accessible, more than can ever be used. It Is the Intention of the principals to arrange for funds with which to Bend the tunnel In 300 feet further. The hill will give this tunnel 1,500 feet depth, or rather 1,500 feet of Hacks. This means that a vast ton nage can be stoped and handled by gravity. Also that not a drop of water will have to be pumped. It will be the cheapest and most satis factory of all underground mining. The ore body will be crosscut from time to time as the tunnel goes In, thus will Mr. Bowden be able to com pute at any time his tonnage blocked out. Speaking of the .mine Manage! Bowden said: "While this property can not be called a low grade mine, yet we will call this one to predicate what I wish to say regarding ores In this county, and that is, that It is the big low grade mines that will make Josephine county great as a mining reelon. There is more wealth added to the nation and to the world in general each year from low grade mines than from high grade mines. The high grade do not have the tonnage so per sistent In continuity as the big low grade mines, like our Vanguard for Instance. We have a valuable proper ty, and It will make one of the big mines on this coast." A. H. MOCK GETS I FINE SALMON CATCH j He hooked 7 more which he lost.

SURVEYORS BUSY IN THE MERLIN YARDS Busy Saturday at Merlin was a surveying party in the employ of the Southern Pacific, and on all sides at that ttown, the question was, "will a line be surveyed from here Into Illi nois valley?" The surveying crew was busy around the depot 'property and no stralght-away work has yet been un dertaken. Whether it Is a fact that Mr.O'Brien intends to chastise Grants pass, wnetner he Is bluffing or whether the work at Merlin Is merely local is the present question. Arrival of the surveyors has caused no excitement on the real estate ex change of that city. ; Lice kill your profits quickly and surely. Don't tolerate the pest in your chicken yard.

Elliott, State Forester, Sal- era, Oregon. My Dear Mr. Elliott: Since the re ceipt of your communication asking my aid in securing a proper federal allotment of funds for use In the pre vention and suppression of forest fires in Oregon, I have taken this matter up with renewed activity and have had the matter before both the Secretary of Agriculture and the for ester of the United States forest ser vice, r find a willingness here to co-operate with the state of Oregcn in every way possible to prevent the disastrous fires which annually de stroy so much wealth in our state. There appeared to be a question in the mind of the secretary of agri culture whether the Weeks law was not Intended to apply primarily to those states in which the government Is not already spending constderanie sums in the protection of the forests on mountain slopes, and he requested the forester to discuss this matter with me further personally. I am now glad to Inform you that the as sociate forester authorizes you, un der the federal allotment of $5,000 for Oregon, to employ at once as many federal patrolmen within this amount and at the same salary paid to guards on the national forests as seem necessary In your judgment to properly handle the fire situation. In case of a great emergency he states an additional allotment can be made you. With best wishes, I am, ,' Truly yours, W. C. HAWLEY, Washington, August 12. Department of the Interior, U. S.
