PORTLAND, Aug. 19. H. S. Lau
rie, chairman ot tho Oregon bnrcau
ot mines and ecology, created by tho
last legislature to gather Information
pertaining to tho mineral resources
ot Oregon and their development,
has ust returned from a trip through
southern Oregon, on which ho con
suited with tho mining committees
ot tho Commercial clubs ot Ashland,
Mcdford, Grants Paso, Roseburg and
Albany. Ho discussed with these
committees tho status ot mining do
vclopmc'nt In their rcspcctlvo com'
munltics.
Ono result of tho trip, Mr. Lawrlo
said, will bo to increase greatly tho
efficiency of tho field work directed
by tho bureau and to mako it easier
to adapt it to tho especial economic
needs of tho different communities.
Mr. Lawrlo said that a party led by
Dr. Alexander Wlncbcll has finished a
preliminary geological reconnalsancc
for tho bureau from tho California
jlno to tho Grants Pass section. It la
now operating from tho lattor point
ns a center. Somo Interesting data
have been collected by this party, par
ticularly in examinations of llmestono
and sbalo.
"Tho deposit on Cheney Creole, 12
miles from Grants Pass, on tho sur
vey of tho proposed railway from
thero to Crescent City, has unlimited
volume for tho production ot cement''
'declared Mr. Lawrlo. "Tho surfaco
outcrop shows It to bo ot hlgh-grado
llmo content Farmers and orchard
lets nearby arc appealing to tho own
cm of this property to supply thorn
with pulverized llmo from It. At
present tho property Is Idle.
"On Williams creek there Is nn-
other quarry of llmo rock awaiting
dovclopmont. When it Is worked It
should produco somo ot the most
beautiful of decorativo xnnrblo.
"Tho Sterling placer mlno out from
Mcdford, which had been worked out
under tho old ditch lino, is now in
tho hands of hoavy capital. It Is be
ing equipped with centrifugal pumps
to lncrcaco tho hydraulic head. A
largo yardago will bo worked under
thlg system.
"Tho Orlolo gold mlno, In which
thero is rooro than a mllo of under
ground workings, Is now installing a
mill. This is near Grants Pass. It Is
expected to bo a heavy producer.
"Tho BunlBton granlto near Ash
janu is au excellent stono. It wa3
pleasing to noto that it has been used
In many of tho Ashland buildings.
Civic prldo and public contracts will
BUBtuIn n quarry, but whero tlioso aro
lacking It 1b not economical enough In
production. Thero Is not enough
business to rcduco tbo overhead
charges.
"At Gold Kay, nenr Mcdford, there
Is also an excellent granlto."
Tho commission now is at work on
a rellof map ot Oregon which Is in
tenilod to show tho mlnoral dovolop
jnont In ovory locality. Professor
6hodd is compiling tho data required
In making this map,
Mr. Lawrlo said that tho projected
railway from Grunts Pass to Crescent

vast metal oro
production nnd that
a smoltor un

Ashland's Public Market
(From tho Ashland Tidings)
Ashland's public market started
out auspiciously Saturday. Tho only
complaint was that thero was not
enough of somo commodities to fill
tho demands of tho customers. A
largo number of people wero present
when tho band began to play at 9
o'clock to usher in tho enterprise, at
least a dozen automobiles being lined
up ouUIdo tho curb. Tho Ashland
band gave a number of beautiful se
lections ot music, but thero was no
formal opening. Tho plan ot having
tho rigs backed up to tho walk on
Slain street, with tbo horses removed
and hitched at tho rear of tbo lot,
worked flno. Thero wcro about a
dozen producers present and tho Tid
ings is informed that with tho excep
tion of a few blackberries everything
offered was sold and tho producers
woro on their way homo boforo noon.

"This Is tho first year," continued
Mr. Steel, "that Oregon visitors hnvo

sively used as the Klamath. This Is
due to tho road Improvements made

In many lines, notably dairy butter,

a marked demand. Al tho dressed

on tho market to handlo tho meat
of tho farmers. It would cortalnly
