GARNER SIGNS PATMAN BONUS BILL SCENE EXTENSIVE Three Quartz Projects in Process of Development in Addition to Dredging j Operation Lately Begun GOLD HILL, May 21. itipl.) At a time of year when ordinarily min ing activity is sharply on th de cline gold production projects have received an Impetus in the Sardine creek canyon and indications now are that the precious metal will be ought throughout the summer. One reason given lor the launch ing of new projects at thla time is that water Is still available in suffic ient volume. Another, and perhaps more Important reason, Is that the high price of gold continues to at tract new capital to mineral proper ties. At any rate the mining busi ness has taken a new lea bo on life and surface manifestations indicate that the creek, which has intrigued prospectors since pioneer days, will be soon again an Important producer of the yellow and tantaltzlngly elu sive metal. lrosccturf Uuj. In addition to the large placer enterprise that recently was launch ed on the S. A. Dusenberrv property about a mile above the mouth of Sard i ne Creek, three quartz mines aro now In process of development, all of them being on the left fork, and It la known that a group ot prospectors has been exploring far up In the hills around the source of the creek. A .iew bail inlll erected, recently on the slto of the Bltwaom group oi mines, situated about three miles above the fork In tiie creek, started trinl runs this week. The property, owned by L. B. Van de Bogitrt, who resides on the premises, contains live or six distinct veins and these will All be developed In turn, the owner said. Associated with Mr. Bo- gart In the development are Henry JJapaton and Robert Bailey, Montana mining men who recently were Med lord residents. The mines are being operated on a lease and royalty basis, Economical operation is being Achieved, Mr. Bognrt pointed out, by using as a power plant a tractor en gine which burns the relatively inex pensive dlesel oil Instead of gasoline. Can Exptind Operation. The mill, equipped with standard amalgamation plates and concentrat ing tables, can be enlarged by adding units to It and that will be done until a capacity of 40 to 60 tons dally ts reached, if conditions are found to warrant such expansion, Mr. Bogart staU'd. If production is found to be sufficiently profitable, a rock crusher will be added to the equipment later and rails and cars, now on the property, will be utilized to haul the ore from the shaft to the mill, he explained. When a suf ficient amount hns been accumu lated, the concentrates will be ship ped to a smelter. The mill at present has a potential capacity of B to 1U tons a day. The Lucky Bart, which over the oure of many years has been ft proline producer of gold, is once more Hated pmong the active mines of the country. Recently it was taken over under lease by Samuel Wenger, Sad Francisco business man, H. W. Bites, a mining engineer of the same city, and John Breeding of Rogue River. Mr. Wongcr being the princi pal financial backer of the enter prise. Men are now at work In getting out ore. the mill has been newly equipped and placed in efficient running order and soon the opera tion will be in full swing. Mr. Sites Is superintendent of production, Mr. Breeding Is forcmim of the mill and presently Fred M. Mac Far lane, local resilient now working In a shaft, will be placed in chargo ot transporting the ore to the mill. Mis, Heamim, Owner.

The bill now goes to the White House where It will be vetoed by the President, according to administration spokes men. (Associated Press Photo) will be made to handle the ore at the Lucky Bart mill. An historical and romantic atmos phere pervades this old mill, situ ated at the edge of the road about a mile above the House of Mystery. It was such a novelty when It first made lta appearance on the market that It was exhibited to the public at afalr in San Francisco In 1894, having been invented two years earlier. Purehnsed at Fair, At the close of the fair the mill was purchased and brought to Sar dine creek, frame. Joists, rafters and all. It was erected on the spot It still occupies. While It has Just been equipped with a new power plant and fitted out with new plates, table, beltings and other trimmings, It Is essentially the same mill. Many of the Important units of the mill are the originals that form ed part of the San Franelseo exhibit morn than 40 years ago. The timber, is the same and markings made as guide for assembling the plant here are still plainly risible. In addition to these developments a considerable amount of plnrer mining was done along the creek the past whiter, most of it bv hand Some of these miners are still at work, though most of them left last week when water was diverted from the brook at two points for irriga tion purposes. Some hydraulic min ing also was done and altogether It Is estimated that several thousand dollars worth of gold was mined. It Is understood that aa soon a suf ficient water Is available next (all two hydraulic operations will be launched. "KICKBRNICK" Undergarments thfi fit at Ethel wyn B. Hoffmann's CARBONIZED TREES OF PARK STUDIED CRATER LAKE NATIONAL PARK. Ore. (Special) Further efforts to pierce the veil of unknown years and their relationship to the destruction of Mt. Mazama. ancestral mountain of crater Lake, are underway In a continued Investigation of carbonized loga plong the Diamond Lake high way near the park boundary. Theory sets forth a large stand of forest was suddenly engulfed by great quantities or hot ash and vol canic ejectn, presumably from Ma nama. The scorching volcanic ma terial descended so quickly, the trees were almost immediately buried without air opportunity of bursting li to flame. The intense heat trans formed the wood into charcoal. It has been so well preserved by an ov erturden of volcanic material that Its' pretjenl condition is as good as when It was first burled. Ita. atuto of preservation simplifies a current effort to identify tho spe cies of tree of which the charcoal was ; once a living part. Specimens of the' material are being sent to Prof. Shir- ley Allen, forest expert. University of Michigan. Ann Harbor, for definite Identification. On November 9, 1918, a young Georgia woman, serving on the staff of the Y. M. C. A, oversea head quarters in New York city, received a copy of a magazine containing Col. John McCrea's poem "In Flan ders Fields." Touched by the poem's reference to the popples growing be tween the crosses of the war ceme teries this young woman. Miss Moina Michael, of Athens, Georgia, decided to wear a poppy in honor of the war dead. Purchasing a number of poppies. Miss Michael distributed them among the headquarters staff. This was the start of the custom of wearing pop pies in memory of the men who lost their lives in the World War. a cus tom now observed by millions oi Americans on Poppy Day, Friday and Saturday, May 24 and 25, Just before Memorial Day, and by millions of others throughout the English-speaking world. When tho American Legion wru organl7,ed In 1019 by the returned veterans, the poppy was officially , adopted as the Legion a memorial flower. After the American Legion Auxiliary was established, the Le gion's poppy program was turned over to the women's organization and I has since been carried out annually by the Auxiliary. Members of Med ford unit of the Auxiliary will dis tribute popples hero May 24 and 25. The Auxiliary women have taken Miss Michael's Idea and developed it Into a great national program for commemorating the sacrifice ot those who died and for bringing aid to those who sacrificed their strength in the nation's service. Early in the winter the making of millions of popple which the people ot America will wear on their coats. Poppy Day Is becun in government hospitals and convalescent workrooms maintained by the Auxiliary In many DHTtS Of thn eonntrv Unnrl. n Htc I abled veterans, weary of Idleness, are given employment shaping the little red flowers. Sick and discouraged men whose spirit have sunk to despair from long unemployment are given the encouraging experience of again earning money. A penny apiece is the usual amount paid for each poppy made, and a man, if not too badly disabled, can easily turn out 300 a day. The number each man Is permitted to make Is restricted In order that he will not overtax i his strength and to spread the work ' among as many as possible. The work Is restricted to disabled vete rans receiving little or no govern ment compensation and men with dependent families are given prefer- ; ence. To pay the workers and purchase the materials is a problem in financ ing which the women of the Auxil iary have worked out. This year, when spproximately 10,000,000 pop ples have been made, the earnings of the disabled men have amounted to $100,000. The work has been car ried on In 60 hospitals and work rooms In 40 different states. Distribution of the poppies except In a few southern localities, will be a nation-wide endeavor conductod Just before Memorial Day. On that day an army of marly 100.000 volun teer workers from the Auxiliary takes the poppies out on the streets and pins them on the coats of passers by. By nightfall the little crimson symbols of remembrance bloom on millions of lapels and the coin boxes carried by the women are heavy with offerings which will mean relief for countless victims of the war during the year to come. Wearing the poppy draws Its wide appeal from its dual purpose of honoring the dead and serving the living. Every poppy worn on Poppy Day means that the wearer has thought, at least for a moment, o! the men who lie beneath the popples in France, and has contributed to the relief and rehabilitation of those who are still suffering from results of war, the disabled, their families and the families of the dead.
