ASSESSMENT WORK TO
[
Captain I. M. Hofstad and sons,
Arthur and Harold, of Petersburg,
on the MS Lark, were recent Sel
dovia visitors, enroute to the
Westward Balboa Bay district.
They own copper and zinc min
ing properties on the mainland
about Balboa Bay, and they have
gone there for the purpose of do.
ing assessment work.
Captain Holstad worked the
mine 25 years ago, according to
the Seldovia Herald. At that time
he could have done well with the
copper, but there was no market
for the zinc. In fact penalties were
levied because of the zinc content.
Later, markets developed for the
zinc, but now that there is an
opportunity to work the mines the
copper price has dropped from
sight.
The miners are not discouraged
by the present bleak outlook and
have mapped out a preliminary;
development program calculated I
to have things in readiness for i
better market conditions.

6SEHT1IK REV1VIL
BUTTE, Mont., July 9. (£>)—Not
since 1905 have there been so
many mining men and prospect
ors in the hills of Montana look
ing for gold. Most of the old
gold camps have assumed some
form of activity. This is espec
ially true of the placer camps,
many of which have been idle
I since pioneer days.
One of the Missoula bankers
recently stated that his bank is
buying more placer gold than at
any time during his banking ex
perience. Right now capital is a
bit timid in entering any indus
try, but before the end of this
summer indications lead ot the
belief that a number of additional
gold mining operations will be
started in Montana.
Basin Montana Tunnel Company
of Basin has opened a vein in its
Nome claim, south of the Grey
I
Eagle, the new vein parallelling
the Comet-Grey Eagle vein sys- *
tem. A recent sampling of this
vein showed assays of 68 per cent
lead, $4.60 gold and 58 ounces of
silver per otn.
Plans are now under way in
Russia to provide employment for
800,000 women in industry and
building and to shift a large num- ~
^er of them into agriculture, itf
|was announced orally on behalf
jofthe Women’s Bureau at the De
partment of Labor.
