The Prospector and His Burro - The Day of the Prospector Has Not Passed

"And, as for the country having been thoroughly prospected, there is nothing to it, and I am willing to wager a tommyknocker against a power drill that I can go into any old camp in this western country and, by careful prospecting, find a body of pay ore in localities which have been over-run by mining men for a score of years, or more."
