Matters pertaining to the electric
road have been very quiet the past

are in the East looking after some
very essential points regarding the

in a short time to be able to tell
lust about when work will begin.

MODERN METHODS.
How Recent Processes Wifi
 Work a Benefit.

l. is probably no czaggera:isn to say that but for the reduction in the c 6. oi mining and milling brought a5out hy new method. in the past ten or Ef;o, years, more than half the mines in the world now being worked would neye. have been opened. The Mining and Scientific Press observes tlat on the Rand in South Africa much Of tho ere that is being worked today would not have paiI under the methods in vogue three years ago. There the cost of working tailings by the cyanide process has been almost brought down to 50 cents per ton OH the larger plants. In his address be- fJre the Miners Convention Prof. Christy, of the Cal.forn a State Uni versity, said: And this much is cer. tain, that any mine owner who is dis charging tailings now averaging 50 cents a ton would do we'll to save thera." A few years age such q state ment could not have been made. Aside from the fact tha. th reduction in the cost oi working ores gives 6 larger profit to the mine owner, there is 8 much larger view to be taken Of the matter, and it is that tbe reduc- ton in the cost oi working has added countless millions of wealth to the world in making Of value immense ore deposits that were before worthless Many millions, of course, have been irretiievably lost in the past through crude methods Of working. Much has gone of in the tailings, and inuch ore that would now pay 10 work has been left in the old workings Of the mines. There are numerous ore bodies in Arizons, and especially in Cochise coInty, which with the improved pro- cssses could be made 10 yield incalcu- liable wealth to ,h, owners as well as prosperity 10 the community.

Any miner or prospector who has a blow pipe, alcohol lamp and few drops of cold sulphuric acid can in Q lew minutes determine whether tellu- rum is present in ores. All that is necessary is to break off small piece of the ore, place it in a small porcs- lain dish previously warmed so as to avoid breaking. apply the blow pipe until the ore is at an cxidizing heat. then one or two drops or sulphuric ac!d oa porcelain dish allow to mix with the ore.
