will not be definitely known until the
investigation has proceeded further
than at present Mr.. Bibb has done
nothing beyond washing out few pans
of the gold filled sands on the bank Of
the creek
The discovery is regarded as one Of
exceeding interest from scientific as
we'll as a monetary point of view, for
1t has raised the question of the prob
able source or origin of the gold found
Being what is known as placer gold,
it must have dr1fted down from some
rich country during the glacial period
and as scientists say the movements
of the glaciers that once partially COW
cred this portion of the United States
was from north to south, it is believed
| the original home of the gold that has
just been found was some point in
British Columbia
In view of the recent discoveries in
the Klondike, this is of more than
ordinary interest, as it establishes a
basis to the claim that if prospectors
will penetrate points in northern Cana
da directly and greatly north of this
section, there is likely to be a fresh
discovery of gold. It may be, it is
held from examination of the gold dis
covered on the banks of Dry creek,
that the original gold feds will be rich
er, If possible, than any yet discover
ed. This may seem purely theoretical,
but the biologists who have looked
into the matter claim it is backed by
cold scientific fact
There have been gold discoveries in
Missouri before, but none which SEEM
ed to promise as we'll as this. nor was
the gold found of as high a grade. The
Dry Fork creek gold WILL it is stated,
average $1.50 to the pan, which would
be a tremendously profitable yield, If
there was any quantity of the precious
metal wnere 1t could be secured from
this source. Whatever there is must
be washed out by means Of what is
known as placer mining, as there is
nothing whatever to Indicate the pres
ence of gold bearing quartz
In making his investigation of the
gold find, previous to communicating
with the geological experts, Mr.. Bib
took specimens of the sand from var
ious points along q distance of about
seVenty-fiVe feet. He says that as far
as he was able to learn the sand taken
from one point was just as rich as that
taken from another. This would seem
to indicate that the yield will at least
be sufficient to assure the finder of the

purchasing power has enormously increased
by reason of the cheap transport, and of the
less cost of manufacture. or wheat bread
a man may purchase for the same money
three times as much as sixty years ago; OF
-four 70 per cent more; OF tea and sugar,
three times and so on. This is not sufpr1s-
ing when we recall the great machine
equipped wheat growing plains of America,
and that the transport thence to Liverpool or
any British port is only sXpence 10 seven
pence per bushel.
It would cost as much to cart If from a
farm in the environs Of London to the metro

be set up for about $500 for kneading the
dough- rolling it, stamping out biscuits, car
rying them in an endless conVeyor through

to the time required for baking, and then
boys and girls only are needed to pack them.

Such comparisons might be multiplied in

called practical men jeered at the plan.
Now, they are changing their opin-

when they graduate will often sur
prise the old-timer by knowing infinite
ly more about the locomotive than he
does himself.
Not all Of the graduates become en-
gineers, for some Of them look for high
er places, but the fact that they are
experienced in practical steam en-
cheering is a qualification that gives
them an advantage which it is hard to
over estimate. Small wonder then that
the Purdue students sorrowed when
they saw Schenectady No. steaming
away from them. They knew the
knowledge they and others had CLEANED
from It. There is nothing more dear
