NEW KIND OF MINING

A natural soap mine snd paint mine are two of the latest mineral discoyeries in the Northwest. Several soda lakes have been found in the foothills near Ashcroft, B. c. Their bottoms and shores are incrusted with 8 natural washing com pound containing borax and soda. About 275 tons of the compound have been cut and taken out of one lake. It is handled precisely as ice is handled. The blocks are more than nine inches in thickness, are sawed in blocks 15 by IS inches and weigh 50 pounds each. It is calculated that this lake alone contains 20, 0oO tons, proving that the industry, if successful, will reach large proportions. An i'm mense deposit of ochre, or mineral paint, has been uncovered in the Skagit mining district, about five miles above the mouth of Baker River, in Washington. The ledge runs from 8 to 10 feet in width and between well-deflned walls. The miner al is of such 8 friable nature that pick and shovel alone are necessary for it's working, and is of such purity that it re- quires only roasting and pulverizing to prepare it for the market.
