was particularly beautiful, as Mount

pocket. A gate operated by COM
pressed air releases the ore and lets
it fall into the skip, which runs up to
the surface at speed of 5000 feet a
minute
A gigantic rotary crusher in the
shafthouse breaks all of the ore and
the rock falls upon a series of belt
conveyers.
The ore is distributed evenly over
the conveyers, so that any waste in 1t
can readily be seen. Men stationed
along the conveyers pick out the waste
and throw it aside. The ore, after
being automatically sampled, is car
ried by an aerial tram to the loading
bins on the railway track. Three rail-
way cars can be loaded from the bins
at one time
On reaching the smelter the ore is
dumped automatically from the cars.
A cable railway is under construction
to carry the ore on to the roast heaps.
After being roasted the ore will be
dumped by a steam shovel into an cleo
trio tram. and 1t will be dumped from
the car direct into the furnace. Thus
from the time it is blasted in the
slopes until it is converted into matte
the ore is not once touched by hand.
1t does not seem that labor saving de-
vices could go much further.
The sixth furnace, which is under
construction at the smelter, will give
the plant capacity of about 1000 tons
of ore a day, and will make it the
largest in the northwest.
