POIN TIERS ON
PROSPECTING.
Requires Both Scientific knowl-
edge and Experience.

cral region begins with that indispensn
Bile toiler, the prospector; the "Alad
din," the steel of whose pick strikes th,
spark that lights the lamp Of discovery
and reveals the numerous yolcondas that
are pouring out their wealth of precious
metals.
Much sympathetic truth has been
written Of the perseverance, and endur.
ancc Of this hardy individual, and the
mcayrc results that ~ often follow hs
efforts with their attendant privations
and hardships. In the days agone, of
"thc wild and woo!ly west" adventure
added spice to his search for treasure.
The live prnslcctor Of today is u man Of

no longer II mere digger IN the ground,
but an observer oi things. lie is u read.

bic mineral values. lie knows some
thing oi geology and mincralogy; can
point on, the scdimcntaries that are

here pointed out, and more. The world
IN full Of books from able men and the
book Of nature is open to all. The pros.
pector will always be- with us. Capital
will not take to the burro and pack sad.
die and the rougness Of camp life on des-
ert and mountain. The discoverer, too
often, meets disappointment when his
reward may lie at his feet. For lack Of
funds he is unable to exploit his find.
His time II lost and n valuable ore body
lies undeveloped. This break should be
bridged, or rather prevented by union
Of capital with the prospector's time and
experience. Al the discovery stake,
knowledge is in the main u bankrupt.
Not penny for development and capi.
tai fights shy. There are no drifts,
crosscuts and upraises with calculable
tons in sight, nor assayers' certificate
attestinv the value en- masse. Capital
and labor are inter'lependent.
Combination ~ conservation Of time
and money. Applied to mining, il would
result in more rapid development Of our
mineral resources and reduce the per-
ccntage Of failures. AZ pointed out, the
prospcctor cxpends time and what little
money he has, only Ia fail at the location
post through lack Of funds. Again, cap.
ital too often fails through misdirected
effort and lack Of knowing how ut the
working end. Capital is not meant here
as millions; II few hundred, wisely ex.
pended, may bring rich returns.
In mining region the majority are
Interested in mines. Some invest in II
few shares because they are told il is u
good buy ar what is more, risky specu.
lation in stocks. a better way to mine
would be to form an association to keep
an intelligent. well verscd, thoroughly |
practical man in the field. Give him an
interest and u salary that will leave his
mind free from the shadow Of want. The
chances Of realization would be far
greater than in speculation.
Mineral exploration and development,
juiiciously conducted along these lines,
will result in fewer failures than is ac- !
credited by commerci ] agencies to tran.
