MAGNETIC CONCENTRATION.
Electricity Used Successfully in Ore
Separation.

C~tpaFhtious
The magnetic system of ore concen'
ton is, as we predicted some years ago
says the Mining Reporter. proving
itself capable Of solving many problems
that the old gravity processes could moi
touch. At the same time no one be
lieves that the magnetic process has
other than q limited application. There
can be no question. however, but thai
the magnetic method is receiving
o and more respectful attention
from mine-owners with difficult ores K
treat.
We learn that the pres of the Col
conda mine at Golconda, Humboldt
County, Nevada, which are beiDs
worked by the Glasgow q Western
Exploration Company, are being success
fully treated by the Blake static electric
process. We understand that extreme
" good savings are being made. The
success of magnetic or electric concen
tration is now beyond question, and il
is merely q matter of getting the righI
kind Of a machine for the ore to be
treated. OF course. where ample water
is to be had, and there is sufficient diff
ference between the specific gravitieI
of the minerals to be separated, water
concentration will hold its position as
the process par excellence for many q
long day.

New Method for Testing Eggs.

A new and simple method for testing
eggs is published in German papers. 1t
is based upon the fact that the air
chamber in the fiat end of the egg in.
creases with age. If the egg is placed
in a saturated solution of common salt
it will show an increasing inclination to
float with the long axis vertical. A
scale is attached to the vessel contain,
ing the salt solution SO that the incl.
nation of the floating egg toward the
horizontal can be measured. In this
way the age Of the egg can be deter.
mined almost to a day. A fresh egg
lies in a horizontal position at the
bottom of the vessel an egg from 8 to
8 days old shows an elevation of the
fiat end. so that its long axis forms an
angle Of 20 degrees. With an egg s
days old the angle increases to As de-
grees with IN egg IA days old 10 go
d degrees, and one 8 weeks old 20 70 de-
grees, while an egg a month old floats
vertically upon the pointed end.

Western Stock Growers Adopt Grazing
Lands Resolutions.

A dispatch from Denver Col. last night
says: The western stock growers. who have
been comforting here for three days with
the special land commission appointed by
President Roosevelt. finally adjourned to-
night without taking any action with refer
ence to the strike at the packing-house
centers. Gl.O!
A resolution was adopted with practical
unanimity urging upon Congress the neces-
sity of the transfer at the earliest possible
date of the management of the forest re-
serve to the Department of Agriculture
where not only the forests, but all the in
terests involved may be properly studied
and protected
Discussion of the resolutions concerning
grazing lands was animated, there being
a strong sentiment in favor of amending
those reports by the committee to
urge the passage of a strict leasing law
for arid lands of all states and territories
AS reported and as finally adopted the
resolutions as follows:
We favor the passage of law which will
authorize the Secretary of Agriculture to
thoroughly classify the vacant lands of the
United States and determine the conditions
at present governing the use of the grazing
areas and to ascertain those sections of the
range area. if there be any. to which a
lease system can be SatiSfa ctorily applied ;
be 1t
Further resolved, That the power to ere
ate and ad minister forest reserves shall be
vested In the Department of Agriculture,
which is specially organized and equipped
for this purpose; and be it
Further resolved. That government con-
troll and jurisdiction over all public graz
ing areas by or through the Department of
Agriculture, local questions being decided
in local grounds and under regulations
made to meet local conditions; that the
range rights of present users of the graz
ing areas as determined by priority of oc
cupancy and present use shall be carefully
guarded, and that no sudden or stringent
upheaval of existing conditions which would
cause commercial distress shall be made.
On the other hand. such legislation must
be gradual in its effect and leases granted
only where locally satisfactory, as deter
mined by the proper authorities.
Secretary of Agriculture James Wilson

chot and f. H. Newell will leave for the
