The agitation of the change from

The agitation Of the change from
jute to heavy cotton bagging is
becoming more general, and the
idea is growing in favor. The pro-
ducers of cotton could increase
the consumption Of this commodi-
lhx by wrapping the bales in heavy
sn material, weighing TIVE
pounds to the yard, in preparing
the crop For market. By using
eighteen pounds of cotton goods to
pack bale, a farmer who gins
twenty FIVE bales could consume
the equivalent Of one bale of his
own crop-four hundred and fifty
pounds of cotton bagging.

authority for the statement that Frank
Brown is negotiating the sale of the
Jumbo mine in the Robbins district to

property.
"There is a deal now pending for the
Jumbo mine," says Mr.. Brown in the

ports Of the sale of the property were
circulated in Lewiston and Spokane the
matter had not been taken up in the

ADOPTION OF A NEW PROCESS.

Says the Mining and Scientific Press,
when new metallugrical processes are TO
be introduced on a commercial scale, 1t
is important that all the details be
worked out by the inventor prior to
making an expensive installation; but
this, unfortunately is not always done.
IN such event the company's plant be-
comes a school for experiment, not only
for the perfection of the chemistry of
the process, but also for evolution of a
satisfactory and economical means to
apply it. Often the estimated expense
runs far in excess of the amount be-
lieved to be sufficient, and for this rea-
son ample funds should be available, or
all that has been done may be lost.
Sometimes it occurs that after a plant
has been installed It's defects are realiz-
ed, and it is seen that had a different
course been pursued success might have
resulted; but the funds are exhausted
and the process condemned, when a
more fortunate application of the ideas
might have brought success. 1t some
times pays better 60 defer the construc-
ton of plant until the fullest investi-
cation proves that the proposed change
can be made to advantage. In some
