w. A. Stevens Of the Butte G0ldheld
Company, has announced the comp.e-
ton of plans for the erection Of smell
ter at Sodaville, Nevada, in the Tono-
pah district. to cost in the neighbcr-
hood Of S25O.00O.
The smelter which will be built ana
controlled by eastern capitalists will
be started in the near future.
Sodaville, located at the junction Of
of the Southern Pacific and the Tono-
pah railways is said to offer the ia
cilities in water and fluxing ores. The
district about Sodaville has been work
ed for q number Of years past, and no
ore except that which assayed in the
neighborhood of 500 has been ship
ped out. The advent Of the smelter
will make a saving of $40 per ton.
With the completion Of the smelter,
siliceous ores from Goldfield will be
shipped to Sodaville, and there treat
ed with the fluxing ores Of the latter
district. Contracts to deliver ore tc
the smelter are already being signel
by the Goldheld properties.

The Times has always predicted that
the Bluestone mine would turn out
to be a valuable copper property, and
is pleased to be able to state that
the development work done on the
property in the past year has opened
up to sight in the mine about 1000, 900
tons of ore that will go per cetn In

It is the intention Of the new owners
OF the property to install modern
concentrating plant on the fiat near
the river and tram the ore from the
mine to the concentrating plant. The
new owners have also taken up a
power site on the Walker River, about
fifteen miles south Of Yerington, where
an electric generating plant will be
installed to furnish power for the con
centrating plant, and most likely an
electric road to Wabuska. 1t is es
timated that the expense Of these i'm

three quarters of million dollars.
Work on these lines will probabl,

POSSIBILITIES OF SCRAP.
High Grade Steel Made From Very
Ordinary Material.

-
How the highest class of steel can be
made from ordinary scrap, such as rail-
ends, is explained by correspondent. He
says: ''The electric furnace. II employed
simply as a melter, would not remove either
silicon. sulphur or phorphorus to any ap-
preciable extent. and II raiI-ends were only
melted down you would only obtain sec
ond-class steel, exactly as Is obtained when
such material Is melted in pots. The Kjellin
furnace is really a large pot-mehing fur
mace. in which little publication Is effected,
and hence. II rail-ends were melted in this
furnace. second-class steel would be pro-
duced. To make highest-class steel In this
furnace 1t is necessary to select pure Swed-
ish walloon scrap, exactly as is done for
say In my article that this furnace is not
SO well suited to English conditions as
others, owing to its lack of adaptability
both as regards materials which can be
used and any variation In design, etc. The
other furnaces referred fo--Heroult, Keller
and Stassano-are not mere melting pots.
but, by the addition of suitable fuxes, en-
able the phosphorus, silicon and sulphur to
be very largely removed and carried away
in the Stag; and thus steel of the highest
class can be produced from rail steel, or
even still more impure scrap. have seen
charges made from wrought iron scrap,
containing 90 to 0.25 per cent phosphorus.
in which the finished steel contained 0.o1
per cent and under. There is not the
slightest difficulty in largely removing the
phosphorus and silicon by melting rail-ends
In an ordinary Basic Siemens furnace, al
though there is more difficulty with the sui
phur. The great advantage that the eIec-
trio furnace has over the Siemens furnace
Is the absence of furnace gases and prac-
ticalIy a non-oxidiZing atmosphere. 1t is Il IT
even suggested that the electricity has any
thing to do with the removal of impuri-
test is simply the heating agent; but
1t enables the impurities to be removed
from scrap iron under conditions that APP
proach nearer to the crucible process than
any other method, and probably under
conditions where occlusion OF gases takes
place TO very small extent, To put the
case another way: In case of high class
crucible steel you must select absolutely
pure scrap and bar steel and mix accord
Ing to requirements. In an electric fur
mace you take ordinary materials and
purify them to the required extent by adj
diition of fiuxes to form Stag, which can
be renewed several times, according to
the degree of publication required. While
this publication Is going on there are no
gases In contact with the steel other than
the little air which leaks into the furnace"
