C. P. Mason of Los Angeles, represent
ing the Fairbanks Morse Machinery COM
pany, came in a few days ago from john
ME, where his firm is installing a Nissen
sixteen-stamp mill on the Johnnie Con-
solidated Mr.. Mason says that the work
is progressing very satisfactorily and
that the plant will be completed and
ready for operation by the middle of De-
cember The capacity of the mill will
be about 125 tons a day.
A mill on the Hayseed is within the
immediate realm of possibility. Several
of the large stockholders and directors
advocate such an enterprise.
They argue that the ore in sight JUS
titles such a step, and it is probable
that it will be undertaken. The ore dis
closures in the present workings demand
treatment facilities and it is thought by
the expenditure of a small amount of
money for machinery that it can be
made not only to defray development ex-
penses, but afford good profit beside.

very good gems are being taken out.
Work In other mines in this district is
reported as follows:
In the De La Fountain mine at Stock
ton hill the work continues to open UP
larger and greater bodies of lead ores.
The vein in this mine is considered
one of the largest in the country.
Work is progressing on the Redemption
mine at Chloride and. some good ship
ments of copper ore are expected soon
to be going out to the smeter, especially
when the slopes have been opened up.
Will Erect Mill
There are several tons of rich ore
on the dump of the Little Chief mine,
at Stockton hill. 1t is reported that
this ore will run about 700 ources silver
to the ton.
The new magnetic machine which has
been received at the Vanderbilt mill
is being installed and some considerable
work is soon expected to be done. The
work of separating the zinc from the ores
at the Idaho mine will soon be COM
menced, as the roaster is all ready for
business.
The old mill at the San Francisco mine
was adjudged obsolete and out of date
and a new mill is now at the Yucca
depot TO take the place of the old plant.
IHlS new Mill VIII 90 away WIN the
shipping of concentrates to the smelter,
the values being extracted from the ores
on the ground.
Very few of the properties operating
around Wickenburg have shut down as a
result of the copper slump, but several
have cut down the force employed. There
has been little If any change at the gold
properties, most of which have been run
ming right along with their customary
forces employed.
The tendency among the copper prop
critics is to follow the example of the
big companies by reducing forces and
output about so per cent. Those who
have copper prospects are continuing
work on them.
The new machinery for the Monarch
mine In the same district is due to ar
rive next week and 1t will be installed
at once. Superintendent Platt expects
to have the mill running before the first
of the year. The Goddard Mining COM
pany expects to resume operations De-
cember 1, when heavier and improved
machinery will have been installed.

LEE DISTRICT is BUSY
WITH MUCH IMPROVEMENT II
The Lee Jumbo Has Reached Stage
Where the Ore Blocked
Out Justifies a
Mill

1t seems that the Lee district is to up
hold its reputation as "a district without
a failure"
The late news from there is that the
Lee Jumbo, which is being operated by
Spokane parties, has passed from the
prospect to the positive stage since the
determination Of the operators to under
cut the main ledge at the lowest possible
point. This according to Arthur King,
the superintendent, will give them over
5000 lineal feet of STOPPING ground, at a
depth of 75O feet.
The Lee Jumbo has been fortunate in
it's ownership. 1t has been worked con-
tinuously to block out sufficient ore to
insure its perpetuity and TO accumulate
reserve for the mill which will soon be
provided.
The ore from this section is uniform and
rich. The ore bodies are large and free
from annoying faults and horses found
IL. many localities. Lee is proving to be
consistent. The Hayseed, the Lee Gold
Grotto, the Burro, the Honeysuckle, and
now the Lee Jumbo joins the many others
to- verify the statement that it is camp
without a failure.
The Lee Gold Grotto people have decided
to build a custom mill OF large capacity
to handle their own and the ores of neigh
boring properties.

poets were obliged to suspend work owing
tc the difficulty of selling stock. THESE
properties have plenty of high-grade mill
ing ore on their dumps which 1t would
rot pay to sack and ship. but which will
net handsome returns by milling. The
mines can, when custom mill is estab-
lished. continue development as self-sup-
porting mines.
