THE NEVADA HILLS LEASING
A GOOD SUBSTITUTE

On small properties employing the
cyanide process and not possessing a
h~lter-press, an ordinary suction filter
has been found to act as a good substi-
tute. 1t should be connected with the
solution of other pumps, but in such
a manner that the acid does not pass
through the pump. By allowing a fairly
large space (from one foot six inches to
two feet) below the cloth and making
the pump connection one or two inches
below the cloth. the liquor may be col
lected in the bottom of the filter and
drawn off by a waste COCK into a set
Ting vat. A guage glass should be at
tached to the side in order that the
operator may see when the filter is
full.--Neyada Mining Investor.
