WATER OUT AND
ORE UNCOVERED
--------------------
Columbus Con. Has Encountered
Milling Rock on Four
Hundred Level.
IMPROVEMENT is EXPECTED
Management il Pushing Drift Into
Full Face in Hope of Reach
ing Shipping stuff.

Tony jacobson, president and man
ager of the Columbus Con, at Alta
arrived from camp yesterday evening
and confirmed the reports coming
down from the mine during the past
few days. These reports had it that
the company had broken into milling
ore, 500 feet west OF the shaft on the
400-foot level. MIR. Jacobson went up
to the property to look over the
new conditions himself. That he found
them even better than reported is
evident. He SAYS the drift mentioned
presents a face covered with ore some
of the stuff is of a shipping grade, but
the average Is a good quality of mill
ing rock No attempt has been made
to cross-cut on the ore. and will not
be made unt:l the drift has been car
ried into the body further.
It is believed the find Will lead to
the uncoverng OF shipping ore in
some quantity
FLOODS HINDERED.
Whatever success the Columbus
Con. meets on the 400 it has earned
by patient work against huge OBJ
stacles. While development In this
portion of the mine was reaching an
interesting stage the pumps broke
and the drifts were filed with water.
This forced shutdown at that
depth. and for two months the mine
devoted its energy to fighting the
floods Victory was finally attained
and development pushed ahead with
speed calculated to make up lost
time. Just now It looks as IL the
mine is going to be rewarded for those
Two months of superhuman efforts.
Mr.. jacobson has been the man at
the helm and has demonstrated that
Implicit faith in his ability as man
ager is not misplaced. The manage
ment is generous with its praise for
him and his lieutenants.

REMOVING DEcAYED MATTER.
THE TREE SURGEON.
He Uses Cement to Offset RaUages
of Decay.
By Clifford III. East0n.

am frequently asked the question: What is
tree SURGERY" In so far as it applies to the
cement work alone good answer would be that
It is the practical application of dentistry TO
hees. But this answer would not cover the
many other branches of the profession, consist
ing of trimming, claiming. packing, scraplns,
ipraying and fertilizing. Tree surgery is, In
act, advanced development of arboriculture'
Both fruit and shade trees are valued now as
n--ver before, and the fact has become generally
known that by skilful methods of the tree sur
xecn it is possible to give a new lease of life
30 trees which apparently had reached their
limit of existence l believe it is safe to say
that almost any tree of medium age may be
saved by these methods
OF the many branches embraced in this work
she cement filing forms by far the largest and
most important part. The practice of filling
cavities with cement has long been in use, but
when carried out along the usual lines it only
serves to add to the original trouble. The
method of sealing up the decayed section simply
increased the decay. Many examples may be
seen where the bark at the side of the cavity
was covered by the cement, regard having
been paid to drainage the subsequent healing
Of the wound. AS the cement did not stick to
the wood and the swaying of the tree by the
wind often enlarged the crack between the wood
and the filing. water penetrated behind The ce-
nent, and decay went more rapidly than
before
The tree grows in girth by the deposit of a
thin layer of new wood between the wood and
bark. There three layers in this coat-the
middle one being composed of thin forming It's
sues known the ''cambium." The inner side
of this layer forms wood, the outer new
bark 1t is this layer and the layers of the
four or five previous years which are known as
the sapwood, and form the active section of
New-York tribune., 1908-07-05

the trunk and branches. The cells Of these inner
rings are gradually covered by the yearly de-
posit of new growth, and from living sapwood
become heartwood which is dead and serves
merely as a strong framework for the living
parts of the tree and as storehouses for excess
material.
This is the reason why hollow trees may often
be found in f1ourishing condition when the
heartwood may have entirely disappeared
However, a landscape tree in this condition. de-
prived of the shelter of it's fellows, is in grave
danger, for a high wind or a heavy snowfall
may find it an easy victim.
New-York tribune., 1908-07-05

After the mass of decay has been removed
from the interior of rotting trunk there re-
mains a shell of living sapwood and bark Into
this cavity steel brace is inserted and bolted
in place. This gives to the tree stability
which by the decay of the supporting heart
wood 1t had lost Now comes an important op-
Grafton, the cutting of the watersheds, which
prevent the enhance of moisture The water
sheds consist of deep groove cut about an inch
inside the edge and opening out TO the ground
below. The cement, being packed tightly into
these grooves forms channel down which the
