Exposition Notes

Puget Sound and Lake Wash
ington offer the finest water in the
world for motor boating, and high
power craft from all over the coun-
try have entered for the contests
which will take place during the
Alaska Yukon-Pa cific exposition.
which opens in Seattle on June l.
More than 100000 tufted Eng
lish pansies will be seen growing
in one vast bed at the Alaska
Yukon Pacific exposition.
Specimens of all of Luther Bur
banks wonderful vegetable crea-
tons will be shown at the Alaska
Yukon-Pacific exposition in Seat
tie, among them the spineless edi-
bic cactus, which is being used to
reclaim the vast southern deserts.
The Filipino Constabulary Band,
one of the worlds most famous
musical organizations: will be an
attraction at the Alaska-Yukon-
Pacific exposition this summer.
Three of the highest mountain
peaks of the United States are to be
seen within radius of so miles of
the Alaska Yukon-Pacifc exposi-
ton in Seattle They are Mt.
Rainier, Mt. Baker and Mt. Con-
stance.
Every one who attends the

Mill Its Own Ore

After numerous tests made by
different processes the Parks cleo
trical cyanide mill has been found
to be the most suitable in recover
ing the values out of the First
Thought ore In fact, this process
has proven entirely successful both
as to the percentage of gold and
silver recovered and the cost of
milling. Alexander Sharp, man
ager of the First Thought mine,
says that by Parks electrical
cyanide mill the ore can be treated
on the ground at cost of from
$1.25 t, $3.50 per ton.
IN all probability mill of a
considerable capacity will be built
this summer for the treatment of
the First Thought ore. While we
have no definite information where
the plant will be erected, no doubt
it will be on the company's ground
on the other side of the river from
Orient, near the tram line.
It is understood that no ore has
been shipped from the First
Thought that runs less than $40 to
the ton. Enormous quantities of
ore carrying gold values Of from SIS
to $40 per ton are piled up outside
and several low grade ore bodies of
considerable dimensions are left
standing in the workings, which
constitute reserve to be drawn
upon when plant for local treat
ment is installed.-Kettle River
