Dry Washers on Altar PIacers.

In the Mining Science of Denver.
dated August 25th. appears an In
teresting we'll written descriptive
article entitled. "Dry Washers on
Altar Piacers," written by Alexander
V. Dye. American consul at Nogales,
Sonora. Mexico.
Mr.. Dye says:
LAS far as 1 have been able to learn +,
somewhat different types of machines
are used in the various placer fields of
no viewer. are based 90 the principle of
using a current of aie instead of water
to carry off the lighter dross and leave
the gold in residue. Perhaps the most
primitive form of dry washer is used
by the Papago Indians, who, am
told, used to take a blanket and toss
the gold bearing gravel up in strong
wind, with great patience and Goa
siderable skill. This method may pos
sibly have given rise to the machine
known locally as 1.-THE Yaqui dry
washer"
I'm its simplest form this machine
consists of cloth stretched over
wooden frame tilted at an angle.
Wooden cleAts are then nailed across
the frame at intervals over the cloth
forming "frets'' or "riffles" A below
of cloth is then constructed underneath
this frame, the frame itself forming
the top of the bellows. in such q way
as to force the air up through the cloth
of the frame. The goldbearing sand
Is fed onto the upper part of the frame
from a hopper. and the current of air
forced up through the cloth by work
ing the bellows. together with pulsat
iEg motion impaired to the frame.
causes the lighter material to pass over
the frets and off the frame at the bot
tom, while the heavier gold and black
sand is caught by the frets and held.
"This gold and black sand is then
PANIED out In an ordinary wash basin
or even in the palm of the hand. or
sometimes where dry washing is done
on a large scale in a concentrating
made and some are equipped with
wooden fly wheel and belt to run the
bellows. while lately some have been
attached to the same motive power
and run in connection with the Quen
ner machine"

1.-THE DEMONSTRATORS"

Young ladies' have recently been
calling at the homes of our neighbors
demonstrating" baking powders.
It is little trick.
Different baking powders are mixed
with a little water and boiled by the
demonstrators" The kind of powder
that the demonstrate" is paid TO sell
or recommend appears to be all right.
but the other kinds of powder appears
to leave a sediment or hard cake in
the dish. 1t is quite convincing bur
absolutely misleading.
What is the truth?
The truth is that if the 'demonstra-
tor" should be hired by the other side
she could turn the case around and
show that the one she formerly con
demned is now the honest man and
the one she formerly praised has now
become the villain. In short 1t is pure
ly a matter of manipulation and mis-
representation by the demonstration"
and in this case it is all done to con
ceal one condeming fact, /. e.( that
the powder she is praising is actually
made of that astringent acid, ALUM
Perhaps the demonstrators" does not
know that fact-she does not know
much about chemistry, and has been
told only what is good for her to re.
peat-but the fact remains.
Housekeepers who are interested in
this matter will do well TO say to the
demonstrated" next time she calls:
please give me a statement in writ
ing that your baking powder does not
contain alum"-and see what happens.
Whatever else happens. it is safe
prophecy that the written statement
requested will not be given-and thus
the true character of such work will
be revealed
