7 annarack.

Tamarack, despite working forces
greatly decreased, is getting out more
mineral than at any time i'm six months
past. Mining costs are being reduced
under the able management OF Capt.
aIcClelland, formerly in charge Of the
deep mining in the G. & II. Red Jacket
shaft, and Improbable ground is be-
ing studiously avoided under the new
regime. The repair shops have been
closed In favor Of the c. q II. shops,
where all repair work can be done
more economically. The shafts and
shaft buildings were overhauled dur
ing the past winter and summer and
the property put in shape for heavy
production on short notice. The pres
ent rate Of production hovers around
1000 tons OF rock daily with a result
ant yield of $50 tons of fine copper
monthly.

PETROLEUM EXPERIMENTS.
Geological Survey Has Carried on This
Work for Several Years.

The United States Geological Sur
vey has for several years carried on
experimental work in cooperation
with the Johns HoplSns University to
determine the cause of the differences
in color, gravity. and other features Of
crude oil found i'm the same oil field.
Fifteen years ago David T. Day
found that crude oil can not oozc
through the pores of dry shales with
out leaving in the pores part of the
heavier oils il contains. The expert
ments showing this fact made it seem
possible that difference between vari-
GUS Pennsylvania oils We're due to the
density and dryness Of the shales
through which they had been diffused,
and suggested that the simpler Penn
sylvania oils may have been diffused
through shales from more complicated
asphaltlc oils containing sulphur.
The whole subject is reviewed in
Bulletin AS. of the United States Ge-
illogical Survey, by J. Elliott Gilpm
and oscar T.. Bransky The authors
particularly emphasize the results Of
recent experiments made by thcm to
determine whether it is simply the
thickest oils in given crude oil which
are separated out when oil dinuses
through shale or whether the rate of
diffusion depends on the kind of oil.
The results Of these expenditures
show the remarkable fact that unsat-
urated oils-even those as thin as or
thinner than saturated oils-are held
back I'm the shale. Thus when a solu
ton of benzzol (unsaturated) and a
parafin oil Wnsaturated) is allowed to
dinuse upward through a tube Of full
er's earth (Which is a good type Of
shale for experimental purposes), the
benzol tends TO collect in the lower sec
tions and the parahin oil in the upper
sections Of the tube 1t has also been
found that If water is added TO shale
containing a mixed solution of satur-
atcd and unsaturated oils and sulphur
compounds. the water drives out the
saturated portion more easily than the
lunsaUratcd. The sulphur compounds
| also cling to the clay. The possibility
is thus established that the simple par
aim base oils may have been derived
Iby diffusion through shales from more
complex asphalt base oils. The signiG-
canoe Of these experiments as regards
oil deposits is discussed at length

Butte Ballaklava.

| President +. IA. Nelson. and Secre-
tary John A. Percival Of the Butte Bal
laklava Copper Company, were In
Butte from Duluth a few days ago
They both expressed satisfaction with
conditions as they found them in the

the property. While no definite in
structions concerning actual mining
We're given, il is believed that ore ship
ments will be resumed before the first
Of the new year. Shaft sinking is be-
ing pushed at a rapid rate and mining
on the l.6OO-foot level will be in oper-
alton at an early date. -Four known

tuted by the Anaconda Copper Mining

statements by Mr.. Percival, and the
company maintains every confidence
that the Butte Balahava company's
ownership of the disputed ore body will
be proven at the trial which should
take place i'm the near future unless
some compromise arrangement is
reached. It is hardly probable that any
plan of compromise would be accept
able To the Butte Ballaklava company
except a side line arrangement for
mining. which would give the Ballak-
lava the right to mine all ores inside
of perpendicular lines from the surface
to extreme depth. This would insure
to the Ballaklava company the own
ership Of the rich ore body i'm dispute,
and which of itself would assure the
payment of regular dividends for a
long time to come.

An important item In the economy

The company will install motors az
both pumping stations and the try

is considered beneficial. the new power
will be continued under a five year
contract If on the other hand it fails,
the city will pay the company $3.50 for
