NEW PLANT PROPOSED FOR
MENDOZA NEVADA MINING co

Mendha Nevada Mining company
closed down its properties on the first
inst, for the purpose, Manager John
Cook says, of going ahead with milY
construction in the near future, says
the Phoebe Record.
The directors of the company say
that it is folly for them to continue
shipments pending the construction Of
the mill, for the reason that late tests
made with the ore is conclusive evf-
dence that it will pay to wait until
the plant is ready for commission
They are now losing from SO to SO per
ton by shipping the product in the
crude state to the smelter.
1t is proposed to build a ffty-ton
plant at a cost of about 100000. The
Mendha company has shipped to the
Salt Lake smelters under the present
management about 5000 tons of ore
averaging $50 per ton.
The company has had a thorough
mill test made by concentration and
cyanide methods, and the following let
ter from J. M. Callow, manager of the
company, explains the results obtained
therefrom:
"Herewith we beg to hand you our
detailed report on the mill test VIC
made or the eleven-ton shipment or
ore, our report on the preliminary tests
having already been rendered you.
"On page two will be found a sum
mary of the results obtained by con.
centration, which are as follows, fig
ured on a basis of 100 tons of ore.
1892 tons concentrates ration 1928 to
|. Assaying-lead, "a per cent; gold,
.591 ounces; silver, 25.S2 ounces; iron,
1890 per cent; silica, 23.40 per cent.
Containing-79 per cent of the tota,
lead, 41.57 per cent of the total gold,
1928 per cent of the total silver.
cit will be noticed that these pro-
ducts check back to a head assay or
1928 per cent lead; A ounces gold
1917 ounces silver, which is an ex-
tremely close check on the gold and
silver shown by the Utah Ore Sampl-
ing company's head sample, but is low
err in lead by nine-tenths Of one per
cent than their sample showed. To be
sure that we had made no error in
weighing and sampling our product, we
re-weighed and re-sampled all concen-
trates and tailings, but we still come
back to the 1928 per cent lead, and we
found, upon a%ssaying the head sample
taken in our plant during the test
run, that this showed 1850 per cent
lead.
"The recoveries obtained by cyanf-
dation check very closely to those OBJ
tanned in our preliminary tests, and
show that this material is very amen
able to such process. The consumption
Of cyanide being lis pounds per ton,
and from samples taken during agita-
tion, it was found that eighteen hours
agitation was sufficient. In practice
it is quite possible that twelve hours
agitation may show the maximum re
covery.
eve might state that we nave rare
ly handled an ore that has so readily
responded to tried-out methods or
milling and which gives sueh an ex-
%eellent return in dollars and cents"

in the situation In regard to the milk
supply of Washington during the last
few days. according to a number Of deal
ers interviewed today. Increased ship
ments of milk from New York. Penn
sylvania and other near states are being
received, and although some dealers have
had to reduce the amount of milk sold
to some of their patrons today these
dealers are better able to supply all de-
mands.
The wholesale price Of milk, however,
continues higher than formerly, % cents
gallon instead Of "a, and In some in
stances the retail price Of milk has been
raised from to 8 cents a quart and to
cents pint.
Continued rains and cooler weather will
do much to better the situation, it Is said.
