PACKING PLANT
IS n EARRING
COMPLETION
EQUIPMENT WILL CONSIST OF
MOST MODERN MACHINERY
WHICH WILL BE INSTALLED
THIS WEEK.

This week will witness the in
stallation of machinery in the pack
ing house being erected by McGih
& Adams and IL is expected that II
will be ready for operation in about
one month. The building itself is
practically completed and at presen,
the large refrigerating room and the
cooling room are being sealed with
cork. This is an interesting process.
The cork blocks, two inches in thick
ness are one foot wide and three
feet long. A layer OF concrete Is
first put on the brick wall and then
a layer of these cork blocks Is placed
next to the concrete, being sealed
with asphalt much as bricks are LAID
with cement. and when dry another
layer of cork is sealed over the first
and then the entire surface is
covered with a thickness of cement
plaster. Thus the cold storage is
made absolutely impervious to heat
or outside temperature, being
separated from the adjoining rooms
and the outside by a brick wall a
layer of concrete, four inches OF
compressed cork and asphalt and a
LAYER of cement, while the floor Is
made equally non-conductiye of tenn
perature, being constructed of five
inch concrete. over which is laid a
two-inch thickness of cork set in
asphalt. and above this a flooring Of
three-inch tongue and groove lum-
ber.
When completed this will be one
of the finest packing plants in the
west. The machinery Is of the latest
design and no expense has been
spared to secure the most efficient
and up-to-date equipment for the
new plant that manufacturers of this
type can produce. representing the
latest inventions of the company
which supplies the famous Armor,
Swift and Cudahy packing plants Of
the middle west. In fact the McGill
& Adams plant will be able 10 do
anything and everything that the
monster plants do, and do IL Just
as well, though of course on
smaller scale, and the packing in
dustry of today is a science, so well
worked out that every pound of the
animal is utilized. and as has been
remarked only the squeal of the hog
Is lost.
The main building is a two-story
concrete and brick structure with a
basement under the entire space. the
entire floor being of reinforced con-
crete. The basement will be utiliz-
ed for the boilers. coal, salt, etc,
with rooms partitioned OFF for
storage of hides and other articles
to be kept on hand for shipment that
do not have to be placed In the cold
storage department,
The floor above the basement Is
the one where the main work of the
plant will be carried on. The cattle
will be driven into the killing room
on a level with the main floor, and
as fast as they are killed will be
thrown from the pen into the dress
ing room by an automatic trap which
is sprung by the weight of the
animal itself when 1t falls. the trap

VALUE OF ALPHA LODE
THOROUGHLY TESTED.

An eastern dispatch received
this week concerning the Gil !
roux Consolidated company
said. 1T may not be general
ly known, but it is a fact that the
management of the Giroux
company before sinking its big
five-compartment shaft had
pretty thoroughly tested the
value of the Alpha lode by I
means of the diamond drill. the I
drilling being conducted from I
the bottom of the old Alpha
shaft at the twelfth level, and I
that the result of this drilling I
had considerable influence in I
the plans of the Giroux people I
in equipping the Alpha work
ings with the largest and best I
machinery known TO modern I

MILITARY ACCURACY.
Exactness In Keeping Tab on tho
Movements Of Soldiers.

Movements Of Soldiers.
We hear much of the perfection of
military organization abroad. but it il
doubtful whether any foreign war of
fee follows with an accuracy greater
than that displayed by our own war
department the movements OF its Of
ficers The following is an interesting
case in point:
A young army officer who has seen
service in this country and in the east
was once with scouting party In Ari
zona. After two weeks in the desert
his squad came to the railway near II
small station. Within ten minutes II
telegram from Washington was
brought to him by the station agent
1t asked II the officer wished to be
transferred to one Of the new artillery
regiments then forming.
He answered by telegraph that he
would be glad to enter either Of them
Then with his squad he set of again
across the desert.
It was six days later when they
again struck the railway. this time
they had previously crossed 1t. but the
officers reply from the war depart
ment was awaiting him. 1t had been
telegraphed to every station within
200 miles.
A more striking instance of accuracy
occurred after the same officers trans
fer to the east. He was travelling
home on leave. and. as the regulations
require. he had notified the department
of the day. hour and probable route
of his Journey After he had been on
the train for eight hours at small
station the porter entered with tele'
gram. asking if any one Of his name
was present. On opening the tele'
gram the officer found that 1t ordered
him to detached duty.
Exactness Of detail could not be car
ried much further. The war depart.
ment knew the whereabouts OF an In
significant second lieutenant even
when he was travelling on leave Of alb
sence.-New York Herald.
