by open cut and dropped down to the
face AT the head of the tram. The ore

ready placed so that as soon as the mill

History Of Deposit,

Searles lake was one Of the first 10 at
tract attention in the prospecting for
potash. II was named after John Searles.
California pioneer. The first work done
was some years ago wnen a boraN plant
was erected to treat the horaX cotton
balls that were found on the surface.
Rorsx was later manufactured from the
marsh deposits after the surface cotton
balls were used ND. These so-callcd cot
ton balls were scraped ND and purified
OH the surface.
Later than this the trona reef was de-
veloped and the product was taken from
this reef. which gave way to a bedded
deposit OF sodium carbonate. which was
found TO have replaced 1t. The land
entered and used for the manufsc-
ture Of soda ash. II was discovered that
colemanlte had replaced the marsh de-
post and the treatment for soda was
continued. For tho pas, few wears the
owners have been determining the eT-
tent OF the soda beds. This work en-
abes A. fairly reliable estimate 10 he

Is about eleven square miles. Drill
