Lead acetate used in cyanide
plants does not always result in
a decreased consumption of cya-
nide, or an increased extraction.
Intermittent washing of sand
in a teaching vat has often been
found to give better results than
continuous teaching, as in the
former system the sand gets
extra aeration when the washes
are completely drained.

Knob Hill Mine Doing
Much Work.
I ORE TO BE MILLED SOON
Development Shows Large
Bodies of Ore.
Orogrande, Sept. 3.

Orogrande, Sept. 3.
The past month has marked a
great change in conditions at
Orogrande, and at present a
large amount of work is being
done. (
The Knob Hill is the scene of
the greatest activity, end prep
arations are being made for
extensive work. Cabins are be-
ing built, and everything put in
shape for work this winter.
At the mine, at present, the
work being done is the sinking
of shaft on one of the veins,
and this is now down 80 it., and
will be continued for some depth.
This vein is one of the parallel
veins that run through the prop
erty, and is about 10 ft. wide,'
carrying good milling values,
with a rich streak of ore on the
foot wall, about Is in. wide, that
is very high grade. On another
vein about 100 ft. north, there is
A ft. of good ore, that is develop
ed by shaft and several open
cuts. This vein is on the contact
of rhyolite and granite.
Frank M. Peck, the owner of
the Knob Hill claims, has pur-
chased the mill of the Twin Butte
company and will put it in shape
to run. A wagon road will be
built to the ore bins above the
mill. and the ore hauled for the
present.
The Knob Hill claims are To-
Gated on the cresttof very high
ridge, between Quartz creek and
the west fork Of Crooked creek,
and is we'll adapted to mining by
tunnel, and as soon as Mr.. Peck
can satisfy himself as to the ex-
tent and pitch of the ore shoots
a tunnel will be driven that vii
cut the veins at considerable
depth. :,
1t is planned to drive the tun
mel on the Crooked creek side
which is more accessible to th'
mill. The Twin Butte mill il
driven by water power, and is
modern plant of the Chillian typ
with tables and sinners. Th'
mill has been run but very little
and isSin good condition, witt
the exception of some parts tina
have been carried away.

ing Up Well.

The work Of development, the
past season has placed some
prospects in Dixie. in a position
to be classed as producers, and it
will not be many days before
actual production begins. There
has been more good ore exposed
in the past few months than
ever before, and the work now
being done will have a lasting
effect on the camp.
The work at the Penn-Dixie
has been progressing very salts
factory of late, and the develop
ment has put large tonnage of
high grade ore in sight. Tunnel
No. l has been driven 100 ft.
giving a. total length of 800 ft.
About 300 ft. from the portal
there is a raise to the surface,
and this blocks out a large body
of ore. f. .y.. ~ e
The work at present being
done is the sinking of a shaft on
the keystone claim, and this is
down so ft. This shaft is put
down on a very rich, small vein,
which will be opened, and the
ore taken to the mill. A tram is
being built to connect the shaft,
with the raise from No. 1 tunnel
and the ore will be sent to the
mill through this tunnel, which
; is on a level with the crusher
floor. u
At the mill, which has been
generally overhauled, a cyanide
room has been built, and as soon

will be started up. 1t is not pro-
