for owners-Explanatio Of How
It Worls-Moves 10000 Cubic
Yards per Month.

Helena-The operation of the Mag
PIE dredge at Canyon Ferry, twenty
miles northeast of Helena, is one of
the big placer mining enterprises of
the state. The dredge moves 10000
cubic yards Of gravel a month, and is
operated day and night the year
around, except for occasional brief
shutdowns for repairs. The dredge
costs in the neighborhood of 100000,
and has been in operation three years.
The Operation.
The gravel is taken from the ground
half mile from Lake Sewell on the
Missouri river. The ground available
for mining will keep the dredge in op-
GRAFTON five or six years. The profit or
the extent of the earnings of the
dredge has not been made public, but
1t is known to be splendid paying
proposition. The dredge is owned
principally by San Francisco and east
ern men.
1t is reported that a big copper
strike has been made in Flathead
county, thirty-ave miles south of the
Great Northern railway. The vein is
from twelve to twenty feet wide and
extends along the surface for many
miles. 1t assays IA per cent copper
and eight ounces in silver, minimum,
and 60 per cent copper and Is ounces
Of silver maximum.
May Prove Greatest.
According to the reports the strike
may prove one of the greatest mineral
discoveries in Montana since Ed
Hickey located the Anaconda mine on
Butte hill. The Great Northern is
building branch line that will run
within four miles of the property, and
the Milwaukee will run parallel line
there, too These roads will furnish
facilities to haul the ore to either the
Montana or Idaho shelters.
MING is being done at the old camp
OF Wickes, twenty miles south of Hell

has six four-horse teams hauling cop

years. 1t was abandoned when the

to existence.
Much Activity Seen.
! Much activity is noticeable in the
Blue-Eyed Nellie district, seven miles
from Anaconda, and in the Rochester
district in Madison county. The Blue
Eyed Nellie was once owned Dy w. A.
Clark and has produced $1,5OO,O0o. 1t
has not been worked for twenty years.

GOOD TIMES IN CANADA
BUSINESS PRosPERlNe, TRADE
INCREASING AND FINANCES
IN GOOD SHAPE,

The present Tightening up of money
must not be looked upon az being in
any sense brought about by financial
stringency. It is really more q period
OF stock-taking resorted to by the
banks to ascertain the true condition
OF the finances and trade Of the counr
try. Legitimate business enterprises
are not affected. Throughout the
States there are those who If allowed
to continue borrowing, would inev.
ltably be a means towards precipi-
tating something a good deal worse
than they feel now. In Canada, the
condit] las are excellent and It 10
safe to say business was never bet.

watched by the Finance Department
OF the Dominion government, and ii
Is illuminative to read portions of the
address Of Hon. w. T. White, the
Finance Minister, delivered a few days
ago before the House Of Commons.
Mr.. Whites remarks are in part a.
follows:
1T falls agreeably to my lot to en-
tend my most hearty congratulations
to the House and the country upon
the prosperous conditions which It
continues to be our good fortune to
enjoy. am happy to announce that

which ended on March 81, will prove
even more satisfactory as rejecting
by far the highest pitch to which our
national prosperity has yet attained.
have every expectation that when the
books are closed, it will be found that
the total revenue will have reached
the splendid total Of $168,250,OO0. or
an increase over the year 1911-12 Of
over $32,000.000. Some indication Of
the magnificent growth Of the Domin-
lon may be cleaned from the fact that
this increase in revenue during the pc
Rod Of one year almost equals the en-
tire revenue of the country seventy
years ago.
The augmentation of revenue to
which l have referred has not been
irregular, spasmodic or intermittent
In its nature, but has steadily charac-
terized each month of the entire fiscal
year. It was Of course mainly derived
from Customs receipts. but the other
sources of revenue-excise, post office
and railways-also gave us very sub.
stantial increases"

cial stringency not only have we not
been obliged to resort to the con-
gested markets of the world, but have

Sugar From Wood.

Now they're making sugar out of
wood. British chemists have found
that they can take a ton of sawdust
and get a quarter of ton of sugar
out of it.
The process consists of putting the
sawdust into closed retort and sub
jecting 1t to digestion with a weak
solution of sulphuric acid under a
pressure of from 80 to 100 pounds to
the square inch. Eighty per cent. of
the sugar thus obtained is ferment-
able. The product is called "sacchu-
