CALIFORNIA BORAX
COMING TO FRONT

Deposits of colcmanite, an ore OF
boric acid and borax, were discovered
in Ventura county, California, in 1898,
and the district has yielded about 35,
600 tous OF crude ore, valued at approx
iiuately SI.000,000.
This colemanitc, although cassed
among the few important deposits of
this kind of ore in the country, has
suffered the disadvantage of being q
long distance from the main routes of
transportation. As in the case OF MANY
other western industries. however, il is
expected that the opening of the Paua-
ma canal will greatly stimulate produc-

deposits of Ventura county was recently

KENTUCKY ANCIENT
PRODUCER OF COAL
Nearly a Century Ago the
Fuel Was Mined There to
Some Extent.

So far as the records OF early coal
production In the United States are to
be accepted Kentucky. according to e
w. Parker, of the United States geo.
logical survey, was the third state TO
enter the list OF regular coal producers
One OF the early reports OF the Ken
tucky geological survey published in
1889. states that the first coal produced
In the state was mined in 1927 on "the
right side OF the (Cunberland) river be-
low the mouth OF Laurel" This was EVIL
IDENTIFY from either Laurel or Pulaski
county, but tho exact location Is not
definitely stated. The same report says
that in 1929 five boatloads OF coal from
these mines arrived at Nashville. and
twenty-five TO thirty-t FIVE bontloads were
sent out each year The boatloads aver
aged about 1850 bushels, or 6S tons each.
From 1894 10 1887 the total shipments
were from seventy-hve to 100 boatloads,
or about 5000 bushels annually. The
coal was for the most part consumed in
the salt works and iron furnaces con-
venient to the rivers which furnished the
only means OF transportation.
From the best information obtafnable
II seems that the production OF tho state
from 1929 to 1895 ranged from 1000 to
60O0 tons a year. Tho United States CEN
sus for 1870 gives the total production
1850, according to the census for that
year, the production amounted to 1885,.
760 short tons. Operations were neces-
sartly somewhat interrupted during the
civil war but since 1870. after the state
had begun TO recover from the effects
rapidly. as shown in the following table:

MARKED
FOR ELEVATIONS

An interesting series Of reports that
are being. published by the United
States geological survey are those con-
tanning the results Of spirit lsveling.
One of these reports is devoted. to work
in the state of Missouri from 1896 to
1909, the work from 1907 to 1909, in
elusive, having been done in co-opera-
tion with the state.
Many controversies as to the exact
elevation of important points in the
state may be decided through the me.
dunn of this report, published as bulle-
tin 459. For instance, the highest
point in the city of ST. Louis is de-
scribed as follows:
Kirkwood, southwest abutment Of
bridge across Missouri Pacific
railway tracks, south Of Main
street; aluminium tablet stamped
's64S st. Louis" 647.915 feet.
The aluminium tablet referred to is
three and one-ha]H inches in diameter
and one-fourth inch thick, and is ce-
mentcd in drill hole in the abutment
of the bridge. The number stamped
on the bench mark is the elevation Of
the nearest foot rs determined by the
level man, Nearly 500 of such bench
marks have been set in the state and
are described in bulletin 45e. Engi-
ncers and others who are required to
perform work where the exact eleya.
tlon OF the starting point must be
known find these bench marks and the
spirit -level bulletins of the survey very
usefnl. A copy of the report may be
obtained free on application to the di.

Decreased Gold Production

The estimated value OF the gold pro-
duced In the Alaska portion of the Yukon
basin in 1912 was sS,645,00o compared
due to the falling off Of the output from
the Fairbanks and Hot Springs districts,
for the other Yukon camps either held
their own or somewhat increased their
output compared with the preceding
year
The Fairbanks district continues TO be
the largest producer OF placer gold in
tho Yukon country. It cannot maintain
radical change in mining conditions,
which Will make it possible to exploit
profitably its extensive bodies of low
grade placerss But little has been ac-
compllshed In this direction and the best
hope Of the future lies in obtaining d.
rect railway connection with tide
water.

VICTORIA GOLD IS
SMALLER IN YIELD
Dividend Payments in 1912
Also Show a Considerable
Decrease.
MORE TIN is MINED
Coal Product Satisfactory,
Although Slightly Less
Than in 1911.

Financial America says that the re-
port of the department of mines for
Victoria for 1912 again chronicles a
decrease in the ANIMAL gold yield. The
total production for last year amounted
10 5l6,255 ounces gross, or 4SO,l31
ounces fine, equal in value to f2,03s,'
464. decrease of 23,S69 ounces fine
on 1911. The decline was mainly due
to the falling off OF the lode mines at
Ballarat, Scarsdale, and Berriuga, and
also TO the deep alluvial mines at
Rutberglen and Ararat. The detailed
returns show that 349, ,290 ounces were
produced BY lode mining and 156,02s
ounces by alluvia mining. OF the lat
ter amount dredging and sluicing ac-
counted for 1871 ounces. The total
output of the state since the first dis
covery in 1851 to the end of 1912 has
been 73,04S,2i6 ounces gross, or 6S,-

Maintenance Cost.
In answer to inquiries made by A.

BrownelI, chairman of the executive
committee of the Federal Mining &
Smelling company, stated that the cost
Of maintaining the New York office,
was approximately S720 per annum for

phone service. Mr.. Browncll stated
that the office was maintained princi-
pally for the convenience OF the stock
holders, over 90 per cent of the stock
being held in the east. Tho books of
the company of the New York office
are audited monthly, while those Of the
Wallace, Idaho, office are audited

Mined More Tin.

Tin production increased from thirty
three tons TO forty eight tone, valued
at s5733. Of this quantity thirteen
tons were extracted from lodes in the
northeastern district. Wolfram,
amounting to five tons. worth s464, was
obtained at Mount Murphy, beyond
Omeo, and five tons of much lesser
value was won ct Bendoc. The demand
for gypsum is likely to largely increase
on account of its utilization in counec-
ton with farming operations under irri-
CATION. Last year 207S tons were raised
from three leases at Boort and Lake
Boga, as against 59l tons for the pre-
vious year. The output of diatomace-
Gus earth amounted to $50 tons. twice
as much for 1912 as for the previous
year. The other minerals obtained
were magnesite 2l1 tons, manganese
twenty tons, kaolin 2sS tons aud pig
mcnt clays thirteen tons.
