new GOVERNMENT
BUREAU OF MINES
DIRECTOR OF BUREAU MAKES
HIS REPoRT-soME
SUGGESTIONS.

The following item from Mining
Science tells something of what the
government bureau Of mines is doing
and will be a source of information to
readers who do not get the technical
mining journals:
The report of DR.. Jos. A. Holmes,
director Of the bureau Of mines for the
last fiscal year, reveals the expansive
nature Of the new organic act to
which the bureau owes it's existence
When 1t was first established, this
phase of the governments activities
was limited to the problem Of human
safety in mining-particularl coal
mining. This was the stepping stone
to further enlargement. The old
organic act became effective July l.,
1910: the new act was signed by the
president February rs. 1918. This
measure is given in full in Dr. Holmes
report; and the subsequent text is an
excellent illustration Of the capacity
which the bureau has for assuming
important duties in the interest of the
mining industry. While it is hardly
likely that the bureau will reach it's
full growth until it has been function
ed out as department with a cab
met officer at the head of it, it's pres
ent stature is greater than it's most
ardent friends expected of it. 1t is as
broad as the mining INDUSTRY, and
there Is no chronological problem
which it does not possess license to
consider. A phase Of the work which
impresses us as the most significant Is
the bureaus attention to metallurgical
problems. including the problems Of
ore dressing. Ample consideration is
to be given to the separation and con-
Icentration of the lower grade mixed
sulphides Of which there are extensive
deposits In many parts of the west 1t
is especially desirable to direct the at
tention of the small operator to the
means whereby limited production at
the mine may be profitably carried out
The activities Of the bureau Of mines
have, otherwise, become so manifold
that It is not easy to give a review Of
them. They may in the end refer to
the technology Of practically every
mineral which the United States pro-
duces. This is a broad field and its
development will be limited only by
the unwillingness Of congress to pro-
vide the means"

direct beneficial bearing on all the
business Of the nation.
Metallic ore deposits are generally
situated in rough mountain sections,
usually Of very little value for any
other purpose and can be better used
for mining than for anything else, and
their exploration, development and
purchase should be facilitated by the
government to the extent Of giving
them the free use Of all the timber re-

innate operations. to a point Of pro-
fitable production at least, as such a
course would amount to but a trifle.
The acquisition Of mineral lands
should be encouraged by the govern

the present stringent departmental
rulings and methods that have result
ed from the conservation theory. The
old scores that the government Is now
prosecuting against UlINluk COIHpdn-
les and others for timber used off the
public domain at period when there
was no objection to its use in such a
manner by the federal policy then in
vogue should be wiped off the slate as
