alton, there are other phases of the
subject that are important Compare
FL PasO with other large cities. Cal
weston has the Texas school Of medi-
cine and the school of pharmacy: Hous-
ton has the Rice institute, Waco has
Baylor university; Austin. the State
university; Forth Worth, the Methodist
Polytechnic college; Dallas. the AIethO-
dist university Every large city in
Texas has an institution OF learning
Of collegiate rank except san Antonio
Fl PasO, Of course, could not afford
to be behind in matters Of education
Il has a high school second TO none
and also the school Of mines. a depart
ment of the Texas university, and an
institution of collegiate rank with the
power to grant degrees just as the
medical department at Galveston has.
To TIA MANY Boys.
The primary purpose OF the school
OF mines is, Of course, to give instruc-
ton IN mining and metallurgical engi-
neering- Many Of the courses are those
usually given in other engineering col
4eges, but modified to suit the special
needs of mining engineer. II is

who complete the course at the Texas
Agricultural and Mechanical school do
not follow either agriculture or me-
chanics as a profession, but subsequent

has given them a good general educa-
ton. Undoubtedly many boys from FL

cation whether they practice mining as
a profession or not Having secured
the fundamentals Of engineering. they
can then specialize elsewhere or here
even on the particular branch OF engi-
nering they wish to follow or take up
some other line Of work with the con-
seriousness Of having a good education
to back them Up.
To Test Ores.
Aside from the educational feature
of the school, it is proposed 10 install
an ore testing plant for the purpose
treating any particular ore. II may
be Of interest to state that the very
Iirst letter, so far as known. addressed
10 the school Of mines at FL PasO. was
an inquiry asking just when the school
would be equipped for this work. There
are many people engaged in mining who
90 not appreciate the fact that every
mine is a separate and distinct metal
lurglcal problem. for the reason that
no Two mines are ever alike Mills are
frequently built to treat ores by a
process not at all applicable to the
character Of the ore to be treated. The
reason frequently is that the ores were
never thoroughly tested to determine
beforehand the proper method. Hun
drecs of thousands of dollars could
nave been saved in the southwest had
such tests been previously made The
school of mines intends to install next
year complete testing plant for treat
ing ores where mine owners Of tina
southwest can have ores tested at a
very small cost In this one feature
alone, the school will contribute no
little to the development of this sec
