CONSOLIDATED MAY
BUY fLKO PRINCE

1t is officially announced the Gold
field Consolidated company has taken
an option on the Elko Prince mine
at Gold Circle. Early in July the
Goldfeld company acquired the Auro-
ra group, and news of the new deal
bears out the prediction Of George
Wingfeld that the great company
will long continue to be one of the
greatest gold yielders the world has
ever known. The Goldfeld Consoli-
dated has already distributed $27,-
39s, ,215 in dividends from it's great
Goldfeld mines.
The Elko Prince mine has been
under development for years, in
which time extensive reserves Of ore
have been blocked out. Several
shoots of rich ore have been recent
ly opened, and the owners are pre-
pairing to sink the 750-foot shaft
deeper and arrange for large mill
when the Goldfield Consolidated Sc
cured an option. Consolidated engi
neers have been examining the mine
several weeks, and within ten days
a definite announcement will be made
whether or not the deal will be con-
summated.

THE COST OF NOISE
TO MANUFACTURERS

In recent conversation the super
intendent of large stamp mill made
the observation that "noise costs
money! We had been discussing the
use of stamps as crushing machines
and the comparative merits of various
devices for crushing ore. One of the
arguments advanced by this superin-
tendent against the use of stamps
was the tremendous and never-e ending
noise produced by the falling weights.
In his opinion the din was responsible
for many misunderstood directions
and orders to employees, resulting in
confusion, loss of time and expensive
mistakes. The point is readily per-
eeived. The average mill employe is
anxious to give the impression that
he understands the boss orders, and
rather than ask question for fur
ther information he will sometimes
pretend to understand and then go
and seek advice from fellow work
man. The order may be wrongly exc
cnted or not at all. The noise of the
stamps contribute greatly to this con-
dition, makes it difficult to give and
receive orders and undoubtedly causes
many mistakes. The cost of noise may
not be estimated exactly, but it is a

NEW AUTOMOBILE USES GAsO- !.
LINE AND ELECTRICITY

Barring the external appearance Of
an ordinary gasoline car, gas elec-
tric automobile, which Is driven by
electricity generated by its own pow
er plant, has lately been patented.
The current is developed with 10-hp.
engine and a 5-kw. dinamo which pro-
pei the motor. When the machine is
not running at its maximum speed,
which averages between 25 and 30
miles an hour, the surplus power is
diverted to the storage batteries,
which will drive the car 90 miles
without reeharging. Between 20 and
80 miles can be covered on one gallon
of gasoline. A picture of the machine
appears in the August Popular Me-
ehanies Magazine.

QUICKSILVER PRO-
DUCT|ON OF U. 5.

The quicksilver industry in the
United States broke a record last
year, but not an enviable one, for
with the exception of that of 1908,
the production last year was the low
est since 1860. Final figures from ev-
cry producing district, according to
Fl d. McCaskcy, of the United States
Geological Survey, gives domestic
output of qicksilver for 1913 of 2O,-
213 flasks of rs pounds each, valued
at $813,171, against a production Of
25,064 TASKS, valued at $1,053, ,941, in
1912 The decline was due partly to
the large foreign output for the last
few years, duh market, and gene
raj lowering of prices.
Producers report 154,O33 short tons
of ore mined and available for treat
ment in 1913, against 166,564 tons in
1912, and the reduction Of 136,278
tons, against 155,693 tons in 1912.
California, as usual, was the largest
producer in 1913, with 1881 TASKS.
valued at $627 ,22s, a decrease from
the output of 1912 Of 4,933 flasks IN
quantity and of $235,S06 in value.
The total value Of the production Of
quicksilver in the state from 1850, the
date of the earliest output, to the end
of 1913 has been sos, ,902, ,423.
The quicksilver output of Nevada
in 1913 was 1,645 flasks, valued at
$66,17S.
Quicksilver is used mainly for the
manufacture of illuminate or explosive
caps, electric appliances, drugs and
scientific apparatus and for the recov-
cry of gold and silver by amalgama-
tion. The use in gold and silver re-
covery was formerly extensive, but
the rapid increase in the cyanidation
of gold and silver ores has materially
decreased the recovery by amalgama-
tion. This is, of course, due in part
to the change in depth from free-mill-
ing to unoxidized ores but more large
ly to the successful treatment Of GER
tain large supplies Of ores never prof
liable by amalgamation at any depth
and to increase economies and prof
its by the substitution of cyanidation
for amalgamation.
The most important producer of
quicksilver in the United States is the
ramous New Almaden mine, Of Santa
Clara county, California, which con-
tains over 100 miles of underground
workings and which has produced
steadily since 1850.

METAL PRODUCTION OF
OREGON IN 1918


The mine output of gold, silver,
copper and lead in Oregon in 1918,
according to Charles G. Yale, of the
United States Geological Survey, was
valued at $l,746,402, compared with
$S49, ,sS6 in 1912, an increase of more
than 100 per cent. With the excep-
tion of copper, all these metals show
ed an increase in output.
The gold yield for 1913 was ST.
627 no, of which $l,177,0S2 was de-
rived from deep mines and $50,62s
from placers of various kinds. The
yield of silver aggregated 179,036 fine
ounces, valued at $l0S,139, land in
crease Of 121 ,955 ounces in quantity
and $73,Oa4 in value over that OF
1912, The mine production of copper
| in 1918 was 1880 pounds. valued at
$6,176, decrease of 1909 pounds
IN quantity and $36,o55 in value from
that Of 1912.
| In 1913 Oregon produced s7,2o7
pounds of lead, valued at $3.s37, COM
pared with 39,3l7 pounds, valued at
81 ,769, in 1912.
| There were fewer mines in operation
in 1918 than the year before, but the
tonnage from deep mines was materi-
ally enlarged, and the placer mines,
including one new dredge property,
made record year.
