Gen. Frank Hall in Denver Post.
The state commissioner of mines
mas instructed his inspectors TO re-
port the number of mills in their re-
spective districts that are using the
flotation process Of treating ores, the
capacity of the apparatus and the
results being achieved. The spread of
fotation has been more rapid than
any other improved method Of treat
ment ever introduced here. 1t is 60
ing everywhere and when properly ap-
piled is accomplishing veritable
revolution in value saving. 1t is
spreading like an epidemic in the San
Juan country.
A. X. Whitley, inventor of the Will
fley concentrating table, has adopted
flotation and is now treating ore at
a cost of 10 cents a ton. The Iowa
Tiger, Silver Lake and Gold King are
using this process, and the Kittemac,
one of the biggest combinations
down there, will use it in its mill,
which is now being remodled. Mr..
Hyde, of Butte, Mont, who has
brought flotation to a high degree in
that country and is rated as the great
expert along flotation lines, has NOV
ed to the San Juan, bringing his train
ed assistants, and will make his
home at Silverton. Having examined
the principal mines and inspected the
mills, he has decided to cast his lot
with the San Juaners and show them
what flotation, when brought into
general practice, will do for this
country. He says, This is the coun-
try for me, and I'm going to stay.
Mr.. Hyde has taken options on sew
cral we'll opened properties and will
work them. His system Of plant in
stallation cuts out all machinery ex'
cept crushers. He uses small guam

MACHINE TOOLS IN BIG DEMAND.
(By Associated Press.)

Cassel. Picardy, Jan. 21.--American
automatic machine tools are in such
extraordinary demand for extending
the caapcity of shell and ammunition
factories that the price Of these Ansr.
lean tools Is 100 per cent higher than
it was five months ago. The French
manufacturers appear willing to pay
that and more for quick delivery.
Upon the recent assumption OF the
offensive by the Allies. It was report
ed that General Joffre placed 1000
shells per day per gun as the minimum
with which the artillery should begin
the forward movement
1t was said that the reserve of artil-
lery ammunition had accumulated to
nearly 100000 rounds. Large as
this reserve would seem to be, it could
all be shot aawy in 333 minutes with
1000 guns in action at once, according
to an experts figures, but under the
most probable intensity, the reserves
would suffice for 25 days of high pres

plies, manufactured during that perin!
