Through this next week Bill intends

INTERESTING FACTS
 ABOUT MACHINE GUNS

(From Prince Rupert Daily News)
 Against machine guns the rifle man is helpless, a military expert remarked recently; and he was right. Actual tests of machine guns have shown them ito be superior to pick- ed marksmen. In test in this country some time ago, forty-two first class shots were pitted against one Maxim, each side firing one minute at target representing infan trymen in line, at distance which was unknown, but which was actual ly 1000 yards. These were the re- suits: forty-two men, 408 rounds, 62 hits; machine gun 228 rounds, 60 hits; although the Maxim spent some time in getting the range.
 Machine guns are really rifles with a mechanical feed, which supplies them rapidly with cartridges. In all modern patterns they are automatic in action. The gas they produce by the explosion or shock of the recoil opens the breech,eiects the spent cartridge, loads the rifle, closes the breech, and fires the charge. These complicated operations are carried cut with extraordinary speed.
 To give an example. The Maxim can fire at least 450 rounds min ute, or more than seven shots pei second, and if in exceptionally good order and cleverly operated can dis charge 600 rounds in a minute.
 In the British army at the be- ginning of the war the number ol machine guns was two to eacl battalion or cavalry regiment. h 1.-the German army there was an eX- traordinary development of the ma chine gun sections shortly before the

MINING LAWS OF AUSTRALIA
 AND NEW ZEALAND

It has been estimated that there are more than 3,500,000,000,O00 short tons of coal in the United States, ex- elusive of Alaska, An authoritative statement of the coal supply of the world shows that the United States has coal reserves exceeding those Of any other continent and nearly double those of Europe. The fact that we are a favored nation in this respect, however, does not imply that we should not be on the alert to dis cover and put into operation the best possible policy in regard to our coal lands, and in determining this policy a comparison with the practices of other mining countries is helpful. Geological Survey Bulle- tin 505, "Mining Laws of Australia and New Zealand" contains much that is suggestive on the subject, and although it is not an exhaustive treatise, it is the best available col lection of authoritative data bearing on the practical working of mineral land laws essentially different from those of the United States The bulletin not only gives in consider able detail the special provisions, terms and conditions of the differ ent laws, as we'll as statistical infor- nation regarding the extent of min ing, by practical Australian and New Zeland mining men who are opperat- ing under these laws. On this ac- count it undoubtedly furnishes a valuable means of comparing the leashold and freehold systems in their effect upon mining develop ment. ~ A copy of the report can be ob- tained free on application to the Director of the Geological Survey, Washington, D. c.
