perfected chemical compound whicn
enables him to make lead pipe joint
without heat This is apt to prove of
immense value to the plumbing bust

already made application for patent to
the United States patent office and
hopes to get his papers soon. So far
as he knows there is nothing on the

get out into the hills to see them, and
not infrequently they can be seen brows-
ing on Battle mountain from the streets
of Red Cliff.-Red Cliff News.
