is the building of a }argesmelter near

surface developments at the Enpil e
hav demonstrated beyond a doubt
that the property will be rich and
permanent producer for many years
to came"
This same official further stated
that experiments are now being
made to float the carbonate ore, which
is so abundantly in evidence at the
Empire. If this process is found
feasible and economical a large flo
tation plant will be Immediately es-
tablished and the lower grade car

Another plan which the Empire
management has i'm view is to de-
yelop as large an ore reserve as pos
sible in the quickest time possible II
order to demonstrate to the Santa Fe
railroad that a daily tonnage of
300 tons can be shipped from the
property. If this can be done, it is
said that the Santa Fe will build q
road from Parker ito the mine.
In the meantime, however, the
company will make contracts for the
movement of its ere to Parker by
means of trucks just as soon as a
sufficient tonnage is accumulated in
advance that will assure steady Ship
