SUBSTITUTE FOR PEBBLES.
Steel Balls Being Used in Place of
Stones From Denmark

Engineering and Mining JournaD
Solid steel balls, ranging from 2 to
10 inches in diameter and resembling
in every respect the ammunition for
big guns of civil war days, are now
being shipped in large quantities from
New York for Galveston. Several
barges piled high with the steel
alongside the steamship Eel Dia" load
ing for gulf ports started rumors, says
the Sun, that it was ammunition be-
ing shipped by the government to the
American army patrolling the Mexi-
can boarder. The bells are for use in
mills grinding copper ores, and take
the place of pebbles formerly import
ed largely from Denmark for the same
purpose. The scarcity of ships and
high freight rates incident to the war
have prohibited the shipment of peb-
bles, it being cheaper to have steel
balls manufactured in this country.
is rather stimulating work these days,
and the people over there have so
many other things to do that our
are finding an oppor-
tunity to ship the steel balls for the
and crushing not only to
Arizona, but also to South American
mines. These bells are for the most
part high carbon high manganese
steel, or chrome may be substituted
for the manganese.

STATE BIOLOGISTS.
North Carolina the First to Recognize
Geologic Surveys.

North Carolina was the first state
in the union to recognize the need of
geologic surveys within its borders
In 1923 an act of the general assembly
authorized the board of agriculture to
pay the expenses of geological excur-
sions" for period of years, as a re-
suit of which several geologic reports
on the state were published. South
ample of her sister state and in 1924
established a state geological survey,
whose geologic report appearing in
1926, was the first issued under the
patronage of any state.
Massachusetts and Tennessee early
established official geological surveys
on much larger scale than those of
North and South Carolina, and in 1888
Maryland followed their example, To
Maryland also belongs the credit of
being the first state to undertake a
topographic survey, in which she OBJ
tanned the cooperation of the coast and
geodetie survey, This marks the
beginning of the federal and state CO.
operation in such matters which is
now so important in topographic map
ping and in the investigation of our
mineral resources.
Bulletin 465 of the United States
geological survey entitled "the state
geological surveys of the United
States" includes historical report
of each state in which there is now a
geological survey. giving also a sketch
of early surveys and an account of the
legal designation, organization, laws
appropriations, publications, and ma
ture of the work of each individual
state, The bulletin is valuable as
showing the early recognition of the
need and value of basic Investigations
of our enormous latent mineral
wealth.

NEW TUNNEL MACHINE
BY COLORADO INVENTOR
GEORGETOWN PHYSICIAN is Ex-
HlBiTlNG IMPORTANT
INVENTION.

The Denver Post of March u con-
tains an interesting description of a
tunnel boring machine which Is now
on exhibition in that city and which is
attracting much attention. In addition
to the interest that naturally attaches
to inventions of this kind in mining
district, special local interest is given
! to this device by the fact that the in
ventor DR., w, r. Collins, of George
town, Colo, is an old and intimate
friend of our fellow townsman, Capt,
f. P. Candee, both residing in George
town, where the inventor was at one
/ time an employee of the captain. The
! following extract from the descrip-
ton published in the Post gives an
idea of the working of the machine.
ut Is stated that the machinery can
{ be taken apart and lowered into
shafts or set up for tunnel work by
two men. The entire framework,
which is very simple, light and easily
handled, sets upon casters at the cor
ners, and is propelled forward by
compressed air rams, which are To-
Gated one on each side of the machine,
and operate against a steel prop con-
tanning a centrally located ram oper-
ating flexible end shoes with roughen-
ed faces, forced against each side
wall, affording a fixed base for the
rams. The two side rams are provid-
ed with such air connections and a
four-way valve, SO that the machine
may be moved against or away from
the breast of the tunnel, as may be re-
quired.
Advantages Over Other Machines.
"The operation of the machine is, in
brief, as follows: A comparatively
smooth surface of rock being prepar-
ed at the portal of the projected tun
mel, and a wooden framework suitable
to the diameter of the machine being
installed, the machine is then placed in
proper position and the air admitted
to the rams which push the machine
up to the breast of the tunnel; then
the air drills are started by opening
the gate valve in the air supply pipe
then the electric motor which turns
the cutting head is started In con-
sequence, the drills located in the cut
ting head, working 1000 to 5000 blows
per minute are moved forward against
the breast of the tunnel and the head
rotates at speed of from 10 to 60 feet
minute, using a maximum pressure
of air of rs pounds, provided by sin
gle stage air compressor, producing a
supply of 600 cubic feet of free air per
minute. These points, together with
the desirable advantages of accessi-
bility to all parts of the machine while
in operation, can not be found in any
other attempt in tunnel machine build
ing.
"The machine does not cut the full
face of it's diameter, but cuts chan
mel s inches wide, leaving a core of
uncut rock feet inches, which
passes through the cylinder in the
front end of the frame of the ma
chine, where it is broken off with
hammers or other suitable means"
