GRAND OPENING
Ford Automobiles New Putnam Home
Opened Saturday Evening
Parade Red Fire, Music, Pretty DecOra-
lions and Souvenirs

The new Putnam home of the Ford
automobile and the seventh exclusive
Ford car salesroom conducted by the
Elmer Automobile Company of Hart
ford in northern and eastern Connecti'
cut was formally and auspiciously
opened last Saturday night. A large
crowd took advantage of the cordial
invitation to be present and inspect
the new quarters, the various products
of the Ford Motor Company and to
listen TO the music by Irving Brothers
orchestra. The ladies were all given
bouquets and fruit punch was served
during the evening.
The opening was preceded by street
parade in which seventy-tiye Ford
cars took part. This was the longest
line of automobiles that ever assembled
in the city at one time. The parade
formed at the head of Elm street, pro
ceeded down Elm street through I MON
square, Front street to South Main,
Grove street to School and to the Ford
headquarters opposite the Israel Put
nam schoolhouse.
Leading the parade was Ford Sc
dan car in which were Mayor John j.
MeGarry, Lucius f. Elmer of Hart
ford, and Frank II. Cordier of the
PATRIOT. A bugler announced the
approach of the parade.
When the doors of the new Ford
home were thrown open there was
large gathering of people ready to step
inside and see the new rooms. All
along the line of procession hundreds
Of people gathered to see the cars go
by and many followed to headquarters.
1t was pretty sight that met the eye.
The interior was brilliantly illuminat-
ed and the outside of the building also
carried many incandescent lights. On
top of the building search light was
shining. The cars of different styles
were Hastily arranged and the rooms
were decorated with palms, ferns and
flowers. The color scheme was patri-
offered, white and blue-many
American flags being used, and the
whole was a harmonious blending of
bright color.
The Golden Chassis was seen with
motor working. 1t was the same
motor that drives millions of Fords
fTotn one end of the country to the
other and beyond the seas. There was
ss9 the first one-ton truck from the
Ford Motor Company that ever came
into New England. There were many
different styles of Ford cars and also a
display Of parts and accessories.
Among those present from out Of
town were Lueius +. Elmer Of Hart

200 FISH TRAPS
AREDESTROYED
BY THE POLICE

Attorney r. w. Breckons appeared
before the territorial food commission
yesterday to discuss the rice sit
uation in Hawaii, but he had no testi-
mony to offer and made no definite
suggestions for remedying conditions,
save to express the opinion that with
rents and labor at the present stand
ard he could see no reason for the
high prices demanded for the cereal.
He did not think the price Of 81 bag
is warranted.
Deputy County Sheriff Julius Asch
told the commission that in the last
two months the police department has
destroyed about 200 llsh traps in the
waters around Oahu, making a con-
siderable number of arrests for use
of traps and Of dynamite. Principal
centers of activity, he said, were in
the vicinity Of Eva and KaneaAA
Asch explained that the fish trap
business has been conducted on a
wholesale scale, apparently, and said
he doubted whether the police de-
partment would be able to thoroughly
control it now, because the depart
ment does not have enough men to
detail on the work or funds to add
more units to it's force.

CAMPAIGN TO GET
FOOD SUPPLY DATA
IS RUSHED ALONG

The food commissions attempt to
gather data of food supplies on hand
throughout the islands, which it IN
dertook nearly a month ago, is not
meeting as prompt a response from
the dealers as it should. Thus far
less than so per cent of the queries
sent out to grocers and other dealers
in foods have been answered.
AS result the commission now
is sending out about 900 post cards
to those who have failed to respond,
asking them to complete their re-
ports and send them in at the earliest
possible date. The cards now being
mailed are exclusively to merchants on
the other islands, though many on
Oahu are delinquent and cards prob
ably will be sent to them in the next
few days.

an octupus, with tentaces reaching out in
every direction. The drill, in short, is like
great X-ray camera. 1t photographs the
ore deposit just as the X-ray shows the bull
let or needle in the flesh.
This work is expensive. 1t costs five or
ten thousand dollars to equip drilling OUT
fit and the forse sufficient to operate it.
The Oliver Iron Mining company, which is
a branch of the United States Steel corpOr-
alton, spends a million dollars year n find
ing out what ore it has and whether the
new ore lands offered to it are worth the
taking. That company has done so rruch
drilling that if the holes could be joined end
to end they would reach farther than from
Philadelphia to Pittsburg.
After the ore body has been outlined the
land must be cleared. The most of the
country here has been covered with forests.
The trees have to be cut and the stumps
taken out. After that the soil above the
ore has to be stripped Off 1t is scooped up
with steam shovels, loaded on the cars and
carried away. Up until two years ago they
had removed more dirt in that way from
these open-pit mines than was moved in
making the Panama canal. From the Hall
Hurst mine alone they took off 100000
cubic yards of stripping, or enough to have
filled a two-horse wagon train reaching
from the earth three-fourths of the way to
the moon.
After the ore is stripped it has to be
gouged out with the steam shovels and
loaded on the fifty-ton cars which carry it
down to the vessels on the shores of Lake
Superior. The most of the ore here looks
like red clay or dirt. Some of it is in large
Jumps, but when broken up by the blasting
it looks for all the world like the dirt you
dig up on the roadside.
Iron ore is, as you know, merely iron
rust, or cotton iron mixed with sand. or
silicon, and the are is lean or fat according
to the amount Of iron it contains. What the
big companies are now doing is to take out

the center of that luminous body and leave
enough over to twice girdle the earth and
make a track through it from one side to
the other. All the ore needed to make that
steel would not be as much as has come
from this one pit on the edge OF which am
writing.
The methods of mining here are different
from those of other parts Of the world.
Everythingi is done scientifically. The pros
pecting is largely by the aid of magnet, or
magnetic needle, which dips as the pros
pector passes over the ore bodies beneath.
After the ore is found the operators ascer-
tain the exact quantity in each deposit and
how much pure iron it contains. They also
get an exact picture of how the deposit lies,
and how thick or how thin every part of it
is, and how much is lean and how much is
fat.
A large part of this work is done with
diamond drills, machines that cut out holes
bring out solid cores of the strata as thick
as your wrist These holes are often thous-
and feet deep. They go from the surface
of the earth down to the ore body, and
through that body to the stratum below.
The core that comes up gives the thickness

feet deep, you will have some idea of what
the miners had to do before they began to
work on the iron. The stripping taken away
was something like 100000 carloads. All
this was done with steam shoves. the stuff
being carried away in long trains OF cars
of fifty tons each.
l stood while on the edge of the Biwa-
bic mine and watched the steam shovels
working. This mine is in the form of
great cut like that of Culebra. 1t is now
more than 200 feet deep. Starting from the
grass roots there are gray strata Of clay and
rock, running down perhaps forty feet. Be-
low comes deposit of rich reddish brown

million tons of ore, or AZ per cent of all the
ore mined in this region.
