smelters have been built in the south
west. So far as known to the writer
the Western Spelter companys plant
at Henryetta, Okla, owned by the
Nicholson interests, reached an opera :
ting stage before it was mentioned
in the technical press. 1t is reported
that the Grasselli Chemical company
is building a zinc smelling and acid
plant at Terre Haute, Ind, but the
United States geological survey has
not yet been able to learn the details
Of the plant. In October the Kusa
and La Harpe plants at Kusa, Okla,
were consolidated as the Kusa Spelter
company.
EIectrolytic Zinc Plants.
The capacity of the electrolytic zinc
plants in the United States at the end
of 1916 hardly came up to the geologi-
cal surveys estimate of $4,000 tons,
owing to the failure to complete some
plants Electrolytic plants We're in
reality producing at the rate of 10000
tons annually, but with the completion
OF plants now under construction the
capacity will be about $4,000 tons The
production of electrolytic spelter in
1916 was 26,916 tons, of which 1900
tons was refined from prime western
spelter, SS7 tons was refined from
scrap and Dresses, and 1929 tons
was made from ore.
The Wallace miner. [volume] (Wallace, Idaho) 1907-current, 1917-05-10

ported at the end of the year, at an
annual yield under average conditions
of tons of prime western spelter
each, would have a capacity of over
$4,000 tons as compared with the
capacity of $4,000 tons estimated in
April. 1916, for the end Of The year.
This statement means that, given the
ore, the smelters could produce $780,
600 tons of prime western spelter in
1917, not that they will do so. In
view of the account in the Engineer
ing and Mining Journal of March 81,
1917. of the 10 years run of fur
mace at Cherryvale, Kans., which had
a yearly average of 1856 tons per re-
tort, the geological surveys estimate
of tons per retort under average
conditions will probably not be consid-
cred excessive.
In 1916, as in 1915, a large number
of retorts were engaged in refining
prime western spelter by Redistribution
and We're therefore not available to
treat ore. considerable number of
retorts were idle during the year, over
1880 being idle December 81. Thir-
teen zinc shelters were started and
brought to an operating stage during
the year and 2 more begun. Features Of

RECENT MINING DECISIONS.

Mining CIaims-Meandered Boundaries
Plats and field notes referred to in
patents may be resorted to for the
purpose of determining the limits of
the areas that passed under the pat
ents. Reference in a patent to the
mineral lot number of the claim is
sufficient reference to the plat and the
| field notes to render them admissible
to show that the lines of such claim
bordering on a water front are in
/ fact meander lines. A meander line is
a line run in the survey of, particular
portions of the public domain border
ter, not as boundary of the tract
surveyed, but for the purpose of de-
filming the sinuosities of the bank of
shore of the water and as a means
of ascertaining the quantity of land
within the surveyed area subject to
sale. This rule of meander lines is
applicable to mining claims abutting
on a navigable body of water. Where

is a navigable body of water all accre-
tions formed after abe survey and

Crude Oil Prod cts.

Crude oil and it's products produce
more wealth than all other minerals
combined. In 1859 the total produc
ton of crude oil in the country was
1000 barrels. In 1914 1t was over $780,
100000 barrels. The entire worlds
production of crude oil in 1914 was
nearly 6OO,00OOOO barrels.
Oklahoma furnishes about one
sixth of the worlds supply and over
one-third OF the country's production.
Her production in 1914 was a little
less than 12o,OOO,OOO barrels, valued at
nearly that many million dollars, and
to this may be added nearly $4,000
600 worth OF natural gas.

Mr.. Citizen. have you taken into
consideration in making plans for
your material welfare during the sum-
mer and fall, that the health of your
self and Your family may determine
whether or not this is to be success
! full year for you? If you are a mer-
chant, have you stopped to reflect
that case of typhoid fever in your
family will affect your assets in exact
ly the same way as the loss of a val
liable shipment of merchandise? If
you are a farmer, has it occurred to
you that such an illness may offset
the value of bountiful crop on many
acres of your land? If you are a wage
Garner, have you considered that ILL
ness of yourself or a. member of your
family will materially affect the plans
you have made for the investment of
your savings?
You have thought, of course, of how
unfortunate it would be for such ILL
mess to happen in your family. You
have insured your merchandise against
loss. You have insured your house
and barn against fire. You have per-

price received for spelter OF all quail

With this conference holding for the
possibilities of important diplomatic
developments, comment was also rife
on the German and Russian changes.
Possible strengthening of the Ger
man cabinet for war purposes thru
bringing in men in entire sympathy
with Chancellor Michaelis, but of lit
tie significance insofar as internal lib
eralization is concerned, was seen as n
result of the ministerial changes in
Berlin.
On the other hand there was hope
that Premier Kerensky is again fairly
on the road to success in his work of
the regeneration of Russia. He has
successfully passed thru another per-
iod of what was apparently disorgani-
zation, stifled out-cropping of renewed
peace demands, and stands forth
stronger than ever before.
Kuehlmann Knows America.
Britons saw a possible glance to the
future in dealing with America in the
appointment of DR.. Kuehlmann as for
eign minister of Germany, succeeding
Alfred Zimmerman. In the place of
the man who wrote the famous note,
seeking to set Mexico and Japan upon
the United States the government will
be represented by a statesman who is
popularity supposed to have consider
able knowledge of American institu-
tiOnS and ideals.
Chancellor Michaelis, however, has
given no indication of bending in the
least from the militarist program of
his predecessor and that DR. Kuahl-
mann is in thoro accord with his views
is regarded as certain
