GREAT B0ON IN CERBAT
 RANGE NOW IS IMMINENT
ELECTROLYTIC PROCESS TO REVOLUTIONARY MINING INDUSTRY IN NEAR FUTURE, BE- LIEVE LEADING MINING EXPERTS.

of the copper from a sulphate solution
 was taken up, in a small way, found
 to be adaptable. The plans of the plant were changed and electric pre- cipitation unit was added.
 All machinery is now driven by el- ectricity, reducing the operating cost materially.
 Owing to the scarcity of all cleo trical supplies, the new unit was not in operation until the middle of July, this year.
 i The first electrolytic copper produc- ed in testing was entirely satisfactory, the plant producing at the rate of about one pound of cathod copper per kilowatt hour, or about 5000 pounds each 24-hour day.
 1 Analysis of the product shows it to be exceptionally pure. Arrange ments have been made for disposing of the product on the Pacific coast, saving freight to eastern points.
 The company is now increasing the test plant with additional precipitation cells as fast as material can be bought and installed. A half unit of the pre- cipitation plant will be in operation early in September.
 At present the plant consists of a rock crusher set below the crushing floor. Crushed ore is elevated to the teaching tanks (2O by 5 feet) of 60 tons capacity where the ore is leached with a dilute solution of sulphuric acid and agitated with compressed air by means of lead pipes under wood filter bottoms. The ore is discharged through bottom discharge doors to dump cars on a track underneath. Later a belt conveyor will be installed. The solution is drawn from the tanks every twelve hours to an acid stump tank where it is run through the cleo tric precipitation cells.
 / The copper content of the solution has been about 31a to per cent, car rying little free acid. The tail solu- ton runs about F to g per cent cop per and about 90 pounds per ton of free acid is regenerated. About per cent of the circulating solution will be drawn from the system every twelve hours and run over scrap iron. The cement copper will either be used to depOlarize the electrolytic or introduced into the precipitation cells for refining.
 The company estimates that cathod copper can be made for about 10 cents per pound at the present high cost of material and labor. The company ex- poets to develop larger ore bodies as work progresses and when sufficient tonnage has been blocked to build a large plant capable of a great out put, using the present experimental plant until the big plant is in opera tion.

Science soon will overcome the bar riers nature has set up to prevent
 the extraction Of the ores in the Ger bat range of MshaFe county. The prospector and the miner who came
 sfter him have picked away at the
 huge mountains of ore for half a cen
 .ury and blazed the trail for open
 ng up what is. considered one of the largest deposits of gold-silver-lead- zinc-copper ore ever discovered, but it required the magic wand of cleo tro-chemistry to unlock this mighty storehouse of hidden treasure.
 Application of electricity in the ex- traction of the Cerbat ores, say min ing men who have experimented for years, now is an assured thing. They profess to see within short time the mining industry along the Cerbats entirely revolutiOnized.
 Mohave county can boast of having the second plant in Arizona for treat ment of copper ere by the electroly- tic process. The Emerald Isle Cop per company a short time ago de- monstrated that the ores in that dis trict could be treated electrolytically and now experiments are being con ducted for the purpose of finding a means of treating the zinc by the same process.
 Ores that heretofore were consider ed refractory, it is claimed, can be handled at profit of from S20 to. $40 a ton. The question of zinc pen alty will be eliminated and the zinc utilized by means of electrolytic treat ment.
 The Emerald Isle property was taken over from Tom McNeeley about a year ago and the company was in for 5OO,OOO shares, par value s1. All the stock was taken by John H. Conway and associates. The property consists of eight claims in the Wallapai mining district about one mile east of the station of Key stone on the Chloride branch of the Santa Fe, and five miles south of Chloride
 The company now has in sight a bed Of ore about 600 feet long by 200 feet wide and averaging better than 15 feet thick. Conservative es- inmates place this body at 12O,OOO tons of about 2si per cent copper.
 Tests were made by the Mohave Assay & Engineering office in King man that gave promise of a profita- ble extraction of the copper by leach | ing with sulphuric acid and subse- quent precipitation on scrap iron. This was tried out in ten ton lots on the property with excellent results, i the ore yielding net about 50 pounds of copper per ton.
 The installation Of a Cotton plant was then begun, but early this year the price of iron scrap, absolutely to this process, became so high as almost to make the method prohibitive. So electric precipitation

The Baptist Missionary Society
entertained their friends at the
home of Mrs. j. w, Simmons,
Monday evening. March 18th,
with a Mad March Tea Party,
Mrs. Simmons was assisted III
receiving by Mrs. John James
who represented country girl

ed to the enjoyment of the oc-
casion, as Mrs. James is splendid
in Characterization. Quite a
number of the guests were rep
resented in comic costumes, those
calling for special mention were
Mr.. and Mrs. J. T. 1nman and
daughter, Mrs. Inman played
the part of the lady with the
lagrippe and also started a new
style by wearing spring hat
without trimming, due to the
high cost of living. Mrs. Myrtle
Johnson represented a grass
widow, also wore new spring
bonnet which she purchased OF
w. J. Jones Ladies Fashionable
Hat Shop trimmed in real
spring flowers arranged perpen-
dicular. Mrs. A. M. Carter wore
a bonnet of the old fashioned
style, trimmed in real spring
flowers. Miss Ethel Lee Inman
represented Laughing Water, "
an Indian maid. Misses Lillian
Austin. Catherine O'Rouke, an
Irish girl. Messrs Jerome Luker
and Cleve Walker, deliberately
attired in evening dress and
with rosy cheeks, were two city
boys in their first reception and
were afraid to leave their over
coats in the hall but carried them
into the parlor. Bro. B. L.
Harris represented the Gar of
Russia and brought his fiddle
along and played several selec-
tions. Richard Dillon represent
ed Uncle Sam. Last but not
least was Mrs. Laughlin (Mrs.
Maberry) lately arrived from
London and was attired in
"brocaded" satin evening gown
and wore huge diamonds and
pearls.
When the guests marched to
the dining room, where a dainty
salad course was served, green
Japaneze puzzles were passed
and the lady from London was
valiantly escorted by Uncle Sam.
The dining table was decorat-
ed with a brown center piece, in
center of which was cut glass
bowl of spring flowers. Scatter
ed over the table were Easter
decorations, consisting of March
hares, little chickens and ducks.
From the chandelier to the table
were alternating streamers OF
brown and yellow paper tied to
the table where they were
fastened with a March hare and
dormouse. The guests on leav-
ing the dining room were pre-
sented with grey paper mouse.
In the parlor in charge of Mrs.
A. M. Carter and Miss Lurah
Carter an impromptu programme
consisting of vocal and instru-
mental music was a pleasing
feature of the evening.
The guests, numbering $50,
voted the occasion the most en-
joyable and "tackiest" affair of
the season.
The receipts. amounting to
$26. 90, were placed to the check
ing account of the Baptist Mis-
sionary Society.
