no reduction plants for recovering
valuable materials from garbage:
This department desires to bring
10 your attention the matter Of the
conservation of the garbage in your
city. AT the present time there ex-

This Situation promises to grow more
serious as the war in Europe contin-

cent of grease and about 90 per cent
OF tankage, the latter having valuable

Amy method of disposal CT garbage
in large cities which does not recov-

is uneconomic and particularly deplor-
able in the present circumstances.
We with, therefore, to urge upon
your consideration the advisability OF

city as to insure the recovery of it's
valuable constituents. That this may

RED CROSS CHAPTERS
GLORIOUS WORK

We wonder If the ma ajority of the
people Of Gilpin county have seen
the beautiful equipments manufacture
ed by the ladies of the Gilpin coun-
ty branch of the American Red
Cross, that have been ON display in
the show windows at the Golden Rule
store, and Red Cross headquarters on
Main street the past week?
The first consignment numbers 800
pieces and consists OF shirts, pillow
slips, pajamas, bed shirts, bath robes,
towels, wash clothes, slippers, hot
water bag covers, ice bag covers, bed
socks and handkerchiefs. This con-
signment will be forwarded this week
to general headquarters, and thence
shipped to European hospitals for the
comfort Of the soldiers and sailors OF
all nations, who are SO unfortunate
as to be sick or wounded, in this,
the greatest of all wars.
This is the initial shipment by this
branch, Of the many that are to fol-
low, and it is imperative that all lad
les in the county should lend a help
ing hand in this great and glorious
work. This first equipment has been
made by emily few OF the ladies of
the county, and We extend AN invita-
ton (through the Red Cross) to all
alike, as we know not how soon some
Of our loved sons or brothers, may
be carried from the battle front to
wear these robes of comfort.
The ladies', as well as the men, of
the Gilpin chapter are certainly en-.
titled to great credit for the magnan-
imOus spirit displayed in assisting
their country in its hour of need, and
III is to be hored that every man,

do their bit in this most humane and

THE MINING SITUATION

Where columns of space were for
merly devoted by the press to news
OF the mines, new the numerous Gil
enterprises are featured, and mining
happenings are neglected. This does
not denote, by any means, that the
usual amount Of ore production is
not going forward in the mineral
fields of the West, or that the mines
are not earning their customary lib
eral dividends. On the. contrary, ev-
cry camp in the country is pushing
work, SO far as the labor supply will
permit, and dividends are being dis
bursed that eclipse in magnitude the
profit distributions of preceding
years. Mining is not only as sound
an investment proposition as it ever
was, but better. Chances for sue
cess in the industry have multiplied
with the passing of time. until today
the investor in hinirg shares Of any
company that is properly managed
may well consider that his holdings
are indeed of promising prospective
value.
There is an abnormally heavy de-
mand for the base metals; but there
is am equally urgent need fer silver
and gold, and increased activity in
the mining Of the precious metals is
close at hand.-Mining & Financial

THE APPEARANCE OF RADIUM

The Geological Survey, Department
OF the Interior, has received numer-
Gus inquiries about the appearance
OF radium, many OF which seem to
have been prompted by carelessiy
written stories, appearing in periodi-
calls Of the poorer class, that tell of
remarkable finds Of nearly pure ra-
dium.
Radium is a metal, and has a white
metallic luster; 1t has been isolated
only once or twice, and few people
have seen It, Raddum is ordinarily
obtained in the form Of salts, and is
usually so sold and used. These salt
are all white OF nearly white SUBJ
stances whose appearance IS no mere
remarkable than that of common salt
or baking powder. Radium is found
in nature in quantities. so exceeding
ly small that ii Is never visible even
when the material is examined with
powerful microscope Ordinarily
radium ore carries emily small frac-
ton of a grain of radium per ton of
material, and radium will never be
found in large masses because 1t Is
formed by the decay Of uranium,
process that is wonderfully slow, and
radium itself decays and changes to
other elements SO rapidly that It IS
impossible for 1t to accumulate natur-
ally In visible masses. Radium and
radium minerals are not generally
luminescent- Tut es containing radi-
un glow from Impurities present
which the radiations from the. radium
cause to give light.
Minerals that carry radium are
fairly easy to determine. for they
affect Photographic films In the same
way as ordinary light. and they can
also be identified by their effect up
on AN electroscope.

NEW MINT SCHEDULE IN
PURCHASING BULLION

Fer years Our federal mints and as
say offices have bought gold bullion
frosn mining companies and other pre-
ducers upon a schedule requiring the
gold content to possess a value of
at least ten times that of che asso-
ciated silver. With silver at fifty
cents per ounce, for instance, and
geld at Its fixed value of $20.67 per
ounce. bullion. to be acceptable for
purchase by the government, could
not carry more than about four ounc-
es OF silver for each ounce of gold;
hat Is, The gold must he at least
one-fifth of the precious-metal con-
tent by weight No restrictions were
laid upon the amount or character OF
the base metals present.
The strength now exhibited In the
silver market has made 1t desirable
to formulate new rule governing
the purchase of bullion. Hereafter
gold bullion will be purchased on
basis Of its nneness, disregarding the
silver content entirely. Gold bullion,
to be salable to the minis or assay
offices, will contain not less than
one part geld for every eight hun
dred parts of base metal, no stipula-
tion being made relative to the Bill
yer content. 1t will therefore be pos
sible to market bullion of much low
er gold grade and much higher silver
grade than formerly.-Mining Ameri-
