inactive mining propositions to be
fcnnd in any of the metal producing
states. The adoption Of flotatton has
solved the treatment problem of the
bornite and chalcopyrite ores chanc-
teristic of the Evergreen property,
and enables a high saving OF values
In ores that under the old system
CT concentration meant a decidedly
heavy loss. The values that slimed
off in treating copper ores with
straight concentration was easily so
per cent and silver losses would
rea>h about the same percentage.
Aside from smelling, there is no
treatment that will effect as complete
saving of the Evergreen ores as
flotaticn.
The mine is capable of furnishing
a tonnage that will keep the mill ful-
ly supplied with ore, even though the
capacity be increased to 300 tons
day as the ore bo:ies in the Ever
green are immense. It is an unusual
formation for this camp in that the
ore exists in dikes instead of in fis-
sures. Bunk hes of born!te are found
that rum from 55 to 60 per cent in
copper. This bornite is also diesem-
mated through the sohists and other
character of rock found in the dikes
and lit is for the recovery of these
values that flota.ion was adopted. Cn
the 10O-foot level the stope is IS feet
long and frcm IL to 80 feet wide,
with a general width OF ore Of 20
feet. Cn the 2O0-foot level the ore
body Is stronger than in the 100, and
shows up equally as we'll In the 85O-
foot level for the work that has been
done.
The company expects soon to have
the mine electrified, to install trip
lex electric pump on the 350-foot lew
ea, and add a larger compressor to
be driven by electricity. Development
OF the mine and opening OF slopes
will be pushed ON the lower levels.
No slopes have been started on the
350foot level up to this time. although
DRIFTS and crcsscuts have been run
to expose the ore bodies. Before
further sinking is attempted a large
amount of diamond drilling will be
done in the 350-foot level to facilitate
exploration.

Greenville Boys Have Suit Patterns But No Fall Suits

Dothan. September A.-(special.} ) Wearing winter hat and their summer suit. number of people. shivering and anxious. have been calling upon local tailors aslting the charge for mak- Ing clothes when the customer fur nished the cloth. And thus has been brought to light another skin game which has separated good many citi- zens of this section from a portion of their wartime prosperity
 Inquiry has developed the information that clever aldermen have sold large number of five-yard suit patterns of shoddy material to individuals 1t prices ranging from e to $is50. seemingly ac- cerding to the buyers willingness and apparent ability to pay. It was repre- sented that the company's tailors would be along in a few days and mako up the suits at q charge of E to a. includ- tng trimmings.
 Instead of the company's tailors, a cold spell came along, leaving a lot of anxious hearts in its wake.
