To the immortals in the hall of fame of mining, including the patient burro. who discovered the silver in the Occur d'Alenes, and the veteran mule re- sponsible for the location of the Sil- yer King mine, in Arizona, together with the busy little hen with nuggets In her crop, and the gray goose with its gullet full of gold sand, must be added another representative of the animal kingdom. In an interesting book, by John Nave, an English min- eralogist, recounting travel observa- tions in Brazil, made in 1910, is record ed the discovery of gold in one of the then important districts in the state of Minas Geraes, in which the busy little ants played important parts. He says: "Some negroes employed in clearing the lands broke up an ant hill of con siderable size, when, upon laying 1t open to the air, for the purpose of de- stroying or dispersing the insects, large grains of gold were found." Future historians of mining will please take note of the above and distribute the credit of glory of the discovery of the worlds precious minerals so that the insect kingdom shall have it's dues.- Engineering and Mining Journal.

 One ranch owner is using several thousand feet of these ditches after simply cleaning them out. A line of levels was run along the bottom of one of these old Indian ditches and showed the grade to be almost per. fectly uniform at the rate of 0.01 foot per 100 feet.
