Near Silverton the Highland Mary
is working three shifts at both the
mine and mill and shipping each
month.
From Silverton comes a report that
work is going right along and ship
ments being made regularly from the
Pride OF the West mine in Cunning
ham gulch.
The flotation of minerals dates
back to the accounts of Agricola. who
tells US of the virgins who dipped
greasy feathers into the stream and
drew forth gold
At Telluride, in San Miguel county.
the ore shipments for November were
very large, the number OF cars OF con-
centrates shipped totaling 1872 as
against 116 last year
The Coming Wonder property which
has been among the shippers Of the
Silverton district all year is ready to
dc a considerable amount OF develop
ment work during the winter months.
The Ariadne property situated on
Storm peak in the Cement creek sec
ton of San Juan county, which is be-
ing operated by Alfred B. Hes, is rap
idly getting into shape to enter the
shipping list.
The Red Mountain shipping season
now drawing to a close proved the
three leading shippers of the district
to be the Congress Leasing, with 5000
tons; the Barstow, with 800 tons
crude and $50 tons concentrates, and
the Summit Mining and Milling Com
pany, with LIS tons. Miscellaneous
small shipments from the smaller pro-
ducers in the vicinity bring the total
for the district up to between 5000
and 300 tons.

HOW TO PREVENT ROAD DUST
Breaking Up Of Ridges Formed When
Roadbed 10 Wet From Standing
Water Causes Trouble.

Dust in the road is largely caused
by the breaking up of the ridges
formed when the road bed is wet from
standing water. II the roadbed Is
kept well crowned and smooth water
will run OF. The surface will soften
up some in case of long rain. but IL
will not be nearly so bad as when
there are ruts which hold the water
The wheels Of each passing vehicle
meke the rut a little deeper. The
best way to keep the roadbed smooth
Is to run over 1t with the road drag.
This should be done soon after 1t
rains. The soil Is then soft 50 1t can
be easily scraped of and dropped into
any depressions. The harrow also
lays the soil down in layers. It sort
Of plasters II down, which makes
harder surface than when the soil Is
dumped onto the roadbed. The road
drag Is the most effective dust proven
ter except oiling the roads.

According to figures that are being
compiled for the government and for
publicity use, the output of the mines
in the Lordsburg district for 1917 will
total about $2,25o, 900. The eighty-five
mine was the biggest producer, With
the Bonney second.
Two thousands five hundred tons
of coal a day. This figure was reached
by the combined output of the princi-
pal mines in the Gallup district. It 10
the largest coal production in years
and It is expected by mine operators
that 1900 tons day will be reached
within the next few weeks.
An inspection Of the extensive alum
deposits on the ella river, twenty
miles north Of Silver City. is being
made by Gerald T. Hill of New York.
The deposits are said to be the larg-

would give Grant county still another

Few know that in races sanctioned by
the American Automobile association
this unpretentious little wire is con-
nectcd with a 5000 timing device,
owned by Starter Fred ]. Wagner,
which automatically records the time
Of each car to hundredth part of a
second, observes writer in the New
York Evening Post.
There are but two such devices in
America, the other being the property
Of the indianapolis Speedway. and
used to time all the big races held
there. The outfit consists Of time
registering device run BY motor and
The wire which crosses the track Is
fastened at one end to an electric
break-maker.
The operation Is this: Whenever a
car passes over the wire a break"
Is made In the electric current, and
this causes the timing device to record
the time Of crossing. A striking arm
imprints the exact time on O strip Of
paper which passes through the ma
chine. This paper is automatically
shifted forward to receive the next i'm
preston. The machine RECEIVERS from
each operation quickly enough to per-
init the registration Of two cars pass
ing over the wire within five hum
dredths Of second of each other.
Tell Exact Number Of Laps.
An assistant calls out the number
Of each as 1t passes and the Official
time recorded by the machine. The
scorers also record these numbers as
they are called out with small count
ing machines, and are able to tell the
exact number Of laps each car has
completed at any stage of the race.
The position and number Of the lead
ing car Is indicated by the chief scorer
to the starter In time that he may
give II the green nag on the next to
the last lap Of the race. The check
cred nag indicates the completion Of
the race.

Ing and scoring. but more apparent

Strange War Craft.

Plans for one of the strongest war
vessels ever proposed have been sub
mitted to the council of national de-
Tense, says Popular Mechanics Maya
zine. The craft is an enormous ocean
going water wheel that is intended to
perform much the same service for the
navy as the British and French tanks
have for the allied armies. Although
highly visionary and entirely untried,
it has novelty and potential power that
draws attention. In addition TO being
amphibiOus TO certain degree, it is
theoretically capable of great speed.
Essentially it consists of TWO big con-
nected cylinders that are supplied
around their outer rims with adjust
able paddles. The horizontal axle Of
fers space for crew and is gyrO-
scopically stabilized to support fight
ing mast. Opposite ends of the axis
are utilized as gun turrets.

Arizona,

Data hastily gathered indicates that
price fixation on silver will directly

affects its operation. II a short hitch
Is used the tendency is to raise the
front edge Of the drag, while a longer
hitch makes ii cut deeper and move
more material. The correct length Of
hitch to use depends upon the height
of the team, arrangement Of harness,
etc, and must be determined by trial.
The amount OF skew or angle which
the drag makes with the center line
The greater the skew Ii. e.. the small
er the angle between the drag and the
center line OF the road) the more
earth will be moved toward the CEN
ter. Usually this skew angle should
be about As degrees. but here again
the judgment and experience of the
operator must be brought into play.
The driver can control the opera
lion to Il large extent by shifting his
position upon the drag. When he ap-
proaches a high spot in the road he
can step toward the front, thus max
ing the blade cut deeper. while at a
depression he can step toward the
rear. in this way raising the cutting
edge and dumping the earth which IS
being pushed ahead of the drag. By
stepping toward the end of the drag
nearest the center of the road he can
increase the skew and SO move more
earth toward the center line, while
stepping to the other end of the drag
has the opposite effect. In road drag
ging it is especially true that 'prac-
tice makes perfect" provided that COM
mon sense is used along with the
practice.

A Berlin Advertisement.

In Germany now there are advertise
ments which are not only news. but
imply great deal outside of the direct
news sought to be conveyed.
As an instance the Berlin Tages
Zeitung recently contained want adj,
reading as follows: For exchange. 20
Polish labOrers. 20 men and 30 girls,
for the same number of other hands"
Polish laborers in Germany are not
permitted to change masters or to
move from place to place without gov
eminent authorization. With such au-
thoriZation. however. the masters can
make exchanges, as we trade horses
and mules. or aS our housewives eX-

a standstill at the pit. They are not
allowed to make any mechanical re-
pairs or adjustments to the car. These
must be made by the driver or his
mechanician.
The pit attendants keep a record of
the laps made by the car assigned to
them and see that the proper tools for
emergency uses are at their finger
ends when needed. They also see that
a reserve supply Of tires is available to
make any changes that may be neces-
sary. In case of a tire change the en-.
tire wheel is removed and replaced by
another wheel with tire already mount
ed. So expert are some Of these pit
men that tire changes are effected by
them In twenty seconds.
Can Signal to Contestants.
Each team of pit men has a system
of signals by which they are able to
convey to their driver any information
desired. They indicate to him the
position in the race in order that he
may regulate his speed accordingly.
After a driver has driven a few laps
in a race and has passed another car
or has been passed by other cars and
becomes punched with several other
drivers-a common experience-he
often loses track of his position among
the drivers. Here is where the signal
ing from his pit is invaluable to him.
Racing drivers have been known to
win important races unknowingly, hav-
ing lost count of their position in the
race.

TTENTI0N TO SIDE bitches
All Surface Water Rapidly
Guard Against Erosion.

Special attention should be paid to
providing side bitches which will re-
move all surface water rapidly. Side
bitches on long. steep grades should
be protected against serious erosion
by riprap. transverse timbers or other
beams. Culverts and bridges should
be Of ample size and be built as per-
manent structures. Drain tile should
be laid to carry OF underground wa
ter. Side bitches which are kept clean
and have sufficient slope to lead the
water away are usually preferable to
lie drainage. but the latter ID neces-
sary In some places.
