SUMNER MONTHS OPEN
SEASON FOR PROSPECTING

Denver Mining Record
In the majority of mining districts
the summer months are welcomed as
the open season SO to speak, for pros
pecting. This is particularly true of
the mountainous regions where the
higher attitudes prevail and snow
flies except in the brief summer
months During the present summer
the prospectors are out with pick and
shovel. but their number is not legion.
OF late, there have been comparative
ly few virgin claims developed into
mines, and there is little to encourage
the prospector right now. About all
he can do is to locate piece of prom
Using ground, and retain ownership
until times in mining are more prom
Using and investors are willing to fin
ance new claims from the start to
production.
There never was time when new
mines were needed more than they are
now. Operators today, have a great
advantage over those of the early
days. Railroads, aerial tramways,
automobile trucks, etc, all afford bet
ter transportation facilities. Treat
ment costs have been reduced and
methods Of dressing and reducing Of
ores have been simplified, and render
d comparatively inexpensive. Under
these conditions, ores formerly con-
idered complex or refractory, can be

MONEY INSTEAD OF MERCH-
ANDISE SHOULD BE SENT
TO THE SOLDIERS

The original order that the APPROX
al of regimental or higher COM
mander was necessary before pack
ages might be sent to soldiers of the
expeditionary forces has been modifi-
ed SO officers with the rank Of Major
and higher may approve shipments.
The approval of company command
er is not sufficient.
The question of shipment of parcels
to France first came to the attention
of the War Department when the
commanding general of the expidi-
tionary forces cabled that congestion
of such articles had reached a point
that French railroads were unable to
handle the load. A board appointed
by the Secretary of War and the Post
master General examined 5000 sacks
of parcel mail, and found that the ar
ticles being sent, not only in the main,
were absolutely unnecessary, but un-
desirable. The investigation showed
that the amount of such mail had
reached a total of SOC, 700 pounds a
week, and was steadily increasing.
Relatives and friends, according to
a recent statement by the War De-
partment, will find they often can do a
greater service by sending the soldiers
money for the purchase of articles in
France than by sending the articles
direct. Tobacco is now being sup
piled as part of the American rations,
and merchandise of nearly all kinds
may now be purchased in France thru
the huge general store established by
the Quartermasters Corps at lower
prices than charged by the retailers
here.

CONSERVATION RULES
CHANGED

1t is announced by the War Indus
tries Board that the future conserva-
ton schedule which was to go into
effect January ], 1919, has been re-
scinded because there is no longer
any imperative necessity for the can
servation of material, labor and
transportation for war purposes.
In connection with the manufacture
of shoes, Chairman b. NJ. Baruch,
of the War Industries Board, has
notified shoe manufacturers that with
certain exceptions the shoe conserya-
ton schedules for the Spring season
of 1919 will remain in force and be
effective on all shoes shipped to re-
tailers until June J., 1919, when such
schedules will automatically become
imperative. II is stated that these
conservation schedules were agreed
upon by shoe manufacturers as war
measure designed to conserve mate
rial, labor, etc, and that it is at their
request that such restrictions are
continued by the War Industries
Board until June 1. This attitude
on the part of shoe manufacturers
is understood to be due largely to the
fact that the process of manufacture
Of shoes for the Spring trade has al
ready proceeded so far that it would
be difficult to change their plans at
this late date.
The United States Fuel Administra-
ton plans gradually to eliminate re-
strictive orders and to carry on only
necessary voluntary conservation Of
coal through educational means. In
pursuance Of this policy, orders have
been issued doing away almost entire
ly with the "lightless night" res
trictions.
