MICA

Persons who are interested in de posits mica should not overlook state ment of the United States Geological Survey that only large deposit ot mica favorably located with regard tc transportation and a grinding mill can be probably worked solely as a source of scrap mica for grinding. Most mica mines must also yield good sheet mica to make the mining profitable. Mica to be of value as sheet must yield rectangles at least one and a half by two inches which must split easily and evenly, be free from cracks, markings, and fracturelines, and be reasonably free from specks or foreign mineral matter. The size stated is the smallest rectangular size which is salable as nncut sheet and the rough trimmed mica sheet must be nearly twice as large to yield the rectangle stated. In order to be profitable most deposits must also contain some mica larger than one and half by two inches.
 If mica did not usually contain much foreign matter and did not have so many Assures and imperfections- cracks, markings and holes-there would be no difficulty in obtaining all the mica needed. But, in proportion to the mica mined there is only very small percentage of sheet mica which when finally prepared is of the proper quality to be used in the indus tries.
 Good sheet mica should be so flex- ible that a sheet thousandth of an inch thick can readily be bent into cylinder one-quarter of an inch in diameter without showing any crack ing.
 There is also great variation in the hardness of mica, the Geological Survey recognizing seven different de- grees of hardness. Mica is often er- roneously called isinglass. This latter substance is a gelatin made of the air bladGers of certain fish. The sub stance is soluble in water and burns readily. whereas mica is neither soIu ble nor combustible.
 The production of the va.icus kinds of mica in 're United States ranges from 5000 to 5000 tons year.

Bonnie Greenberg
Writes To Friends
Through The World

Bonnie Greenberg, for years a FAM
iliar figure on the streets of Devils
Lake and turnout the community, has
left North Dakota, destined for Cali
fornia-but Bonnie hasn't forgotten
his friends here. Bonnie had friends
by the cor who scoffed the social
istic teachings of the little man, yet
who never doubted his sincerity and
from those friends go undoubtedly the
wishes Of success, tho not a hope of
the success Of Bennie's doctrines. The
little Justice Of the Peace, writes to
his friends in q letter addressed to
The World, asking it's publication. He
says in part: (From Bismarck)
1T affords me great pleasure
to be at the bankers meeting
when over 300 met. They have
practically admitted their guilt
of bringing on a crisis in the
state Of North Dakota by secur-
ing approval of the initiated mea-
sures which the I. v. AS pulled
over the people. A great many
of them have suggested the call
ing of a special session of the
legislature to repeal those meas
ures but the real stalwarts see
they would be the laughing stock
Of the U. S.
"But they, the bankers have
practically now endorsed the pro-
gram of the administration. I
hope they will truly cooperate
with the administration as most Of
them promised. Really North
Dakota will become a model for
the U. S. of America if they do,
standing for good government, of
the people, for the people and by
the people themselves.
"Yours for the state Of North
Dakota,

WHAT NEXT7

From the Occur d'A1ene convention
Republican interest has turned to the
coming gathering at Pocatello when
the state ticket will be selected. The
opinion was freely expressed prior
to the Occur d'Alene convention that
the northern Idaho gathering would
determine largely what Republican
candidates were likely to be favored
at Pocatello.
Nothing of the kind actually came
about. 1t was freely predicted that at
least one of the two candidates for
the governorship on the Republican
ticket would be virtually assured OF
nomination at Pocatello. On the
contrary, both D. w. Davis and John
Eagleson claim a signal victory at
Occur d'Alene. Davis forces went to
the convention with the double deter
mination of having the present ad-
ministration endorsed and specific
clause added to the resolution laudine
