ANALYSES AND ASSAYS OF ROCKS
What the Geological Survey Can Do
with Your Specimens.

Hello! Hellol Yes, this is the
chief clerk Of the geological survey! An
analysis? Oh, an assay of some rock
No. we cannot make assays or analyses
OF rocks, but if you viii send the rock
to the director Of the geological sur
vey, department of the interior, an in
spection or simple chemical test will be
made and the findings reported TO you.
The above is common telephone
conversation between members of Con
gress or others and the officials of the
geological survey. A considerable per
centage of the geological surveys CORE
spondence is of the same kind.
The question is also frequently asked
"yNhat is the difference between an as
say. an analysis, and an expert exam
nation of specimen of rock or min
erar'--sueh specimen as may be sent
TO the geological survey by anyone
who has found or thinks he has found
valuable mineralY Ninety out
OF every hundred specimens submitted
to the geological survey are found upon
inspection to be commercially value
less. Such an inspection or test, how
ever, is widely different from an analy-
sis. A complete analysis of rock that
is composed of many different minerals
may require from two to six weeks
time in the laboratory, involving the
more or less continual attention OF q
chemist equivalent 10 three or four days
of his time, and such work Is done by
the survey only in connection with its
own scientific investigations. An as
say. ON the other hand, is usually fire
test made to determine the exact metal
content of an ore specimen. The geo
logical survey makes no assays Tor
private parties.
The government has recently printed
L. s. geological survey bulletin 700, by
w. +. Hillebrand, entitled, "The Analy-
sis Of Silicate and Carbonate Rocks. =
This is a revision of bulletin 305, which
was so highly valued in Germany that
il was translated and republished there.
II contains a detailed description of the
analytical methods employed in the
laboratory of the United States geo
logical survey and represents the cx-
perience gained in the analysis of more
than a thousand igneous rocks alone.
These analyses have been carried to a
degree of completeness previously un-
known. by methods that have been
carefully tested and proved, some of
them devised in the geological survey.

GREAT POWER PROJECT.
Has Purpose to Cut Down Consump
ton of Coal.

! Under the war demand for fuel con
seryation the hydraulic engineers OF
| the United States geological survey
department of the Interior served the
! fuel administration in field study OF
power problems.
A power survey Of the United States
was begun, and at the end Of the war
Secretary Of the Interior Lane asked
of Congress two appropriations, one Of
$4,000. for continuing this power sur
vev over the whole United States, and
the other for S20D,000. for an intensive
survey Of the industrial zone OF the
east, where power requirements are
most congested. AT present in the CEN
trail power plants OF the country water
power carries only about 40 per cent
OF the load, while the total fuel re-
quirements for steam-ge generated power,
including that of the railroads, is not
less than 100000 tons daily. A power
program that calls for the immediate
and full development of every available
and feasible water power, moreover,
means saving both in coal and in man
power, and with this purpose of Sc
curing the double conservation, the in
vestigation has been proposed. The
first step is TO get the facts for the
country as a whole and particularly
for the North Atlantic industrial dis
trict.
This super. power" project, which
engineers agree seems wholly prae-
ticable but which can be regarded as
now only in the vision stage, is TO pool
the power supply for the whole indus
trial area between Boston and Wash
ington, in which is concentrated one
fourth Of the power.geherating capa-
CITY of the country. Such unified
power system would tie together prop
erly located steam electric and hydro
electric plants-old plants that are eff
Client as well as new plants a great
power main from which would flow the
energy to serve score Of railroads,
hundreds Of puhlic-seryice companies,
thousands Of mills and factories, and
millions Of homes.
The subject is necessarily one for in
terstate investigation and is linked
with the national problem Of providing
adequate transportation facilities. Elec-
IRRIGATION Of our railroads would effect
fuel economies of more than 30 per
cent in coal consumed, not to mention
the greater efficiency of electric trae-
ton through increasing road capacity
Equally important, moreover Is the re-
lation Of cheaper power TO American
industry. As stated by Secretary Lane
in a letter transmitting the estimate
for this appropriation, Only by in
creased economy in the production and
distribution of power will i be passi-
bic for our manufacturers TO decrease
their production expenses and compete
successfully in the worlds markets,
maintaining at the same time the
American standard OF wages and liv-
ius."-Annual Report, Director Geolog-
ical Survey.
