now 1900 feet from the shaft, and it will be pushed to Gratoit ground. Connection will be made between the shafts when Gratoit is sunk to a cor responding depth. The 9th level drift, 800 feet in length, and the 4th level slope continue to develop good values.
 While it will take the mines now idle considerable time to get started once operations are resumed, owing to the fact that it will be necessary to build up new organizations and labor may not be plentiful if revival in industry is general, this will not be true of the Calumet & Hecla rec lamation plant. That plant will be able almost immediately to produce at maximum rate. Just previous to the shutdown it had attained the record output of 1,S96,00U pounds. Labor will be the governing factor in bringing the production of the mines up to desired total. There is some fear that labor will be scarce after the available local supply is taken on in asmuch as it is believed that an in crease in the demand for copper will be simultaneous with a nation wide industrial recovery.
 Mayflower- Old Colony still has cop per in it's south drift at the 1700-foot level. This vein is now in about 200 feet with copper showing for more than 50 feet. The east crosscut is still in trap. Apparently the hope of Mayflower lies to the south where values now appear more persistent. It is possible that work in the cross cut may be suspended shortly and all attention directed, toward the south.
 Quincy is one mine that will be in splendid shape to respond to sub stantial improvement in the copper metal market. With the improve ments that have been made in the mills and smelters, underground con ditions were never better.
 Quincy's new furnace, having a capacity of 15O,OOO pounds of copper daily, will be completely equipped within a months time. It has been partially in use but its casting equip- ment has not yet been wholly install ed. The furnace is of a type similar to those in use at the Michigan and Calumet & Hecla smelters.
 In the milling plant alf but one or the five units have been equipped with regrind sections, which resulted last wear in a 1ORo savings, increasing the copper yield just that much.

will not be kept secret but will be available to all and will benefit the entire district. It is the hope of Cal umet & Hecla to establish certain fun damental facts that will greatly aid in the uncovering of new copper de- posits, thereby doing away to a large extent with the present hit or miss methods of exploration and develop ment which have proved so costly in the past. The survey has been under way for two years and it may take that much longer to complete. |-
 Seneca continues to open good look ing ground in it's north drift in the 9th level, now about 200 feet from the shaft. Drilling also is continuing with good success in the upper levels. The third level drift is the longest,
