are seven feet wide and nine feet
in diameter, and each weights 20

station. Equally interesting and
suggestive of the magnitude of the
machine is the steel shaft upon
which these mammoth drums will
revolve and which is now being
shaped in the lathe. This shaft is
25 feet long and u inches in dia-
meter. The shaft is made of spe-

rough from the east and its sur
face is now being shaved down
and dressed to conform to the re-
quirements of service. 1t will re-

Letter to 0rocknoioerS.
In a letter to Cedar Creek stock
holders under date Of January %,
William Becker, secretary, says:
development IRON the bottom Q.
the shaft has resulted in a gratifying
showing OF ore and has made a sub
stantial addition to the proved ore
reserves. A drift has been extended
40 feet in ore, which has been proved
by prosecuting to be OF good milling
grade. This includes considerable
ore of shipping grade, and the man
agement was hopeful of being able l.
make shipments during the winter in
order to relieve the stockholders OF
assessments. However, this was
found to be impractical on account Of
the cost of sorting and the long haul
to the railroad. The large tonnage
developed on the various levels justi-
fies the construction of a mill as the
only means for profitable production,
and it is to that end that the efforts
of the management will now be di-
rected."
Financial Statement.
Mr.. Becker also submits financial
statement and trial balance covering
the affairs of the company during the
year ending December 81, 1928. Re
ceipts for the year were S42,2OS.S4'
most Of which is accounted for in the
sale of treasury stock and assess
ments. Almost half of the disburse-
ments during the year were for labor
in doing development work, amounting
to $2O.12S.47.

to be operating as smoothly and eff

~ MYSTICAL connection between
the Montana Power company
and the Washington Water
Power company is now an ac-
complished fact, making the two great
electric power companies practically
one SO far as available service is con-
ceRned from Billings. and Lewistown
Mont, to the Pacific coast. This an
nouncement was made at the meeting
of the board of trade yesterday by Nj.

tendent of the Montana Power COM

interchange of Power.
In making the formal announce
ment. Mr. Buck stated that the con-
nection between the two great sys-
TENS had been effected through the
Idaho Transmission company, the
corporate name under which the Mon
tana Power company does business IN
Idaho. By this connection the Wash
ington Water Power company VIII be
able to conserve its power and meet
the demands further west by drawing
upon the surplus power of the Mon
tana company to supply the demands
for power in the Occur d'Alene dis
trict, or in case of shortage OF power
in either company or to meet any
emergency. either company Will be IN
nosition to draw upon the other In
other words, the union of these Two
companies is an important step IN the
present policy of large public service
corporations to make provision Tor all
emergencies that might result in loss
or inconvenience to the public.
Mr.. Buck was followed by ii. L.
Melvin, of the Washington Water
Power company, who emphasized the
advantages of the connection OF the
two systems in placing his company
in position to render untaillng
service in the Occur d'Alenes.
Best Possible Line.
The connection between the TWO
great power companies was made by
the construction of a line from the
Mullan Junction. the name OF the
mower station at Woodland Park and
the Montana power station above
Burke. a distance of about six and
half miles. This line was constructed
bv the Washington Water Power COM
panv. and A. H. BecNwith, assistant
superintendent of light and power
describes it as the best line that his
company knows how to build when
is taken to mean that it could not be
improved upon. These representa-
tives of the two companies
came here for the purpose of formal
ly turning on the juice" which marks
the contamination of the cooperative
plans of the two organizations and
which will have a far-reaching erect
in the distribution of electric power IN
the northwest.

this week it will be noted that only
two pens, 2 and 20, produced 20 eggs

One Of these individuals making a

1t is hard to guess the number of

hard to figure the individuals that
