THAWING PROBLEMS ARE BEING STUDIED .fT THE
 LITTLE CREEK CAMP

The activities at the Little Creek camp of the U S Smelling. Refu- ing and Mining Company at the present time is being confined in {, great measure to thawing the ground, this in the opinion of those in charge. being the first and most important step in the dredging op- erations.
 In the first place force of en- sineers is on the ground at all times making experiments, watch ing the progress of the drills. talk ing temperatures and checking up on the progress of the holes as they are thawing. In this way il is becoming possible to estimate the time that it will take to thaw Ia given area to bedrock
 The scene of the cold water thawing operations is interesting indeed and to understand it one should go back to the start-the ditch lines which bring the water from the mountains
 Opposite the camp. near the base of Anvil Mountain. the thawing water Is taken from the .Miocene ditch, into forty-eight inch wood stave pipe line which branches in t" double "Y" near the camp. The mains run from this point to the various scenes of activity.
 At the thawing locations the water mains are tapped by the header pipes-each about six inch es in iameter-which run in par alle lines about thirty-two feet apart across the ground which is to be thawed. From these lines at intervals of sixteen to thirty two feet small taps feed the pipes that run to bedrock in the holes
 As the thawing progresses, the ground sinks around the points in an overwhelming circle and as these holes spread they meet mak- ing the whole area workable for the dredges to start operations.
 At this writing there are over HOO points in the ground ahead oi the different dredges and from distance the pipes sticking into the air with their heavy hose con nections makes scene resembling corn field. To add color to the scenes are the turtle-like drills squating along on their lines pre- pairing the way for the thawing crew, and their putting and grunt- ing goes on night and day working the heavy drills down to bedrock.
 With this concentration o3 work oi. the thawing of the ground and Nperimentation with other means O: thawing. the company hopes to ing without interruption when they get started
