DOWNEY & BABCOCK PLAN INSTALLATION
 SMALL MESH MILL

AS a result of extensive tests of their ores with a view to ascertain how much and why his mill values did not check with assay returns, it is the plan of Tom Babcock and Dave Downey to eventually install ball mill capable of reducing the ore to pass through a 2OO-mesh screen.
 MT. Babcock, while having his tests made in the States, was sur prised to find ores which had re- turned but $40 a ton to average $220 under the fine grinding and recovery process.
 The results of the Babcock and Downey flow sheet test will prove of inestimable value to many who have small mills and those who contemplate establishment of mills. Under these flow sheet tests, not only is the full value of the ore ascertained, but the correct pro- cess for recovery of every unit of value possible is supplied
 It is now possible to install pilot mills which may be added to with out scrapping the original plant, thus guarding against heavy losses in tailings.
 It costs from $500 to $1, 900 to se- cure 9 full flow sheet and obtain the technical direction as to the best method of treatment.
 Many prospects in the vicinity of Seward which were set down many years ago as failures because of the crudity of milling facilities, in all probabilities may become consistent producers under proper tests of ores and the introduction of suitable reduction plants.
