Aladdin Gold Mining and Milling

The forest service recently COM
pleted two miles of new road to

for the first time to truck in sup

houses were recently built by the
company.
The tunnel has been driven about
500 feet on a vein of milling-grade
ore, averaging three feet in width.

FIND BONES OF
MAST0DON EAST
TOWN OF SHELBY

SHELBY-Well preserved bones
of great mastodon or mammoth,
which roamed this country more
than 10000 years ago, have been
unearthed 26 miles northeast of
Shelby. The complete skeleton has
not been uncovered, but leg bones
and teeth clearly show that this
animal, long since extinct, is the
ice-age cousin of the elephant liv-
ing today in India and Africa.
The find was reported by
Cleve Johanssen, county survey
or, whose road crew plowed up sew
eral of the bones while engaged in
elevating the road.
The site has already been visited
by hundreds of persons but care
has been taken to safeguard some
of these larger parts Of the skele-
ton, including two leg bones and
two teeth. which will be put on dis
play in a showcase in the court
house One leg bone of the animal
is seven inches long and five inches
across the top.
George r. Downs, Shelby geol-
ogist and former assistant professor
of geology at the University of Min
nesota, visited the excavation site
and examined the bones. In his OPP
inion the discovery may be Of i'm
portance in showing the type of
animal life and climate which pre-
vailed in Montana in comparatively
recent geological times.

Large Scale Gold Mine
Operation Due At Cooke

BILLINGS Possibilities Of large
scale gold mining operations in
Cooke City that may bring a new
boom" to the 60-year-old mountain
mining camp southwest of Billings,
were envisioned by William w.
Thayer OF San Francisco while in
Billings.
Thayer, formerly an official with
the California state bureau Of
mines, stated that two gold pro-
cessing mills. each capable of hand
ling 1000 tons of low-grade ore
per day, are scheduled to be built
near Cooke City within the next
year. A third mill of the same ca
pacity is being contemplated, he
said.
Large area surface deposits, pro-
ducing low-grade ore running from
81 to 81 per ton have been locat-
ed" Mr. Thayer said. Their, ex-
tent indicates that the largest low
grade operations on this continent
can be developed at Cooke City"
Three large holdings have been
organized by separate groups on
the surface deposits, according to
MI Thayer.
Large claim combinations are
held by the Newmont Mining COM
pany OF New York City, group Of
New York industrialists and by an
English concern. The first two plan
to construct mills very soon and the
English firm is contemplating a
similar move later, he said.
All three of the properties cover
large areas from which the ore can
be removed by open-pit mining,
Thayer said. 1.-THE ore can be quar-
ried and processed cheaply and thus
the operations can be conducted
on a large SCALE" he continued.
Mr.. Thayer stated he went to the
Cooke City area in 1885 to investi-
gate development possibilities on one
IF the three holdings. He added that
ne returned in 1887 and again last
summer to continue his investiga
ion and to assist in organizing the
holdings of the group of New York
ndustrialists
Cooke City may well become a
.ity of 1000 or 5000 people in the
lext two or three years." Thayer

parts of the areas included in
he three claims contain as much as
100000 tons of workable ore to
he acre" he said "And beneath |
he surface deposits in which the |
,old is mixed with shale and broken |
Iuartz, there is a thick vein of gold |
earring quartzite If the claims are |
ully developed Cooke City might |
asily become the site of the largest !

Methods for developing a modern

Puerto Rico today imports 80 per
cent of the cured and canned fish
1t uses, amounting to about 36OOO,-
600 pounds year, according to
Acting Commissioner of Fisheries

confronting not only Puerto Rico,
but the Virgin Islands and Latin
American republics as well.
