MARKET DEMAND
IN 1889 SHOWED
6 PERCENT GAIN

Motor fuel demand continued on
the increase in December, accord
ing to the monthly report of the
L. S. Bureau Of Mines, showing a
gain of per cent over a year
ago. The annual total was also a
gain of percent over 1889. This
was despite heavy decreases in ex-
ports. amounting to A percent in
the year 1910. The total stock of
gasoline on December 81 was be-
tween 100000 and 100000 Dbl.
above the amount on hand a year
ago but in terms of days supply
was below last years level.
The total output for oil in 1910
set a new record of 1,351,847, Dbl.
or seven percent over the 1889
total. A decline in exports and an
increase insimports from South Ann
erica resulted in a gain of about
100000 Dbl. in crude stocks during
the year by 100000 Dbl, bring
ing the total to 563,954,O0O Dbl.
of storage oil on Dec. 81, 1910.

MAPLETON PAYS
QUICK DIVIDEND

VIRGINIA CITY-The initial di-
vidend is reported to have been
paid by the Mapleton Gold Mines
Inc, which was organized last
spring to operate the Mapleton
mine here. Payment is said to a.
mount to AZ of the stockholders
investment in the company.
Plans are being made to increase
productions; three carloads Of ore are
being produced weekly at present.
A raise is being driven from the
lower to the upper tunnel. The dow
er tunnel has been driven 1000
feet and the face is said to be in
commercial ore. In addition, the
company is working three slopes
in other parts of the mine. The
raise will supply ventilation and
make 1t possible to speed up explo-
ration of the lower levels.
Values are principally in gold
and silver, but some copper is al
so present in the lower workings.
w. ]. Franklin of Virginia City is
president and general manager.

new PRECIPIT
IS NOW IN USE IN
LOCAL ACM SMEL Ter

Installation of a Cottrell cleo
trict precipitator for precipitation
Of solids in gases from the zinc
rOasters has been put in operation
in the Great Falls smelter Of the
Anaconda Copper Mining company.
Heretofore gases from the roast
ing ovens. containing valuable met
ais. were carried through a series
of dust chambers in the large flue
running up the side Of the hill
to the great stack. In these dust
chambers the gases were filtered
through screens and by gravity.
To recover the deposited metal
1t was necessary to shut down the
roasting operations and send crews
into the flue to clean up the dust.
The Cottrell device does away with
this work. 1t is installed at the
lower end of the flue and preci-
pilates all of the metals found in
the gas into a cOntainer below that
can be emptied at any time without
necessity of shutting down the
roasters.

Engineers Figure
PrOspectOr's Odds

Some idea of the odds involved
in a mining engineers recommenda-
ton of a prospect is given in a
formula recently announced by a
mining engineer:
One in six or eight properties de-
veloped-or one in 60 or 80 exam
ined-can be made to yield a pro-
fit above the cost of development
and equipment. In most cases the
profit is small.
One in four of the profitable
mines-or one in ESQ to 800 of
those examined-will turn out to
be a great success, that will return
more than a million dollars year.

SKILLED MINERS
ARE NEEDED in
BUTTE MINES

BUTTE-The Anaconda Cop
per Mining company is in
need OF skilled miners. Every
miner in this camp is now em-
plOyed but the mines are I'M
able to turn out enough cop
per to satisfy the nations need
for increased supplies OF metal
for the urgent rearmament pro-
gram.
Miners are now working five
days a week and the union
has refused to allow them TO
work six days a week although
this would mean that under
ground men working at the
minimum rate of SO a day
receive 80 for this sixth days
work in each week and con-
tractors. whose average is
about $3.50 a day, would re-
ceive about $1O.75 on the sixth
day.
Accordingly, it is necessary to
increase the size of crews to
increase production. Thus the
call for miners.

hint TO PR0SPECTORS

Here is a hint to Montana pros
pectors who happen to know of a
manganese mine prospect:
Full-scale operation of Montana S
manganese mines will serve to
supply only one-fifth of the coun-
try's requirements. Eighty percent
of the million tons of manganese
needed yearly by steel mills and
heavy industries must be import
ed, although A. c. M. at Butte is
starting the production of $4,000
tons annually, compared with a nor
NAL output of $4,000 tons annually.
Additional manganese properties
could be profitably developed at
this time.

ASKS PRICE OF Is
CENTS FOR COPPER

LANSING, MICH.-Gov. Murray
d. Van Wagner appointed a spe-
cial commission to confer with Of
ficials of the office of production
management in Washington to seek
an increase in the price of copper
from II to Is cents a pound.
The governors action followed
9O-day postponement of a threat
ened strike at the Quincy Mining

duled to begin this morning, was
delayed to permit negotiations for
a price increase, without which. the
company contends, it cannot meet
union demands for wage increases.
