The deeper workings of the Leadville mines show refractory ores, consisting principally of sulphides of iron, lead, and zinc, carrying silver, in place of the easily reduced carbonate ores lying nearer the surface. The largest and most extensively developed deposit is that of South Iron Hill.* It lies on the north side of California Gulch,

Experimental data are presented showing the influence of size consist and firing rate upon the performance of bituminous coal-fired, single-retort, industrial underfeed stokers. Size segregation, degradation, and distributor data are also included. The conclusion is reached that size consist of the fuel as fired, is a critical factor in its performance on this class of equipment.

An examination has been made of the structures of strand cast blooms and the rails rolled from them; this paper details the characteristics of these typical structures. Results of mechanical testing data show that this product compares with rails processed from conventional ingot steel. Improvement in processing yields and surface quality standards are also briefly discussed.

Mr. Vissac's study is very elaborate and complete and gives a clear idea both of phenomena occurring during operation of the feldspar jigs and results ob- tained by some of them in Europe. I have no intention of going into a complete discussion, but I would like to give a few comments about these results already

A NOTED Prospector Passes-Stories of the grizzled old prospector that discovered what turned out to be a famous and highly profitable mine, only to die in poverty through the shenanigans of "the Interests," are legion. It is pleasant, therefore, to be able to report that the discoverer of one of Canada's most famous mines was more fortunate.

ALMOST all the hazards productive of accidents are present in churn drill operation-exposed electrical cables, open machinery, moving parts located overhead, exposure to weather, and movement of heavy machinery-all are part of the job. But, a check list of danger spots and full use of countermeasures will produce maximum safety here, as on any other operation.

ISOMETRICAL drawing and clinographic projection are generally preferred to perspective drawings for representation of small objects or complicated mechanisms, as they present to the eye a sufficiently accurate picture of the object, while they possess great advantages over perspective in the simplicity and rapidity of execution, and the facility they give for taking measurements directly from the drawings.
