The process is largely the work of Arthur Hand Burton, metallur- gical chemist, and involves the use of both the cathode ray and Has- selmar current of dynamic electric- ity, the latter voltage varying from 500,000 to 3,500,000. Numerous experiments over a period of more than a year with ability to recover radium by the new process has been demonstrated, John Martin, President of the Mar- john Mines Company said. The ore has been taken from the Old Moth~ er Lode property, virtually a limit- Iess deposn in Calaveras County. m ‘a hostess it’s . 1" | =y at a time 2 A Fw pounds at a time— continuously — is the way Hi lll Bros. roast their coffee. gnemed process— trolled ' Roasting — produces a flavor such as no bulk- roasted coffee has, Fresh from the original vacuum pack.
