It is planned that ! the milling of mine cre, which was begun on September 17, will be con- tinued throughout the winter, with every expectation that the general wverage of mill production and per- entage of recovery will approxi- mate closely the daily average that been made during the last two voeks in September. A healthy program of mine devel- opment work has been carried on during the last quarter, a total of 648 feet of underground work having * |been accomplished, a total of 644 | feet of diamond drill holes having cen driven and 712 tons of ore { | mined and trammed to the mill Mill operation and production have been steady also with a gross | mill production during the past | quarter from mine ore and retreated | tailings amounting to $86,285.92. Of | this, more than 5800 tons of tail- ngs were retreated with an average recovery of $14.69 per ton. The 712 tons of mined ore treated showed an average value of $56.51 per ton. | Mr. Whitham states that all con- | centrates produced last winter and | | stored-have now been shipped 0 the smelter and shipment of con- centrates now being produced will | continue as long as transportation | ‘o the coast is available, either over the highway to Valdez or the rail- {road from Chitina to Cordova. | Supplies and equipment needed to continue operating through the winter and until June 15 of next year are on hand and practically all of it has been freighted in and | stored at the mine camp. | 3 j“BlackiDnmp" Maie Helpful to Miners WASHINGTON, Oct. 20.—Chem- known tobacco company that mann- factures “they satisfy” Chesterfield | cigarettes and the equally famous products of Velvet and Granger smcking tobaccos well as - the! chewing tobaccos, Horseshoe | and Masterpiece. | “Chesterfield cigarettes are still| leaders in the Territory,” said Mr. | Knowles today. “They must ‘satis- fy’ as sales show an increase in all | Alaska sections. Velvet is still lead- | ing with smokers with Granger a | close second. Star tobacco seems | to be the leader in the Territory for | |those who chew. “On the creeks, as well as in the chief cities of the Territory which 1 have visited in my trade calls, I (find conditions excellent. Both pla- cer and quartz operaticns had a splendid year and production, T pre- | dict, will be large. Of course many placer plants have shut down for| the season and the men are drifting into Alaska towns to spend the win- | ter or are going outside awaiting | operations to resume next year, per- haps as early as April, Improvements of streets, and water mains and an unprece- | dented building boom, noted in my | travels, has taken care of all un- mployment situations.
