Tiger Property to be Developed. Adjoins Toric Has Big Ledges of High Grade The Tiger property, whioh is con sidered one of the most promising silver properties in the Alice Arm district, will be further developed this year by Mr. Ed. Pickett, the owner, who arrived on Thursday from California for this purpose. The Tiger joins the Toric on the north. It has had considerable development in the past, and with extremely gratifying results. The ore ledge ranges up to twenty feet in width, and has a length of about 600 feet. It has a north and south strike, and dips west to the Kitsault River. Surface work consists of eight open cuts on the ledge. The first work this year will consist of stripping the ledge where it encounters the rock slide on the south towards the Toripv The ledge at this point was 20 feet wide, shown by the open cut on the edge of the heavy wash. The Tiger was bonded Jn 1919 to Henry B. Price of Victoria, for $140,000, who did some shallow diamond -drilling - on- the north part of the ledge, which proved that the Tiger possesses high grade silver ore bodies, of considerable magnitude, at a depth of over 100 feet. A tunnel 140 feet in length, with a vertical depth of 142 feet was also driven, which showed the ore ledge to be 18 feet wide, 6 feet of which ran high in silver values. This tunnel will probably be extended this year in order to encounter the high grade ore located by the diamond drill, 5 feet of which assayed 213 ozs. silver per ton. Owing to the sudden drop in the price of silver, and the general inactivity of mining throughout the province, the bond on the Tiger was allowed to lapse, and since that time no work has been done. It is the opinion, however, of Mr. Pickett, after making a careful survey of mining conditions throughout the continent, that the time is ripe for developing this promising property, and prove conclusively that the Tiger has high grade ore in quantities large enough to satisfy any mining company who are seeking new properties. The Tiger is oentrally located in the rioh mineral /.one of the upper Kitsault' country. It joins the Torio on the north, whose wonderful ore discoveries are making suck a sensation. On the south it joins The Three Muskateers, which was sold in 1910 to A. D. Meenack for $75,000. It is situated only about 1J miles from the end of the Dolly Varden railway, so that transportation i problems will be neglible. Mr. Pickett, since leaving here over four years ago, has been in- LaRose Co. Ready to Start Tunnel Mr. J. M. Morrison, who returned to Alioe Arm on Tuesday from Stewart and Anyox, where he was successful in disposing of considerable stock of the LaRose Mining Co., states that everything ia now in roadiness for the driving of the tunnel on the LaRose property. There are ample funds in the treasury for the undertaking of this work, and a commencement is planned on or before June 1st. It is estimated that a tunnel 400 feet long will be necessary in order to strike the ore at depth. A contract for this work will be let immediately to local men. Anyox Scouts Camp at Larcom Island On May 9th. and 10th. the Anyox No. 2 troop spent an enjoyable week-end in camp ou Larcom Island. The weather being ideal the time was profitably spent in scouting and swimming. Three scouts were successful in second class tests, namely: Scout Harris of the Eagles, Scout Dwyer of the Wolves, and Scout McMillan oi the Bulldogs, the tests including (ire fighting, cooking, first-aid, signalling and compass. The scouts, who slept out in the open, voted for outdoor sleeping all the time and declared that they were not the least bit cold. Arriving home at about 7.30 Sunday evening all were pleasantly tiredt ready for a good night's sleep and in the pi.uk of condition. Another Big Log Boom Leaves For South A tugboat arrived in port on Monday and towed out 1,500.000 feetb.m. of logs from the booms of Eric Carlson. These logs are destined for Ocean Palls, and will be anchored at Green Inlet while the tug returns for another boom on the 18th. The next boom will comprise 1,000.000 feet for Prinoe Rupert, and about 850,000 ft. for Ocean Falls. Baseball on Twenty-first The baseballers will get under way the twenty-first of this month, The Mine and Elks will be, the attraction. ' Kitsault River Mining Co. Hold Meeting Will Develop Soon as Possible The regular statutory meeting of the Kitsault River Mining and Development Co., Ltd.. was held on Friday evening, May 8th. at their office. A fairly large number of shareholders were present, The financial position of the company was shown to be in a very healthy state, and the future outlook of the company appears very bright. Mr. A. D. Yorke ,was appointed seoretary to the company. It is the intention of the company to commence active development work as soon as the snow is off the ground and supplies freight ed in. Mr. O. Flint plans to visit the property in the near future, to ascertain conditions in the upper Kitsault country. Mr. Elmer Ness will leave for the south on Monday, in connection with company business. He will visit the chief southern towns, and will probably extend his visit- to Spokane. Alice Arm Beer Parlor Opened on Thursday The beer parlor of the Pioneer Hotel, operated by N. Sutilovich. was opened to the public on Thurs day evening, who quickly availed themselves .of the opportunity to indulge iu a glass of beer at a nominal price. The general opinion was that the beer was good. Service was first class, and that such a place will fill a long felt want. The parlor is provided with tables and chairs, and ample accommodation has been provided to cope with any rush that may occur during the hot weather period. terested in mining, and has visited most of the oamps of the western states since that time. In no place he has visited has he seen such large ore bodies of silver ore, and such a promising mineral belt as the upper Kitsault Oountry, especially the portion extending from the Dolly Varden to the Moose, and prediots that this camp will shortly be the scene of great activity, and Alioe Arm will then take her plaoe as the leading mining oamp of northern. B C. Forthcoming Events A dance will he held at the Alice Arm Hotel on Saturday M»7 23rd. by a party from Anyox, who will bring over their orchestra. The Townsfolk are invited to attend. The Anyox Lodge B. P. O. Elks will conduct an excursion to Alice Arm on Sunday May 24th. and a number will stay over until the following day. Members of the Anyox Lodge Loyal Order of Moose will pay us a visit on May 31st, They will hold a Lodge meeting in the afternoon. They hope to bring over the Anyox Band and enliven the day with some of the high class musio for which the band is famous. Builds Trestle at Toric Messrs. T. Tavener, J. Fiva and P. Johnson, returned on Thursday from the Toric Mine, where they have constructed a trestle, which will be used for dumping waste from the mine. Two Old Timers Back In Alice Arm Al Miner, who is numbered among the earliest residents of Alice Arm, returned ou Thursday from California, where he has spent the past four or five years. Al. is one of the successful pioneers of the camp, who was instrumental iu placing Alice Arm on the map. He was the locater and part owner of the "Three Musk- eeters," which joins the Tiger on the north, and which was sold to A. D. Meenack in 1919 for $75.- 000. Al. also owns a quarter interest in the Toric mine. ' Ed. Pickett, who is another of the pioneer prospectors of the camp, arrived on Thursday from California, where he has resided since his departure four and a half years ago. Ed. is the owner of the Tiger property, which joins the Toric on the north, and which is considered one of the most promising properties in the whole Alice Arm district. He states that mining is in an extremely healthy state throughout the southern states, and is confident that the time is ripe for a revival of mining activity on a large scale in this district. He intends to vfo considerable development on the Tiger this year. Granby Co. to Commence Development of Standard Next Week *_ It is understood that the Granby Co. will commence active development work on the Standard property on McGrath mountain next week. The original plans called for surface stripping of the ore bodies, to be followed by diamdnd drilling, and it is probable that this policy will be carried out. The first work to be done, however, will be repairing the trail and providing accomodation for employees.

May 16. 1925 Alice Arm & Anyox Herald Issued every Saturday at Alice Arm Alice Arm and Anyox $2.50 Yearly Other Parts of Canada, $2.75 British Isles and United States, $3.00 Notices for Crown Grants - - $10.00 Land Notices- - - - $10.00 Coal Notices ... - $6.00 Transient Advertising, 50c. per inch Contract Bates on Application. E. MOSS, Editor and Publisher. Henry Ford has just signed an advertising appropriation which calls for the expenditure within a year of $6,000,000. William Wrigley, the chewing gum manufacturer, spent last year $3,500,000 for advertising, while there was spent in 1913 in magazine advertising alone—to say nothing of the much larger amount spent in newspapers—the following amounts by representative concerns: Campbell's Soup, $1,460,350; Colgate & Co., $1,184,439; Proctor & Gamble $1,167,550. and Congoleum & Co., $1,142,450. It is scarcely necessary to say that these advertisers would not have spent their money if they were not getting results, and the fact that each year their advertis- appropriation is larger than the preceding year speaks volumes for the value of advertising. The lesson is here for anyone who cares to profit by it and it applies not alone to national advertisers but to local advertisers, who, if they are to keep their names before the public and develop their market, must spend money to advertise. Anyox Mine Football Team Win from Beach The second game of the football schedule was played Friday even ing, bringing together the Mine and Beach teams. The men from the hill were in the best form and turned the Beach back three goals to nil. The Miners were superioi at all stages of the game and weli deserve to win. The losers however, have the making of a fine eleven, and when the players gel to understand each other's style of play, they will be a hard combination to beat. The first goal was a gift to the Mine, when Ingram scored one against his own side in an attempt to clear from in front of the goal. Dearlove notched the other two, both from close in, the goalkeeper having no chanoe. Pynne was a tower of strength on the defence for the winners, always being there when wanted. Jimmie Twaddle, handled the whistle in fine style, giving satisfaction to players and spectators alike. The Teams were: Mine: Royle, Pynne, S. Stewart, Gilmour, R. Stewart, S. Cane, Hunter, Dearlove, Peters and Jack. Beach: Hunter, Brown, Lavery, Evans. Taylor, Hogben, Wilson. Stevens, Ellison, Ingram and Craggs. Lecturer: "Yes, my friends, in China human life is considered of very little value. Indeed, if a wealthy Chinaman is condemned to death he can easily hire another to die for him. In fact, many poor fellows get their living by acting as substitutes," Granby Co. Fails to Show Profit for Last Year Depreciation Again Wipes Out Profit The report of the Granby Consolidated Mining, Smelting and Power company for the year ended December 31,1924, shows a deficit of $772,373, after taxes, interest, depreciation and depletion, as compared with a deficit of $717,287, in 1923. Granby earned net profits before depreciation, but after interest and all operating charges of $832,391 in 1924, compared with $777,326 in 1923, although the average price obtained for copper in 1924 was 13.012 cents a pound against 14.- 848 in 1923. In every way, 1924 results were the best since the war, stated J*. T. Crabbs, president. The outstanding feature of the year was improvement in the position of the company's net current assets. Bank loans were reduced approximately $750,000 in 1923, or a total of $1,400,000 in the last two years. Further reduction has been made since the close of the year, so now, Colonel Crabbs states twice current liabilities. Betterment in net quick assets has been accomplished concurrently with the completion of a large construction program, involving a storage dam, hydroelectric extension and concentrator, to which approximately $1,340,000 of earnings have been applied to meet the bulk of the expenditure. The company mined 928,830 tons of ore from the high-grade reserve. As diamond drill prospecting add- t;d 798,000 tons to reserve in 1924, high grade reserves totalled approximately 7,500,000 tons at the end of 1924. averaging 2 per cent, copper, decrease of only 130,830 tons for the year. Diamond drill exploration is to be continued during the coming year. The Anyox concentrator, which ■started April. 1924, dressed 251,- 898 tons of ore averaging 1.535 per cent, copper, capacity having been brought up to 1200 to 1400 tons a day by the end of the year. The concentration ratio was 10.103 tons- into 1 and the recovery of 81.396 per cent, of the copper in the feed. With the completion of the concentrator, storage dam, and hydroelectric extensions, no further large capital expenditures are anticipated.

Portland Canal Newi Work was started this week on the Porter Idaho, the contractors, Gus. Erickson and O. Cedar, accompanied by Clay Porter, president and managing director, having gone up to the property last Tuesday. They were preceded by several days by three men, who would have the oamp in order and the tunnel site cleared of snow by the time the contractors arrived. The working orew comprises some of the best miners of the camp and fast progress is expeoted of them in driving the300-ft. cross- out tunnel for which the contraot calls. The ground is comparatively easy to work; Later, when it is possible to get pack horses to the property, a second crew will be put to work under Mr. Porter's personal supervision, getting out ore from the existing tunnels and continuing them.

Every odd number cabin is closed, and this is probably a permanent order. Those remaining open are No's two, four, six and eight. Four of the operators are now on their way out, they being Seotty Ogilvie^ Dave Hagerden, Denny Green and W. H. Larmer. The men left on the line, it is believed, will be able to keep it open in case of emergency, until the experiments have been completed and the government decides which system it will continue in future. Protests against abandoning the old telegraph line have been sent to Ottawa from Haaelton and northern districts. Alberta's population at the end of 1924 was approximately 640.- 00, according to an estimate made hy the provincial government, This is an increase of 52.000, as compared with 1921, when the last official census was taken.
