Contractors, as a general rule, conduct their business on a profitable  basis, and their customers pay for the  'expense of preparing estimates, since  a profit is made on the aggregate contracts. But this expense is not shared  by all customers in proportion to amount of work done for each' one, for  -which reason general opinion favors'  some plan to equitably apportion this  expense>  A number of plans have been presented and proposed from„ time to  time, but none of them have been considered thoroughly workable in regard  to a proper division of the cost of. estimating. So far, little has really  been accomplished toward putting into practice a method of securing pay-  ment_for this "very necessary "part of  a contractor's business:* Most of these  plans have faileji to make provision  for paying the contractor for submitting estimates on work that does not  go ahead..' It' often occurs that "bids  are asked just'for the purpose of as-  certaining&'hat prices will be quoted.  Then,.again, an entire set of estimates  may [ be thrown, out because the, one  calling for the bids may..have set too  low an amount as the maximum.figure  for the work to be done. Some plan  should be 'devised whereby the contractor will "receive compensation for  all estimates prepared,so that the necessity for burdening contracts received with the cost of preparing estimates on work for which no'contracts  were received, will be obviated.-  .. A new plan which has come to our  attention has;several' interesting feat-  ures. It^provldes that an "owner must  stipulate that the work' involved In  the estimate ' shall not -cost :■ over a  stated -amount, -and of this maximum  cost a certain percentage would be  set aside for division among the three  or fourl lowest bidders. The size of  the contract, would determine the  number of bidders who woiijd be paid  Limited  l7.aram.vSt.  Bar. 1887  Robertson & Dewy  Engineers and Constructs™  sspctms, Drap, Rtyerts, CiRStnctjH  Industrial Plants, Buildings and Equipment'  Wharve*  and   Piers.

NEW VERNON WAREHOUSE  HEARING COMPLETION  VERNON—The large new warehouse  and canning plant of the Okanagan  "United Growers Fruit Products Company here is nearing completion now,  fast time being made by the builders  after having experienced considerable  delay for the past five weeks-owing to  non-delivery of lumber and other materials.

Manager Ferguson states  the machinery and equipment tot, the  evaporator is on the way and.expects  it will be here in time to instal just as  soon as the building is finished.'[.

It is said that the option  runs four years, with royalties/of 15  per cent and no payment for two  yearp, upon condition that $5,000 is  spent yearly meanwhile. Long lower  crosscut tunnels opens~t'ne~a*roperty  to a total depth of 1500 feet, hut little  exploration of the vein, found on that  level, has been attempted. Above No.  5 level the mine has been largely  worked out, but below, that level there  is a large area that may reasonably  be expected to contain ore. The mine  showed an ore-shoot 1200 feet long in  the early days, extending down to the  fifth level from surface. W. 3.
