C, Friday, Seffembeb 3, 1926\n5 cents each,\nSensational Ore Broken\nInto During Mining\nat LaRose\nThe richest deposit of high grade\nsilver ore ever found in the Alice\nAriri district and probably in British\nColumbia was broken into the latter\npart of last week, during mining\noperations at the LaRose.\nA piece of this ore of considerable\nsize, reposes in the office of Miles\nDonald, manager of the mine. It\nis composed of quartz crystals joined\ntogether with native silver, the silver\nin the crevices is much wider than\na silver dollar, and it is estimated\nthat the ore is composed of one third\npure silver. A wonderful specimen\nof ore, and which give,s convincing\nproof of the rich ore contained in\nthe district, awaiting the hand of\nman to develop.\nThe ore was found during mining\noperations at a verticle depth of 140\nfeet, which somewhat disproves\nprevious- statements of geologists\nthat high grade silver ore does not\ncarry values at depth. Ore is where\nyou find it, despite all geologists'\nstatements to the contrary.\nMining of ore at the LaRose is\nbeing carried on uninterruptedly, on\na vein varying from 6 inches to 12\ninches wide at a depth of 140 feet.\nThe vein at present is being drifted\non to the north at the bottom of the\nraise. The vein also comprises\nabout two feet of good milling ore,\nfrom which a handsome profit can\nbe obtained when a mill is installed.\nNearly 20 tons of ore has been\nsacked for shipment, which will be\nshipped when 40 tons are available.\nBy making large shipments, transportation costs can be considerably\nlowered.\nMins>g Men are Investigating\nAlice Arm\nBert F. Smith, superintendent of\nI the Premier mine at Stewart,\nI accompanied by G. G. Gilchrist,\n[arrived in Alice Arm on Monday,\n[and are making a general examination of the camp. Mr. Smith was\nIhere in 1919, and his visit chiefly\nlis to mark tho progress made in\n|mining since that date.\nB. M. Sharp, of Spokane, who\nlias spent a week in camp examining mining properties, expects to\n|eave for the south today. .\nW. B. Timm, of the Dominion\n|)epartment of Mines was a visitor\nIn town during the early part of\nIhe week gathering information.'\n|lachinery for Toric Mine\nArrived on Monday\nliA considerable portion of ma-\niinery for the concentrating mill\nJthe Toric mine arrived on Mon-\nly from Vancouver on the S. S.\njfrdena, and tlie balance is expee-\n1 to arrive at an early date.\nIt is the intention of tlie Consoli-\n(bed Homestake Mining & Devel-\naent Co. to have the mill oper-\nthis fall, and continue iu\nbration throughout the coming\nliter.\nAlice Arm Is Attracting\nMining Engineers\nDuring the present year, more\nmining engineers have visited the\nAlice Arm district than .has been\nthe case for many years. All of\nthem represent influential mining\ncompanies. Instead of rushing\nover, the ground and covering the\nwhole territory in about two days,\nthey have made a systematic\nexamination, and in some cases\ntheir visit has extended for several\nweeks. This shows that they\nconsidered the district rich enough\nto spend their valuable time in.\nAlthough no new deals have been\nmade to date, owners of mining\nproperties should not be too\nimpatient.\" It often takes consid\nerable time to formulate plans for\na large undertaking. The engin\neei'8 are coming in; they see for\nthemselves the possibilities of the\noamp, which is an assurance that\nthe mineral wealth will be developed.\nMcMorris Well Pleased With\nLeRoy Showings\nW. G. McMorris, manager ofthe\nKitsault-Eagle Mines Ltd. returned\nfrom an inspection of the LeRoy\nproperty during the week. He\nwas greatly enthused with the\ntremendous large ore deposits and\npredicted that a big mine will be\ndeveloped there in the future. The\nproperty extends to the summit of\nLeRoy mountain, and the ore body\ntraverses the highest peak.\nAnyox Shipping Notes\nS. S.

Mining men\nof the south are confident that Alice\nArm is next in line for big developments, and the camp is receiving a\ngreat deal of attention. Events\nare being watched with great\ninterest. Alice Arm is recognized\nas a camp of vast mining potentialities, and its early development on\na big scale will shortly be consummated. The splendid ore display at\nthe Vancouver Exhibition of the\npast two years have played an\nimportant part in attracting attention, and the conservative programme of publicity being carried\nout by the local branch of the\nChamber of Mines will keep alive\nthe interest aroused, and also\nacquaint those who have not heard\nof our large mineral resources.\nBig Ore Showings on\nMarnmot Metals Will\nbe Tunnelled\nPortland Canal News\nAngus McLeod, managing director of the Marmot Metals Mining\nCo., visited the property this week\nand reports having found very satisfactory progress being niade.\nThis season's exploration work,\nhe said, has resulted in the location\nof four parallel veins, on the east\nend of the property, striking up and\ndown the mountain in a large\nmineralized zone.\nUp until the last week work has\nbeen confined to tracing these out,\nand open cutting, though the first\npart of the season necessitated considerable trail building in order to\nget to them. One of the center\nveins has been traced from the top\nof the mountain down over very\nsteep ground to near the bottom of\ntho hill, a-differenoe in elevation of\nsome 2000 feet. Three cuts on this\nvein recently sampled by a competent and thoroughly experienced\nperson independent of the company\ngave the following results: $30.50;\n115.50 and $19.50. These three\ncuts varied in width from five to\n15 feet. The values were in gold,\nsilver and zinc, with the latter mineral predominating.\nMr. McLeod stated that he is\nincreasing the crew immediately\nfor the purpose of driving two\ntunnels, one on each of two veins\nin order to explore these showings\nunderground as much as possible\nbefore snow flies. Both these\ntunnels will be in ore from the\nportals and will gain about one\nfoot of depth for eaoh foot driven.\nThey are roughly 150 feet apart.\nMr. and Mrs. W. J.

Pure beer can\nonly be made in a modern brewery by scientifically trained brewmasters who have at their disposal the most modern equipment and who are\nbound by the most exacting standards.\n,?rpHE same materials which, in a modern brewery, are\nX made into pure, healthful beer, can become, in the\nhands of a home brewer, a raw, incompletely fermented, indigestible and harmful mixture unfit for consumption. But where an established brewery uses only\nthe highest grade of material\u00E2\u0080\u0094malt and hops\u00E2\u0080\u0094tested for\npurity, the home brewer is forced to purchase in stores\nimported syrup concoctions of inferior malt and low-grade\nhop extracts frequently blended with synthetic essences.\nTTie product of such mixtures is always harmful to the\nstomach and digestive system and dangerous to drink for\nany length of time.\nTHE home brewer is hampered not only by lack of\nknowledge of the science of brewing, but home\nequipment does not include the elaborate plant necessary for prolonged sterilization and filtering to assure\na pure, healthful beer free from bacterial infection. In\nbeer that is the product of a perfectly equipped brewery\nall fermentation is complete; in home-brewed beer fermentation continues, and continues after it is consumed.\nIt is really an explosive mixture, whether in your stomach\nor in the bottle, as shown by the way in which bottles\nexplode and tops are blown off.\nTJOME-BREWED beers are usually higher In alcoholic eon-\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2* tent than th*y should he. In the beers supplied by the\nAmalgamated Breweries to the people of British Columbia\nthrough licensed premises or through government stores the\nalcohollo strength Is only i% per cent., the most favorable\nstrength for the stimulation of the stomaoh toward aiding\ndigestion. Home-brewed beers also usually contain greater or\nless percentages of deadly fusel oil, from whioh properly\nbrewed, stored and aged beers are free.\nANT physician oan tell of the dangers of home-brewed beer,\nfrom whioh, happily, the people of British Columbia are\nfree, for they have the privllego of obtaining pure, good beer\nmade by the Amalgamated Breweries of British Columbia in\nplants that are equipped with every faollity for the brewing\nof pure beer, perfeotly flavored, well matured and healthful.\nVisitors are cordially welcomed at the plantt\nof the members of the Amalgamated Breweries of British Columbia: Vancouver Breweries, Limited; Rainier Brewing Co. of\nCanada.
