Capacity of present plant 100 gal Ions of furnished product during 10 hours, with thu help of four men at n cost of $10.00 per day.

Tho Oregon Sionna-.Minural Co.'i mine is located near thu Willamette river, In tho South-eastern purl of Lane county, two miles west of Walker, 11 station (West) on the Southurn Pacific Knllwny, whero thu company own 02 acres of land where borings hnvu been made, and whero through other mentis of prod puctlug, such uh sinking shafts anil tunneling, It has been determined beyond a doubt that a supply Is oh tainablo practically Inexhaustabte, vnrylng In colors from gray, yellow and maroon, from which almost any other color desirable can bu hud by proper mixing.
