The form this shall t.ike had been left entirely to tho judgment of the trustees, Messrs. R. V. Carter, J. 1. Dodge and W. J. Moore. V Mr. and Mrs. Root made their home Ashland for ninny years, and wore active In every movement for tho bet terment of Ashland. They came to the valley forty yearn uro, with the entrance of ilie railroad. Mr. Hoot, a civil engineer, working with the en gineering crews, locating tho present Southern Pacific route from the north, later engaged on the Northern Paci fic, and with the Hammond Interests on the Astoria road. stil later mana ger for them on 'tho railroad from Kureka to San Francisco. Vncntlons were always spent in Ashland and their later years, up until Mr. Root's death In 1!21, Many suggest ions are coming in to the trustees, one of thorn is that the ; bequest be used for the mode) train ing cottage In connection with the Southern Oregon Normal school; an other is that an orphans' home, pri marily for tho orphans of Jackson county, lie constructed a a memorial. ; Tho decision rests wjih tho directors, however, and without doubt it will be a wise and Just one, and in accord with the wishes of the donors of the hi'iimst. Mr. and Mrs. John K. Ronar, their house guest. Miss Cora Crews, of Chi- f';,tiot Mrs. Rlackwood, of I'hoenix and liss I'.dna tioheen, of Ashland, one of the teachers of Junior High School, , leave Monday morning for a trip to 'rater Lake. This is Miss Crews first visit to the valley anil she is being giv en many pleasant outings by her hosts. M r.

After a wedding trip, they will be at home in Med ford, Ore. Miss Alice Kidder writes that she will teach the coming year at Temple ton, Calif., at a material increase in salary. Miss Kidder was the head of the Commercial department in Ash land H igh last year, nnd under her efficient tutelage the state, champion ship was won by tho Ashland students. Miss Zipora Blumenfeld nnd Miss Kthel Wheeler sail shortly from Se attle via Panama for New york to en ter their year's work at Columbia. Both will be greatly missed in Ash land, where they taught. Miss Blu menfeld for a number of years as head of the physical education depart ment, and Miss Wheeler as English teacher in High school.

Edited by SoulluVestern Thlw artit'le Ih written for the Kimiil operator who has it Htanii mill and who platen uml roru'enirutos his ore. It U our purport to point out how cheaply a Kiuall cyanide plant can ho erected ns an adjunct to an existing xmall niill and how easily and cheaply it can he operated without much technical knowledge. 1 If you have free milling ore and '... i,. Illn.- wm.1,1 nvAr.. n:i l..w iik f l.Mi per ton, you ran make an addi- . prnfu hy .,,,.. ,f ,h0 ,. I in(.9 h(.hr you wlM o( orur!il. I ,,eltr ,,, nm ,,, ,,ny : ,,.,, t ft lllInKS lll0 jt tloes lo trout 1 . n 0 tnilliiKH. - Tho method we recommend l the time honored. nocalled "PercolntlnK Process." that has been in use for more than thirty years. In cases out of 100 the battery tailings are quite fine enough for cynniding. so don't think that you have lo put In expensive machinery for regrinding. All you need are leaching tanks, plac. ed below the mill, precipitation boxes and one solution lank. Most text books will tell you that you need separa t e su m p ta n ks n nd storage tanks for weak and strong solution and that the ore has to be treated first with weak solution and then with strong solution and then again with weak solution. But nil these are un necessary complications which the small operator does not need.' All he needs Is one sump tank placed below the precipitation boxes in which tho cyanide solution, coming from these boxes, is collected and from which it is pumped back to the leaching tanks. If you operate, for instance, a five stamp mill. nnd crush 20 tons of ore in 24 hours, about one-half of your rock will be sand of different degrees of fineness and one-half will be slimes. By the percolating process you can treat nil of our sand and about one half of the slamcs you make in the battery. The other half of the slimes or approximately 25 per cent of the total rock you crush, will .consist of extremely fine slimes which will have to bo treated by another method which wo will dcsarlhe in another ar ticle. Tho teaching tanks nre equipped with a filtering medium In the bottom and the tailings run by gravity from the battery into these tanks. In or der to spread them out evenly over the whole surface of the tank a so called distributor is used. When the tank is full you pump cyanide solu lution from your sump tank direct onto these tailings. This cyanide so lution percolates through the tailings, filters through the filter cloth, then passes through the precipitation boxes and into the sump tank again. During the process the cyanide solution be comes weaker and the easiest way to bring It up to the proper strength again is to throw solid syanido on top of the tailings and let the syanide so lution dissolve it. 'Coming hack to the smalt operator who crushes 20 tons per day, he would aieed three lejiching tanks 18 feet in diameter nnd about 6 feet high. Lach of these tnnks will hold about 60 tons of tailings, so that it would take nbout three days to fill a tank, Allowing for 15 tons of slimes to be Impounded for future trentment. It will take six days to fill the other two tanks. It will, therefore he six days before you need the first tank again, which will give you sufficient time to get good ex traction. These lonching tanks cost about $260 complete in San Francisco, at the present time, or a total of $780. A precipitation box of ample capac ity will cost about $135 and a dis tributor costs nbout ftifi. The sump tnnk will come about $120. In ad dition you need a small centrifugal pump, a one Inch pump is sufficient. driven by a three horse power motor or gasoline engine. The total cost of tanks and machinery for such a plant would be about $1200. To convey the solution from leaching tanks to zinc boxes, from the zinc boxes to sump tnnk, nnd sumpj tank through the pump and to the leaching tanks will rehuire pipe nnd fittings. One inch pipe is quite big enough for this pur pose. To start operating you need nbout 150 pounds of zinc shavings, the pres ent price of which Is nbout 16 cents per pound. Also about 200 pounds of eynnido which will cost nbout 26 cents per pound. The clenn up is a, very simple mat ter. It requires no machinery of any kind. All thnt is needed are a couple of galvanized tubs, a whisk broom and a scoop. A melting furnace can be made on the ground out of an oil oil drum and nil you need to buy for it is a gasoline burner nnd a pressure lank. This will cost npproximately $25. As far ns operation Is concerned, nil you need to know Is now to test the strength of your solution. This is done by a simple chemical pro cess which any competent nssayer can teach you in a few minutes. The whole equipment required for this purpose should not cost more than $5.00. It does not require high priced carpenters to put up these tanks. Any handy man can do it himself, by following the instructions the tank companies will furnish you. The simplest way in which to dis charge these tanks is to sluice them out after trentment. This, of course, requires a good den I of water. If you do not have enough water, the tnnks have to he mucked out Into cars and the tailings put over the dump. Mining Topics.

The bureau is informed thai there Is more genuine interest in Portland in the development aC the mineral resources of southwestern Oregon than has existed for twenty years. This is largely due to the consistent publicity campaign carried on thru the Daily r.ccord Abstract, the Port land business man's paper, and thru mining journals nn the Pacific coast. The August 12th Issue of the Chris tian Science .Monitor, published nt Boston and circulated over the en tire continent, rallied nearly a half column of black sand news from this district. .Mining Truth and Salt Lake Mining Review, each published the mining news of the district in their midmonth issues, nnd In addition -Mining Truth cnrrled a black sand article of considerable length.
