I have no hesitation in saying that the favorable condi- tions revealed in the property warrant the extension of work as herein indicated. While it is impossible to state, with assurance that such extension of work will surely open up great ore bodies (as already set forth the property is to be considered a prospect and not as a mine) the conditions are generally favorable for ore development. I regard the Dagmar property as one of value and its thorough exploitation as a good business undertaking. The Dagmar property, in its present stage of development, is to be regarded as a prospect rather than a mine. However, it is most assuredly a promising prospect and offers strong inducements in favor of persistent and resolute mining. The structural features on the lower levels reached are such as to indicate the possibility of ore occurences, and the highly mineralized condition of the limestone on these lower levels sustains the belief in developments of value but little beyond the present limits of the workings. If you have a small surplus that can be spared for a legitimate business purpose and you are satisfied with the conditions, take a chance. The chances for large profits in mining are always in properties of undetermined value mid not in mines with values known and determined. The shaft is down 300 feet in highly mineralized formation and the property is well equipped and ready for a continuation of the development campaign. W. J. ADAMS, President JAS. T.
