There la Just one thing that TJntic has needed for many yearn and that la extensive milling plants for the treatment of the lower grade ores! and In a measure thia difficulty has been remedied by tha successful operation of the Urge mill at Silver City. During the past week' the Tintic Mill shipped a carload of bullion which la expected to bring the company netuwtufna of AlSS.OOO, This conalgnmeVt contained but twenty-nlOton a bit thyr bullion carried ailver copper than the last-CashlmaenU and consequently la worthjl much larger sum than any shipqnt of bullion which over left the local mill. The vioua shipment of bullion waa sent in December and this out meana that the 1115,000 consignment represents about six weeks work at tha mill. Theodore P. Holt, who la in charge of the milling plant, says ample ore la being secured from the Tintic mines to keep the mill operating close tolta capacity. Much of this ora. is coming from tha Knight properties and other mines which arelocated in. the south end of the diatrlct, but recently the Chief Cons. company has been sending the plant considerable low grade ailver ora. thaft than T,nti(J prepertie. other East .haft has br ,hlthe W understood that the North: Standard Mining company's officers are now getting things ' readiness Prominent Tintic Mining Man main ahaP. for resuming work of 600 feet!
