Received in the mail recently
was a pamphlet cf The C. & D.
Mining Co., pertaining to the sell
ing of stock in that company for
the purpose of digging the sanda
of the beach jit Notne.
The company has developed what
|they call a dredging bucket. The
affair is mounted on a caterpillar
tread and resembles a drag-line
bucket. According to the plan il
lustrated in the pamphlet, two con
crete bases are to be sunk on the
Boor of the ocean and cables at
tached between them, running to a
steam winch erected on shore. The
affair is basioly a drag-line outfit,
with the exception that the cat
erpillar tread prevents the bucket
from becoming mirpd down in the
sand. Following is an excerpt as
to the methods of advertising their
product: , .. ii " -
