MAKING GOOD PROGRESS
The Mayo district is making pro
gress rapidly and steadiiy, Mr. Set
i tiemeier said. Considerate head
iway has been made in development
programs affecting old discoveries,
two or three new rich strikes have
been made and the production of
ore was heavier this year than ever
before.
Two-thirds of the 8,300 ton"
j shipped this year was concentrates,
averagng between $300 and $800 par
| ton, and the rest was raw ore that
{averaged about $200 per ton.
| Next year it is expected that'
product will reach 10.000 tons. I |
it is desired, and cond tions are
| favorable, it is estimated that the I
tonnage can be raised to 20,000 ton- j
in 1931, Mr. Settlemeier snd.

SHANGHAI, Dec., 30, (/P)—Many
perrons have been frozen to death
in Peking recently, 21 bodies being
picked up in the city streets. North
and central China are being swept |
by sharp rain and snow storms
after having had many months of
sub-normal rainfall and unusually
warm temperatures.
Shanghai has experienced a week j
of heavy rainfall. A heavy snow |
storm in Nanking has blocked the
streets, telephone and telegraph
systems and lighting plants services
have been seriously impared and
much suffering has resulted.

A clean throat
takes care of itself
Avoid sore, husky throats by
the use of Wrteiev’s. It’s
antiseptic action stimulates
the flow of natural juices in
the mouth. Thus the throat
is gently but effectively
cleaned and kept healthy.
