Vow comes a man who introduces a
*yst«'m of thawing so simple as to be
amazing in its mere simplicty. He
found in short, that steam and super
heated steam, being so volatile, had
the tendency to escape back to the air,
thu; proving but partially effective.
Hot water was of little value. But
the simple old cold water, which was
running to waste everywhere through
mt the broad Vortbland. was found
to contain many units of heat which
annually has gone to waste right und
er the eyes of the miner and he did
not see it. The detection of this im- '
mease heat lvserve promises to bo the
salvation of gold mining in the North
land.
