HALIFAX, N. S. Dec. 29, (/P)—
Sixty modern scallop draggers re
presenting an outlay of more than
$250,000 are operating In the Bay
of Fundy scallop fishery this win
ter.
Five years ago there was but one
small boat dragging for these shell
I fish in Digby Basin. Today, every
port in Digby and Annapolis coun
ties is represented at the bed's.
American markets are paying $6
a gallon, the highest price in three
years. The search for new beds
is constant and the scallop has
taken a foremost place in the fish
eries of western NoNva Scotia.
Excellent line of Columbia

“T^ioc: from the Hills”, by Dean
; pattv of the Alaska College, which
. began in yesterday’s issue, contin
r ups a" follows:
Larry continued: “It is mv idea
that a prosnector should confine all
1 of his work to mineralized areas
! and not spend his valuable sum
.'ier Phasing rainbows in districts
luarren of promising mineralization.
Orp oid RiH Drumlin for example:
he has spent the best part of 10
years in the Bald Mountain country, j
I ha- e been thru that country and
to » looks like t,be hungriest
couni ”v. from a mineral standpoint,
that I’ve seen in Alaska. Bill con
tinues to prospect there because the
general topography of the hills re
sembles his old stamping ground
about Silverton,, Colorado.
“Ninety percent of Alaska, or any ,
other country, is barren of commet - j
’1?-1 mineralization. The mineralized
districts are isolated pin point
-peaks spaced over a map—like an
occasional island in the sea. It is I
no to the prospector, as I see it. to
locate these mineralized patches
and then concentrate their energy
there. It simply means this: to
make a rich mining district you
have to get an unusual set of geo
logic events which cause the min
eralizaiion from the igneous mag
mas, which the geologists talk
about, to be concentrated into a
limited area.
|
“Take Butte, Montana for exam
pin: they call Butte the richest hill
in the world. That hill is simpiy
! aced thru and thru with a net work
of strongly mineralized veins. There
as a mineralized country for you.
Ail of that ore didn’t come directly
; from the igneous intrusion which
makes up the hill. The big intru
sion which underlies that country
for hundreds of miles has been
gleaned of metals and while the
intrusion was still in a molten state
some set of conditions caused the
ore minerals for miles around to be
forced into Butte Hill. Such inten
sive banding or ore into one corral
does not happen often and that is
the reason we have so few camps
lme Butte. More often, the miner
alization is divided between three
or four centers of mineralization
and then we find three or four min
ing districts spaced 50 to 100 miles
apart and the country between
these districts robbed of its miner
alization. It is something like this
Jack: if you are in town and a big
fire breaks out every one naturally
rushes to the fire and crowds
around there. If at this time you
would prospect the other section of
town you would find them well de
parted with only an occasional stay
at-home to be found.
p'hep T remember the Republic
gold camp in the northeastern
corner of the State of Washington,
which has produced several million
dollars and has a good life still
-ihead if it. You could lay a blan
ket five miles long by one-half mile ,
wide and cover up all the mines in j
lie camp Outside of that smali
'-ectangle I couldn’t find a prospect i
worth wasting a box of powder on.
“The producting area of Tono
pah, Ncv., can be included in a strip
of country one mile wide by two
[miles long.
j “The mother lode district of Cali
fornia is more like the gold belt
jthat trends along the coast of
|Southeastern Alaska. The miner
jalized belt on the mother lode is
'about a mile wide but-it contains a
series of closely spaced veins out
cropping at intervals for a length
of 100 miles. Several of the strong
est veins have been developed for
'more than a mile along their
