IN order to isolate the effect of an element on some property of an alloy, the effect of the other alloying elements must be elimi- [ ] nated, either by reducing their quantity to the extent that they may be neglected or by determining the specific effect of each. The success of Grossmann1 in calculating [ ] hardenability from chemical composition by means of factors suggested such a

WHEN geologists began probing the grayish rock mass, natives of Adams County, Pa., called soapstone, they were paid scant attention. However, the soapstone, at first misidentified as pyrophyllite, was in reality sericite schist, a hydrous aluminum silicate whose chemical analysis resembles pyrophyllite, except that it has a slightly higher iron and potash content. In addition to its grayish color, sericite schist is foliated and has a greasy feeling much like that of talc.

The need for studying brittle fracture is defined; the main elements of this type of failure are explained; and the mechanism at crack initiation is outlined. Various design and maintenance practices which can preclude costly downtime caused by unexplained machine failures are proposed.

A roof bolting theory and structural model are presented which explain the success of most roof bolting installations as the creation of a competent roof bolt reinforced rock arch within the immediate roof rock overlying an underground opening. Likewise, the failure of some bolted mine roofs can be explained as a failure to create a structually competent rock arch by roof bolting.

The 1938 production for all of Rumania amounted to 48.984.200 bbl., as compared with 53.239.500 bbl. in 1937. which represents a drop of 4.255.300 bbl., or 8 per cent. Of the various fields. there are only two major increases in production—Baicoi-Tintea with 3.092.400 bbl. And

An exploring-drift, on the bottom level of the Curry mine, at Norway, Mich., on the Menominee range, cut a stream of water, which increased considerably the expense of pumping. The hope that the supply would drain off was not realized. It was decided to build a dam in the exploring-drift, as it was estimated that the cost would be recovered by the saving in fuel in less than two months.

Application of continuous filtration to precipitate dewatering requires not only careful equipment selection, choice of appropriate media, but also close control of precipitation technique itself.

The Committee appointed by your Board of Directors to nominate Officers for the Institute for the year 1915 invites the participation of all members in the nominations. The suggestion of names for the various offices will be appreciated and given full consideration when making the selection of candidates which this Committee will recommend. The officers to be elected at the annual meeting in February, 1915, are: One officer, known as Director and President. Two officers, known as Director and Vice-President. Five officers, known as Director. The attention of members is called to Articles V and VII of the Constitution, and to By-Law XIII, which reads as follows:

There is no South African code for the design of reinforced concrete headframes, and all those erected have been designed on a uniform basis which, up to the present, has tended to be conservative. With certain exceptions designs have generally conformed with British Standard Code of Practice C.P. 114. In the design of reinforced concrete headframes the following loads are taken into account:

The use and effectiveness of sealants in under-ground mines is a recognized and well accepted practice by many people in the mining industry. Their use however in many cases is to correct, or attempt to correct, problems that might have been avoided with sealant use in the early stages of development, and continued thereafter.

The first and most lasting impression made upon the mind of him who examines a mine or a mining district consists in the observation that in each and every case there is an intimate association of the ores with the eruptive rocks in the dietrict. The mines in the Mississippi valley seem to be the only excep-

IT is clearly of great metallurgical interest to know the conditions of temperature and gas composition under which different products will form in sulphide roasting. A method of graphically presenting the relevant thermodynamic data will be demonstrated, such that these conditions are readily obtainable. The products of sulphide roasting may be oxide, sulphate, or oxysulphates, and the equilibria between these may be represented in the following way: 2 MSO4 = MOMSO4 + SO3 MO-MSO4 = 2 MO + SO3

WHEREAS it is generally assumed that the highest temperature at which temper brittle-ness takes place is about 625°C, 1,2,3 Jaffe, Buffum, and coworkers have referred in several recent papers45,6,7 to the occurrence of temper brittleness in an SAE 3140 steel at 650" and 675°C. Their re- sults show that a considerable increase in transition
