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 specitic effect of each. The success of Grossmannl in calculating hardenability from chemical composition by means of factors suggested such a

To keep shovels working to capacity in the smaller and more scattered ore bodies necessitated the development of a mobile jumbo drill rig, utilizing the V-cut round drilled to a template. The paper shows the steps taken, and the difficulties encountered in accomplishing an increase of 38 pct in tons per drill shift over the method previously used, with probability of more efficient operation to come.

IN an effort to obtain a better understanding of sintering in the presence of a liquid phase, it was decided to study the rate of capillary rise of a relatively low melting liquid metal in a higher melting metal powder compact. By assuming that the metal powder compact consists of a great number of parallel capillary tubes and that the flow of liquid

Based on the technical features of the Feng- huang-shan concentrator, the authors have designed a new scheme for optimal search and self-adaptive control in flotation process, in order to apply computer control to the concentrator. Hence, a plant test of optimal control in bulk flotation of copper and iron sulfides was successfully carried out. The control parameters are xanthate addition, pulp level, and amount of aeration, etc., in flotation cells. Two mathematical models of multiple parameters established by the authors were adapted and flotation efficiency was used as an objective function in the control.

At the meeting of the Board of Directors, and of the Council of the American Institute of Mining Engineers, February 21, 1911, Dr. R. W. Raymond asked for the appointment of a joint commit¬tee to receive and consider a communication (which was duly sent by him under date of March 16) tendering his resignation as Member and Secretary of each body. On March 31, the Board of Directors and the Council accepted the resignation of Dr. Raymond, and on the recommendation of the Council, the Board authorized and directed his appointment as Secretary Emeritus, upon whom the Council may call for special editorial and other services in connection with the publications of the Institute.

The volumes of Transactions, which are published annually, contain the list of officers, rules, etc., the Proceedings, and the papers revised for final publication. (In this revision, after the prelimi¬nary publication, authors are permitted to use the largest liberty ; and the changes and additions made in papers are sometimes important. It should be borne in mind by those who study or quote a paper in the preliminary edition, that they may not have in that form the ultimate and deliberate expression of the author's views. It should be added, however, that in the majority of cases there are no important changes.) These volumes are for sale as follows, in paper covers:

This review covers that portion of the area between the Llano mountains and the Red River which lies between Fort Worth and Abilene. The counties and fields included are listed in Tables 1 and 2. During 1929 there was a marked lull in both prospecting and development in this part of Texas. Archer, Coleman, Cooke, Wilbarger and Young were the counties most active. The total gross production of the year was 52,611,000 bbl., 3 per cent. more than for 1928. The production of the Coleman, Cooke-
