How often have we been told that when we call on the business folk about Prince Rupert lo offer our facilities to help them Increase their business! When times are quiet is the time to ad-vertlse not wnen you are so rushed with business that you cannot handle It all. ., f If you are not satisfied with the business .you are doing now, why not tell the people through the newspaper some of the things you have to offer and have them come down and buy? Why hide your light behind a bushel and. by your silence, Intimate that you have nothing to offer or do not need business? Any time you arc forced to admit that business is too quiet to advertise, you' are admitting that you do not want any business. If that Is the way things are with you today, why not close up altogether and make a real saving? But if you want to stay open and increase your business, why not do something about It? Why not Increase jour business by reaching the people through the proven channel of the newspaper? m I me grains 01 goia 10 tne Wn.

These calculations were' found to be too optimistic. To evaporate a cubic mile; of sea water would mean evaporation of the water in 200 shallow tanks, 500 feet square by 5 feet deep twiee a day for the 300 worfcins days of the year. This should deposit 161.-000,000 tons of salt from which hv some means there might be taken tons of gold worth $1,680,000.

On the strength of this a comnanv was floated and preparations made o to operate on a large scale. Then' 5 it was found that the expert-1 g menters had failed to analyse the'g pyrites before experimenting and 8 the result was that it was found g to contain 7i grains of gold prior' g to the experiment, so the plants failed. jg The Dow Chemical Company onjg the Atlantic seaboard of the Unl-'o ted States has now In operation !g a large plant for the commercial -g recovery of bromine from sea a water but, despite the favorable g opportunity presented for attempts to recover gold, it was shown to be , g uneconomical when a couple of years aso a small button of gold was actually produced at a cost of about one hundred times Us gold value.
