In Washington a simple compact machine by Professor Elmer Gates promises to greatly boost gold output. It removes magnetite from gold bearing sands before separation, enabling hand or motor operation. Belief in vast profits spreads among mine owners, with hundreds of thousands invested and hopes to convert many nonpaying western deposits.
A compact copper drum with an internal electromagnet removes every particle of magnetite from moist sand at up to 10 tons daily. The nonmagnetic sand and gold fall away while magnetite is collected in a separate receptacle, enabling efficient gold recovery without drying.
Present day chair styles favor reproductions of colonial patterns with less wood. Chairs now use lighter backs and narrower frames after years of heavy paneled backs and wide wooden seat frames. The shift reflects a move toward simpler, more streamlined designs in home dining furniture.
A lengthy piece discusses dining room chair trends, materials, and finishes, noting golden oak and Flemish oak, leather upholstery, and chair dimensions. It blends houseware commentary with humorous asides about a corn shredder incident and rural life, then shifts to farm institutes, emphasizing female participation, concise papers, timed speeches, and community support.
The article details seasonal table decor with wide lace borders, damask fabrics, and matching doilies. It notes a shift from table runners to lace or embroidery, prefers heavy guip inserts, pink and blue sashes, and gold monograms on glassware. It praises cabochon glass and art nouveau influences, with low table decorations and electric light bulbs in stands.
Instructions describe preparing deviled turkey bones by selecting leg back and wing bones, scoring them, buttering, coating with mustard, dusting with cayenne or pepper, broiling, and serving hot as a spicy supper option.
A fragmentary verse by Geltett Burgess on color texture and art materials. The piece mentions denim burlap fish nets curtains and charring hues around matting. It hints at making an art couch for visitors to slouch dust and notes the Turkiai effect as cheap to obtain with old junk pillow trunk and a hidden sleep space.
The best growing conditions come from nature in undisturbed forests. Ground is shaded and mulched each fall with fallen foliage. Moisture is conserved, surface soil stays mellow and rich from decaying vegetation, guiding efforts to replicate these conditions for shade trees and orchards.
