\nDear Sir,
\nI understand you have a plant in New Mexico, on the Ortiz grant, to work dry placers. Would you please inform me if it is a success and if so what terms it could be secured to work such placers in old Mexico, and what a plant of 10,000 cubic yards daily capacity cost f/o/b/at factory, and also what you consider the average cost of working the gravel per cubic yard to be.
\nYours very respectfully,
\nCA Baker.
