COCO GROVE, INC. Gold production at Coco Grove during November amounted to P105,000.83, from the handling of 335,965 cubic yards of gravel. This showed an increase over the previous month, and would have been better had it not been for time lost making repairs on one of the dredges. The second dredge however made good running time. The dredge "Mary Angus" dredged 155,765 cubic yards, from which P52,536.87 was recovered. The area dredged was 71,045 square feet, to an average depth of 59.2 feet. The dredge "Anne Petronella" handled 180,200 cubic yards of gravel, from which P52,463.96 was recovered. ALLYOU NEED TO SAY FOa THE BEST WHISKY The area dredged was 79,120 square feet, to an average depth of 61.5 feet. Water conditions in the pond of dredge "Anne Petronella" which is completely land-locked, have been greatly improved by connecting the pond of both dredges by a water supply channel. Weather conditions during November were unfavourable, with heavy northeast blowing all through the month. The rainfall was heavy, and a number of typhoons crossed the archipelago in the vicinity of the property. There was no material damage, however, to the dredges or land equipment.
