of artesian water are meeting with
success. There are so artesian wells
in the vicinity Of St. Davids. And in
other places in both southern and
northern Arizona, enough artesian
wells are now spouting forth their
streams of pure sweet water to prove
artesian wells not only possibility in
Arizona but also spouting reality

THREE-CENr COPPER COST

The famous Arizona copper mine
owned by w. A CLARK, under the
style United Verde Copper Company,
has long been regarde1 as the cheapest
producer of copper in the world, and
this reputation ie abundantly sustained
by the figures recently published con
corning its operations last year. It's
output was 43.290,590 pounds Of
blister copper. The receipts from
copper are put at $5,775,62l; this
means an average of 1873 cents per
pound received for its copper during
the year. The operating expenses OF
the mine are put down as $2,660, ,346,
with construction charges included, or
81 1859, 236 otherwise. The gold and
silver values obtained in the course OF
mining for copper amounted to $59S, :
538, which can fairly be credited tc
operating expenses. Doing this and
excluding construction expenditures
from the operating expenses, we have
a net cost of 81 ,26O, ,688, or three cents
a pound. This is far and away the
10 vest production cost in the world.
Most of the Lake Superior costs, fol
example, are eight cents or there
abouts.-Ex.
