| Il WILLIAM ST, NEW YORK.
To My FRIENDS:
Two years ago you bought the stock
of the Greene Consolidated Copper
Company ON my endorsement-those
OF you who got in soon enough at
s. share. 1t IS no selling at $50 a
share, and you find you have made a
fairly profitable Investment.
now endorse the stock Of the George
A. Tread well Mining Company even
more decidedly than did the Greene
stock, and think enough OF the enter
prise to allow the company to bear my
name. II the is only enterprise in the
world to which | have ever given or
shall ever give that privilege.
You can now sell your Greene stock
aud buy -four shares of the Treadwell
stock with the proceeds of one share of
Greene.
advise YOU to do so for tho follow
ing reasons:
I. The Greet ne company is capitaliz
ed at six million dollars; the Tread well
company at only three millions. The
four shares of the Tread we'll that you
can get for one of the Greene repre-
sent, therefore, eight times the proper
tional interest In the company that the
Greene stock represents.
?, The property of the Tread well
company Is at least the equivalent in
area and in probable extent OF ore bod
les OF the Greene property.
B. The ores of the Verde Copper
Belt where the Treadwell company
mines are situated have nearly or
quite twice the percentage OF copper
that the mines OF the Cananeas-Where
the Greene property-lies have. The
Verde Belt ore averages ten per cent
copper and tho Cananea about five per
cent.
4. Tho ores Of the Cananeas have low
and those Of she Verde Belt high val
ues in gold aud silver. With low
priced copper this consideration Is Of
the utmost Importance.
o. The Verde District has a very
District in its accessibility, its eompar-
alive nearness to market and its freight
rates.
G. The Verde District has whatever
further advantage results to it from
being ia the United States. and under
the jurisdiction of the Stars and
Stripes.
I. The Greene Gonsolid a4ea Compa
ny has more extensive and expensive
equipmentthan that Of the Treadwell
company, although that OF the Tread
wcll company Is by no means small and
is constantly increasing-but it has also
large indebtedness incurred IN pro-
curing this equipment. The Tread well
company IS free from debt AID pays It's
way as q goes It may seem to go
slower, but | thiuk it will get there just
as soon. / would rather have small
er equipment than owe SO much for A
larger one
5. All things considered, l pelAeVe
that the stock OF the George a Tread
well Mining Company is quite as good
and safe an Investment at $3.50 share
now as the Greene stock was when 1t
originally sold for S. a share.
GEORGE A. TREADwELL.
