The Nevada Douglas Copper company
is pushing development work at its mines
at Yeringron, New, with full head of
steam and is in the market today with
four cars of ore which average from Is
to los per cent copper.
These are some of the things that
count, :" remarked Manager Walter c.
Orem today, who has just returned
from trip of inspection accompanied
by his father, A. ], Orem. When you
ask me to tell you how things are nov
ing at the Nevada Douglas, that is about
the best way l can put it. Nevada
Douglas is responding splendidly. The
main tunnel is forging ahead by the use
of machine drills at rapid pace and
the east drift from it has been in ore for
the past 20 feet which averages from s
to per cent copper,
'In the Ludwig section we are show
ing up lots of ore. ON the $50 level,
we are still driving ahead in clalcocite
copper ore carrying almost phenominal
values. We will have a carload OF II in
the market in few days, and according
to the mine assays furnished me by
Superintendent Arentz, it should return
about 35 per cent copper.
ION the 500 level new shoot of ore
has been recently opened; for so feet it
has been followed along its strike and is
showing up mighty well. 1t is 10 feet
wide and runs better than III per cent
copper All the ground between the 4OO
and 500 levels is virgin territory; hence
we ought to produce an immense ton
mage from this shoot alone

CAMP OF YERINCTON IN GOOD SHAPE
The Orems of the NevadaDougass Find That the Srngency
Of the Money Market Has Not Affected This Camp

I'VE have mapped out a very vigorous
campaign at the Nevada Douglas mine, :"
continued Mr.. Orem, "btt development
for the present will be confined largely
to the driving of the deep tunnel and in
the exploitation of the sos, $50 and $50
levels of the Ludwig and also in sinking
the incline in the latter.
The past year S development with the
aid of this modern equipment we have
installed" Mr. Orem went on. has
placed us in position to develop tonnage
very rapidly in the drifts from the deep
tunnel in the Douglas, as we'll as in the
incline and on the $50 and $50 levels of
the Ludwig.
One of the remarkable things about
the Ludwig mine, Mr.. Orem says. is that
the large amount of leached gossan ma
terial outcropping at the surface to a
width of from 90 to rs feet, is changing
to unleached ore on the lower levels.
This fact is particularly in evidence OH
the $50 level, where two shoots one
known as the honging-wall shoot, the
other the foot-wall shoot t-have been de-
veloped. The combined width of the
two is about 40 feet and the ore runs
from IL to Is per cent copper.
The camp in general is in good shape
and is not feeling the effects of the gem
eral money stringency as much as some
others in Nevada
| During the past week some rich speci-
men ore has been taken out of the Lud.
wig; some of the pieces assaying from
| 90 to so per cent copper. Deseret News

BOSTON, April 6.-John Bruce McPher-
son, secretary Of the National Associa-
ton Of Wool Manufacturers, which has
its headquarters in Bo9ton, has just is
sued the annual wool review of the United
States and sheep census for 1905. This
is the eighteenth consecutive year in
which the association has issued statis-
tics on the wool industry of the country.
These statistics have become the author
ity for everyone connected with the wool
industry and are accepted by the United
States government as authority, espe-
cially the census of sheep.
For the year 1906 the number of sheep
fit for shearing is placed at $3.50, 79I
as compared with 3S.621.476 the proceed
ing year. Decreases were found in soma
of the larger grazing states, owing to
larger shipments than usual the previous
fall, while in some of the middle western
states the number increased because OF
the development of the industry and be-
cause of more accurate information Sc
cured. Prices were high for all kinds OF
sheep stock and full advantage was taken
of them
Contracting for the 1906 clip was not
so general far ahead as in 1905, expert
ence of that year making, growers more
wary of entering into binding obligations
This was especially true of Montana
Buyers pursued a waiting policy. This
deliberate method was not exceptional to
this country; it was pursued early In
the Australian sales and later at the Lon
don auctions by American buyers. That
higher prices were not paid tho grower
was due to the feeling that the danger
point in prices had been reached and that
It would be hazardous TO accede to the
growers views Of values.
Heavier Clip for the Year.
Owing to the greater weight of the aver
age fleece the clip, despite the small In
crease in numbers, was heavier in the
grease by 3,426,692 pounds than that of
the year before. The total average in
crease was one-tenth of a pound per
fleece. The quantity OF wool produced
on the basis Of 3S.54O,79s sheep was $780,
915,130 pounds, not including pulled
WOOL as against 253,4sS,43S pounds the
year before. Its equivalent in secured

wool was 1OO01O,942 pounds. Pulled
wool was not considered to vary from
the previous year-42, 900, 900 pounds. The
shrinkage of this was 80 per cent. in
stead Of 33 per cent year before, maxi
ing the new yield 2s,4OO.OOo pounds clean
wool.
Total production for the country. there
fore, during 1905 was 29S,915,1SO pounds,
equal to 129,41O,942 pounds of secured
wool, 2,ss3,S21 pounds in excess of the
estimate for 1905. Part Of this excess
was due to decreased shrinkage, The
average weight of a fleece was $3.50
pounds, against 656 pounds in 1905. $50
pounds in 1904 and 6.25 pounds in 1908.
In fact the shrinkage has been decreas-
ing for some years. Percentage of the
average shrinkage was CLOS as COM
pared with e1.S in 1905 and GIG in 1904.
The total value of the clip for the year
was about the same as the previous year,
being less than l per cent smaller, /. e.,
s79,721,3s3, compared with SS0415,o14.
The average value per pound Of fleece and
pulled wool decreased "a and 5.5 per
pound respectively.
Montana Leads Again.
Montana leads as heretofore, with the
largest flock. 100000 These produced 35,-
$4,000 pounds of wool, washed and I'M
washed, valued at $s,523970 Montana
feeces averaged rs pounds each, shrink
ing IS per cent, making the secured WOO
product equal 125S5,250 pounds. The
average price obtained per pound was 6S
cents, against 50 cents the year before
and So cents two years before.
Wyoming Is second for size Of flock and
wool production. She has 4,581OOO sheep
which produced 100 pounds of rough
wool, shrinking 68 per cent TO 10,511,9O OF
the secured. This brought S7,25S,225, or 6
cents a pound, against 20 cents the pre-
vious year and s. cents in 1904 Fleeces
averaged 7.25 pounds each.
New Mexico comes third in the list Of
Hocks, with 100000 Their fieeces were
lighter. averaging So pounds EACH the
total clip being 19, 100000 pounds, shrinkinl
GO per cent to 6,061, 900 secured which
brought S3S1S,4SO. or So cents per pound
This was cents less than the year be-
fore, but 10 cents higher than the aver
age price in 1904.
Fourth state is Idaho. with 2.3OO, OOC
in her flock, producing for the year 49,
500, 900 pounds OF raw wool, shrinking G.
per cent to 5,57S,6 $50 pounds secured, valued
at 50 6S1 900, or &C cents per pound, agains
50 and IS cents in 1905 and 1904 respectively
F1eeces averaged 735 pounds each.
Utah stands next, with 100000 in heI
flock, their clip totaling 13,S50,OOO pounds
rough, or 800 pounds secured, the
shrinkage of the 6.5 pound fieeces averag-
ing 65 per cent The clip brought $685..
O75 to the state, or 81 cents per pound as
compared with 60 cents in 1904, the price
