ager, and he proposes to make the
properties of the company become
identified as wealth producers before
the end of the year 1910.
Mr. Calderwood is not only q we'll
known mining man, but he occupies a
good position in social circles of the
city. He is a Native Son. being an
official of the order, and is an active
member of the B. p. o. Elks, mem-
ber of No. SO, who takes leading part
in the fraternal and social pleasures
and duties of the lodge. He is in the
mining business because it offers the
energetic worker a splendid future, and
as he is familiar with the many details
of practical mining he has bright pros
poets ahead in the mineral fields of the
state of Sonora, said to be the richest
and most productive mining section OF
Mexico
Mr.. Calderwood, in speaking Of the
opportunities offered in mining invest
ments in Mexico, says:
1.-THE opportunities are brighter today
than ever before. Hundreds of Amer
lean operators are becoming owners of
valuable claims and mining properties
in Mexico because of the vast oppor-
tunities for creating wealth. The most
profitable mines in that country today
are owned and controlled by American
capital, and the new railroads now
building mean that hundreds of good
claims will be opened up and developed
into mines. Mexico is today the richest
mineral producing country in the world,
and the state of Sonora is noted for it's
famous producing mines, and while the
Creston de Cobre is yet in its infant
clothes it is a property that will yet
become identified with the big mines OF
Mexico. | think that Mexico offers
better chance to make large and legit-
innate profits In mining than does Cali
fornia, Nevada, Arizona or other Sec
tions. Mexico is today the mining in
vestors' paradise, because there the
small investor has an opportunity of
getting in on the ground floor, where
he can aid in the substantial develop
ment of the rich mineral properties.
For this reason 1 would naturally adj
wise those interested to investigate the
Creston de Cobre offerings in the rich
Hermosillo district. Mexico is the
country for the ground-floor operator
the small investor-because he can now
join hands with the Mexico Mining,
Refining and Exploration company of
Los Angeles and become interested in
the active development of the Creston
de Cobre mine, near Hermosillo, in a
rich mining district, where the oppor-
tunities are splendid.
In this section failures are practical

the Spaniards, mounting shaft machin-
cry and modern mills suitable to ore
conditions mining is in Sonora a math-
ematical certainty. This is the plan
of the Mexico Mining, Refining and
Exploration company, who own valu-
able properties. Mexico and the rich
Hermosillo district, in which the Cres-
ton de Cobre mine Is located, and an
investment in the shares of this COM
pany offer exceptional advantages to
the investor. The mines are to be de-
veloped along substantial lines under
the personal direction and general
management of the president of the
company, who is familiar with the
mining conditions of that section. 1t
is desired by the company to interest
as many people as possible in the stock
of the Creston de Cobre mine, rather
than sell to a chosen few. In fact,
many safeguards are thrown around
the investment for the protection of
the small shareholder"
At the offices of the Mexico Mining,
Refining and Exploration company, in
the l. w. Hellman building, maps,
scenic views and full descriptions of
this splendid section of Sonora and Of
the Creston de Cobre properties are
shown; this is an opportunity that is
not presented often and will bear the
most rigid investigation.
