being sufficient for this addition. The ore to be milled will be taken from the Kellner lode where a six-foot vein of ore carrying $25 gold to the ton will furnish the initial milling tonnages.
 When necessary, the Badger vein, al so partly developed and proven to carry workable ore, will be exploited, but this necessity is not expected to occur for some time, as the Kellner lode is be- lieved to be of sufficient extent to main tain the mill supply at the required amount for considerable length of time.
 The mill is certainly much better equipped for efficient work than the mill formerly operated at that property, and should prove to be successful venture in the treatment of the valuable deposit of ore. A small force of men is steadily employed in construction and develop ment work

MIAMI MAKES GOOD SPEED IN ORE
 BLOCKING
Fine Working Organization Making Good Headway on
 Surface Work

The force of approximately 600 men employed by the Miami Copper com pany is advancing the underground and and construction work at a remarkably rapid rate. The advances in evidence there from week to week are surpris- ing. The results obtained by the well regulated working system of this com pany are nothing short of phenomenal. On the 22O, 245, 27O, 295, 345 and the 97O-foot levels, 950 feet of drifting and .erosscutting and raising was completed during the month of February. Above the 370-foot level, the sub-levels are 25 feet apart and the ore is being cut into blocks, the dimensions of which are fifty feet by fifty feet by twenty five feet The levels so far established at greater depth than 370 feet are re- spectively 420, 47O and 570 feet from the surface. Shaft No. 1, through which all ore will be removed in the future, has been sunk to a depth of 546 feet in conglomerate formation. Sinking is progressing at the rate of about 9 feet weekly.

INSPIRATION DOING GREAT AMOUNT
 EXPLORING
Ore Averaging 3 Per Cent Is Prevalent in Majority of
 Present Workings

Five drifts and one raise are being driven to block out the ore body and explore new areas on the 400-foot level of the Joe Bush shaft of the lnspira~ tion Copper company's property, located in the Miami mining district. Ore av- eraging nearly per cent copper pre- yaiis throughout these workings, which aggregate 2,400 feet.
 Near the Joe Bush shaft a small plant will soon be erected to make tests of concentration on the low grade sulphlde ore developed on the Inspiration prop erty. Every minor test made of this ore so far indicates that the ratio of concentration will be as favorable as that of any low grade mine in Arizona. Dripping Springs wash, on the Gila river, is being considered as possible location of a c0ncentrator to reduce the ore from the Inspiration mine. This site is regarded as being very practicable for a mill but as yet nothing definite concerning this matter has been deter mined.
 The adit being driven from the Key stone gulch toward the Joe Bush shaft, for the purpose of mining Inspiration ore, is nearly 100 feet long. The in stallation of the ten-drill air comDres- sor now on the ground at the portal of this adit tunnel, should be completed within two weeks, and should greatly facilitate the work of extending the tunnel.
 At the Scorpion shaft, located 2,400 feet northwest of the Joe Bush shaft, the crosscut driven southward on the 275foot level is 270 feet long and for the past 150 feet has been in ore run ming nearly per cent copper. The two churn drill holes now being sunk, one northwest and one southwest of the Joe Bush shaft, are 4S0 and 490 feet deep respectively. From depth of 220 feet, where sulphide ore was first eneOunterde these drill holes have been sinking con tinuously through ore of good conner cial grade, About 160 men are em. ployed by the Inspiration Copper com, pany.

New Mill and Equipment Tn stalled Sufficient to
 Handle Capacity

The construction of Q ten.stamp mill, equipped with two Wilaey tables, two Frue vanners and one Pierce amalga- mator for the concentration of the tail ings has been completed at the property of the Lost Gulch United Mines com pany, and milling of the ore body will begin within short time. New nor tar blocks are being put in, to replace the ones originally used.
 This, however, will require only few days time, everything else having al- ready been done to put the plant in working order.
 It is estimated by the management that nearly forty tons of milling ore can be treated daily by this mill, all of which ore will be stopped from a six foot vein already partly developed for a length of lGO feet. In ease, however, the mill proves to be of insufficient ca pacity to treat the tonnages mined, an additional battery of five stamps will be added, the foundations already built

 SHIPMENTS
Sinking in McGaw Shaft Re sumed and Reaches Be
 low Sixth Level

The Superior & Boston Copper com pany is continuing shipments of ore to the Arizona Commercial smeter at the rate of fifty tons daily. This ore aver ages about per cent copper and also carries small quantity of silver.
 The sinking of the McGaw shaft was resumed February l5, and has now ad- vanced to, point 45 feet below the sixth level The shaft station and the pump station stump on the sixth level of the McGaw have been completed and the concrete foundation for the l,OoO- gallon Prescott pump to be installed there has been finished The pump will be put in place at once. The opening of the ore body from the McGaw shaft at greater depth is expected to give re- suits very favorable to the future Of the Superiors& Boston mine. The sink ing of the Great Eastern winze from a point 30 feet below the sixth level was resumed February IS. The raise being put down from the Great Eastern drift, 100 feet east of the winze, meas ures 45 feet. The raise 75 feet west of the winze is 70 feet high. The ore broken down from these raises forms part of the shelter shipments.
 Drifting east along the iron ledge fault is advancing steadily toward the Great Eastern lode.
 The two 250-horsepower boilers to be added to the present boiler plant have arrived at the mine and will be in stalled immediately. A small hoist for the pump compartment of the McGaw shaft is now being set up. The branch of the Arizona Eastern railroad under construction from Globe has been built to within 2;000 feet of the McGaw shaft.
 Superintendent J. D. Wanvig is em ploying fully one hundred men in min ing and general surface work. Presi dent William G. Rice, who visited the mine last week, left Globe February l4 for Mexico.

The Warrior Development company is shipping about one hundred tons of ore to the Fl Paso shelter daily. The average copper content of this ore is 10 per cent, and it consists almost entirely of chrysocolla mined from the stopes below the second level
 On the 300-foot level the advance work is exploring the ground to the westward and has already opened con siderable extent of ore of shipping grade. One raise from this level also is in ore at the entire upper portion, the average copper content being 9 per cent. The churn drill which has been operating on the Long View claim, near the southern property line of the War. rior ground, is now drilling in its new location farther to the northeast.

WILLIAMS SHAFT IN
 BETTER GROUND
Copper Carbonates Encoun- tered in Quartz and
 Hematite

On the property of the National Min ing Exploration company, located in the Copper Hill district, four miles east of Globe, sinking of the Williams shaft is progressing rapidly, about twenty feet of advance work being done each week. At present the sharI is ooS rect deep and is in a formation consisting chiefly of quartzite showing much hem atite stain. At depth of 55S feet, a thin layer of lime was encountered and the material underlying this carried a higher percentage of hematite than the ground above or below it. Occasional ly, small punches of copper carbonates are encountered in the course of the shaft work.
 Although, at the present stage of de- velopment work, no absolutely depend able estimates of the depth can be made it is reasonable to believe, however, that lode will be opened at a depth of between 600 and $50 feet. Super. intendent H. w. Woodward is employ ing twenty-five men.

DELAY AT C0kD0VA
New Flow of Water Temper airly Holds Up Work at
 Promising Mine

The churn drill prospeetion work at the Cordova Copper company's proper ty, in the Miami district, is being con tinued at a location having been taken by the drill east of the first one. The surface rock and oxidized capping have not yet been drilled through at the new location, but good results may be ex- pected as the No. hole, 400 feet north west, passes through over 300 feet of commercial grade of chalcoeite-bear- ing schist. As this ore was encountered at depth of 120 feet at the former To-, cation, about the same depth is expect ed to reveal ore at the new location. The underground work is being some what delayed by an increase in the wa ter at the 475-foot level, and other than the necessary pumping work only one raise is being driven from the level. This raise, however, is showing a con tinuance of the disseminated chaleocite to distance considerably above that at which the shaft first encountered the mineralized ground.

At the power house site, the foundation for one engine is completed. Grading for the main tramway from the mine to Miami fiat was begun dur ing the past week. This tramway has it's terminal near the power house at the foot of the hill and when finished will afford an easy means of conveying all supplies from the railroad to the mine.
 J. Parke Charming, vice president and consulting engineer of the Miami Cop per company, did not arrive in Globe February l5, as was expected, but will probably reach here in the course of a week or ten days.

NEW GENERATOR ID BE INSTALLED AT
 OLO DOMINION
Will Furnish Power for Two Big Compressors and
 Many Pumps

According to present plans, the 2,300 k. W. generator to be installed in the shelter power house of the Old DOmin- ion mine, will furnish power for one 2,000foot and another 3,000-foot air compressor. This generator will also be relied upon to furnish motive power to the various parts of the mine where it is needed. The hoist at the B shaft and at the Grey shaft will be equipped for electrical operation as soon as the necessary equipment can be secured.
 Eventually wires will be run from the power house to the Buckeye and Big Jennie claims and other outlying ore. producing claims of the United Globe property, adjoining the Old Dominion lands proper. These parts of the Old Dominion property will thus be worked by means of electric power whe nan ar engagements therefor are completed.
 Electricity will be the motive power also for all the pumps except the large steam pump on the 1,200foot level The smaller pumps, located in the various parts of the mine, will pump the water into the large stump prepared for it on the twelfth level, and from this stump, the large steam pump will raise the water to the tunnel, through which it will flow to the surface.
 The Old Dominion smelter, with two furnaces running, is treating between 600 and 700 tons of ore daily. Nearly all this ore is hoisted through the A shaft, where two Wellman-Seaver-M Nor gan hosts, with cylinders fifteen by twenty inches, are in commission The bulk of the ore is being mined below the tenth level. The pumping plant at the Old Dominion is raising about g. 500,000 gallons of water daily General Manager G. H. Dowell is employing be- tween 800 and 900 men.

The new 60-horse power hoist now in use at the shaft of the Superior & Globe Copper company greatly faeili- tates the development work, as the smaller one formerly operated was some what inefficient. With the large hoist, no further difficulty will be experienced in extracting the waste from the 650- foot level crosscuts, and when it is de- sired to resume the shaft sinking, the shaft will be amply large to the depth of 1000 feet.
 The crosscuts northeast and southwest from the 650-foot level of the shaft are each lSO feet in length and continue to be advanced in diabase, with no impor- tant change in appearance. Twenty-Five men are employed under the immediate direction of Pete Wagner.

The chief point of the butter work
err is to get the water out and also
to enable the produce to be made up

But trouble is often caused by the
fact of the butter adhering to the

Illness in that utensil.
The chief cause of this adherence
is that the wood is saturated with the

Again, the temperature OF the milk
separated varies on the farm from day
to day. If cream tests 80 per cent

grees. 1t may test as high as 40 per
cent when separated at 70 degrees.

however. the variation in fat due to
change of temperature will not amount
to more than to per cent.
A third cause of variation is found
in the rate at which the milk flows into
the machine. If less than the regular
quantity flows into the bowl, the ten
dency Is to increase the per. cent of fat
in the cream.
The richness of the milk separated
affects the richness but not the guam
tity of cream. The richnesss of a cows
milk depends on inheritance and can
not be changed permanently by feed.
Small variations are likely to occur
from the other causes suggested. BY
the use of an ordinary Babcock testing
machine and by measuring the sample
of cream into the test bottle with the
same pipette as is used for measuring
milk, any farmer can make test OF
his cream that will satisfy him as to
the accuracy Of the test he receives
from the cream buyer.

quantities in every community every
year. So much is produced that II
the growers tried to sell 1t all directly
for cash, it would not bring enough to
pay for hauling it to market. AS much
is produced forty miles from railroad
as in the community joining the ship
ping station.
The COW will furnish home market
for all the bulky feed which the farmer
can raise, and will take it, delivered
at his yard-paying about as much per
ton as the care Of her owner and his
management will permit. The cream
produced can be sold for cash, and
the farm products will be marketed in
concentrated form. What would have
required a ur-horse team to take to
market can be hauled to market, when
reduced to cream, in one-horse
buggy.
The income from dairy cows will de-
pend upon the quality of the cows
used, and the feed and care given
them.
The cows found in many parts of the
country may not bring large returns
at first, but 1t will pay better to use
them than to have none at all. The
herd can be graded up in a few years
and the quality of the calves raised
from the beef bred cows will partially
compensate for the small returns in
cream,
