LARGE PLANT NEAR
CUTTER SOON IN
OPERATION
Concentrating Mill in CabaIIo
Mountains Is Now Concen-
trating Hundreds of Tons Of
Ore for Treatment.

The discovery of large bodies OF
tains, the subsequent development of
the mines, the sinking of deep shafts
the erection of large capacity con-
centrating mill, and finally the con-
struction of a large oxide plant a
short distance from cutter has re-
snite,i III New Mexico being brought
TO the front recently as the
only part Of the United States, or of
North America, in fact, in which van
adium is found in commercial guam
titles At the present time this ter
ritory is the greatest producer of van
adium in the country, and is so recog-
nized by the standard mineral ana
technical papers and magazine writ
ers. Vanadium was discovered last
month in Colorado, and considerable
excitement resulted from the discov-
cry, which, however, died down when
il became known that the ore was
not found in sufficient quantities to
Justify the erection of either con-
centrator or a refining plant.
The Vanadium Mines company,
which owns the yanadium mines in
the Caballo mountains, realizing that
the demand for vanadium is greater
than the supply at the present time
ana Ildt IHG utilldllQ Will ne even
greater in the very near future, has
undertaken the development of their
properties on such an extensive scale
as to. surprise the natives and to in
dicate in a very substantial manner
the great faith they have in the worth
Of their ore.
A. w. Bonitz, vice-president and
general manager. and Il. NJ. Bennett,
secretary of the Vanadium Mines
company, were in Albuquerque yes
terday and left for Cutter last night,
where they have spent several days
looking over the construction of the
oxide plant, which is now rapidly
nearing completion. Mr.. Bonitz and
Mr. Bennett are from Pittsburg, Pa

open market, sold it at a sharp ad-
vance and turned over every cent Of
the profit to be applied on the pur-
chase of the 60 feet which they re-
tained as the present site of their ex-
cellent building.
Thus it happened that with only
$1,000 in their treasury, The
Young Women's Christian Association
bought, at 500 per front foot, Hill
street property which in three years
time has increased in value to almost
three times the purchase price.
The ladies think that they. cannot
too strongly emphasize the idea that
the giving Of this sum by the public
is but q grateful acknowledgment Of
former Senator Clarks recent gift Of
$150000 to the association for a
woman's dormitory on Iona drive, to
be known as the Mary Andrews Clark
Memorial Home. If one man could
give so much wealth to supply the
single deficiency in this great work.
the ladies feel that he public at largo
can very wei afford to meet his gem
erosity with g gift one-third as large.
This Day Allotted.
This is the last day which the la
dies have allotted to themselves as
the time in which they hope to raise
the desired amount. OF course, it
will not be possible for one hundred
women to interview anything like all
of the business men of the city, nor
will they have time to approach all
of those business men. who are
known to be friendly to the associa-
tion and who would perhaps be will
ing to contribute something to its
present need. For this reason Miss
latham would greatly appreciate 1t.
If those who are overlooked will
either telephone their subscriptions
to the association or will bring them
to the building in person.

SENATOR CIARK'S GIFT TO
Y. w. G. a IS $50. 600


The Los Angeles Times has the fol-
lowing regarding the Y. w. c. a.
movement in the coast city:
For q Y. w. G. A. debt free.
This smiling legend flashes in cheer
full red from the buttons to be worn
today by one hundred women who
will each endeavor to secure at least
one subscription of S1O0 to be APP
piled on the $4,000 Indebtedness
which has overshadowed the Young
Womens Christian Association since
it's completion in June, 1908.
In reality, this debt has not been
shadow, for the managing board
and the officers of the association
have never permitted the obligation
to rest as a burden upon the shoul-
ders Of the more than 5000 mem
bers, nor have they permitted the
fact of their Indebtedness to intrude
itself into the joy or the usefulness of
the work They understood that il
would take something from the hap
piness Of the membership and from
the pleasure of the social gatherings
if their debt was continually an
nounced as something which kept the
a association from freedom and from
its highest use.
Having waited until they thought
an opportune time had come to place
the association debt free, the officers
are now approaching the public in
confidence and they anticipate a gen
erous response. It is their nope that
between 4:3O and s O'Clock this al
ternoon the one hundred workers who
enter the Los Angeles field will not
only report that they have each Sc
cured one 500 subscription, but that
they will hear the good news that the
business men of Los Angeles and the
walthy women of the city nave hited
the last dollar OF the debt.
Perhaps their strongest argument
in soliciting subscriptions for this
cause is that their association has
made good. In modern days a great
deal is said about the progressive
and the expansive business man, put
the fact is sometimes overlooked thal
the woman of broad vision ana OF
fine energy often sees Just as tar
ahead in the business world. and Is
inst as quick to recognize and seize
opportunities as any man.

effect that many prospectors have
