NEVADA DOUGLAS IS

Task of Preparing the Mine for
Production Opens I'm
known Tonnage.

The Mason or Yerington mining district
of Nevada Is becoming known as the
camp OF surprises. owing to the more eX-
tensive tonnage OF ores now being
brought to view than was relied upon
originally. 1t is well known how the Ma
son Valley company has increased Its
available resources by finding ore where
II had never been expected. and now the
Nevada Douglas Copper company is meet
Ing with the same experience.
Superintendent ). S. Arentz has re-
ported to the Salt Lake office OF the
company that while cutting out the
slopes on the 100 level to get that part
Of the mine in condition for ultimate
production. he bad developed at least
100000 worth Of copper carbonates which
were not known to exist heretofore. As
this and the various other levels TO depth
are prepared in like manner for STOPPING,
the same condition doubtless will be
found In this weIl-known property
This work Is being confined largely 10

bered that IL was from the Ludwig that

Arentz reports that the railroad line
from Hudson to the Nevada Douglas ore
bins Is being sent forward quickly, the
grading being set up out OF Hudson nt a
lively rate.

consummated for his clients.
Mill canyon. located about fifteen miles

says. OF developing into one of the rich

Thomas OF San Francisco learned OF the
discoveries OF an old prospector who had
been gopherlnG about the country for
long time. Thomas became interest ed
and did considerable prospecting. He
got excellent returns on the rock and
determined to his own satisfaction that
proposition could be opened.
Prospects Are Good.
Thomas set about interesting capital
and Kaufman was so impressed with
the prospects that he made arrange
ments with his clients 10 tie the ground

public the names OF the men behind him
at this time. but assurance is given
that they are reliable and wealthy men.

The characteristic dixie usually shows

COPPER QUEEN LOW
COST OF PRODUCTION
Company Made Copper Last
Year for Six and One Half
Gents a Pound.

With copper production cost OF only
SIS cents per pound the Copper Queen
company OF Arizona, Phclps-Dodge
proposition, deserves tho undisputed
right 10 a seat In the front ranks OF low
cost producers of the country. This cost
was better than tho 1909 showing, when
~ cents was tine cost price per pound
During 1910 the company produced H.
92S357 pounds OF copper, against 81
i29 7l9 pounds in 1909 At first blush
this decrease would be taken as evidence
Of the company lining up with the cur.
tailment policy. but the tonnage treated
during 1910 was 5Sa.900. against aG6,5iS
tons the year before The pounds OF
copper recovered per ton IN 1910 totaled
1872 while for 1909 The recovery was li6
pounds. The company. therefore, Is
handling lower grade ore than during
1909
The Phelps-Dodge annual report shows
these interests produced total OF 1885,
sos $50 pounds of copper during 1910, OF
which 16.SSS,0I pounds wero from its
own properties. the balance being derived
from the handling Of custom ores. The

were as follows: Copper Queen, Si,f23.-

 There is a mineral belt in the Ozark mountains that runs through Polk, Seyier and Howard counties, which has scarcely been touched Tn the way of developing mines. 1nere are two mines, however, near Gilman On the Kansas City Southern railroad in Sevier county. The Bella mine six and one half miles southwest Of GIlham, is an old mine, which was worked by Confederates during the Civil war, but which was later owned Il by the North American Ore and Metal Company. This mine has been leas ed to Oswald, Wayne and Dnpree Min ing Company. which has purchased complete plant equipment, and will begin operating the mine in the neal future.
 "The Davis mine is on Rolling Fork river, a tributary of the Red. tiye miles west of Gillham and the compa l ny which controlls it has purchased new machinery to equip this mine fol operation. About s2S,oOO worth of or' has already been taken from thi' mine. beginning four feet below tn' surface, and the company has in
