A score of years ago Arizona was
known as the Land Of Sunshine and
Silver. In those days its people were so
devoted to silver that they refused to
accept statehood unless they be permit
ted to establish the silver standard in
their constitution. Arizona still has the
sunshine and still produces the silver,
but nowadays the silver is a mere by
product obtained from the vestly more
profitable copper mines. In Phoenix,
the capital of the state, the two greatest
interests of the people of Arizona are
indicated by the fact that the newspapers
print on the front page, above the head
ing. in large type, the stage of the water
in the irrigation reservoir and the price
of copper.
Upon irrigation and upon copper is
builded the prosperity of this new state.
but as far as money is concerned the
greater Of these is copper. Arizona pro-
duces more copper than any other state.
the production for 1910 being nearly
3O0,OOO.OOO pounds. valued at more imam
$S7 100000. The silver produced in the
same year was valued at $1,3o5,O0o.
nearly all of which was obtained a by
product from copper ores. approximately
half of the total copper produced came
from the great Warren district surround
ing Bisbee.
Arizona mining camps, now that copper
is queen, are not like the western camps
of the olden days when gold and silver
were the only metals worth looking for,
and when there were Bret Hartes and
Mark Twains to sing Their sagas. The
enormous mechanical equipment Of the
modern copper mine presupposes the
highest physical civilization, and every
mining camp wears diadem of electric
Lights in recognition Of the fact that the
electrical age has brought copper again
to the forefront among metals, as 1t was
aeons ago when culture was born with
the bronze age.

there being two reasons for it. One is
that there are no streets, and conse-
quently no street numbers and the other
is that nobody can be found willing to
work for the low wages at which Uncle
Sam starts in his letter carriers. B1sbee
has the only post office that Is run ex-
clusiveIy by women, as there are no men
willing to work for the wages given post
Office clerks. AS consequence the BIS
bee post office has more lock boxes than
any other town in the country, not eX-
cepting even the largest cities.
Bisbee is the most compact city in the
country, having more business done m
the same area than any other town or
like population, having less street space
for the business done in this area. and
incidentally more saloons in proportion
to the population. than any other town in
the world. 1t is the only western mining
camp of any size that has not now nor
never has had a Chinaman in the town.
the local oriental exclusion ordinance be-
ing none the less efficacious because it is
all unwritten law.
Although the town is not absolutely
owned by corporation. as are some
mining camps, it is dominated by the
largest of its mining companies, the Cop
per Queen Consolidated, and is, in fact,
Copper Queen town.

PROFITS IN SHIPPING
POTATOES MINUS WATER
Department of Agriculture In
curing as to Best Method
of Treatment.

How to transport potatoes long dis
tances without paying freight on the
large amount of water involved ia q
problem that has occupied the Depart
ment of Agriculture for a long time.
There are many uses for potatoes could
they be marketed cheaply enough, and
the western country has facilities for
producing them largely and cheaply.
but the long freight haul to the east
ern market is against the western pro.
Queer
1t is thought the solution of the prob
lem has been found in Germany, where
potatoes are dried before shipment, AS
they are three-fourths water this treat
ment reduces the bulk to about one
fourth.
Methods in Germany.
During the past year, under orders of
the Secretary of Agriculture, an inyes-
tigatlon has been made in Germany Of
the starch and drier potato Industries,
dealing especially with machinery and
methods in use. Germany has potato
drying plants with a combined yearly
capacity of nearly 2J,OO0,OOO bushels, of
potatoes, equal to more than Z per cent
Of the average annual potato crop of
Tic Culteu SldteS 1OT three Years
ending with 1911. The two general
methods of manufacture are known as
the roll system and the drum system.
In the roll system the potatoes are
steamed until softened. and then passed
between large revolving cylinders, which
are heated by steam The potato forms
on the roll in a layer which dries and is
scraped off during the revolution of the
roll. This product has the appearance of
one Of our breakfast foods known as
40 los. nd iS
substitute for the fresh potato in the
household, in addition to being ground
to flour and mixed with other fiours for
bread making and in the making of ce-
real foods.
Merits of the Drum System.
The drum system makes product at
about half the manufacturing cost of the
roll system, and for all purposes other
than human food the drum system is
used. 1t consists, essentially, of an iron
shell about two and one-half feet in di-
ameter and eight times this length.
Through this a heavy cupgent of air is
drawn by means of a fan, and the fire
gases from a stove fed directly into it,
the mixture of heated and cold air being
such as to make a temperature of about
600 degrees Fahrenheit at the entrance.
From cutting machine Clipped pota-
toes are conveyed to the slowly revolving
drum.
The approximate cost of operation, in
Guiding fuel, labor, interest on invest
ment taxes, wear, etc, Is $1.:0 per ton of
potatoes Four tons of potatoes yield one
ton of dried product
In Germany most of the product is used
as feed for all kinds of animals, havin
about the equivalent value of corn for
cattle One of the large manufacturers
of machinery is now trying out a process
for making a material that will be suit
able for making into finished starch.
The machines could be used for drying
sugar beet pulp, beet leaves and other
similar products, as it is in this way the
German beet sugar factories conserve
their pulp. mixing it with q small guam
tity Of mola sses for stock feed, a part of
which is exported to the United States.

DR.. TINDALL'S PREDICTION

Look out for the women in the next
presidential election!
This is the advice to politicians of DIR.
William Tindall, secretary TO the board
of Commissioners of the District, long
time friend of Susan b. Anthony and
one of the vice presidents of the Sta e
Equal Suffrage Association of the Dis
trict.
DIR. Tindall has been compiling sta
tistics about previous elections He has
discovered that six Presidents of the
United States were elected by a smaller
number of votes than those which woman
suffrage states will control in the next
electoral college.
The states now having woman suffrage
are California, Colorado, Montana. Utah,
Washington and Wyoming. with a total
of thirty-seven votes in the electoral
college. Three other states, Kansas, Wis
consin and Oregon, may be brought into
the woman suffrage ranks before next
November which would increase the
electoral college votes to siXty-four.
DR.. Tindalls statistics show that Presi-
dents Adams. Jefferson, John Quincy
Adams, Taylor, Hayes and Cleveland
We're elected by majority of thirty
seven votes or less.

Politicians Surprise Him.

'It is surprising to me- said DR.. Tin
dali, that politicians are not tumbling
over themselves in their eagerness to get
upon the band wagon especially in view
of the fact that the states in which
women vote for President and Vice Presi-
dent will have thirty-seven votes in the
electoral college, and twice that number
in the nominating convention; that they
are all punched in one section of the
country, and therefore have a common
interest, and are likely to be controlled
by their views of that interest. These
states and the number of votes to which
they are entitled are:
California, 13; Colorado, 8; Montana,
4; Utah, 4; Washington, Z; Wyoming, 3.
In Other States.
consin have passed acts submitting the
question to a vote Of the people of tho &c
states, and in Oregon the necessary Pc
tition has been filed for a vote on the
subject in that state. If these three
states should vote in favor of woman
suffrage the vote in the electoral col
lege would be increased by twenty-seven
votes, namely. Kansas, 10; Wisconsin,
II, and Oregon, ), or a total of siXty-four
votes in the college of 531 electors:
"a striking historical fact in this con-
the Presidents were elected by smaller
number of votes than these states con-
troll, and in one instance a iVce President
failed to receive a majority of the votes
of the electoral college, and was elected
by the Senate.
"In 1886 John Adams defeated Thomas
jefferson by two votes.
I'm 1900 Thomas jefferson and Aaron
Burr each received 173 votes. The choice
then devolved upon the House of Repre-
sentatives, where Jefferson received the
votes Of ten states, Burr four, and two
voted blanks
Again the House Elects.
.In 1924 none of the candidates for
President received enough electoral votes to
elect, and the choice again devolved upon
the House of Representatives, when John
Quincy Adams was chosen by the votes
of thirteen states; Andrew Jackson re-
ceived the votes of seven states, and w.
H. Crawford the votes of four states.
I'm 1896 no candidate for Vice President
received a majority of the votes Of the
electoral college, the election devolving
upon the Senate, which elected r. NJ.
Johnson by a vote of :s3 to 49, his OPP
ponent being Francis Gayner. AS the
Vice President would succeed the Presi-
dent in the event of the Presidents
death or Impeachment, the election was
potentially as significant in respect TO the
inheritance of few electoral votes as
an election for President directly.
I'm 1910 Zachary TAYLOR defeated Lewis
Cass by just thirty-siX votes
I'm 1876 Rutherford b. Hayes defeated
Samuel J. Tilden by one vote.
.In 1894 Grover Cleveland defeated
James G. Blaine by just thirty-seven
votes.

Queen and the Calumet and Arizona
smelters, having monthly output of A.
600 600 pounds Of copper smelted from the
ores of the Bisbee-Warren district Doug
las is built on the plains. surrounded by
a wide expanse of level country made
fertile by pump irrigation and going
long way toward supplying the demand
for food Of the 5000 people who live in
Douglas and most of whom gain their
livelihood from copper. Although it is
one Of the busiest and most prosperous
towns in the new state, Douglas is a mere
baby in age. being only ten years old.
The eldest copper district in the south
west centers around Clifton, Morenci and
Metcalf, near the eastern boundary line
of the state. The first copper mine in
Arizona was here, producing free smelt-
ing ore that was readily reduced in crude
adobe furnaces by charcoal fuel. The
first railroad in Arizona was "baby-
gauge road connecting this old Long
fellow mine with the furnaces at Clifton.
Nowadays little free ore is found. and
that taken out requires primary reduc-
ton in concentrators. Clifton is built
along the San Francisco river and Chase
creek, and the shelters and concentrators
are in the heart Of the town. The ore
railroads to Metcalf, seven miles north.
run through picturesque mountains not
surpassed in the whole world for scenic
effects. Copper mining was begun here
when all material had to be hauled over
land from La Junta, Col, and in days
when every pack train was subject to at
tack of savage Indians.
A mile and half from Clifton, as the
raven flies. but more than three miles by
road, is the town of Morenci. having a
population of 5000 people. 1t is owned
absolutely by the Phelps-DOdge interests
and the Arizona Copper Company, a
Scotch concern. The companies lease
ground to their employees for the erec-
ton of homes, charging dollar a
year ground rent and a dollar month
for sanitary services. This town furnishes
the most conspicuous example of enforced
sanitation Ia the United States, sewerage
connections being compulsory. The COM
panies have built beautiful hotel, lux
urious clubhouse, two schoOlhouses, and
in many other ways have endeavored to
improve the sociological conditions of
the mining camp by a sort of plutocratic
socialism. 1t is the unanimous verdict Of
all visitors that the experiments have
proved to be most successful.
