Some weeks ago B. Bianchi, Mason
Valley potato raiser, had carload of
potatoes inspected by the horticultural
representative of California for eel
worms. The potatoes were found to be
all right, but it was some few days be-
fore the potatoes were shipped to Sacra-
mento. When they arrived there BIZ
anchi was notified by wire by the COM
mission house that the potatoes were
frozen. and asked what disposition should
be made of them. He did not answer
but took the train for Sacramento. Ar
irving there he found the carload of
spuds, and instead of being frozen they
were so warm that they had started to
sprout. There was no eel worm in
them, they were not frozen, and the
only thing wrong with them was a few
sprouts that it would have taken few
hours to rub off. He sold the spuds to
other parties, who were mighty glad to
get them. This is another instance ol
how California people love to do bust
ness with Nevadans.

COPPER SELLING
INTO THE FUTURE
Nearly All March Production
Already Booked and Sell
ing April Now

Copper on Monday of this week was
reported to be selling at AZ cents per
pound, and there is not cloud III the
metal skv TO indicate that the end is yet
in sight. The sustained upward move
ment proves that there is little fear in
the consumers ranks that production is
to be increased beyond requirements,
and the following eastern discussion of
the production during the new year is
apropos in this connections:
In addition to the new production
coming forward from the porphyries i'll
1912, some properties which have been
curtailing production are making plans
to increase the production of copper as
means to prevent what many people i'll
the trade are afraid of-a runaway mar
ket in the metal.
With the January and February pro-
duction of copper already sold, nearly
three quarters of the March production
booked, and already good part of the
April production, it is very appurent
that during the next few months there
will be a large reduction i'll American
stocks at least 50, 900. 900 pounds. which
would reduce American stocks to 40, ooo.-
OOO pounds, and such condition might
easily result in runaway metal market,
Increased production is about the only
weapon with which to meet such a con
dition, and already some of the compa-
pies are preparing to increase their out
mt. Probably 10000, 900 per month OF
copper could be produced in this coun-
try. The Ama,gamated can increase
4 600 900 pounds per month; Phelps
Dodge properties, 1000 900 ponnds'
Greene Cananeas, 1000, 600 pounds per
month. and with CRANKY resuming at
the rate of 2, 2,O00, 600 pounds and ,DO,-
600 Mound increase in miscellaneous pro-
duct,on. there could be 1000, 600
nound increase to meet steadily IN
creasing consumption both IN this coun-
try and abroad.
ANY new production that would now
come on the market, however, would
take three months to get through the re-
6neries, so that increased production at
this time is simply taking out an insur-
ance policy
rifteen-cent copper is an early proba-
bilitV.

PINCH0T AFTER
MONO COMPANY
Former Chief Forester Says
Corporation is Grabbing
Power Sight

A Washington dispatch OF January 7,
SAYS:
Clifford Pinchot, former Chief Forester
and President of the National Conserva.
ton Association. today issued a state
ment urging the defeat in Congress of a
bill introduced by Representative Raker,
of California, granting a water-p pipe line
right of way through the Mono national
forest to the Hydro Electric Company of
California.
Mr. Pinchot declares that while the
money value involved is insignificant,
the bill is dangerous as directly in the
interest of water power grabbers, and
would establish the right of water power
companies generally TO use national for
est lands in spite of the government and
the courts.
Without government permission, Mr..
Pinchot says, the company dug "a ditch
and began water-pipe line $500 feet
long through Mono forest. and work
was stopped by a government injunction.
The company then applied to the De
partment of Agriculture for a permit to
lay the line, and the department per
mitted the work to go forward while the
terms of the permit were being prepared
One of the stipulations was that the
company pay S675 year for the use of
the right of way and that the permit
would be revocable The company re-
fused to agree to the permit and the
temporary permission was revoked.

YERINGTON COPPER
WILL SOON PRODUCE
Arrangements Being Made for
Big Development of
Property

Capt. Duncan MacVichie, General
Manager of the New Yerington Copper
Company, was an arrival from Salt Lake
tins week, and has been making arrange
lnents for extensive development on the
property. The Yerington Copper ground
is located on the east side OF the Yeriup
ton district and has been developed to
some extent already by shaft some 450
ieet i'll depth and some drifting and
crosscutting. The property is now
equipped with fine gasoline hosting
plant and a pump station on the flat
which furnishes a good supply OF splen-
did water. There are also bunk houses.
blacksmith shop and boarding house on
the property and it will take but little
work to get everything in readiness for
operations 1t is the intention OF Mr..
MacViche to drop the shaft down an
other 100 feet, and possibly deeper, and
run cross-cuts on the go and 432. foot
levels and new cross cut will be run
on the $50 level. making three levels
from which ore can be extracted for
shipment.
Considerable has been said in our col
umns about this property and ii is de.
serving OF attention. Some of the rich
est ore in the district has been opened
up in this property. and there is consid-
erable OF it in sight which can be shipped
to the smelter in very short order now.
As before stated this company has re.
Gently been reorganized and has ample
funds in the treasury to do the amount
Of work that has been cut out by the
new management. Report has it that
ID. {. Jackling, OF the Utah Copper. has
taken a large interest in the property.
However thfs may be. the company is
fortunate in securing such a man as Mr..
MacVichie to manage its affairs and the
public may look for the Yerington Cop
per to be a good. sized producer in no
great length of time.

UNION COPPER co.
NOW VERY BUSY
New and Big Machinery Now
Being Installed for De-
velopment Work

The Union Copper COMPANY. which is
now operating the old Kennedy Consoli-
dated copper property in the Buckskin
section of this district, is doing some
machinery, one carload of brick, one
carload of lumber and one carload of
three-inch pipe are being unloaded at
Wabuska and hauled to the property.
The machinery consists of two 70-horse
power boilers, one 35-horse power fric-
ton steam hoist, one Gould station
pump, one No. Cameron sinking
pumps, cars. caps, T.rails etc. Oil is to
be used for fuel and the company is in
stalling a 5000 gallon oil tank at the
mine and a | 800 gallon tank at the
Ludwig, the end of the Copper Belt rail-
road, from which point the oil will be
hauled to the mine, distance of or Z
miles, BY wagon. A frame building 2Sx
AZ will cover the boilers and hoist at the
mine, and the foundation will be made
of concrete and the boilers will be set in
brick and arched. A new boarding and
bunk house, large enough to accommo-
date $50 men is being built and an s.
room cottage for the Manager and Su-
perintendent. The company has a fine
well of pure water a short distance from
the works and pipeline will be laid
from this well to the mine, and gaso-
line driven pump installed to pump the
water from the we'll to $4,000 gallon
tank at the mine This will insure a
good supply of water at the mine for all
purposes. The entire equipment is new
and of the best make, and when in
stalled the company will have as COM
plete and efficient plant as there is in
the district.
The Union Copper Company is Los
Angeles concern and p J. STACEY is the
Manager and Superintendent. He was
formerly with the Chino Company, of
New Mexico. and later with the Nevada
Calumet, in this district. and is an ex-
perienced man in handling copper prop
critics.
| So much has been said about the prop
erty that it is not necessary to repeat.
But it may be we'll to state that this is
the first time ANYBODY has gone to work
to develop it Systematically. 1t has the
ear marks of making big one, and
with the equipment being put in to han
die the water so that deep work can be
done, it will no doubt respond to the
perfect satisfaction of the company.
