slchc Zcitung OF Berlin, last month, as
follows.
Arizona and New Mexico will In 1912
add enormously to the increase of copper
production. mainly from the Miami, Ray
and Chino mines. Also from the Mason
valley of Nevada and from tho new mines
in Chill and Alaska. n large amount of
copper is to be expected. On the other
hand. We may anticipate u great In
crease in the European consumption Of
copper. especially on account of the cleo
triiicatIon of the railroads. which is con-
tcmplated In the very near future. An
other favorable influence for the better

since 1908 no new discoveries of copper

that this ore is much more regular, while
the extent of the per cent rock Is far
more generous than We have ever hoped.
