ERA OF PROSPERITY
FOR COPPER MINING

The advance In copper shares continues
are responsible for the steadily rising
quotations. 1Scent metal market
means great prosperity for all the pro-
ducing companies and II also means larg-
er dividends. Last years selling prices
yielded an average profit OF about 81
cents pound OH the worlds copper out

duction would be sold at profit OF
cents. giving the producing companies
net earnings OF sli0,ooo,0 900, against s70,-
600 900 In 1911.
There Is another important difference
between now and year ago. Owners OF
copper shares then believed or feared they
had put their money into an overcrowded
industry; that there We're too many copper
mines and that some OF them should dis
continue production and remain idle until
the accumulated surplus was exhausted,
Since then II has been demonstrated quite
concluslvey that there are not mines
enough. No company need curtai it's out
put. There is a ready market for every
pound Of copper that can be produced
The elimination OF uncertainty and
doubt establishes a new basis for the
valuation of copper mining shares Stocks
that have doubled in market value since
last September look cheaper now than
they did then. A few OF us were conf

would return to the copper producing in

BROOKLYN VEIN IS
STILL BIG FACTOR
Ore Coming From Bingham
Body, Which Is Pioneer
of District.

The satisfaction of operating prop
erty In Bingham Is something which the
world at large little appreciates. The ores
as a rule are always IN demand at the
smeltcrs they are faithful in width
length, value and depth, the same ore
bodies providing valuable tonnage today
which were among the first TO be deyel
oped in that district The experience Of
the Bingham Mines company is illustra-
tive of this.
In 1884 tho Brooklyn. Yosemite and
Lead Mine properties were the princi-
pal producers OF the Bingham section,
and the Brooklyn orc body today In the
Dalton and Lark mine Is affordlng the
Bingham Mines company. the present
owner OF the mines mentioned. with a
liberal tonnage of straight smelling ore.
The ore has been opened to a depth OF
1000 feet on its dip and II Is still going
down TO untouched depths. Lead and
copper values make up the principal COM
mercial content OF this tonnage and the
present production Is alonf a very gen.
erous scale.
Under such circumstances it is not
an easy matter to give any news for pub
lication. II is a case Of merely mining
ore, a process that Is devoid OF excite
nent or especial feature. The whole

is shipping steadily and profitably" said

COLORADO HAS BEEN
WORKING CORRECTLY

The present position Of the Colorado
Mining company. with a very limited
quantity of shipping grade ore available
but with large tonnage Of ore In sight
that must be concentrated before It Is
available. Is furnishing some with ma
terfal for criticism. The assertion has
been made. for instance, that the man
agen1ent should have mixed this low
grade ore from time TO time with the
rich rock that was marketed during the
years of prosperity. thereby getting all
the ore TO the smelters instead Of leaving
the lower grade remaining with no means
or realizing on the same.
A prominent mining man OF Salt Lake
said In this regard on Saturday that un-
less there were some almost impossible,
because very peculiar, conditions exist

HEFTY EFFORTS TO

already been contracted for we'll into

about 800 feet from the shaft and with.
In the next 100 or zoo feet this drift will
cut the big east hssure which was
opened upon the $40 level more than a

tanned excellent ore Indications One
promising fissure has already been cut
by the drift on the $50 level, but the
management is anxious to reach the main
big assure. and for that reason is crowd
Ing the work In the drift. The face OF
the DRIFT is now In decomposed lime.
The large body Of copper ore which
has been stopped from the 700 level to a
point 100 feet above In the Mammoth
mine is still holding out very nicely, and
while the present output is about four
carloads each week. Manager Samuel Nc
Intyre expects 10 soon be able to In

ore body with a drift on the 500 level A
report from the mine today indicates
that the 600 drift will connect I'D with
the ore Within the next few days. less
than thirty feet of work remaining at
this time.
The Mammoth Is working the usual
force of miners and the mine has large
amount OF ore exposed, which insures a
heavy tonnage for a long time to come
