SAYS IT IS HARD WORK TO BE
 A STEPMOTHER.

In the November Woman's Home Companion, Anne Bryan Mccall con tribuets a page entitled People Have Known" On this page she reproduces the following letter from a young stepmother who says that the first wife's people have tried and succeeded in turning the chil- dren. against her.
 1t takes all the patience in the world, 1 think, to be a stepmother. I wonder if there is any task so thankless. You do your best, you yearn and long and love with your whole heart and what you get in re- turn is nothing but mistrust. But
 that is all very personal and cow ardly of me. The only importan1 point is this, that some day-somt 1 day I shal be able to help and serve ' these little people. That is the only thing that counts in the whole hard struggle. And whereas at first used to think how I had been mis- understood and mistrusted, now each night 1 just pray for them and for myself Aahd - ask that~A may never ! hinder, only aways help them.'

rOADs AND THE BOIL WEEVIL

The loWly and somewhat loathsOme toad frog is the deadliest enemy of the Mexican boil weevil, according to
 Marshal Montgomery, a prominent planter of SunflOwer county. So con f'dent is his belief that the toad frog is natures remedy for the an initiation of the greatesst of all cot ton crop pests that MT. Montgomery has established a toad frog farm in connection with his plantation, and
 next year he hopes to be able to supply other delta planters with toads in sufficient quantities to com lat the weeviI. Experiments recent lyf on the Montgomery plantation
 show that an ordinary toad will cap tuEe and consume more than two
 hundred boil weeVils in a single day,
 which is more than the most lynx eyed negro engaged in picking the insects from cotton plants is able to lind within the same period. The toad does not confine his operations t. the lower branches of the cotton I iant. He will leap nimbly to the topmOst branches of the tallest cotton
 grown in the delta, some of which is higher than a mans head on horse back, in quest of the pestiferOus in sects Thus it appears that the plague that pestered Pharaoh in the land of Egypt may become the sal Vation of the south in the cultivation of it's greatest crop.

This property, on the Hassayampa above Wickenburg, has again entered
 the operating list after laying idle
 for some time. The property was
 originally owned by sam Powell of the brindle steer fame, but is nOW
 incorporated and known by the above title, by company of capitalists from London, Canada. The ore body is a very large one and of eX- cellent and promising features but sufficient work has not been accom- plished to determine it's future pos abilities. However, the present in dicatiOns are that the property will be eneregeticalIy and extensively de- veloped to demonstrate it's value and extent. At present the workings are in oxidized ground but new cable 1000 feet in length has been pur- chased and it is stated the shaft will be continued to this depth.

A Year Old

"A year Old
 Ii is just a year last Sunday since the mining columns in the Sunday Republican made their first appear ance Time seems to fly rapidly But during that period we have en- deavOred to cover a wide diversity of subjects in connection with mining and have tried to make them as in teresting as possible That they have been so to a great many readers is borne out by the numerous letters of appreciation from many quarters not only from the United States but Europe as we'll And the innumer- able inquiries on every possible sub ject in connection with mining is proof evident that the columns have been widely read. To all these in quiries I have answered to the best of my knowledge. During the year a great deal of experience has been gained and really a wider knowledge has been gained as to what the gen eral reader is interested in. had certain aims s and ideas formulated before starting the weekly notes and these were developed from week to week. Then I included accounts of several things in which I was in doubt as to the interest that would be aroused in the general reader. In three of these instances, and each were rather lengthy articles, they were very widely copied and re- feRred to and commented upon, showing wide appreciation of everything in connection with min ing, covering the rarer elements and the cOmmoner metals and nOn-me- taIic substances. The smelling, mill ing and general reduction of ores and mining developments generally The personal consultations I have had have been entirely too numer- ous to mention and they have cover ed everything from dry washers to divorce proceedings.
 The years work has passed with great interest and has very decidedly shown that the mining columns are a necessity, because we are really a mining community and are centereo in the midst of a wonderful and pro- ductive mining region and there is ample proof of it's remaining so and keeping up its standard for many years to come. The columns are al ways open to suggestions and all mining news of a legitimate an6 bonafide nature. If any of the othel kind inserts itself, it will be either by chance or lack of knowledge. only hope the department will be continued whether I have any per-

Nearly Fatal Accident

Dave <Caire. an'~oEd time miner and owner of the Mountain View gold claims four miles from Goddard Sta tion on the Black Canyon, came very near firing his final shot last week. Dave, in addition to the above claims, also owns eight copper claims near the Kay Copper company's ground on the Black Canyon. It was on these claims that he was working his assessment, and was engaged driving a tunnel. cross cut ting the formation. He had put several holes in the face and lit the fuse and went out to the mouth to await the blast He counted the shots and there was one hole short so he waited half an hour and again entered the workings and was cau- tious on approaching the breast and was within a few feet when the missed hole went off The flying splinters of rock buried themselves in his face and all over his body. He was brought to Phoenix and placed under pr. Craig. who has been picking pieces of the geological formation out of his hide for the last week. Dave has recovered his eye sight very rapidly, but it will be some time and with the exercise of great care before he recovers his normal vision. However, Dave wasn't born to be blown up, as this latest accident is only one of a number he has experienced during his life time as miner And if he cannot be blown up he can't be hung in Arizona now, however hard he tries, so the best alternative for Dave is to sell his claim at a big figure and live a happy retired and cOntented life

Obituary

It is with deep regret that we mo- ticed last week in the press dis patches of the sudden death in New York of Louis Weston Powell, well known in Arizona as Colonel Powell. He was born 47 years ago in New Madrid, Miss, and was educated in the public school finishing his educa- tion at Washington & Lee Uni Versity. Lexington, Va. He com menced his mining career in the iron ore regions in the Gogelic range, upper Wisconsin and soon became manager of the mines, with head quarters at Duluth and his rise to prominence was rapid. He was at one time one of the officials of the United States Steel corporation and resigned that position to become gen eral manager of the Calumet & Ari- zona interests at Bisbee, and retired on the entry of John Greenway to that position.
 Colonel Powell was a kindly affab1e man and liked by all who knew him. He had host of personal friends He was a Mason and a Shriner and also a member of the Elks. He leaves a widow and five children tC mourn his loss. His last visit to Phoenix was only few weeks ago

MINING DIVIDENDS.
Total for Nine Months to September
 30 Broke All Records.

In no other nine months period in the history of American mining and metallurgy, says the Mining and En- gineering World, have mines and works shown as large dividend dis bursements as those in the period just ended. And this, too, despite the general belief that the present year has not been a profitable one as relating to mining.
 When 146 companies. looking to the operations of mines for their profits, can pay in nine months SIS, TIP ,652, it would seem that there has been little reason for the pessi- mism prevailing. Compared with the same period in 1912 there is shown an increase in the amount of diVi- dends paid of $12.972.1O9, and with 1911 an increase of 17,993,232.

A New Dry Process for Extraction O Values


 James NJ McClane, metallurgical engineer, was in Phoenix during last week for the purpose of presenting centrator, whick is called the S s. X s. Dry Process and a great many claims are made for it. A demonstrating mill has already been erected in Denver and the claims are that it is giving most satisfactory results, and it would surely be a wonderful economy in a dry coun- try and it's results are obtained two or three times more economically than the wet process. A table of results of five constituents shows a very efficient separation of the crude ore, lead, iron, zinc and tails. Some of the following claims are made for the process:
 Two and one-half to three times the capacity of wet tables on any material. Collection of all dust. Average saving from twenty to forty per cent higher than wet tables. Treat successfully mineral combina- tions that cannot be treated wet. Especially serviceable where no water build, equip and operate than wet mills The company is expecting to 1 take over properties and install l plants if satisfactory arrangements can be made with the owners. should be pleased to inform owners i of prospects of this company's ad- dress if they think their ore is aminable to this process.

I believe it would re- suit in a handsome return and af- ford an immeasurabIe amount of benefit to the state if the whole could be massed in some permanent building in the city to remain there, until the coming round of each years fair The good and benefit that would accrue, would repay many times over the cost of removal to and fro. This is a suggestion that unquestionably many would like to see adopted. The interest in the pro- duction of the mines would continue the year round and will undoubtedly be added to. from syear, to year. Too few visitors have a-chance to realize what an important mining state we are but such an exhibit would go a long way of convincing them to say the least. Let us have the exhibit on view all the year round in our city.

Dr. George Otis Smith on Revision
 of Mininq Laws.

Dr. George Otis Smith, director Of the United States geological survey, Washington, on the same date said: The first essential of mining land legislation should be that no proVi- sions in the law should place any unnecessary charge burden on the operator" He favored a leasing law, rather than the present method of selling government coal lands, at an appraised valuation. Any scheme of selling undeveloped resources in wolves uncertainties in values. he added Leasing holds pr. Smith, has the advantage over permanent alienation that it allows the govern ment to exercise continued control of the public interest

 The copper properties. 34 m num- Der, have had a particularly satis- factory nine months period, despite the strike in the Lake Superior re- zion, for dividends were paid total ing $38,270115. This shows an in crease over the same period in 1912 of $9,449,6S7. Since incorporation these companies have divided among shareholders, $42O, 434064
