Grand total .54,076,35
Making further calculation in de.
tail of the company's management
and operation, President Eceles says:
THE lower production for the
month of September compared with
the previous months of this quarter
was due in part to the treating OF
considerable ore from the Liberty pit
which owing to its hardness reduced
the tonnage per mill section, and
further to the unsettled condition of
labor in the latter part of September
previous to the strike referred to
more fully herein.
There was milled during the
quarter 1874 tons of Nevada
Consolidated ore. averaging LA per
cent copper, of which 1906 tons
were from the pits and 60,729 tons
from the Veteran mine.
The net credit to undivided pro-
fits amounted to $~79S,135.35 after
payment of the twelfth quarterly
dividend and after charging off of
1894, 901.3S for ore extinguishment
and the further sun of 1898, 295.90
paid the Steptoe company for de-
probation.
Actual stripping amounted to
PSI ,0S1.60, of which $115, 61S.33
was charged to operating cost, bal
ance deferred.
There has been a material In
crease of cash on hand due to the
profits from marketing not only as
much copper as was produced during
the quarter, but also to a reduction
of $140,0 600 In amount of copper in
transit, and to the taking over OF
cash from the subsidiary companies,
the Steptoe Valley Smelling and Min
ing company and Nevada Northern
ompany as shown under increased
liabilities. II this general financial
condition prevails at the next divi-
dend declaration date, IN extra divi-
dend will be declared of as much cash
as is not needed for the proper con-
duct of the business.

ADVOCATES QUARANTINE LAW

The Nevada stockman are talking
for new Legislation providing pro-
lection from diseases for the stock
of the state. While the lawmakers
are busy on this proposition, they
should pass a general quarantine
law that will include every class of
produce. The Utah alfalfa weevil is
dangerously close to our farms and
the states chief executive should be
empowered to declare a quarantine
on other states whenever the stu
alton demands.-Churchill County

NEVADA CONS
RECORD IN 1912
INDICATIONS THAT OUTPUT OF
THE COMING YEAR WILL BE
LARGEST IN THE PROPERrY's
HISTORY.

WIN a toldi plOuuCllOH Vi dppTOAl-
mately 10000, 600 pounds of copper
o the fiscal year ending December
i, 1912, the Nevada Consolidated
Copper company is entering the new
year with the brightest prospects
that have characterized its career,
says a writer in the Salt Lake
Sunday Tribune.
1t is a noteworthy fact that not
outstanding the labor troubles
which for a time in the fall of 1912
tended to hamper the operations of
the company, the standing of the cor
poration in financial and Industrial
circles remained unimpared. FL
nanciers and all others hav-
ing to do with industrial activities
in the United States we're aware of
the enormous available ore bodies in
the mines. and they recognized the
great value of the operating equip
ment, together with the sturdy
character of the men managing the
big property. On this account there
was no fear entertained as to the out
come of the labor trouble, and the
utmost confidence was felt that
eventually the extensive property
would again be made to yield splen-
did dividends. Results to date have
iugtifaH this nVtipafcnn
AS the year 1913 comes in, the
condition of the property and of its
ground and operating agencies is the
very best, and the twelve months
just being entered upon will doubt
less end with the largest output in
the history of the property.
Everywhere in the land the stock
OF the company is held in highest re-
gard as a security of the best order,
backgrounded as it Is by a success
full career to date and by demon
strated existence of ore bodies of
such enormous extent as 10 insure
profitable working for many years to
come.
On October 80, 1912, President
S. w. Eceles Used his thirteenth
quarterly report to the stockholders
of the company, in which he gives a
table of copper production for the
first three quarters of the year 1912
as follows.

Outlook for 1913.

There will be no e large pro-
ducing mines added during 1913.
Several of those that began produe-
ton in 1911 and 1912 will. however,
turn out larger quantities than In
1912. At the price for copper pre-
yailing during the latter part of 1912
the industry is highly profitable. and
II the output can be marketed and
the price maintained the producers
will be II a position to make a still
further large increase In 1918.
